Ascension Guest Reviews
Thank you so much for one of the best vacations I had!
Dear Matias, Nico & Eden, Thank you so much for one of the best vacations I had. You all made it look so easy but I know you all work so hard. I wish I could be here longer and I hope to keep in touch and cross paths again.
The catamaran (ASCENSION) is a solid beauty
Thank you for such an amazing week sailing and kiting on the South Caribbean. Our expectations were already really high before doing this trip. And you guys exceeded them by far. The catamaran (ASCENSION) is a solid beauty; the food was perfect, way better than any gourmet restaurant in town. The crew always in all the details and really on top of every single situation, which is really important in a trip like this one. If you are looking for an adventure in paradise in a 5 star hotel and with the perfect crew, this is it! No doubt.
Hope to see you back soon on another trip!
Good Winds and see you soon.
The service was first class!
