boat hire in Arbatax · Desner — 520 - 11 (2022)

This crew was wonderful! So kind and helpful. Just a heads up, you do have to pay insurance if a woman is the primary person responsible for driving, but not if a man is going to be responsible 😂 We left out of Arbatax and went as far as Cala Biriola before turning back and slowly enjoying our stops along the way. Swimming up into the caves at Spiaggia degli Innamorati was our favorite stop. We bought a snorkel and goggles from them for 30 euros before we left (well worth it, you need them!), and we payed around 75 euros for gas when we got back, which was expected based on other reviews. Would 10/10 recommend this day trip and use this company again!

Everything was perfect! Great experience!

Great service and amazing activity! My husband and I had a great time and we can truly recommend booking a boat with Franceso. We never drove a boat so we were a little concerned but we received all instructions needed and at the end managed well :)

David was very nice guy who talked us through everything and made us feel safe. This was possibly one of the greatest experiences we have had the coastline is heaven

Very good service and guys who work there are very good as well. Definitely recommend this company. They help with everything, perfect explanation about boat and places where to stop and what to see before boat trip. Renting their boat you can go to many beautiful places. Is about 17 beautiful beaches. Is your choice which one you choose and stay longer or you can choose yourself go to all of them one by one and stay for a short time. Petrol little bit expensive but again is your choice how fast you go. They will explain you how to save money on petrol, what speed to use.

Briljant day

Professional service, nice and welcoming. Boat in great condition. Make sure you notice that 520 do not have fresh water (so pick a larger one if its important to you).

Everything about this was wonderful. Martina was a very friendly and accommodating person. Made the entire process easy and enjoyable. Good explanation before we went and was always available via WhatsApp for help. Thank you so much! Don't think twice, do it!

Great boat and the team were very helpful showing how to operate the boat and giving us all the local spots and information about the island! Would 100 percent reccomend!!!! (:

It was absolutely excellent! Excellent advice at the beginning, good English, and therefore easy communication. Great tips were also given. It was convenient that Francesco drove us to the gas station at the end – we were a bit worried about how to do it. Help was also offered – if anything happens, just call or WhatsApp. We felt completely safe. You should budget around €65 for fuel – that's enough for the entire trip to Cala Luna and back, including the fun of the ride ;)

We had a fantastic day on the water. Francesco explained everything well and was very friendly; I would definitely recommend it. Of course, you should be aware that the entire route is very touristy, so there's a lot going on on the water and in the bays. But all in all, it was a successful day.

Everything was great. Francesco was very kind and explained everything in detail. I definitely recommend it and will definitely come back on our next visit!

Beautiful ??

A wonderful welcome. We had a wonderful day at sea. Thank you!?✌️?

Everything was fantastic: the instructions before leaving, the advice, the location is spectacular. A wonderful outing, lots of boats.

Everything went smoothly. High waves make it a bit crowded on the small boats, but otherwise everything was great :) We would definitely do it again. At the end, we'll add about €50-60 for fuel :)

We were warmly welcomed at the boat, and the instructions were clear, making it a great experience to get out on the water! The boat is a bit different than the one pictured, but similar and in good condition. Clear communication beforehand. Highly recommended!

The boat was not the one in the photo because it is actually a company with more than 80 boats but the boat we had was also very good and the welcome from the staff was perfect. A 40hp boat is more than enough to enjoy and visit all the coves!

Gorgeous

Good to very good service! Communication via clickabsboat.com went well, but could have been a bit more precise here and there! But all minor things! On-site instructions and rental property very good! Highly recommended for a day trip along the Ogliastra coast!

all the best, thank you!

Very good service and area to visit

We had a beautiful day. The guys at the dock were really welcoming and professional. The boat is in excellent condition and very clean. I absolutely recommend!

Everything was great, nice welcome and good instructions! No cooler though, as stated.

A great trip! We were very well instructed and would recommend renting from Francesco! Gasoline costs were 90 euros - we often gave full throttle and drove the route to Calla Luna.

Everything worked wonderfully, can only be recommended.

We had a very nice welcome and briefing. The boat was as described and in good shape. We had a really great day and everything went smoothly with the return. We will definitely come back, very worth it!

Very nice experience and good instruction!

Everyone was very nice and helpful. It was a great day and we would book it here again in a heartbeat. Many thanks.

Everything great! Nice crew. We recommend…

Everything great

Everything was fine! Gladly again!

Good boat and good explanations at the start! Thank you for the weather advice that made us have a great day!

Compliant boat, price adjusted to the market. Friendly and helpful staff.

all the best!

We had a great day with desner. We rented a 520 boat with 40 horsepower. It is very easy to drive we had never driven a boat and Francisco explained to us how to handle it and in 5 min we managed to handle it. In addition, the agency has a map of the coasts on which the most beautiful places are numbered, it is really very practical. We were up to point 13 by making 4 stops but no more otherwise we ran out of time. We saw incredible landscapes! We left at the end of July, the weather was very nice and very very hot, so beware of sunburn, you really need to wear sunscreen regularly. Small negative point: the price of gasoline. At the end of the day we return to the port and an employee gets on the boat to go and put gas with us: 112€ whereas desner had told us between 40 and 80€…

Great day! Impeccable welcome Small downside…. + 65€ of fuel ?

Top ! Clear explanations before departure, boat easy to sail for the first time.

We did the dinghy ride on Saturday 1st July we were 6 guys, great experience.

Provident staff, good explanations before taking the boat. An exceptional day. A big thank-you .

That was a great experience! Ricardo was super friendly and explained everything important to us. Leaving the harbor a bit tense (without a skipper) and out to sea. The Desner boat was very comfortable (lying area at the front, seats at the back) and also very fast. The sunshade is also very useful once you have found a good spot to anchor. There is also a cool box that keeps the drinks reasonably cool. 150€ for 1 day (leaving at 9, back at 5) and approx. 50€ for the petrol was an amount I was happy to pay for the great experience.

Nice team, boat was in immaculate condition and the Orosei coast was to die for. We had a great day ?

They charged me 60 euros for a broken zipper that we had not broken and they took advantage of it without proof

All in all it was a perfect day, thanks to the great offer and great organization. Everything very simple. Even without previous knowledge, we were able to steer the boat without any problems, as we were well informed by the crew. Thank you very much for this great experience!
