Services was good, but boat could be a lot nicer if they give it more maintenance. Our room was not the best… make sure when you book you don’t get the 400-403 rooms, you won’t have balcony. Bathroom were very moldy, very poor condition. Our bed bedsheets were stained… Food was very good! We did different activities like kayaking, fishing at night, happy hour and more. Is definitely not a bad option since is only for a night.

We absolutely loved our time on Doris. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Brian was a character, making mango daiquiri on request. Michael was incredibly helpful and was able to tell us a lot about the wildlife in the area. The food was amazing (sometimes a bit more than needed) and all of the days trips were great. Glad we did the 2 night cruise.

Exceptional experience. I am really impressed by the professionalism of the staff. The transfer bus was so comfortable. The room was clean, spacious, the food options were the best, as a vegetarian I always feel « left out » but at this cruise I had so many options to chose from. It was such a peaceful cruise.

Lovely boat and lovely crew as well! There are some others like Elite which look a bit more modern but this has a nice colonial feel. Also, it’s not as big so make sure where your room is for the noise.
