This island was absolutely a beautiful site to see. We enjoyed the staff's hospitality, services, and enthusiasm! The water was clear as day. However, there were too many rocks when we initially were in the shallow area. With that being said, I do suggest bringing water shoes. The boat ride to the island was rough along the way with the waves of the water being strong. Otherwise, this was a nice day to relax and enjoy the scenery.

Happy Birthdaayyyyy to Me

Taschia_D, Apr 2024

This was a great experience. I was celebrating my birthday. Jordan was my host and made this the most memorable experience ever. When I entered the beach club I received a birthday serenade. He was very attentive to our needs and kept high energy the entire time. He even danced with me. Jordan is the best! Book and have yourself a luxurious experience.

DO IT!

Jamela_K, Apr 2024

Everything was amazing food was good. View and vibes amazing do it if you’re thinking about it .. the boat ride is a bit rough but once you’re there it’s truly paradise

A bit overrated

Isabel_G, Apr 2024

Pros: Great service, beautiful cabanas, well maintained, food was tasty. Cons: small beach with tons of coral (bring aqua socks), not enough bathrooms and they were dirty, not enough fans for guest to stay cool

Relaxing !

Ana_C, Mar 2024

The service was great!!!! We had no complaints. Will be back. Very accomodating. The food was delicious.

Wonderful experience

Henry_Y, Mar 2024

This tour was absolutely amazing! Punctual at departing the port. Once there we were welcomed warmly. The property was beautifully laid out. The cabanas were perfect. The food and drinks were delicious. The water was stunning. Everyone was very attentive and friendly and eager to accommodate. Highly recommended!

Absolutely, a must!

Trina_P, Mar 2024

Absolutely recommend!! Now be prepared for a bumpy boat ride! I’d recommend to sit in the middle. VIP was also a good choice. The DJ was better to me and so were the single sun bed options. No need to upgrade to a bed close to the water unless you’re not interested in getting some sun, a tan. Only down side for me is I wish I didn’t select the seafood pasta. Not thee best! The seafood taste fresh but the pasta no bueno! Overall had a wonderful time on my birthday at Bora Bora!!

Response from Host, Mar 2024

It sounds like you had a fantastic experience overall, enjoying the boat ride, the middle or VIP seating, the DJ, and the single sun bed options. It's great that you had a wonderful time celebrating your birthday in Bora Bora. Your feedback on the seafood pasta is noted, and it's always helpful to share honest reviews to enhance future experiences. Thanks for sharing your recommendation!

Luxury price, 1 star experience

Kara_S, Feb 2024

Can think of a number of better ways to spend $250. Arrive at 9am and leave again at 2pm. ‘VIP’ - Sunbed was permanently in the shade, fish and rice for lunch (tasty but fish and rice is cheap), boat ride which will leave you absolutely soaked if sat at the back. Then all drinks and snacks on top of this taking the total spend to around $350. If you are expecting the service/quality of VIP beach clubs across Europe/Vegas/Dubai then think again. Not worth the money.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Our departure schedule goes from 7:30 am to 8:20 am from the pier, the departure depends on your arrival time, we have free sunbathing spaces in the club in each area of it. The Pasadia offers 5 lunch options to choose from, one per person, the decision to choose fish is personal we have Seafood pasta paella Typical dish Grilled chicken Vegetarian dish. Departure from the club is at 3 pm - to arrive in Cartagena at 4 pm (for safety)

Perfect Trip Gone WRONG

Angeline_P, Jan 2024

This started off as the perfect excursion. The trip to the island was good. We were received well once we got to the island. Our time on the island was perfect. It was a great way to wrap up my trip. That was until it was time to head back to cartagena. We were all squeezed onto one boat. That wasnt the best idea because at that time the waters are choppy and rough. Aside of that, there were passengers on the boat that were belligerent drunk. As we began our trip back to the main land, we hit a big wave. One of the drunk passengers fell out of his seat and his entire group stands straight up in the middle of the ride. The captain stops the boat, the co captain comes down to check on him and his drunk rude self then physically assaults the co captain. All hell breaks lose and the boat is stopped in the middle of the water for far too long. They continue to go back and forth and the captain makes the decision to change the route. Bad move. When he changed the route we ended up stuck in muddy waters because the tides were so low. Passengers had to get out of the boat and literally pull the boat out of the mud along with the co captian. Needless to say it was getting later and concerns were setting in. Passengers were sending videos to their families out of fear that nightfall would set while we were somewhere secluded from civilization and out of the normal route. We eventually made it back. What was supposed to be a 45 minute trip became a 3 hour trip back to cartagena. I dont know if I would trust this company to take me there again. My friends and I did not feel safe at all. Between the physical assault, the verbal assault and the being stranded in what looked to be a swamp was not the perfect ending to my trip. I understand the company might not have control over others actions, but they have control of the amount of alcohol they serve someone. And that group of people were visibly drunk before they even got back on the boat. All of this was communicated to the team once we arrived and there was no express of empathy or sympathy. I will be reaching out to get a refund immediately.

Amazing!

Karysha_D, Jan 2024

Definitely was an amazing day! Would definitely do it again! The process was very easy. Just have 14 pesos for the taxes at the gate & be ready to relax

Muy Bien

Asha_P, Jan 2024

The massage option was amazing. The drinks were little watered down. The food was good, but while eating chicken real chickens were walking around tables which was a little weird.

Like a dream

Linda_L, Jan 2024

Bora Bora was amazing beyond expectations! The locals were amazing our server Pedro was amazing! I got the VIP which I recommend. From the port to going back into the port everything was amazing. The food was delicious. The island was beautiful too.

Nice time

Asia_B, Jan 2024

I enjoyed my trip at Bora Bora. The food and atmosphere was great! I only wished that we had the option to not stay the entire time (until 3pm) as we were ready to go after a few hours due to the heat. It was also a bumpy ride back on the speed boat that was quite nerve wrecking for me. Other than that, the place was nice and if you want to relax with a small turn up, this is the place for you.

Ok beach club

Michael, Dec 2023

The over all experiments was kind of chaotic…upon arrival you line up at the doc where there is zero crowd control and everyone is jockeying to get through the gate. Once on the boat it’s an hour ride to the Brach club. Upon arrival we were greeted by the staff and then shown our bed, we were not explained anything at all. We went up to get food where we were ignored and dismissed until our personal waiter introduced himself (Fernando who was absolutely amazing). Once we were linked with him then our service was impeccable. The overall facilities were nice but the vip experience was in my opinion just average. Also the boats should be separated into vip and non vip. Overall a relaxing day at the beach but not as luxurious as I expected

SUPER FUN!! GREAT DAY!

Lisa_K, Dec 2023

Must do when visiting Cartagena!! Beautiful Beach Club and friendly service! It was organized and a great value.

Beautiful Bora Bora Island

Amira_D, Dec 2023

MUST TRY

Jennifer_M, Dec 2023

Bora bora is a must on your vacation. The staff waited on the dock till we arrived and gave us a nice warm welcome. They say us at our cabana and attended to us immediately. The food was amazing,and the drinks were also.

Great ambience!

Janette_C, Nov 2023

The concept is brilliant! The staff is attentive, welcoming and friendly. The facilities are great, and the ambiance is fun. This place is ideal for lounging, couples and big groups of people. I gave it four stars because the “beach” area is deceiving. It’s a small area.

Better For Couples

Patricia_H, Nov 2023

This experience was better for couples. The VIP side came with the package but little did we know the guest side was way better. On the VIP side they insisted playing the " dut dut" music that fit the crowd and on the guest side they played more hiphop and latin music. I suggest not spending the extra money to be on the VIP side unless you want to go back and fourth between both sides. There were also a lot of couples and the only ones that were having fun were the ones that booked the rooms in large groups of 8-10 people. I would recommend this for the experience but it's not much to experience so the money to me honestly is not worth it but I don't regret it.

That's a vacation!

Jessica_L, Nov 2023

This is one of the BEST! we had a great time. We booked VIP experience and is was worth every penny.

Not worth your money

Paige_G, Nov 2023

Not worth the upfront money - and all of the hidden costs you're going to have to pay as a part of excursion.. You had to pay for boat ride over and back. Free drink was non-alcoholic. Lunch was mediocre. You're constantly being approached to buy trinkets or extra food and drinks. We didn't pay for VIP tickets so maybe it was better in there. But not something I'd recommend. At least on Cartagena's free beach, you may be approached to buy food, drinks, massages and trinkets - but you didn't have to pay a couple of hundred dollars for that harassment.
