Overall rating
Our experience with Joemar, Mae, and Nixon on the boat was nothing short of perfection! The team did everything they possibly could to ensure our trip was everything we could have dreamed of. Captain Joemar was the utmost professional—always checking in, making sure the itinerary was exactly as we wanted, and providing us with welcome updates on the plans and destinations. Mae’s warmth and friendliness always made us feel at home, and she cooked the best meals we’ve had in the Philippines. Nixon was a complete all-rounder, attending to our needs in every way and always ensuring we were comfortable and enjoying our experience. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better team to make our trip one to remember—their professionalism, care, and all-round attentiveness really made it special. In addition, we were really impressed with the upfront, during, and post-trip communication from Thomas and Kate, who ensured our preferences were met and that any questions were answered quickly. The tour itself was spectacular, the boat was pristine, and the trip allows you to see some of the most stunning scenery in the Philippines in perfect privacy and comfort. Thank you to the whole team for making our trip perfect. We would strongly recommend this experience to anyone!
We had a wonderful stay on Thomas’ boat. The crew was incredibly welcoming and so sweet with my babies. The meals on the boat were delicious!! Everything was fresh. We had lobster, fish, shrimp, BBQ meat! We spent three nights on the boat out of our 14 days in Palawan. We have to say that the 3 nights on the boat were the most enjoyable and memorable. We strongly recommend sailing in Coron! That was the best experience for our family! Jayson was very flexible, he dropped us directly to our Resort for the rest of our holidays. Davin and Maine were very nice! We will definitely come back! Thank you so much!
We had an amazing time with Jayson and Davin! We moored at some beautiful spots at the right time before they got crowded. We were able to enjoy lots of snorkeling and paddle boarding. Transfers were easy and well coordinated. The boat was in perfect condition and very comfortable. The food Davin cooked was over the top! So fresh, delicious and lots of it! We highly recommend.
An amazing experience
Boat was clean and in perfect condition. Staff was amazing, polite and attentive at all times.
Our family of four spent an amazing 4 days/ 3 nights on Starry Night traveling around the Calamian islands around Coron. Jayson (skipper) and Davin (chef and snorkeling guide) were excellent hosts. The boat is beautifully fitted out and the quarters very comfortable. Only downside was that actual sailing was kept to a minimum, but this may have been due to prevailing weather conditions. Would highly recommend.
It was incredible!! Henry and Davin were amazing. They catered to everything we needed and made the most delicious food (to the point where we had to skip lunch one day because we were so well fed). Thank you for giving us the experience of a lifetime. We loved every second of it ❤️
Perfect experience! Everything was as described, and the boat was in excellent condition. A real plus: the air conditioning on board, an absolute must in the Philippines! The crew was great, with a special mention for Davin, who was able to respond to all our requests with professionalism and kindness. Impeccable service from start to finish. You can go there with your eyes closed, I recommend 100%!
