Fantastic rental experience from start to finish. Jeremy was great with the handover and the boat was exactly as described, and in great condition (and cleaned between the 2 days of my rental!). My family had a great time over the 2 days we had the boat and we will be renting again next year!

Unforgettable birthday on the water! We had the most amazing boat day with our wonderful skipper Jean-Pierre. He was warm, professional, and went above and beyond to make my birthday special — even surprising me with complimentary wine and a birthday cake! The views were breathtaking, and his knowledge of the area made the day even more memorable, taking us to beautiful bays and underwater caves. JP has everything you need on board, including paddle boards, snorkel gear and more. Such a lovely man — we can’t thank or recommend him enough! We are already planning our next trip with Jean - Pierre.

We booked a trip with Pascal to celebrate our son’s birthday and we enjoyed the perfect day. Pascal is very friendly and took us to some beautiful locations for lunch, snorkelling and swimming in a bay with amazing clear blue water. Pascal is a great host with a lovely boat and I would highly recommend him.

JP was a great captain, took us for a half day to some beautiful coves and lead some diving with snorkels into some wonderful caves. He was really good with the children who were running riot 4 under 4 year olds and offered a chilled bottle of rose to boot.

Lionel and his team are incredible. There is no other word. There were three of us on board mid 30’s blokes who really like to party hard. We had Lionel as cpt, anya as steward and Sandra for the last couple of days. They all kept up with our pace of demands, buying food, drinks, pharmacy supplies, changing beds, tidying and making meals for us. Lionel often would shuttle us to the land in the tender 2/3 times a day and back again sometimes at 5am. Never a complaint, only a beaming smile and laugh about how happy he was to help. M He picked the best swim spots, would take the initiative to drive to our next spot whilst we slept. Sometimes meaning he got up at 3am to ensure we woke up to breakfast in the new town. We would often go swimming late at night to have him lower the bathing platform and bring out towels for us. Simply put lionel is the best host/ captain we have had and it made our holiday the best we have had. And we have chartered a lot of boats. We will back again!
