We had an amazing time with our wave in water captain! communication leading up to pick up was great and our captain, Anu, was incredibly friendly. We were a total of 12 people and headed to party cove for a great time. We had a 4:15pm satruday reservation and were advised to get there about 45 mins early, which I'm glad we did as it was pretty crowded. We ride shared to the dock. $5 entry per person to enter the docks. Will definitely book again for our next boat day! read more

Great experience on the lake with 10 people plus the driver. Boat was on the water and ready to roll before we even arrived. Get to the dam parking lot early as it took about 15 minutes to pay and find parking on a Saturday afternoon. $5 entry fee for each person, not vehicle. Disabled vets get in free. Was about a 20 minute ride to devils cove. Take in the views and add some sunscreen! There was a pretty large cooler available, however we did have a couple of our own too. Driver, Michael, was great to ride with. We ended up parking next to a group throwing around a football that hit our stuff and made a mess. Michael was great to get the other group to stop and get it cleaned up. Bathroom was available for an extra $50. Was like a little pop up tent. Bring a designated phone to play music on the boats speakers. Pretty decent sound, just had some bots docked around us that were obnoxious. Lilly pad was a huge plus to help stay afloat in the water. Fit 6 people comfortably, 10 was a bit tight. Overall a great experience. Pretty big party scene at devils cove during early June. read more

We rented a 14 person Pontoon boat with Wave in Water on the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend. The boat was really nice, big, clean and came with a very large cooler & a lily pad - so you don't really have to bring your own! Our captain was Jimmy and he was very good at communicating with me leading up to our rental and also when we were walking onto the dock to find him. The only reason I give 4 stars is because of these few things: We anchored at the very back side of devils cove and after we realized it was way more fun in the middle of devils cove and asked to move, the captain said it would take too long and recommended against it (I think we had about 40 more min before we were going to leave that area back for the dock). Definitely a more tamed and family friendly experience, didn't feel like it would be good for a party group. If you know where you want to anchor, then make sure to ask. We asked about the restroom (that we paid $50 extra dollars for) several times and the captain said "if you want to use it you can let me know because I would have to set it up" so this deterred us from using it because we felt bad asking. My niece waited all the way until we docked back at the end to use the restroom because she felt bad. That restroom should be set up right away for guests to feel comfortable and not have to ask. My brother's cap flew off on our way back to the dock and we asked the captain if we could turn around and grab it because it was floating in the water and he said no - we also returned to the dock with 10min to spare so a quick stop to make one of your guests happy would've been nice. read more

Awesome service and communication from Blake and Mike.We will definitely be booking with them again!

We had the best time with Captain Walt! We spent the afternoon cruising around the lake, looking at beautiful homes and decided to pull into Party Cove to swim, float and relax. Walt was safe, knowledgeable, helpful and fun! Because we had such a great day out on the lake we booked the following day as well! We highly recommend Wave In Water and Walt specifically! read more

Captain Hannah was truly amazing! The boat was great and we had a blast for the entire trip! Can't recommend enough and if you can ask for Hannah she was a great captain, was responsible, and kept the vibes high the entire time! read more

Fantastic experience with Jimmy for family boat day. Jimmy upgraded us to the nicer boat because it was available that day, which was amazing! Pickup and drop off was super easy. The boat was spotless and in great shape. Jimmy was extremely accommodating with the Maui Mat, water, etc., and showed us around Lake Austin. Don't wait to book Wave in Water for your next boat trip in Austin! read more

We rented a pontoon boat with no captain and had an absolute blast. Jimmy texted us ahead of time to answer any questions, and took plenty of time to show us around the boat & made sure we could operate the boat safely. The boat was in great condition. Thank you, we hope to be back soon!! read more

Booked wave in water for a Memorial Day weekend outing and had a good experience. Both jimmy and mike we're good captains and the payment/booking was all pretty easy. Just note the captains usually require 20% tip (I think that's true of most boating companies) so just factor that into your estimate for the day. read more

Hannah was amazing! We had the best day on the water, and she made it very memorable! The boat was perfect! Highly recommend this company for a day on the water. read more

We had a great time with our bachelorette party and our captain Hannah was awesome! Would definitely recommend!

Words cannot express how much fun I had with my cousins on a Wave In Water boat charter. Our Captain was Blake and we arranged for him to pick us up from our rental dock and that was amazing!!! We had a huge group and pricing was around $50 each (including a 20% tip) for a two hour cruise on "Bentley". It was well worth it! It did seem to take Blake a little time to warm up to us. At first, he was barely acknowledging us as we arrived at the boat which created a little bit of a weird vibe to start off with as we are w friendly bunch. I would say about an hour plus into the trip, when we stopped the boat to use the lily pad per my request, and Blake also jumped in the water and took a swim which seemed to revive him! He was friendlier for the last portion of the charter which concluded the experience in a great way and we tipped him well. I think it's important for all the captains to remember that the energy they bring to the boat has a big affect on the passenger experience. The overall experience gets 5 stars still because I felt that we were safe on the boat (they had life vests, Blake said he was a marine and an excellent swimmer, and we were able to bring our own drinks and plug our music into the boat's sound system). We had such a great time seeing beautiful Lake Travis! read more

The boat was in great condition. Very good communication. We had fun! Thank you

Spring Break April on a pontoon at lake Austin was amazing . Ryan was our Captain and did a great job . We stopped and got to jump in lake for awhile . It was warm and beautiful out . I would refer this company to anyone . read more

Very nice clean boat! Jimmy was very thorough and pleasant in making sure we were set up for our day rental! He even let us take it out a bit earlier than what we paid. Will definitely use them again in the future!! read more

First time out on Lake Travis. We were here for a bachelorette party. We had the best time and our Captain, Glen, was AMAZING. He contacted us the day before to confirm everything and answered all of my questions. He made sure we were all taken care of and was able to provide a super fun and safe experience for all of us. Glen was so great, people from another boat tipped him for helping them navigate their boats. When I do this trip again, I will definitely use Waveinwater! read more

Had an amazing time out on the water. Had a slight hiccup with our original reservation but Kevin was super accommodating and willing to fix it!

Our Captain Jimmy was the man! He accommodated our group when we told him that a couple of people need to be dropped off back at the boat launch halfway through the rental. We chose the Lake Austin rental and the water was nice and cool. He was a great captain and our group had an awesome time! read more

I would never use this place again we booked a rental and received a confirmation that our boat rental would be ready at 11am and no one ever showed up I had to call !!! the owner was like oh we gave your boat to someone else and that they didn't have any other boat available. So that was that nothing to do all day .. we did receive our refund tho but what kind of business are they running !!! so a long trip to walk in the park because everything was booked read more

My husband and I along with our 2 adult daughters, had the time of our lives in Austin, Texas with Wave in Water. We had an amazing time on their tritoon boat! We cruised up and down Lake Austin, enjoying the beauty of the lake and the houses surrounding it. We stopped and jumped in the water when we were hot and thoroughly enjoyed lounging on the Lilly pad. Adrian our driver was awesome! Wonderful time!!! read more

We had 9 guys for a bachelor party and it was our first time on Lake Travis. Our driver, Thomas, was outstanding. He was very accommodating and helpful. He took us immediately to Devil's Cove and we hooked up with a handful of other boats. This was by far the funnest part of our trip to Austin for the bachelor party. Get Thomas as your driver, that guy is great! read more

Our thanks go to captain Jim, Eli and Kevin. Came to Austin for a bachelor party, and the experience working with this crew was great.

Great boat rental. We did a self-captained 14 person Pontoon boat for a four hour slot. The entry to the Marina was backed up and took an unexpected thirty minutes to get through the line, but Mark was patiently waiting for us and provided great service prior to and after our time on the water. read more

Wave in Water was able to accommodate our group for a bachelor party at a very reasonable price and ever recommended transportation from downtown Austin. Johnny was an awesome driver - he picked up ice and cups for us and had the music playing so we were ready to enjoy ourselves once we got on the lake. I definitely recommend Wave in Water and Johnny! read more

We went out on a Friday for a Bachelorette Party and had an absolute blast! There weren't many other boats on Lake Travis and so the cove was dead but that didn't stop us from having a great time.

I would absolutely recommend Wave in Water! read more

This was seriously one of the best experiences we could have asked for! Captain Todd was perfect and Keith was quick to respond and very accommodating. We had rented the boat for 4 hours and had so much fun that we had to have it for another hour. Todd and Keith worked with us and we were able to stay out on the water. The boat was also great, it was in such good shape. Captain Todd was super friendly and was always making sure we were safe. Next time we decide to get a pontoon for the weekend, Wave in Water will definitely be my first choice. A MUST Do! read more
