We had an excellent experience renting this boat near Nice. Ewen was very responsive and easy to reach before the rental, and all instructions leading up to the trip were clear and well organised. Upon arrival, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. Ewen gave a thorough explanation of the boat and took photos of all important areas before departure, which were also emailed to me for transparency and peace of mind. He also provided useful local advice on where to go and which areas were best to explore, which made the trip even more enjoyable. Overall, everything was professional, straightforward and stress-free. A great experience from start to finish, and I would definitely recommend renting from Ewen. Thank you for helping make our day on the water so memorable!

We had a great time on our honeymoon. Karim took us around the riviera to multiple relaxing and beautiful spots. He laid out our picnic for us. He was easy to get along with and the boat was very nice. I was initially a little hesitant because it seemed like there were a lot of dingier tourist trap boats in Nice but this was a very elegant experience.

Our experience renting the catamaran was absolutely wonderful! Everyone was extremely happy and didn’t even want to leave the boat because it was so amazing. The owners were incredibly helpful, kind, and understanding. They handled hosting a large group effortlessly, which is a challenge for many companies. They showed us the most beautiful spots along the coast and took care of us in every way. We highly recommend them!

Oussama was absolutely fantastic and provided the best day at sea for my mom, cousin and myself. He went above and beyond in every aspect, and became our personal photographer. His boat was clean and well kept. Definitely a highlight of my mom’s 60th birthday France trip with memories to last a lifetime. Would recommend him to everyone, and would do it again in a heartbeat.
