The same sea that surrounds the wonderful islands of nearby Corsica such as Cavallò, Lavezzi and Isola Piana, immersed in the Strait of Bonifacio.

Great rental experience. Thoroughly enjoyed with clear communication. Some points to note: - Their bluetooth speakers weren’t working despite me asking for one two days beforehand so just be aware of this. - Also, they don’t tell you the price of the boat fuel beforehand either. To settle up, they ask for you to take a picture of the fuel gauge at the end of the rental. It’s worth noting that they then estimate the usage and apply a fixed cost (ie we used 1/8th of a Kardis boat tank and this cost €38). It was all a bit of a mystery and it would have been nicer to know what the fuels costs were before riding as we could then decide how far to go! Overall a great experience and would recommend.

Everything went very well, from the reservation to the return of the boat. Thanks to Virginia for her welcome and her advice and to her team for helping to get the boat under control. If the boat had had a gps or if a nautical chart and a compass had been provided it would have been perfect to navigate without going along the coast because google maps has its limits...

Very pleasant welcome by Virginia. Everything is clear and well organized and the boat is very recent and in perfect condition. I was pleasantly surprised by the performance of the 40hp engine, it is more than enough for cruising, even in the waves and the wind offshore. Fuel consumption is correct. The car can be parked for free right next to the pier. I will gladly return to Virginia for a new rental. Michael

Congratulations to the company, really friendly and precise. The boat was new and we were really happy with it. After various searches that have not led to any results, we have found them, also operational this season. We will come back for sure. See you soon!!

Very nice experience that allows you to see enchanting places and enjoy an alternative day. The only thing I would like to point out is that in addition to the amount you see here on the app, relating to the daily rental, there is a mandatory insurance of €90 not included in the rental amount in order to deposit only €500 as a deposit, otherwise it becomes €1000 but in case of damages you may be asked for more, maybe it would be better to know this clearly in advance (maybe there would have been more convenient rentals) For the rest, the service is excellent. Small advice for the rental company: it would have been useful to have a map of the coves and beaches not to be missed and warnings for non-navigable areas etc. as I have been able to see in other rentals on other holidays. Anyway recommended!

Virginia does not answer calls or any questions. The donut was a lie and we lost 1 hour looking for the meet point which is not instructed in the offer. Tank outside in another port cause they trick you and it will be very expensive. Not to recommend.

We booked the Kardix and the truth is that it left us with a lot to be desired... without power steering and without gas it would stall at any moment, which bothered us quite a bit. The service was very good and the anchoring coves, both islands and archipelago, make you forget everything mentioned above!!

My experience with this boat rental company was extremely disappointing. The boat was generally in good condition and the staff on site (Virginia + boat boy) were friendly at first. However, we were not given sufficient instructions. Virginia knew that none of us had driven a boat before and this was handled very carelessly. The boat boy did show us how to start the engine or turn the boat, but how to operate the boat in tricky situations (e.g. strong waves or wind) was not discussed. The fact that the boat also has 40 HP and is driven by novice drivers on the open sea was irrelevant. There was also not enough information about which places you might not want to go to. Our destination was the Maddalena Islands. Firstly, it took a very long time to get there (2.5 hours). Secondly, the seabed there is very rocky. With waves and wind, it is very easy to get stuck there (which unfortunately happened to us). I wish we had been warned in advance about what it would mean to go there in this weather. Neither Virginia nor the boat boy complied with this obligation to inform. The company also tried to rip off customers and attach damage that was not caused by the drivers. This approach is unacceptable and shows a lack of professionalism and honesty. Take enough good quality photos of the entire boat, especially the propeller! Last but not least, we had to pay 180 euros because a rope got caught on the propeller in the open sea and we had to call for help. It is shocking that such assistance (20 minutes drive there, cut the rope, 20 minutes drive back) is so expensive and this is not mentioned in any way in the contracts. It was our own fault, which the customer must pay for accordingly. The contract does not indicate that such assistance is extra, nor how high it can be. In the end, according to the receipt, we paid 180 euros for the "extra" item - highly unprofessional. When we tried to find a solution with Virginia that would satisfy both parties, we were turned away with "I don't have time for that". All in all, this was a disappointing experience in which the safety and well-being of the customers was treated negligently. I therefore cannot recommend this boat rental company at all.

We booked the boat the day before and received a message late the evening before saying that the boat was not available. We were offered a smaller one for the same price + a free stand up puddle to borrow. When we arrived our boat was not ready. They had to clean it first, we couldn't leave until an hour later. There were no toilets on the jetty. We got the cool box without a lid because it was broken from the previous guests. The throttle on the boat didn't work properly either, the sun deck was also broken, and the anchor was unusable in the sand. The staff at the boat station were also very unfriendly and couldn't speak any English. We were disappointed with the company.

When we booked the boat we chose the option with a skipper and it showed no additional cost. After booking and paying and just double checking regarding the skipper with the agency through WhatsApp , we received a message that skipper was not included and moreover it was coming at an additional cost of 150 EUR that was not a pleasant surprise. After discussing with the agency and showing them the screenshots proving skipper included in the price at the reservation they still refused to cancel the reservation. So we ended up spending the time on the boat , that was overall really nice. But all the booking process was really not pleasant and stressful. We felt a bit scammed and powerless to prove our point.

Lovely boat and great day out but took a while for virginia to let us know where to check in was after messaging several times. Also the fuel prices are not transparent at all and very expensive as they calculate it themselves - took the same boat out in Cala gonone, refulled ourselves for eur 70 and got charged eur 140 here for a similar amount of driving. Something didn’t feel right and didn’t make sense with the prices they charged and we felt like we got ripped off with no way to check.

Nos engañaron! No we inform you that you will arrive 40 minutes later by having them notified and due to the sea conditions they will raise a 110€ extra cost that we "hizo" a 60€ rebate but we ask and we say that we will not cobra' him because we will lie engañaron con la gasolina, we said that we had gastado much more gasolina from which we consume and finally we said that the price of gasolina in the marina was 2'50€/l when you lie, in the site most dear seafarer is at 2,10€ we advise you that you ask very well in all conditions and that you need the photo of the gasolina level so that you do not engage us and if it is possible to repost the boat before embarking it, she does not go to ask for this offer option because this is the way she engages and stuffs. Unos sinvergüenzas. Llegamos tarde porque el mar cambio y hubo muchisimas olas y avisamos aún así no fueron personas .................................................... .................................................... .................................................... .................................................... ......................REPLY FROM VIRGINIA: We would like to clarify that despite your delay of more than 45 minutes, no penalty has been charged to you, even if the contract provides for it. Our boats are all equipped with satellite trackers and that day in the area where you were we had 2 other boats (like yours) which arrived punctually at 18:00 in the port, so the rough sea excuse doesn't hold up. It would have been better to notify with a phone call or message that you would like to do an extra hour, kindly asking if there was a difference to pay. As for fuel, if you go to the ground service station, the fuel served at the pump is €2.30 / L, you have chosen to sail throughout the archipelago of La Maddalena where, obviously, the more hours of navigation, the more rooms the consumption. If you would have refueled the boat before returning it would have been much better for us, to do this you had to be at the tank by 5pm or even earlier to queue and be 6pm in port. You made yourself 2 extra hours without paying anything and we also find such a review!

It would have been more than desirable to have been clarified that additional insurance only applies to Scjäden from €700 and that one is also liable for Schädeb. So we are now left with a €700 bill.
