Sunset Cruise -

Maryann_Z, Feb 2026
The staff was awesome. They couldn’t have been friendlier. The charcuterie board was delicious and drinks were flowing. I was disappointed that seating wasn’t available for all guest. I had to sit on the side of the boat. It wasn’t comfortable and probably wasn’t safe.

Amazing experience!

Angela_S, Dec 2024
Everything was excellence. We were picked up on time, had a chance to use the restroom and look at a little shop. The service on the boat was amazing. Snacks were delicious and had a variety. Throughout a storm, our captain kept us safe and mostly dry. No complaints from anyone in our whole group. You should go!

Response from Host, Feb 2025

hanks so much for your review! We’re happy to hear everything went smoothly despite the weather conditions, from the communication to the service provided by the captain. It’s great to know you had a comfortable and reliable experience. We’d be happy to assist you again next time!

Horrible service

Mel_J, Nov 2024
None, we canceled due to no power in the area and the operator scheduled us for the next day. Never showed up to pick us up

Response from Host, Feb 2025

Estimado Mel_J: Le pedimos disculpas por los inconvenientes ocasionados por la pérdida de la recogida tras el corte de energía en la zona. Si bien la cancelación inicial se debió a circunstancias fuera de nuestro control, Estamos investigando el problema y tomando medidas para mejorar nuestro servicio y evitar que vuelva a suceder. Agradecemos su comprensión y paciencia. Gracias por compartir sus comentarios y esperamos poder brindarle un mejor servicio en el futuro. Atentamente,

Great trip!

Katie_D, Oct 2024
Great experience, great service. Water was very rough so they had a backup plan to make it the most enjoyable experience for our group. Selena was an excellent host and refreshments were enjoyable

Disappointing sail

Lisa_D, Jun 2024
The seas were rough, there were too many people on the boat. Food was average. And sadly the sunset didn’t really materialize for us .

Time travel

David_W, Apr 2024
If you. Stay at the Vidanta resort count one hour of travel to the point of disembarkation for the dinner cruise. After a delightful two hour sail, it is another hour back to the resort.

Response from Host, Jun 2024

Dear David_W, Thank you for sharing the details of your experience with us. It sounds like you had a wonderful time on the dinner cruise, but I understand that the travel time from Vidanta resort to the embarkation point and back can be quite lengthy. We appreciate your feedback and will take it into consideration for future planning. If there's anything else we can assist you with or if you have any further feedback, please don't hesitate to let us know. We want to ensure that all aspects of your experience meet your expectations. Best regards, The Travel Cancun Experiences Team.

beautiful experience

Katrin_B, Jan 2023
would have loved to depart a bit sooner for the trip, it didn't take too long before the sun was gone, other than that, an amazing experience which I recommend! Everything was well taken care of, please make sure to taste barman Jorge's suprise drink :-) snacks where a minimum, recommend eating before you go.

This was a great sail. It was really beautiful and the staff was awesome. Hospitality 10/5! This is not a private sail. There can be 20-30 people on this boat. You can’t wear shoes on the boat. Great experience we had a blast!!

Rocky Cruise, UnPaid Crew?

James_L, Feb 2022
It’s important to book after you arrive to Mexico so you to can determine optimal sailing weather. It was cloudy and the waters were rough, which made it difficult for some to enjoy or even move without risking going overboard. The crew was nice, but the photographer said they only work on tips. Guess she thinks her digital picture for $30 is a bargain? We paid good money for a rocky cruise, but I don’t know if the crew did.

Response from Host, Apr 2022

Dear James_L Thank you for reviewing the Luxury Sunset Cruise from Riviera Maya, we appreciate your time and the feedback your comments provide in order to keep improving our Experiences. Our guests always have the option to reschedule or request a Refund due to bad weather. There is no need to wait until you arrive because by then, the date you wish to book might not be available. We are sorry due to adverse weather conditions you did not enjoy the full extent of this beautiful sunset experience. Photo packages are available for purchase but are in no way the only form of income the photographers receive. We have contacted our Experience Provider to make sure of this. Once again, we are sorry you had a rocky cruise, we are always doing our best to keep a happy and entertaining vibe on our Experiences but weather sometimes does not play along. We hope you visit us again soon and that we are able to take care of your vacation plans once more! Until next time, warm regards. The Travel Experience Group
