    Nice chilled evening.

    Lovely evening on the sea. Good food. Plenty of drink. Staff were excellent. Maybe slightly overpriced but good all the same.

We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed a relaxing evening on the sea, along with the food, drinks, and excellent service from our team. 🌅🌊 We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the pricing.

    I was really looking...

    I was really looking forward to this sunset sailing experience, but unfortunately it was disappointing. The water was extremely rough, and many passengers, myself included, became severely seasick and ended up vomiting. Given the conditions, I think the excursion should have been canceled, especially since other water activities in the area were canceled that day due to the weather. Because of the constant motion, I wasn't able to enjoy the light dinner or the open bar, which are a big part of what you're paying for. To make matters worse, heavy rain started toward the end of the trip. I understand that weather is unpredictable, but the conditions made it impossible to enjoy the experience. I would not recommend this excursion if similar sea conditions are expected.

    Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Playa del Carmen.

    How much does Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar cost?

    +

    Prices start at $89 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Playa del Carmen usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Playa del Carmen is not rushed.

    Is Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 71 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.5/5 across 455 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Playa del Carmen, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar?

    +

    Around 159 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Playa del Carmen can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Playa del Carmen and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Playa del Carmen within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Playa del Carmen?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Playa del Carmen experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Ride to a life changing cenotes tour, Chichén Itzá, Cenote and Valladolid with Lunch and transportation, From Playa del Carmen ATV Adventure with Ziplines, Cenote. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Playa del Carmen?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Playa del Carmen?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar?

    +

    Included: Professional, bilingual, attentive staff; Fully stocked open bar onboard; A variety of gourmet appetizers; and Round-trip transportation from most hotels in Riviera Maya. Not included: Government fees; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 105 listed pickup locations in and around Playa del Carmen. Be ready about 60 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar offered in?

    +

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Riviera Maya Luxury Sunset Sailing plus Light Dinner and Open Bar if the weather is bad?
