STAY AWAY !! THE SKIPPER WILL LIRE WITH A DISCOUNT AND SCAM YOU LATER. WE BOOKED THE CATAMARAN FOR AN ENTIRE DAY . UPON REQUESTING TO SAIL, HE LIED TO US ABOUT NOT HAVING THE CORRECT LICENSE. AFTER THE TRIP THE CUSTOMER SUPPORT IS HELPLESS AND USELESS. GENERIC ROUTES, BELOW THE PAR SERVICE AND A SKIPPER WHO WON'T LET YOU ENJOY A DAY AT THE SEA. THERE IS A REASON WHY HE HAS SO MANY BAD REVIEWS HIS NAME IS MARCUS , STAY AWAY. CONSIDER SAM BOAT

Would never rent again – terrible experience, not kid-friendly, and very unwelcoming! From the moment we arrived, we were shocked by the restrictions. We were told we could not use the kitchen or access the indoor areas of the yacht, only the outside deck. This was never mentioned before booking. We travel frequently and rent yachts around the world, and this has never happened to us. We had planned to let our 2.5-year-old son nap inside one of the cabins, but we were not allowed. Even to wash fruit or vegetables, we had to ask the crew, and every request came with complaints about how “precious” the water was, as if we were asking a huge favor instead of paying guests. The rules were excessive: no slightly louder music, our son couldn’t touch lockers or tablecloths, and even when we went to the net, he was told he must sit still and not jump. At lunch, when my son touched a window with his small hands, the captain shouted at both him and my husband, claiming the windows had just been cleaned. This was completely unreasonable, especially since we had booked and paid for the entire yacht—including cleaning. The worst incident happened when my son tried to enter the cabin simply to use the toilet. The captain’s assistant shouted at him, pulled him by the arm, and physically pushed him outside. This behavior was completely unacceptable, disrespectful, and inappropriate, especially towards a child. To make matters worse, after swimming I asked to rinse off with fresh water, but the captain said I could only do so after my “last swim.” In the end, I lost interest in swimming altogether, and was not even allowed to wash myself properly. Overall, this was a waste of money and a deeply unpleasant experience. The captain and his assistant clearly do not like children, yet they still accept bookings from families. If you are considering this yacht and you have kids—do not book it.

Safety was guaranteed. Would recommend it for families but not if you are a friend group. The skipper was very severe which lead to unnecessary discussions

We took this private boat from Cannes expecting a relaxing experience, but unfortunately, it turned out to be overpriced, restrictive, and riddled with hidden fees. The skipper — who also owns the boat — was incredibly particular and had a tendency to speak to us like children, rather than paying customers. It felt less like a luxury outing and more like being scolded for touching things in someone else’s living room. First off, if you opt to have lunch on the island, be aware that you’ll be charged €10 per person each way for a 45-second transfer from your boat to the island via a small dinghy. This was never mentioned prior to booking, which we found incredibly misleading. To find out about these extra charges once you're already there feels borderline exploitative. Secondly, we were told just before setting sail that we were not allowed to use the toilet onboard while cruising. As someone who drinks a lot of water, this would’ve been crucial information to know in advance. I found myself desperate for the toilet mid trip and when I asked, I was sternly told no, with the explanation that “the toilet is downstairs, and anyone who uses it will automatically get seasick.” I literally begged and was still told to go back and sit down. I’ve been on plenty of boats, used downstairs bathrooms, and never once gotten seasick, nor have I ever once been told I cannot use the toilet whiles in motion. Everyone reacts differently to being at sea, so to apply the same rule to every single person regardless of if they ever get motion sickness or not, is rather restrictive and unfair. And if you are going to restrict everyone in that way the least you could do is give us ample notice so we know to not drink any fluids before using your boat. To make matters worse, when we returned to the boat after swimming, we were told we had to lay our wet towels on the seats before sitting to keep the seats clean… but then were also still charged a cleaning fee. So we’re expected to go out of our way and make ourselves uncomfortable with wet towels to keep the boat spotless… and still pay extra for cleaning?!! I’ve never heard of such All in all, for the price we paid, the experience came with way too many rules, surprise charges, and unnecessary restrictions. Would not book again. There are far better boat options in the area that treat guests with transparency and respect.

Let this review be a warning. We have been on many yachts all over the world and I want to say this was by far the worst boat charter we have ever went on. If I could give negative stars I would. It was my friends 30th birthday and we were excited to get a yacht day. We should it known we were in for it when the lady at the port told us good luck with the skipper. Upon arriving Marcus gave us a long complied list of rules like we can’t go inside the boat can’t go on the right side of the boat, permission to use restroom. Last I checked we chartered the whole boat…. Anyways continuing on he locked my friend inside the bathroom saying he was showing her how to use it had her stand in the shower while he stood in front of the door wouldn’t let her out and wouldn’t let me in ! After me banging on the door he came out and said “I’m not rape man I have wife and kids!” I can’t imagine what could have happened if we were in the water or in the front of the yacht. Any little thing we would do he would monitor. We have been on numerous yachts and never experienced anything like this. When we got off the yacht even my friend told Marcus this was a terrible charter. (Don’t think he cared) the lady at the port explained they get complaints all the time and she was apologetic. She said the only time they get good reviews is if the men are French and white which is what he only prefers I guess. She said it’s crazy how they still have him. She felt so bad for us. Louisa after me telling her the reviews said I’m telling lies. It’s kind of crazy, everyone telling the same lie? Everyone can’t be telling the same lie, she’s in denial and will not help you if you complain about the situation and will just say your making things up which is even more of a reason to not book this charter. Do yourself a favor and do not book this yacht !!!!!!!!!!!! Save yourself
