The boat was new, clean and easy to drive, had built in bluetooth speakers, mini fridge and a shower head. Communication with Nico was great, would definitely rent again and suggest you to do the same.

We had an amazing experience renting this boat! It was spacious, comfortable, and perfect for our group of six, with enough room for even a few more people. The boat was clean, well-maintained, and made our trip really enjoyable. The price was also excellent and offered great value for the experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable and affordable boat rental in Taormina!

Highly recommended. Although we had a mechanical problem as soon as we left the port, they quickly arrived with a newer boat and replaced it for us promptly.

We had a very good charter with Matteo! The weather was not the best but Matteo took us to some good spots for us to snorkel and relax in the water. Would recommend 10/10
