We had a great time with the boat Poseidon, which worked perfectly and was just as described. The boat was extremely clean and in great shape. Benjamin was very friendly, and clear with his instructions. We would definitely rent again from Benjamin!

What a fantastic day, instructions very clear. Very friendly and helpful. Boat nice and clean and well maintained. New motor gave us the peace of mind that we weren’t going to break down. Highly recommended, what wonderful way to experience the lake.

Frederic is a gentleman, he was a pleasure to deal with. The boat was in perfect condition and spotless and fast. The fuel is pricey but its beyond his control. I would recommend this boat and Frederic.

Brilliant experience - great communications from Anais throughout. The boat was immaculate - clearly just renovated and in superb condition. The mooring location, 20 mins drive from Annecy, is quiet, and perfectly placed in the middle of the lake. Anais’s welcome and handover brief was clear and concise and gave us everything we needed to know. The various water sport toys she kindly supplied were all in very good condition. …and boating on Lane Annecy for an afternoon - a full 5* wow. Would wholly recommend the location, the boat and Anais.

We had an incredible evening with Édouard—one of the highlights of our trip. We will always remember it. We sailed and enjoyed the lake, good food, drinks, and excellent company. It was perfect. Thank you!

Incredible time on Lake Annecy thanks to Francois! He was incredibly enthusiastic, fun, and super patient. He spent time to teach those in our party who didn’t know how to wakeboard and wakesurf. His energy made the whole experience unforgettable. The boat was also fabulous. Highly recommend and will be using him again in the future!

Very calm lake from the morning, winds sometimes changeable, calm at the beginning then a little more sustained at the end of the afternoon
Lac très calme dès le matin, vents parfois changeants, calme au début puis un peu plus soutenu en fin d'après midi

Once at sea, we were amazed by the beauty of the surrounding landscapes. The lake, with its turquoise waters and green banks, offers a breathtaking panorama. We sailed peacefully, taking the time to admire the nature around us. Maxim had recommended several stops, and we decided to explore some isolated coves, perfect for a refreshing swim.
Une fois en mer, nous avons été émerveillés par la beauté des paysages environnants. Le lac, avec ses eaux turquoise et ses rives verdoyantes, offre un panorama à couper le souffle. Nous avons navigué paisiblement, prenant le temps d’admirer la nature qui nous entourait. Maxim nous avait recommandé plusieurs arrêts, et nous avons décidé d’explorer quelques criques isolées, parfaites pour une baignade rafraîchissante.
