One of the best experiences we have had on our trip to ST.Thomas. It was my first time on a boat, Captain Michael made the ride so smooth. Our bartenders Mike & BJ were brought all the good energy. Cannot wait to come back & do this again!

Great experience to spend with friends, spouse or family. Hydrate before going. No need to drink alcoholic beverages before. They will provide you with a lot drink on the cruise. The appetizers was good and we had a lot to choose from. Also, this is a great time to take pictures on the water with great background options while cruising. Thanks to Tim and Neshawn for a great vibe and time.

This sunset sail was 10/10. The crew was absolutely amazing, friendly, kind, attentive and knowledgeable about the area. The open bar and appetizers were great although we were a little disappointed they didn’t have the Mahi dip! Overall we would 100% come back and these folks did an awesome job.
Response from Host, Aug 2026

Nicole_T, Jul 2026
The crew was amazing. It was very nice to be in the boat with the sail steering us, however, we sailed almost “away” from the sunset. When we headed back to the dock the sun was just starting to set and there was an island blocking what would have been the best view. I wasn’t too sure why we did that. We also were supposed to be sailing until 7:30 but when they went back toward the dock where the sunset was blocked it was closer to 7:00. I feel those 30 min could have been the best view of the sunset had they stayed where we were closer to 6pm. It was just a little disappointing.
Response from Host, Jul 2026
Thank you for the thoughtful review and for sailing with us on the Sunset Sail with Cocktails and Appetizers. We're glad the crew made such a great impression, and we hear you on the timing — catching that perfect sunset window is something our captains work hard to time just right each evening, and your notes on the route back to the dock are genuinely helpful as we look at ways to make sure every guest gets the best possible view. We'd love another chance to show you a sunset that lines up perfectly. We hope you'll join us again soon!

This was a great, relaxing journey by catamaran. The crew was personable and friendly. It wasn’t packed with people. It was simply a wonderful experience. The drinks were great and the food was a light fare. Highly recommend!

This sunset cruise was one of the highlights of my vacation! The views were absolutely breathtaking, and watching the sun set over the Caribbean was unforgettable. The food was fresh and delicious, and the drinks were great with plenty of options to enjoy while taking in the scenery.
The crew was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout the entire trip. They made everyone feel comfortable, kept the atmosphere fun, and provided excellent service from start to finish. The captain was knowledgeable, professional, and made the ride smooth while sharing interesting information along the way.
Everything was well organized, relaxing, and enjoyable. From the beautiful sunset and amazing views to the delicious food, refreshing drinks, and outstanding crew, this was a five-star experience. I would absolutely recommend this sunset cruise to anyone visiting St. Thomas and would do it again in a heartbeat!

This sunset cruise was amazing! This was our first visit to St Thomas and this was a great way to see the island from a different perspective! Our crew Anders and Tim and our captain Mike were incredible! They were very clear with expectations and made sure we were taken care of the whole time! They took time to speak with every passenger! The drinks and appetizers were delicious and just as described! Would definitely book again if we ever return to St Thomas! Highly recommend!!!!

The boat is very basic. Bench seats. Only two beers being served. A minimalist experience.
I’ve done a lot of cruises from this one while the people were lovely. The boat food and drinks were below average.

Andrea_W, Apr 2026
Navigating your way to the boat was a bit treacherous. You have to go up and down elevators in a large resort to make your way to the dock. Once aboard the staff was friendly, but drinks were watered down and their “appetizers” were chips, cheese/crackers, fruit for the most part. The most disappointing part was the fact it wasn’t a sail at all. We literally barely coasted just in the Bay Area and at one point I believe we just idled in place for 30 mins. We’ve had much better cruises and overall was disappointed especially for the price.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Andrea, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear parts of the experience did not meet expectations. Access through the resort can be a bit of a journey for first-time visitors, and we appreciate your patience. Route, sailing conditions, and vessel movement depend on weather and harbor traffic, but we always aim to provide the best experience possible. We appreciate your comments and will share them with our team as we continue improving.
