    We booked a private charter for 8 guests out of Fajardo, and the tour itself was good…read more The problem came after. I accidentally overpaid by $200 when sending the balance (sent the deposit twice via Wise). I emailed Ellen the same day with a payment link to make the refund easy. She had been incredibly responsive leading up to the trip, but once it was over, I never heard back. I followed up multiple times over two weeks and got nothing. Would have been a 5-star review if they had just handled the refund. The tour was that good. But going silent on a customer who's owed money isn't okay.

    I should have trusted my gut instinct. This company is full of promises that they did not and…read morelikely can't deliver. I don't leave bad reviews but when I feel I was duped out of nearly $1200 your damn right you will hear from me! It's not even the money - I specifically asked about fishing for my son as that was the whole point! So now his day was ruined - which I may add he had been looking forward to for months! So yes, 5 days before our charter plans changed due to the other half of our party canceling their vacation. So, to stay honest with the company and try to do the right thing I informed Ellen what the situation was and that I could not pay $1700 extra on top of our $500 deposit. I told her we wanted fishing for my son which was the most important aspect of the trip. After back and forth for a bit she agreed we would have everything we originally planned but cut time to 4 hours- fishing she said could only be catch and release but for an extra $100 she would add more gas and bait for fishing! Well, that was not done- there was zero bait and zero extra gas used to go anywhere for fishing! I even called her per the captain's recommendation- funny how her story changed at that point! She said the bait would come from the captain catching fish and using that as bait... nope captain couldn't do it! I said where's the extra $100 on "gas" hmmm still waiting on that. Trust me if I wanted to take my kids to a "party island" and sit idle in the water for 3 hrs and use a dinky hook to catch baby fish I could have done that for way less than $1200! When I called her out on it I of course got the run around and blaming me for trying to hurt a small business! Lady, I love small business - I come from a family of business owners, but this is Not the way you run a business or treat customers. The best part I booked a separate fishing trip but was trying to do right by the company so they did not take a total loss- the other company gladly gave my deposit back! Again, I should have cancelled completely with island reef tours! Heed the warning- the boat was subpar, the service was not anything to gloat about and she promised many things that were not delivered! Don't worry I have texts about our conversations- she will only show the ones she claims is what she promised. What a joke!

    My husband I had an excellent experience! We booked a 4-hour excursion on Viator for $135 per…read moreperson, which is a great deal for everything that was included! Check in was at 12:30. Easy to find location with plenty of parking. We embarked at 1pm and returned at 5pm. The capitán, bartender and staff took such great care of everyone on the clean catamaran. The lunch was fresh and delicious and the drinks flowed the entire time. Plenty of time to snorkel and relax on the beautiful Cayo Icacos. It was perfect!

    Highly do not recommend. We recently chartered a boat with…read morethis company in San Juan. I have been on many excursions over the years and have never experienced treatment like this. I fully understand and respect that the vessel has a no-smoking and no-vaping policy. I complied. However, the manner in which the policy was communicated was unnecessarily rude and confrontational. Professional leadership sets the tone onboard, and unfortunately that tone created an uncomfortable atmosphere from the start. At one point, I was also threatened by a crew member, which was completely disproportionate to the situation. That escalation appeared to stem from poor leadership and communication from the captain. The most disappointing moment occurred as I was disembarking the vessel when the captain said, "Can you walk straight?" implying that I was intoxicated or unstable. This comment was especially inappropriate given that I have visible scarring on my femur from a serious injury. I worked very hard to recover from that injury, and being mocked in that manner was unprofessional and disrespectful. I have always respected crew authority and vessel policies on prior charters. Rules are understandable. Disrespect and intimidation are not. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and ensures future guests are treated with courtesy, professionalism, and respect.
