Captain Jeff was so diligent in the days leading up to our trip and had excellent communication with us. He called confirming our booking, ensured we knew what to expect, answer in questions, gave directions to get to the dock and where to park. It was very reassuring! The boat was so pretty, clean, and we all loved it! Our family had the best time lounging on the bow! I would highly recommend Lone Palm to anyone wanting an unforgettable experience!

The Bay Area Sailing School that runs out of Sackett's Sailing Center was a great experience for…read moreme, a totally novice sailor. The Basic Keelboat class had about 20 participants for the half-day classroom session Saturday morning, but when we broke for practical on-the-water instruction all afternoon Saturday and 8-2 Sunday, there were just three to four students per boat, giving us all a chance to practice each basic maneuver. The two day course was just under $300, which includes 2 full days of instruction, books, log book, a several hour mentor sail, and a half day bareboat charter for our first trip out without an instructor. My husband took this class last year and later did the mentor sail. He then followed it up with the second three day course ASA 103 and 104 -- Basic coastal cruising and Bareboat chartering. We haven't yet taken advantage of his free half day bareboat charter because of the long drive down to Kemah and inability to schedule in advance for weekends, but don't expect there will be a scheduling problem if we can make it down there mid-week. My bareboat today just had three students--two young professionals (1 guy-late 20s and one girl, late 20s) and me, a 54 year old wife and mom. The instruction was thorough and good humored. We started out without a clue what we were doing, but soon were tacking and jibing without scaring our captain. For anyone wanting to get a first taste of sailing, this is a great start. I don't have experience with the sailing club or charters yet, but as a school it rocks.

Glenn was very nice to deal with on the phone and was very accommodating, making sure we had a boat to stay on the night before the course. I called ahead and he had the air conditioner running and boat nice and cool when we got there. The next morning we met our instructor for the weekend. Wayne was a very knowledgeable and proficient sailor with years of experience. He seemed to have an interesting sea story for everything that could happen to you aboard a boat. He was very patient and reassuring with my son (age 16). He was always calm and in control and he would let you make mistakes and learn from them. We were so lucky to have him as our mentor. If we choose to further our sailing education, I will definitely be giving these guys a call.

My wife surprised me with a weekend in Kemah that started with a dinner cruise followed by…read morefireworks on the bay. The boat is two stories, with dinner service from banquet dishes on the first floor. Reserved seats are upstairs while group seats are on the first floor. The food was good and was a chicken and steak option with sides. They served you both. Drinks were extra as were optional starters. Service was good but could have been more attentive given they were only bringing drinks and clearing the table. After dinner a DJ played music on an upstairs, open air deck before the fireworks started. Anyone in the area can obviously see the show so you don't need to be on the boat but why not. I'd say it's worth doing even if it's maybe a one time thing.

This was my second time chartering the Fantasea Yacht for a leisure cruise. My first experience was…read moreamazing and a breeze. Unfortunately, this second visit was the exact opposite. I purchased our tickets and food in advance so everything would be ready when we boarded, especially since the cruise is only one hour. We ordered the lemon pepper wings, which are always a good option on their menu I also recommend the charcuterie board. The wings were fried crispy, heavily seasoned, and definitely worth a try. We also ordered the shrimp and crab dip which was just okay. The shrimp had the texture and warmth of being microwaved for too long they were rubbery, flavorless, and disappointing. The bread served with the dip was very hard, difficult to eat, and made a huge mess. While on the cruise we ordered two cocktails that were very delicious. I just can't remember the names at the moment, but I'll update my review if I do. The yacht itself is beautiful, large, elegant, and spacious. From all the windows you're able to enjoy the incredible views and breathtaking scenery throughout the cruise which is definitely my favorite part. The reason I'm rating this experience three stars is because of the rude, dismissive, and aggressive attitude of the staff and supervisor when it came to receiving our prepaid food and redeeming our parking voucher through the Landry's Select Club program, which has been listed online for years. The supervisor treated us with the utmost disrespect and didn't give us an opportunity to explain nor have a conversation about the situation at hand. Instead, she repeated inaccurate information against what was posted online and acted as if we were asking her to pay for the parking voucher out of her own pocket. Including that what later made the experience even more uncomfortable was that she stood across from us at the bar and openly discussed us in a rude manner, which made the remainder of our cruise unpleasant. Would I charter this yacht again? Maybe. The yacht itself is beautiful, the views are unforgettable, and some of the food and drinks were great. However, the poor customer service left a lasting impression that makes me uncomfortable and unsure if we would return.
