From booking the trip to finishing, incredible experience! Professional all round experience to give you the confidence if you were lacking it! Juan and crew were amazing and the boat was so easy to use. They recommended the perfect snorkeling spots and the views were spectacular along the Mallorca coast. I would highly recommend booking and we will be back that's for sure!

Loved it! We were given clear instructions on how to drive the boat, where to go and when to come back. The boat guy was super helpful and friendly and it was such a professional operation! Wish we had gone back for a second go. Worth every penny!

    My son and I hired a boat for a few hours. They where extremely helpful and friendly. The boat was easy to use, especially after the informative demo on how to use the boat. I would definitely recommend them. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

    Excellent family fun

    Linda_C, Jul 2026
    Everything was so simple, only took a few minutes to learn controls and off we went. Anchored up done a bit a messing around in the water, sunbathing then back home. Brilliant day.

    Great outing! Do instead of cruise excursions

    Jordan_A, Jul 2026
    I refuse to pay for a cruise excursions since they’re $$$$ and you have no control over your experience. I found this great deal and my family had a wonderful time swimming and tooling around (albeit very slowly since the motor is tiny). We did 4 hours and had 4 adults and 2 small kids on the boat, it’s definitely snug but you’re mostly swimming anyway. It was a great deal and about 20ish minutes from the cruise port. You save a ton not having a captain to tip

    The Scottish woman seemed quite rude at first, but I think it’s just coz she’s Scottish 😆 everything else was perfect especially Ime, the daughter in law and her amazing little boy

    Fantastic Experience

    Kevin_M, May 2026
    Hired a no license boat for 2 hour duration. Instructor Adriano was fantastic. Showed us how to work the boat and even pinned a location on Google maps for us to anchor up and go for a swim! There was a cool box, Bluetooth speaker and snorkelling equipment on board ( although partner struggled to use snorkelling equipment as wasn't very good) The instructor goes out with you and shows you what to do then he jumps in a dingy and goes back to shore. When we came back we stayed a bit away from the docking area and our instructor came out in a dingy and docked the boat for us. Would highly recommend. Was 137 euros for 2 hour hire. 200 euro deposit which I get back after the trip.

    A very pleasant afternoon on a boat

    The boat and engine were in good condition and at 15 HP the engine had enough power to cover a good amount of distance in the time available

    The instructor was very...

    Hidelisa_R, Sep 2025
    The instructor was very attentive and prepared us for driving the boat around the coast to a destination where we could anchor and swim. He even met us to dock the boat and get us off safely. Very enjoyable and fun experience with the most bluest ocean water I’ve ever seen.

    Santa Ponsa boat trip

    David_S, Aug 2025
    Easy to drive boat & very helpful staff great for the family. The guy who shows you how to drive the boat parks it back up for you when you come back in & he gives you some advice on where to find the best spots

    Be aware of extra fees

    Rabia_A, Jul 2025
    I don’t normally write reviews but the lady at the counter was extremely rude and rushed. She thankfully took a deposit in different currency but upon return kept 30 euro for being “late”. The boat attendant clearly told me the time I needed to return and she said nothing could be done. Honestly feel like I been hustled. Also no first aid kit on board. Got a cut and they had nothing available.

    Fab but check wind forecast

    Louisa_A, Jul 2025
    Great service etc, just very windy! Went round the head like advised and anchored at a lovely bay to have our supermarket bought food and drink and snorkel which was fab, just journey to and back was really windy so captains struggled with driving and passengers got soaked!

    friendly reception and very kind staff. the boat we rent was in very good condition and the guy who prepared the boat was super nice 👍

    Great experience

    Henrik_E, Jul 2025
    Great experience! The whole experience was excellent. Booking was easy, and the staff were friendly and helpful. I can only highly recommend it!

    Great independent excursion

    Christopher_C, Jul 2025
    Great experience and location. If you have prior boating experience, you may be disappointed that the motor is only 15 hp and while you make a small wake, you won’t get anywhere fast. But for inexperienced boaters, it’s easy. Alejandro was great to work with. 5 stars

    Brilliant 2 hours, wish it was longer

    Adrian_M, Jun 2025
    Heads up we are both mid 60’s. Adrian kept us updated to get us to the boat, Juan explained everything. Controls, safety, emergency contact, downloaded a good route for 2 hrs and left us feeling in control. Boat controls were easy and route extremely satisfying. Snorkelling was in calm waters and even my wife felt safe to swim safely and get back on board without the boat drifting away. There is a knack to getting back on board with the small ladder. The roof gives good sun protection and we could have stayed out all day, we thoroughly enjoyed it and will definitely do again.

    Very nice

    MEDHI_B, Apr 2025
    Very nice boat for two and easy to drive, Adrian gave us good advices for beautiful spots in the area

    Amazing experience

    Sophie_H, Apr 2025
    Had such a lovely experience today, managed to change the date last minute thanks to Adrián!! There was 4 of us and it was very easy to learn how to use the boat. Would definitely come back again

    Great experience

    Niamh_o, Apr 2025
    Great experience, well worth the money all the staff very friendly and helpful from the girls in the office to Adrian and Marcelo. Marcelo was very helpful and showed us how the boat works and all the features, very easy to operate the boat. 2 hours went too fast would recommend 3/4 will definitely be back to do it again.👍🏻

    Amazing experience! Wish...

    Aaron_H, Apr 2025
    Amazing experience! Wish they were offering longer rental terms (at least when we rented it we felt 2 hours was a bit short)

    Very Happy

    Dan_P, Oct 2024
    Lovely views and beautiful sea. As we went on this boat in late October water was pretty cold but what do you expect. Was refreshing! Big shoutout to Alex who was very friendly and told us all we needed to know for this boat trip. Would definitely recommend!

    Amazing experience

    Lina_O, Aug 2024
    Amazing experience .... I rented the boat for me and my daughter (13) she was thrilled, she enjoyed every second of the trip. Adrian made everything so easy to understand as it was my first time driving a boat. If you come to Majorca you shouldn't miss this experience.

    Good

    Kirsti_W, Aug 2024
    2 Hours went by really fast. But definitely a nice trip. Would i do it again? Yes, it was a good time

    Excellent

    Gareth_B, Jul 2024
    Super friendly and helpful staff who were happy to offer tips on where to take the boat. Really enjoyable.

    Our favorite part of our Mallorca trip

    Robert_B, Jul 2024
    Great experience! Staff was super helpful and easy going. Boat was so easy to drive also. I highly recommend this activity if you’re looking for the boat rental experience. You’ll want to extend to 3 hours for sure!

    Great, fun experience.

    Lynda_M, Jun 2024
    Really enjoyed renting the boat. Very helpful and friendly staff. Spoke excellent English. Explained everything clearly to us. Bonus was we didn’t have to dock the boat, that was done for us. Make sure you read all the info - we nearly missed the bit that tells you that you need €200 cash as a deposit! We also lugged water/drinks/snacks from our hotel and there is a supermarket right next door to the rental office. A great, fun experience, would definitely recommend.

    Great experience and...

    Shauna_O, Jun 2024
    Great experience and great staff who explained everything for us and where to go on the boat to get the most out of our experience

    Great time boating on the Mediterranean!

    Kevin_B, Jun 2024
    Great time on the boat! The staff was very helpful in teaching how to drive the boat, and they docked it for us when we returned. I highly recommend it! We had a great experience out on the Mediterranean with it and will do it again in the future!

    So much fun, great instruction , simple to use … what a fun way to explore the island

    Claire_D, May 2024
    Friendly owners …. Really friendly and helpful …. I got engaged on the boat in a beautiful cove Anthony told us to go to💗 Thank you 🙏

    Excellent

    Thomas_C, Aug 2023
    Great time. Boat was in great condition. Courteous and timely service. Found a great peaceful cove to anchor and swim

    Best experience in Mallorca, must try!

    MinMing_L, Jul 2023
    Best experience we had in Mallorca! Adrian was such an amazing host. We were slightly late and he waited for us, gave us a bit of an extra time and patiently taught us how to drive the boat. One of us was seasick and he was so accommodating to come and collect us back to the shore in between the ride. Would definitely recommend and go again!
