Review Summary
People usually say this private speedboat charter delivers an exceptional, personalized island experience with outstanding crew service and excellent value. Travelers consistently praise the professional captains and guides—particularly crew members like Tony, Mario, Lulu, and Mona—for their knowledge, attentiveness, and ability to navigate crowds by finding quieter beaches and snorkeling spots. The included lunch is frequently highlighted as surprisingly delicious, served at beautiful beachfront locations with scenic views. Common positive themes include seamless hotel pickup and drop-off, well-organized itineraries, pristine snorkeling opportunities, beautiful scenery, and plenty of swimming time. The main drawback mentioned is that despite being private, popular island areas can still be crowded with tour boats, though having a private vessel significantly reduces the experience of being in large groups. A few travelers note the speedboat ride is bumpy, which is expected but worth mentioning for those prone to seasickness.
