Captain Sebastian was super friendly and a fantastic communicator, making sure we had all the information we needed to make it to the launch ramp on time (directions, parking, etc.). We got lucky and caught a SpaceX launch from the boat, which was surreal to see. We opted for the V-day package which included flowers, chocolates, and balloons and really added to the ambience. Overall it was a magical night, and I highly recommend to anyone looking for a unique date night.

She made sure we had everything we needed and gave great instructions. Sorry we didn't catch her name. The best part of this excursion was that they're dog friendly and of course we opted to get a doggy captain hat! Thankfully my husband is a good driver but it looked simple enough. I also recommend getting an early time slot bc we were almost the only ones in the water. I think I'd be more nervous if the water was crowded like later in the day. We really enjoyed our experience and would definitely come back again!

Myself and a few friends decided to go kayaking yesterday. We googled "hunting harbor kayaking" and…read morethe harbor boat rental popped up. We were presently surprised at the check in process and friendly staff. We ended up renting 3 single kayaks for 2 hours. Upon check in, the employee offered us use of the restroom and helped us into the kayaks. We were able to cruise around the harbor for 2 hours, which was a good amount of time.

The staff was incredibly…read morewelcoming shoutout to the lady at the front and the guy on the docks for making everything so easy. The Duffy boat is a dream. It's super easy to drive, and you can basically turn it into your own private floating lounge. We brought our own champagne and food, and the Bluetooth speakers were loud and clear. They even have cute captain hats for the group! My only regret: Not booking a longer slot. One hour flew by because it was so relaxing. If you're on the fence, go for the 2-hour booking it's the best way to enjoy the LBC water!

I booked a boat ride in advance, but they canceled the trip on their end…read more While I understand that cancellations can happen (weather, maintenance, etc.), the real issue was what happened after. Getting a refund has been difficult. I've made many attempts to get a hold of someone at the business and via email. No one picks up the phone and I've not received a reply to my email. When a company cancels a service, issuing a prompt refund should be straightforward. Unfortunately, that isn't the case here, and it's created unnecessary stress. I would recommend being cautious when booking and confirming their refund policy ahead of time. Hopefully they improve their customer service and how they handle cancellations in the future.

Rented a boat and took it out for a couple hours to see the holiday lights and enjoy some friend time on the water. Brought our snacks and drinks and navigated out to the canals of Naples. Beautiful this time of year with all the lights and magical holiday vibes. One thing I would say the rental price does not include a service charge of 15% so your total will be 15% more than you expected. I'm sure they note it somewhere along the way in the paperwork but I missed it and asked later when I saw the charge which they cleared up right away. The map is helpful as you may lose reception out on the water. Low tide gives you a more fun experience than high tide as you can't go under some of the bridges if the tide is too high. Check your tide chart before booking or ask them. Nigel's restaurant there seems really fun too crazy use of a space that was just a sidewalk a few years ago. Definitely a great spot to take off from and lots of restaurant options near the dock.

If I could bottle frustration and sell it, I'd name it after Anchors Away -- that's how perfectly…read morethis place captured the feeling. We were booked for 4 PM. Hours before, they tell us THEY messed up and need us at 3:30. Fine. We show up. Five minutes into the ride, the Bluetooth does not work. Back to the dock we go, dragging a silent boat like it's 1920. They move us to another boat... with a broken table. At this point, the deckhands even admit our time should be adjusted. Enter Nigel, the owner -- the man, the myth, the customer-service void. We ask for fair treatment. He offers a masterclass in how NOT to treat customers: * No flexibility * No ownership * No empathy * No clue how to run a customer-facing business He talks to us like we're inconveniencing him because we expected the boat we paid for to actually work. Then, cherry on top, we get a text later claiming we were late and didn't want to change times. Absolute nonsense. They couldn't even lie well. Anchors Away is the kind of place that turns a fun day on the water into a customer-service horror story. If you value your time, money, or sanity, steer far, far away.

Fast forward...I now have sealegs (which you don't need) so I booked a gondola to see the Naples Christmas lights to get a different view. The weekend before, friends and I walked the canal after the Belmont Shore Christmas Parade, so you can imagine the crowds of people going to see the Naples lights. The gondola is a much better way to see the lights. Booking online was simple. I received a confirmation email and in the email was what to expect. If you bring beverages, they provide a cooler/ice bucket with ice and cups. Connor was our gondolier and he was an absolute champ. He paddled through the canal so quickly that we had more time left on our cruise, so he took us out to the bay which was deserted, but peaceful. We had such a great time thanks to Connor! I highly recommend Gondola Getaway. Their staff is so friendly and knowledgeable. It's well worth the $267.50 (pre tip).

We did not grow up in a coastal community so this is all new to us but it's so exciting for our kids to experience the wonderful activities that the yacht club has. You don't really have to be into sailing to join. We personally love the dining experience, and all the holiday parties. People say that it's outdated, but I actually really like it. The mahogany vintage bar is pretty amazing. And the views are spectacular. All in all, I think it is worth the price tag. But only if you do plan to dine regularly. Which, for the record, I'm extremely particular with food, and I'm extremely impressed by the new chef. And for those that think it's a bunch of ultra conservative people, that's extremely far from the truth. All types of people are part of this yacht club. It has much more diversity than I would've thought and I love that.
