Very polite and extremely helpful staff who giving us some great recommendations. Quick replies on WhatsApp. The boat was nice too. Good sound system, very decent sundeck. Totally recommend this instead of one of those crowded boats!

We had a great time. The captain and the assistant were super helpful. The trip was wonderful. We are a family of 4, 2 adults and 2 little girls 5 and 7 years old. Thanks to being on this private boat, we were among the first to arrive at the Oceanario and swim with the dolphins before the crowds arrived. Then we went snorkeling with the assistant. Finally, we spent a few hours at Paue beach club. The captain is great at navigating the rough waters on the way back and reducing the impact. They girls even fell asleep for the last 20 mins of the boat ride! Highly recommend them!

We loved it. Our family of 5 (2 adults and three children in age 7, 5 and 4) rented this private boat to Rosario islands. We got to snorkel, brought our snack to the boat and had a lunch. Then the captain took us to Majagua hotel that we booked upfront to spend a day at. It is a private beach where tou can eat in a restoraunt and sunbath. After that the captain took us to another small cute island where we could swim and fly our drone. While driving to rosario island our middle child vomited because of the waves and the crew helped us clean up. They had snorkel gear also. We enjoyed having a private boat and enjoying the islands in our pace. Definitely woudl recommend.
