Fabulous catamaran cruise - This was a fabulous cruise on a large catamaran. The staff were wonderful, bringing us drinks and looking after us. We had a swim, a sandwich was served and then we had 1 1/2 hours to roam Isla Mujeres. There was a really fun saxaphone player and great music playing all evening. I highly recommend this tour. You will not regret it!!

Wonderful - This tour was amazing! The boat was not crowded. We saw similar boat tours on the water that were jam packed with people. I was glad we weren’t on those boats. The staff was friendly and helpful. Music was plentiful. We even had a saxophone player. The photographer on board took some of our favorite photos of our trip.

Evening to Remember - I can't say enough good things about this experience! We absolutely didn't want it to end. Crew was so much fun and accommodating. Highly recommend We did have one issue with our return transport. As a group of 17 ppl that traveled to the boat together. We were forced to separate into different vans to return. This forced us to all have to stop at different hotels to drop off.

Fun Catamaran Trip - Such a fun experience! Pick up went fine, I will say if you get any form of car sick do NOT sit in the back of the van. You'll get so nauseous. But it was much better in the front/middle. It's $20 dock fee per person not per party. Someone ahead of us almost didn't get to go bc they didn't know it was per person. No shoes are allowed on the catamaran so bring easy to slip on and off shoes. No complicated ones with buckles. You'll thank me later. You stop at one spot off the coast of the island to swim which is lovelyyyy. They provide life jackets if you want them. Bring a towel, they don't provide those. You may even want a couple layers or different clothes bc after the ocean swim and exploring the island it can get a bit chilly. At least in February. They have bathrooms on the catamaran. They give you a light meal after your swim like a croissant sandwich thing which was very good. You dock at isla mujeres and they show you where the meeting point is. You're free to explore for about an hour and a half. There are a bunch of shops and beach side restaurants. So bring money for that if you want to eat, drink, or shop. The restaurant we went to took usd but not sure about the shops or other restaurants. The saxophone on the boat is loud, this is more of a party cruise than like smooth jazz romantic cruise. Top hits but with a saxophone. They had free drinks but we didn't have any bc we were alcohol-ed out from our all inclusive. There was a photographer on board who put people in all the poses and I think his pictures turned out well! Im not sure I didn't get any taken. Maybe bring a sweater to sit on as the seats are rather hard. I really enjoyed it! I would recommend if youd like to get out on the water and see Isla mujeres for a tiny bit and avoid the very long ferry lines. The catamaran trip was also very smooth. We didn't have very choppy waters but it was still really smooth. The crew was amazing and helpful! Always asked if you needed anything to drink. Helped you get out of the water. On and off the boat. Kept the party going the whole time!

Perfect way to enjoy Sunset - Great trip. Needs to be an hour longer to enjoy the island. The crew was fun and the saxophone player was great.

Definitely a fun catamaran ride! - This was a fun trip, minus one star because of what we didn’t know…..they toss out a floating rope and let you swim in the ocean for awhile, lifejackets were available, then we didn’t really watch the sun set, they told us look quick because we were docking at the island and we were to entertain ourselves for an hour and a half after dark and meet back in front of the closed diamond shop that gave us the tequila tasting (so you could buy some, which we did the plum tequila!). It was fine but that’s none of that was really in the description. The crew, Willie etc, were all wonderful and fun and we really enjoyed it a lot.

Scary Island and False Transportation Promises - We were picked up 42 minutes late from the time that we were told we would be picked up from our hotel. The first three hours on the cruise were great, staff is excellent including the live musical instrument player. The last hour was horrendous after sun down we were dropped off on an island where we were felt completely, unsafe told that we were staying there for an hour, and most of the shops were even closed. There was absolutely no purpose to be dropped off on an island other than a deal made between the tour operator and a jewelry store where we had to go upon arrival before leaving before leaving try to make high pressure sales. Also, the tour length was more than 4 hours I returned transportation to our hotel was proceeded by dropping off three other groups at their hotel.

Take the Ultra Mar - The island is amazing but this cruise is not worth it. Take the ultra mar. The ad said “romantic” which was far from the case. We were picked up at the RIU Las Americas and went to a dock much further away than the Ultra Mar would have been. Left our resort at 4:00 PM. Endured a 30 minute ride and then a 30 minute wait at the dock with no refreshments! Then got on the cheap plastic boat finally which had an unnecessary speaker to blast all the rules in our faces about where we had to go and what to do. Drinks had no alcohol in them and the music was obnoxiously loud. So we stayed on the island which was great. This cruise only allowed about an hour which is not nearly enough time. Took the ultra mar back which was cheap and very nice. Also a much closer ride back to our hotel. There was even a bar at this dock!
