Amazing! - Beautiful island, great food, and friendly staff. The trip is a bit long, but it's totally worth it. The views are amazing. The only thing I want to mention is that they ran out of beer very early. We arrived around 12:20pm and at 1:45pm they had no more beer available. It's completely unacceptable, in my opinion.

Good. - Nice, but I thought we had more time going there than actually on the island.
I was harassed, so don't say you're alone. Unfortunately they do not respect.

Yes worth it ! - Pick up from the hotel was good . 8am like they said . The ride to the boats took an hour bc of where we were staying so keep that in mind . It’s a little hectic at takeoff due to all the people waiting on boats to take you to Saona island but once you get out to the natural pool the crew is great at taking pics and filling your cups with rum and cola! Provided Lunch was decent . Only spent 2 hours at Saona total , but wasn’t bad . Coral is rough take swim shoes! The pictures are absolutely beautiful with the water and palms! Worth the money !

Disappointed with the second half of the excursion - Staff was friendly however there must have been some miscommunication because we did not leave Saona Island when scheduled and we did not leave on the catamaran. We left Saona to go back to the pick up area an hour and a half later than expected which caused us to change our dinner reservations and in a smaller boat that caused all the water to splash in our faces.

Disappointment! - I did not really enjoy this tour with catamaran since I thought it was max of 30 per group on the description. We were about 70+ people in 1 catamaran boat which did not have enough seat left (I sat on the floor). The provided lunch was huge disappointment. I encouraged everyone to bring some food. Overall, my experience was OK. Not looking forward to use this package again.

Very medium level organization - Very, very average! The driver arrived 1h15 late. We waited in the lobby and could not have breakfast as the hotel restaurant was still closed. If we had known, we could have taken our time, but the driver did not speak a single word of English, so we could not communicate with him and his few answers were evasive about his arrival.
Then we arrived on site at 11:00 for a scheduled departure at 07:45. That's a long drive for an hour.
Sanoa is beautiful, but don't expect to see starfish as expected and sold in this tour. The children were inevitably disappointed.
The catamaran was cool as well as for the speed boat.
The organization as a whole is very average. Bcp Waiting times that have eaten up our time on site.
Take this experience with another provider I relied on other reviews I should not have.

Result - Total defection! Thousands of tourists. Food terrible - mass handling. The main thing Cheap Rum and Coke (water is also available) that’s it. The traders on the island constantly annoy. The water is cloudy due to the many people and boats, you can see no fish and no starfish at all. Cruel environmental destruction! Never again!
