Need more cruising

Barbara_C, Apr 2024

There wasn't much time spent cruising. We went from the dock down to California Lighthouse then docked for dinner. After dinner, we cruised back to the dock. The dinner was very good and we did have a nice time.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Hello Barbara_C, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our Caribbean Dinner Sail. We're pleased you enjoyed the dinner and had a nice time overall. We appreciate your feedback regarding the duration of the cruise part of the trip. Our current route from the dock to the California Lighthouse and back is designed to balance sailing and dining. However, we understand that you would have preferred more time spent cruising. We continually strive to improve our experiences based on guest feedback, and we will certainly consider how we can increase sailing time without compromising the quality of the dining experience in future outings. Thank you once again for your review. We hope to welcome you aboard again soon. Warm regards, Peter

What an absolutely AMAZING sunset cruise with Red Sail Aruba and the entire crew!! It’s a highly recommended part of a trip to the island. You will not be disappointed. The food provided is delicious, the drinks won’t stop and the entertainment sure will keep you moving as you watch the sun sink into the gorgeous water!!!

Don’t think twice, do it!!

Relaxing evening

Vickie_C, Feb 2024

Great staff, all staff were kind and skilled at their jobs!! The captain was very capable of driving the sailboat while maneuvering the sales. The bartender was efficient and made great drinks. Theory did a great job of running all of the things and the musician was terrific!

Nothing special

Emily_O, Jan 2024

Nothing special that made this a unique experience. Felt like a mass tourist experience with standard services.

Staff, music, dinks and dinner was great! I thought we could have sailed more than from the dock only to dock at the lighthouse and then back

Worth every penny!

We had a wonderful time the food drinks music and staff was amazing. We would do the cruise again Thank you

Book it

Tanesha_N, Oct 2023

We enjoyed our night. Dinner options were salad, rice with plantains, lasagna, chicken, fish, veggies and chocolate mousse for dessert. Music was relaxing and the bartender kept it coming. No complaints.

Not worth it

Alyssa_T, Oct 2023

When we first got on the boat, there was no space for us to sit as they over booked it. They said there was a buffet with plenty of food, but by the time it was our turn in like all that was left was rice and a few pieces of chicken. They over booked and had no extra food. For the price, we were e expecting at least a table to eat our food on, but we did not get enough food and had no place to sit and eat.

The food and atmosphere were unbelievable

William_N, Oct 2023

The boat was absolutely stunning from the ride out to the atmosphere and the food unbelievable experience
