From start to finish, I can’t say enough about this company and the experience we had on their boat! We booked this trip for a group of 12 adults for a business/rewards trip for our sales team. Kris was prompt and super quick to get back to me when I inquired about booking them for a half day cruise. She was so easy to work with and went out of her way to make us feel taken care of, before we even stepped foot on the boat! She even arranged to have us picked up by boat at Kaibo, because it was closer to where we were staying on the island. They got all of our additional drink requests beforehand so we didn’t have to bring on the boat which was super convenient.
Then the actual boat trip!!! Wow. Marie, Van, and Ben made us feel welcomed and at home from the moment we made it to the dock. They went out of their way all morning to make sure we had drinks, snacks, and anything we needed to have a great time. Marie was serving us delicious rum punch and even making us drinks with some of the additional beverages we had brought on board. They took us to stingray city and gave us a private, personalized experience with the stingrays. Then we went to starfish point and hung out and ran the jet ski for while. By the end of it, we felt like they were friends and were so thankful to have them with us chartering the boat.
By far, this was the highlight of our trip. Our only regret was not booking a full day trip with them!! Next time, we will definitely not make that mistake. Look no more, seriously. Book with five star charters!!!
We're so happy you had a wonderful cruise with us! We look forward to hosting you again for that full-day trip! Thank you so much for this kind review.
Our family had been in Cayman's for a week, to celebrate a significant wedding anniversary. Our group included two seniors, three sons in their 40's and their wives, partners and grandchildren. We booked a half day morning tour as a wrap-up event for our trip.
Everything was spectacular. The Five Star web site is meticulous and the booking process was easy and smooth. They picked us up at our hotel - chauffeured us to the yacht club - and we set sail. We went to Starfish Point and Rum Point, and we went snorkeling, jet skiing, and swimming with the stingrays. The crew (Ben, Van and Marie) were fantastic on the boat, and Van encouraged us all to hold and kiss a stingray. When we were not busy with activities, Marie fed us scrumptious foods and a variety of beverages.
Everyone agreed, this was one of the most wonderful things we have ever done as a family. Thank you "Five Star". If we could give you ten stars - we would.
We are honored to have been part of your family's celebration and are so glad we could help create another happy family memory! Thank you so much for sharing this review, and we hope to see you again!
A must do! This was the highlight of our vacation. They know how to take care of their guests. Marie, Ben and Van were all wonderful and very accommodating. Everything from the pick up service, to the champagne and yummy snacks on the boat were great. We visited stingray city which is a must! The crew made us all feel comfortable in the water and showed us how to hold and feed the stingrays. They captured some amazing picture for us (so we could just focus on enjoying everything! Which was so nice). We had our 2 year old and 7 month old with us. They had life jackets for them and provided everything we could possibly need. They even sent sweet little toys home with us for the kids. The boat is pristine and this is definitely a memory we will have forever. Would book with them again in a heartbeat!
We really appreciate you taking the time to write this review, and we are so happy you had a great day on the water with our crew. We hope you enjoy your photos and memories of this trip for a long time!
My wife and I are both small business owners that visited Grand Cayman last week for a much-needed vacation. I found Five Star Charters when searching for boat charters online and booked about a month before our visit (I recommend pre-booking bc they are busy!). Their website made the experience seem incredible and the reviews were great but I am always cautiously optimistic about these kinds of things. Well Five Star Charters blew us away with an absolutely wonderful experience! From the moment we were picked up at our hotel by their courtesy transportation, I was impressed. You could tell it was a professionally run operation by their branded van and professional uniforms. We discussed our vision for the day with Marie and then were greeted at the dock by Captain Ben who escorted us to the boat. The boat itself is gorgeous---absolutely pristine and beautifully appointed. We were served cold towels and champagne as we ventured out. My wife was in heaven! Our day was filled with healthy and delicious veggie and fruit platters, homemade rum punch (plus an abundance of other beverage options), sunbathing, snorkeling, jet skiing, playing with the stingrays and starfish and being pampered and entertained by Captain Ben, First Mate Van and the wonderful Hostess Marie. We ended the day with a delicious surf and turf barbecue prepared on the boat by Van and then headed back to the dock as the sun was setting. Now that we're back home, my wife and I are still dreaming and talking about our magical Five Star day. I scored big points with her for finding such an incredible experience for our vacation. We loved it so much we hope to do it again!
We're so glad your experience with Five Star Charters was wonderful from start to finish! Our crew really appreciates your kind words, and we hope to have you back again soon!
Fabulous Five Star Charters luxury day cruise! With our excellent crew, we navigated the crowd at Sting Ray City and had a special experience playing with these beautiful creatures! It was so great to have a platform lower us nto the water and just jump in!
Marie, Ben and Van made this a delightful, fun experience as Marie was capturing beautiful pictures for our memories!
We then went to Starfish Point and started our luxurious Champagne party --with yummy appetizers, Veuve Cliquot and amazingly clear waters! No problem jumping in the water and holding the beautiful pink starfish! We swam around until twilight while Van and Marie began preparing our elegant barbecue dinner--lobster tails, steak and so delicious sides --welcoming a gorgeous sunset on the water. Captain Ben talked about the beautiful sights all around us--so special to have knowledgeable, creative and professional people enhance this luxurious experience!
Amazing charter, crew and day!
The entire Five Star Charters team appreciates your review! We're very glad that our boat, food and drink, and crew all contributed to a special and memorable day for you. We hope to host you again!
This was a great and memorable family experience. The crew was the best, Ben, Marie and Van. Hopefully we can do it again sometime. We had an infant, toddler, adults and seniors and i think everyone had just as much fun. If you are on the edge about going , do it, you wont regret it.
Thank you for sharing this review! We love hosting families of all ages and delivering an experience that makes it special for everyone. We hope to see you again!
