    Second visit, 8 years after the first
    We had a fun filled night out with Captain Meredith and her pirate crew. We were two adults together with 3 and 4 year olds. The queue to pay the port tax was frustrating but unlike my last visit 8 years ago there was no pirate themed waiting area where you could get face makeup and have a drink. The seating on stools for those on the cheap seats was as I remember it. A shame the more expensive seats were only half occupied. Perhaps they should be slightly more affordable. And there was no consideration made for those with children. The entertainment, and Captain Meredith herself, was great fun. Funny and despite being in Spanish and English everything was understandable. Maybe the pirate ship and costumes could be made a little more authentic, but they are not just putting on a show but working hard as waiters so it's understandable. Service was with a laugh and smile, drinks flowed and the food buffet was fine. Not gourmet food. More hotel buffet. The arrangements for getting food from the top deck and then descending ladders to the seating area are influenced by practicalities rather than design, but are particularly awkward for those with small children. Speaking of whom, they enjoyed it. The older child was bewildered at times and the younger was a bit overwhelmed. But overall, they had fun. The highlight - the mid ocean boarding of the other pirate ship and sword fight - was thrilling and looked very dangerous. Credit to the crew! But the whole thing went on a bit long and there were times when the people on the boat where there was no sword fight could not see anything. Overall, a great night out.

    Well worth every penny
    Well worth every penny! I and my wife went this excursion on the day we arrived in. We were exhausted but yet they still made us get up and have fun! :) Charlie approached us in the line saying we can upgrade to vip if we buy a bottle of drink. If you are the kind who like a bit special treatment I suggest to upgrade. Charlie was great he was our waiter and our glass thanks to him was never empty! Go Charlie… Food was okay. If you are looking for a gourmet, not the place. But steak was delicious and sides were okay! No delays on service All the show members were amazingly fun and professional especially we liked pinpinella :) he will come pick on you a lot:) Show was really good and fun we would recommend and would definitely come back :)
    Thank you for your kind comments, we are so happy to hear about your experience with our show and with our pirates, Charlie is one of the best, just like pimpinela, comments like yours always push us to be better and to deliver the best show every day. Thank you for sailing with us, and we will be waiting for your return

It is basically a party boat… there is a small… very small show of pirates fighting. I would not recommend for families that have small children or kids that do not enjoy dancing. Food was average, staff was friendly. Don’t forget to include docking fee $15 per person which is paid when you enter…

I cannot for the life of me understand the gushing reviews others have given this dreadful waste of money. $350 for my family of four for basically a dance party with a drinking contest, crappy entertainment, and almost inedible food. My family, which included by 22 and 15 year old daughters, pretty much hated every minute of this. I promise I’m not one of these sour pusses or negative people that just give horrible reviews...I almost never do...but I literally couldn’t find hardly anything positive to say. My advice is save your money!!!!!!

Definitely not what was advertised. We brought our children thinking this was just that a fun, interactive, family style event. The dock on the way up to the ship was the best part. Pictures, swords and a friendly welcome. Then, it’s everything once you board that I would not recommend. They say max capacity is 280 and boy do they hit the 280 mark! So incredibly crowded that you can barely enjoy being there. The food was less than to be desired and then upon arrival there was an additional surcharge for food in person but they will not include that “surcharge” in their total price while paying online for tickets. The kids got about 3 minutes max of interaction with the crew then they started drinking competitions and full out club style dance parties the rest of the night. They took away all the seats so you were now shoulder to shoulder for damn near two hours on a boat. They just anchored and you are stuck. All in all, I would not consider this “family friendly”. I just can’t understand who they are marketing to?! The ads and theme suggest family and the experience suggests 18-30 club goers. They are trying to do both and it’s so far from a home run. We will not be repeat customers.

The show was mediocre at best, the food was average and after being drug up on the floor to dance as we went to leave someone had thrown away the photo we had paid for. Nobody would help or make reconciliation. Don’t recommend at all.

They should not let so many customers onto the boat. There was to many people and the actors could not even perform properly because of the lack of space. It took 30 minutes to receive any drinks. They also need to update their sound system because you really can not follow what is going on. They gave us really uncomfortable stalls to sit on for the 4 hours. The staff seemed very unprofessional reading their lines from paper. Not recommend for children because adult drinking games took place,

I was not impressed at all. The show was very boring, they just dance some boring songs and they fight for a little bit, and there supposed to be a war between the ships but couple shots and that was it. To expensive don’t bother going do something better. The only good thing was the food.

It was so fun! We went on the night cruise. Would not recommend for very little ones as it is long and you don't eat until around 8. They are really working hard, from your personal pirate (ours was Peter - he's awesome) running around getting you drinks to the pirates on the stage putting on a two hour show. Get there early to see the band.

It's about four hours or so. It's in English and Spanish but sometimes they just speak Spanish. It's ok, we still got the gist. Would recommend for 12 and up.

Food is good, we were vegetarian and accommodated. Eat a big lunch, you won't eat until late.

Thank you for having us ❤️.

Our family along with another decided to do this pirate ship and boy am I glad we did. It was the most fun. The food is amazing!! And our waiter did not let our drinks get empty he was amazing (valouz) our kids age 11-6 all had the best time. Honestly everyone on the ship was having a ball. You must do this you will be so glad you did. The pirates are amazing.

We went on a family adventure on Captain Hook's ship and we enjoyed it very much. It was all inclusive so we had a delicious dinner plus all you can drink, from pop to cocktails and beer. We got the VIP area, where we had the view to the ocean and also the perfect spot to enjoy the show that the ship provides. From fun games, dances, to swordplay and firework show at the end of the adventure. Great way to end your vacation!

A fun evening activity. However once they take all the chairs away you must stand the rest of the evening. The kids were both so tired after a day on the beach we had to take the to the dining room to sit.
We missed some of the show. In retrospect would go back but at an earlier time if the kids are along.
The entertainment was top notch, the actors really got into character.
Also I was surprised how good the food was! It was one of the best we had on the trip, no joke.
