We spend an amazing day on Danilo’s Boat. Communication with him was good, he replied to all our questions really fast and made the booking very easy. Sadly he wasn’t there the day, his colleague Alessandra gave us a short instruction. She seemed annoyed and not motivated. Nevertheless we had an excellent boat day. Good to know is that you won’t need a full tank, even if you drive a lot around even in full speed. We had some trouble parking the boat in the Harbour cause the boat slots are quite small, Danilo came up with a quick solution and some guys from the Harbour helped us. 10/10 would recommend
The communication and organization were excellent. The briefing and service on-site were also great. Unfortunately, the boat was a bit dirty, but it wasn’t a big issue. However, the anchor was missing, so we could only tie up to the available buoys and couldn’t anchor in the open sea. I would definitely book through Danilo again.
We had the best day ever. We were running late and they were so accommodating. We used a captain and he showed us all the best places. You would be doing yourself a disservice if you don’t book with Danilo if you are in Catania!
Danilo was super quick to respond and very communicative. The boat was perfect and great value for money. Alessandra was super helpful and kind. We had a great day out and would recommend everyone to book with Danilo.
Danilo is a great host! Was very helpful and welcoming! The radio on the boat was broken, that is the only negative thing!
A wonderful experience! The staff was very frienly and helpful. Thanks and best regards Birgit
Great service. Easy to deal with. No messing.
Had a very good day on this boat👍
We had unpleasant experience with Alessandra, first she been late with 1h, no indication for pick up, only direction to the marina, wich is pretty wide, when I asked for indication she send again directions for marina. After she was very late for 1h, she passed us without greeting us or guide to office, she went to get a coffee and when she came back she was just looking at us even though we sent a picture with us at the location. We asked her if she is Alessandra and then she answered: “yes, why are you not at the spot that I gave you?” And she gave us just the location of the entire port, where at least 5 check points. When we got to the boat the cold water shower didn t worked, she explained all the instructions in a rude attitude and asked if we had any questions again in a way that you wouldn’t want to ask anything. We came back earlier with half a tank of gas and on the reviews was said that we would give us back the money left for the remaining gas and also the same rude attitude, not familiar with customer service at all. At least the boy helping her was nicer. Owner's response: It is the first time with this kind of feedback from a customer. First of all, thank you for your opinion. We respect everyone's feedback. However, I want to explain something regarding it: 1) Alessandra text you at 07.52 in order to inform you on her delay "problem with car, arrive at 10.00 - sorry, please you can stay out one hour more". At 7.53 you wrote "ok, no problem". 2) Regarding the place of meeting: generally we sent the location (gps coordinates) one day before or we receive a message in order to have further information. Sorry if this message -for the first time- has not arrived to your mobile; 3) Hand shower: the day before, due to Etna's black sand, the engine became out of order: we had repair the same day of your rent, in the evening (sorry, but it is not easier to find the electrician ready for us at 8 o clock). It was the first time in several years. 4) Fuel: we don't give back money for the fuel always. If you have read a feedback of another customer (Crish) this not means automatically refund of the difference; Last but not least: Alessandra, at the end of the rent ask you the feedback of the day and you did't say nothing regarding complains. Furthermore, during the day (or at the end), you you could call me for any question/trubles. I didn't receive any calls. Anyway, I hope to see you in the future in order to show that your bad experience was the first one (after more than hundreds of rent) and we hope the last one.
We Had a great time with the boat we rented from Danilo , also Allesandra was very willing and cooperative toexplain everything you need and wanted to know. I very recomand Danilo and co for renting a boat . SUPER !!! Daniel
The boat was absolutely amazing! The communication went smoothly and the spot was easy to find. We had the best time ever on the boat, discovering the open sea and different coastal towns. The only problem we experienced is the following: when opening the gate to the anchor of the boat, it looks like it’s already connected with the rope. Mind you: it’s not! This will not be told in the beginning, so it’s something to keep in mind. Overall, it was an amazing experience that I would definitely recommend. Even when you don’t have any experience with sailing!
I recently rented a boat from Danilo in Catania, and it was an outstanding experience. The boat was in pristine condition, and the price was unbeatable. Danilo’s and Alessandras attention to detail and customer service were top-notch, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable. They even refunded the cost of unused petrol, which was a nice touch. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an exceptional affordable boating adventure!
Es war toll.
Good experience! We went from aci trezza to riposto and back. Had some minor motor issues after lifting the anchor but no major complaints.
Really great
Our boat rental experience with Danilo was truly memorable. His communication was straightforward and efficient, ensuring any minor issues, like the fuel pump hiccup, were swiftly addressed. The rapid solution showcased his commitment to a seamless experience for his patrons. Alessandra, our able companion on this voyage, was both helpful and supportive. With her by helping us , the journey was all the more enjoyable. As we sailed along the coast and enjoyed refreshing dips in the water, the afternoon unfolded beautifully.
very good boat
Great day out! Super smooth organisation
Thank you Danielo for the amazing experience! Everything was perfect!
Amazing expirence ! Thank you !
Danilo was amazing, I was very sick at the start of my holiday and last minute had to rearrange the day. He was amazing and changed the day for me so we could still enjoy the boat trip when I was feeling better. We had an amazing time on the boat, very spacious and clean and we had fun jumping into the sea and driving around. Would highly reccomend.
We had an amazing time on Danilo's boat. We took the boat for a day and everything was great. Danilo always replies within minutes for any questions we had and Alessandra was very welcoming.
An excellent experience! Definitely recommend. Danilo was easy to contact and we met Alessandra at the port who was amazing!
Danilo and Alessandra helped us to have a truly incredible experience!
Great little boat …. reliable and comfortable. Great service and communication from the owners and support team.

We booked the boat with 4 people and a skipper. We had an amazing day with Danilo, the communication was great and we were very warm welcomed. Danilo drove us were ever we wanted and told us a lot about the history of the different places. It was just amazing and we would totally recommend it!:)
