Very nice experience
3 Hour – Algarve Discovery on July 31, 20263 adults2 children

We had an amazing sailing trip with Sail Away Algarve today! Our skipper, Miguel, was fantastic – very friendly, professional, and made us feel welcome from the moment we stepped on board. We sailed from Portimão to the beautiful João de Arens bay, where we enjoyed a refreshing swim in the crystal-clear water. On the way back, we raised the sails and enjoyed a peaceful and unforgettable sailing experience all the way back to Portimão. The boat was beautiful, the scenery was breathtaking, and the whole trip was relaxing from start to finish. If you’re looking for an authentic sailing experience in the Algarve, I can highly recommend Sail Away Algarve. It was definitely one of the highlights of our holiday!

Response from Captain

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It means a lot to us that you enjoyed your time on board. We're especially happy to hear that Miguel made your experience so memorable with his professionalism and warm welcome. João de Arens is one of our favourite places, and we're glad you could enjoy its crystal-clear waters and a peaceful sail back to Portimão. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you on board again for another unforgettable adventure. Fair winds!

confusion regarding the pricing
2 Hour – Essence of the Sea on August 6, 20266 adults

We had some confusion regarding the pricing, as the information in the fine print did not match what was displayed on the website, and the final price was almost double what was advertised. We recommend being very careful and confirming the total cost before booking. They did waive the fuel fee, since the website indicated it was included, and they also offered us a welcome cocktail. However, cancelling the tour was not really an option without losing money. That being said, the tour itself was wonderful. The scenery was beautiful, the boat was very well maintained and equipped with paddleboards, and they made the most of the two-hour tour. Aside from the pricing issue, we would recommend this experience—just make sure you are clear on the actual price you will be paying!

Elisa Amores
Response from Captain

Thank you for your review. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the sailing experience, the boat, the scenery and the paddleboards. However, we would like to clarify the pricing issue for future guests reading this review. As we showed you with screenshots from the website, the price of the tour was correctly displayed and it was clearly stated that the crew fee and fuel were to be paid separately. In addition, before you completed your booking, we sent you a message specifically informing you that the crew fee would be paid on board. We did not receive a reply to this message, and the booking was subsequently completed. There was indeed one inconsistency regarding the fuel: although the description clearly stated that fuel was not included, due to an error on the booking platform, a tick appeared on the reservation indicating that fuel was included. We fully acknowledged this discrepancy and, even though it was a platform error, we took responsibility for it and did not charge you any fuel cost. We also wanted to make sure you had the best possible experience despite this misunderstanding, so in addition to offering you a welcome drink, we offered you almost one extra hour on board at no additional cost. We always aim to be completely transparent with our guests, and this is why we communicate any additional costs both in the listing and directly with the customer before the booking is completed. We are nevertheless very pleased that you found the tour itself wonderful and that you would recommend the experience. Thank you for sailing with us.
