点评:I booked a 4 hour AM charter on 12/27 for 15 family members who were all staying at the Dreams Jade Resort adjacent to Marina El Cid. This was a first time vacation for our large family to an "all-inclusive" destination and I thought an excursion for the group would be a great addition to the week.
The booking process was extremely easy, with a clear and complete website that correct detailed the costs and content of each package. Matt from Sales followed up quickly with questions I had in regards to the booking and was extremely helpful to give me the info I needed to finalize my decision on booking.
Once I arrived at the Cancun airport, I was greeted with a detailed and informative text from the Paradise charter team on where to go and what to bring, allowing me to focus on relaxing and enjoying the early part of our vacation. Maria El Cid is reachable via a 10 minute walk on a serene ocean side path from the Dreams Jade Resort or via taxi from other area locations.
On the day of the charter we arrived 15 minutes early to finalize arrangements and were escorted to the boat, where we met our guide Frank and the rest of the 4 man crew who would be taking care of us for the day. After a brief safety discussion we set off. The crew began making drinks immediately and answering any questions we had about the boat and area. Frank was extremely friendly and accommodating throughout the journey.
We hugged the coast (about a half mile off) for about an hour until we came to a spot nearby Playa del Carmen where we snorkeled and swam off the boat for a good while. The crew allowed the kids (and adults) to jump off the boat and provided a floating raft to swim onto. During this time the crew prepared some amazing cerviche, pica del gallo & guacamole which was plentiful and consumed quickly by all.
The snorkeling was fun with sightings of a moray eel, stingray and multiple varieties of striped fish. The kids enjoyed diving and swimming more, however, and our only regret was that there was more than 15-20 minutes of that activity built into the schedule. Another hour backtracking back to Marina El Cid amongst gorgeous views completed the journey.
The service was excellent and the day was a highlight of a great week long vacation. To have the full boat chartered for my large family with full usage was key for us vs large group boat partial charters which we past throughout the day. I would strongly recommend using Paradise Catamarans if you are staying at the Dreams Jade or surrounding resorts. 5 stars for sure!
翻译:我于 12 月 27 日上午为 15 名家庭成员预订了 4 小时的包机,他们都住在 Marina El Cid 附近的 Dreams Jade Resort。这是我们大家庭第一次去“全包”目的地度假,我认为全家一起出游会为这一周增添不少乐趣。
预订流程非常简单,网站清晰完整,正确详细说明了每个套餐的费用和内容。销售部的 Matt 迅速跟进了我关于预订的问题,并非常乐于助人,为我提供了最终确定预订决定所需的信息。
抵达坎昆机场后,Paradise 包机团队向我发送了详细而翔实的短信,告诉我去哪里玩以及带什么东西,让我可以专注于放松和享受假期的早期阶段。从 Dreams Jade Resort 沿着宁静的海边小路步行 10 分钟即可到达 Maria El Cid,也可以从其他地区乘坐出租车到达。
包船当天,我们提前 15 分钟到达,最后确定安排,然后被护送到船上,在那里我们遇到了我们的导游 Frank 和其他 4 名船员,他们将在当天照顾我们。在简短的安全讨论后,我们出发了。船员们立即开始制作饮料,并回答我们关于船和该地区的任何问题。在整个旅程中,Frank 都非常友好和乐于助人。
我们沿着海岸(大约半英里外)游了大约一个小时,直到我们来到 Playa del Carmen 附近的一个地方,在那里我们浮潜并在船上游泳了一段时间。船员允许孩子(和成人)跳下船,并提供了一个漂浮筏供他们游泳。在此期间,船员准备了一些美味的酸橘汁腌鱼、pica del gallo 和鳄梨酱,份量很足,每个人都很快吃完了。
浮潜很有趣,可以看到海鳗、黄貂鱼和多种条纹鱼。然而,孩子们更喜欢潜水和游泳,我们唯一的遗憾是,这些活动在日程安排中安排了超过 15-20 分钟。再花一个小时回到 Marina El Cid,欣赏美丽的景色,结束了这次旅程。
服务非常好,这一天是一周假期的亮点。我们租了整艘船供我的大家庭使用,这对我们来说很重要,而我们一整天都在使用大团体的部分船只包租。如果您住在 Dreams Jade 或周边度假村,我强烈建议您使用 Paradise Catamarans。绝对 5 星!
