Catamaran Sailing in Lanzarote

Beautiful trip

I had such a lovely trip! Thank you to everyone for being so welcoming! My friend was unwell so i had to go on my own. I met lots of people and the drinks were great, the food was great and they made me some rice as i cannot eat gluten. The crew were excellent! Gorgeous views and so much fun going down the slide! Thank you again, i will definitely do this again with a friend! Dionne x

Nice boat ride but disappointing

While the boat was very enjoyable there are things about this trip that simply do not meet the 5 star rating it has. First we were met by a guide from the previous trip who was quite arrogant and provided no detail about what to expect or even welcome us. Once onboard we were divided into groups for a briefing where we were told to move multiple times because it was just disorganized and felt like hearing cattle. The boat ride to the snorkeling location was nice and there where drinks and fruit provided which was good. At the stop location we were briefly told we have 2 hours stop then head back. The paddle board and other gear included was a free for all and basically there is no chance of getting an opportunity to share given the group is 40 in size and there is no organization. The food for lunch was basic. It was just pasta and a spoon of sauce from a supermarket with a basic salad and some boiled potatoes. When getting ready to return the crew got angry at people getting in their way and at the end of the trip they helped people who had reserved a coach back but everyone else was just left to their own devices with no questions asked. If you want to charge nearly 200 euro for a family of 3 at least be welcoming, be proactive to ensure everyone is ok and ask if anyone needs help. I have been on m any boats around the globe and this one needs improvement on the hospitality side for sure.

Response from the operator: Hi Chris, We’re very happy to hear that you enjoyed the boat and the sailing itself. At Catlanza, we really do pride ourselves on providing a great experience for everyone on board. We have a very international, multilingual crew and boarding can sometimes be a busy part of the excursion, as we welcome everyone, organise the different language groups and complete the necessary safety briefing before departure. Once we leave the marina, however, there are four hours to relax and enjoy being at sea. There is also quite a lot included in those four hours. At anchor we have snorkelling, paddle boards, kayaks and our slide available, as well as plenty of time simply to swim and enjoy the water. With a larger group, everyone naturally cannot use the same equipment at exactly the same time, so occasionally it is better to wait a little and enjoy another activity in the meantime. Regarding the lunch, the food we serve on board is intentionally simple and fresh, designed to complement the sailing experience. Our Italian pasta is served with a delicious vegetarian tomato sauce prepared with fresh vegetables and Parmesan, accompanied by salad, Canarian potatoes with mojo and fresh fruit. We use quality ingredients, locally sourced whenever possible, and it is something that consistently receives very positive feedback from our guests. I was interested to read that you felt members of our crew were angry with guests. I shared this with the team, as courtesy and looking after our guests are extremely important to us, and they were genuinely surprised and concerned that their manner had been perceived that way. They are a very experienced, friendly and caring crew, although during busy moments when preparing the boat to leave the anchorage, communication can sometimes be more direct as they need to make sure everyone is safe and the boat is ready to sail. At the end of the excursion, the crew gather at the disembarking to personally say goodbye to everyone, guests who have booked our transport are directed to their buses, while those who have made their own travel arrangements are free to leave from Puerto Calero. Thank you again for sailing with us and for taking the time to share your thoughts, as we continually work to make the Catlanza experience the best it can be. We’re pleased that you enjoyed the boat and your time at sea, and we hope to see you on board again ⛵️

Best Boat Trip I've Ever Been On!

We booked the Catamaran boat trip as a family of 15. We had adults, elderly people, teenagers, and young children in our group and every one of us had an amazing experience. The boat was not overly packed, which was great. We had so much space to lounge around while sailing the ocean. However, the thing that made this boat trip different to every other boat trip I've been on, was that it was not just a boat trip that you sit down and stare into the ocean for 4 hours. They had activities on board! This made a normal boat trip into something different. A lot of fun! We kayaked from the boat, we paddle boarded from the boat, and we snorkelled from the boat. Oh yeah, and the boat had a slide too. So of course we slid into the ocean many times. We also had food and drinks on board, which were very nice. So much to do! So much fun! Highly recommend!

Response from the operator: Thank you so much. Very much appreciated and passed on to our wonderful crew. I have a feeling we will see you on board again. Do remember now that you have been with us you have a promo code repeat for next time. Use on our catlanza.com webpage. And feel free to share with anyone you recommend us to. Have a great rest of holiday.
