"I had a very disappointing experience with GetMyBoat. My friends and I booked a yacht for nearly €1000, and while the payment was processed immediately, everything went wrong once we arrived. Firstly, the yacht was located in France, just a few minutes from Nice, but the captain did not speak a word of French. When I asked if he spoke French, he simply said no. Secondly, there were no life jackets provided on board, which is a serious safety concern. Thirdly, the overall hygiene of the yacht was not acceptable; it was not clean at all. To make matters worse, shortly after we set sail, we encountered waves that made us feel unsafe due to the weather conditions. There were no other boats in the water, and it was clearly not a day for boating. The captain should have canceled the trip and advised us not to proceed with the activity given the circumstances. We have evidence, including videos and photos, that prove the unsafe conditions of the yacht. Despite this, neither the website nor the captain took any action to address our concerns. I strongly advise others to think twice before booking through this service

Hello Priscilla, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re truly sorry to hear that the day didn’t go as planned, especially for such a meaningful celebration. We understand how disappointing and stressful it must have been to cut the trip short due to challenging sea conditions. Please know that guest satisfaction is atop priority for us. We’ve since been in direct contact with both the renter and the boat owner to thoroughly review what happened. While we’re unable to share specific details out of respect for privacy, we’re glad to share that a resolution has been reached—and the primary renter has expressed appreciation for the support provided. We value all feedback, including yours, and will continue working to ensure better experiences for our guests in the future. Regards, Getmyboat Customer Support
