Went with two kids and the hubby. Crew was soooo patient with my youngest, who kept asking questions about every fish. The banana boat ride was a hit, both kiddos giggled the whole way. Orange Bay gets crowded fast, so we skipped the beanbags and looked for shells instead. Lunch was yummy and they had veggie options. The best part? The team sang happy birthday to my son with a tiny cake! Still smiling.

Took my mum for her birthday and honestly it was SUCH a good choice. The crew had this chill vibe, but also made sure we were always comfy. Snorkeling was cooool, we saw parrotfish and I got a bit sunburned (bring extra sunscreen, trust me). Only thing: Orange Bay was busy after noon—go early if you can! Lunch was way better than I thought, like, proper grilled fish. Would do it again for sure.

Not bad but not amazing either. The crew tried hard but it was sooooo busy on our trip, especially at the snorkeling site. Food was okay. Massage was a nice touch, but only lasted like 8 min. Wouldn’t do it again in high season.

Fun trip, but they could space out the activities more. Felt like we were always moving to the next thing. Crew was funny though, and the boat is really nice. Snorkeling spot was amazing, saw a moray eel (creepy but cool).

Came with my husband for our anniversary. Crew surprised us with a small cake, sooo sweet!! Everything was super clean, and the snorkeling guides were professional. The boat is modern too. Loved every minute.

This luxury Red Sea escape combines island time, easy snorkeling, and onboard indulgence—ideal for travelers who want a relaxed yet elevated day at sea.
