“Loves the boat, me and my girls turned it up for my Bday! One thing that I was unhappy about is that one of friends booked last minute. We were all picked up from our hotel and when we got on the boat a few minutes later (15min) one of the employees came on the boat to let us know she would not be allowed transportation at night back. While this may be there policy, she had already been picked up and then to say a woman cannot be brought back in the dark on the port is wild. You should not allow booking last minute if it doesn’t include…”

“It was a party boat. Drunk college kids, the “fajitas” were terrible (it was like a middle school cafeteria lunch), the open bar was two types of beer and watered down margaritas. They wanted you to buy “premium” tickets for better alcohol. During dinner someone puked onto the lower deck. Absolutely terrible experience. Should not be marketed to families. Huge waste of time and money.”
