It did take a bit to get the premium bar menu to review - and I really wanted good champagne on the yacht to be served all night long, but they only had prosecco and we weren't able to work together to order nice bottles ahead of time. There was a 2 bottle maximum that was allowed to be brought on board with a $35 corkage - but they allowed me a few more bottles on board which was nice. But would have been nice to know ahead of time vs the day before. I wouldn't say anyone went above and beyond - but service was professional, courteous. Drinks for the premium bar were definitely on par with CA prices. They provided a list of caterers and for my milestone where I wanted French food - recommended Tom's Catering. He has been doing food on board for 20+ years and the food was PHENOMENAL. Guests devoured the food and everything was absolutely delicious. Boat has 3 levels and was able to fit the party nicely. The main floor had the bar and upstairs is where we played games. all in all - everyone had a lovely time, nobody got sea sick.

Their team was attentive, professional, and went above and beyond to help coordinate every detail. They assisted me in arranging a meaningful military tribute, including having members of the Army present for a flag folding ceremony and the playing of Taps at the end of the day. Every element was handled beautifully - from the roses to the full-service yacht experience. The office staff was equally helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. Everything about this experience was first class, and I would highly recommend Pradiso Charter to anyone looking for exceptional service and care Thank You All Jerry F.

The team definitely made up for the initial mistake, and I walked away more impressed than I would've been if everything had gone perfectly. If you're thinking about booking with them -- do it.

I was there on my birthday with all of my guests looking for someone to help us. This is when I asked the Newport Beach Sailing Charters if they had anything available. They have the most beautiful clean office, opposed to the dirty bus the first business was ran out of. While we signed all the papers, they offered us free drinks and everyone was INCREDIBLY nice! The captain got there so quickly, we got on the boat almost immediately and went sailing. Craig was also the best captain we've ever had. Me and my guests had the most amazing time. It's definitely one of the best birthdays I've ever had. I will NEVER go anywhere else again!!!

The entire process was easy and I appreciated the straightforward pricing. When we arrived to the dock, we met Captain Joe and our host who were the upmost professionals and made sure that we had a fun and safe trip. Before boarding, Reuben informed me that there was an issue at the restaurant where I had ordered mobile pickup. He took it upon himself to handle the issue and ensure that we received our food order for onboard our cruise. Reuben took away the stress of me having to deal with it, picked up our order and had everything ready for us to enjoy. The 42 foot Von Dutch yacht that I rented for our cruise was exactly as pictured on the site. It was beautifully taken care of and clean. Throughout our cruise, Captain Joe would continually make sure that we were comfortable, kept us updated, and picked the most beautiful swimming location. He made our cruise so much fun! Our host onboard was super attentive, kind, and went above and beyond to ensure that we were taken care of. Overall, the service that Reuben and everyone at Captain Newport provided us was exceptional. I will definitely recommend them to others and would use their services again.
