Amazing tour
Christine_L
, Jul 2022
This tour was so amazing! We loved that it was a small group on the boat and the more intimate experience of sailing versus a catamaran. We enjoyed the sail out to snorkel and snorkeled in a beautiful area that you could swim ashore. We climbed to a lookout point, explored caves and even saw monkeys! The crew timed the sail back perfectly to sunset. I appreciated that the crew offered drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) throughout the excursion and excellent snacks for the way back! I highly recommend to anyone!
Incredibly beautiful afternoon

I had an incredibly beautiful afternoon sail, I can't recommend, Kuna Vela enough! The crew was wonderful and we really got to see some lovely spots in the Gulf, and also had the good fortune of seeing dolphins off the bow and lots of breaching rays. The sunset and a double rainbow were absolutely gorgeous.

Hanging out with friends watching the sunset. Fruit tray and sandwiches provided by on board yummy! You have the option of swimming on the beach or snorkeling, our group decided to swim on the beach. I recommend you grab some noodles - we did not but got lucky and was able to borrow some from another group.
Response from Host , Apr 2022
We are very glad that enjoyed your Sunset & Snorkeling Tour with Kuna. We are happy you enjoyed the fresh fruit platter, corn chips served with guacamole & Bean dip as well as our tray passed sandwiches. Yes you are correct, once we find a nice cove you have the option to snorkel with our guide, float around the boat with noodles or enjoy the beach! When you choose the beach I do agree; grab a beverage and a noodle and enjoy those white sand beaches!!! We hope to see you back aboard Kuna Vela on yout next visit to Costa Rica!

This is a must do tour! The crew was so amazing and we had such a great time went to a private beach, saw A cave and lots of local animals !
Response from Host , Oct 2021
Thank you for taking the time to write a thoughtful review to share your experience aboard Kuna Vela with others. Isn’t the sea cave so neat?!! And I’m so glad you enjoyed seeing the animals of the rainforest and sea in their natural habitat! Such a cool experience! We appreciate your kind words about our amazing crew, they will be so happy to hear you enjoyed their service. We hope to welcome you back to Kuna Vela some day!!
Pura Vida,
Clint, Lindsay & Kuna Crew

Great time! Boat was a sailboat that I preferred over the catamaran. Staff was awesome and very attentive. We had a perfect sunset!
Excellent Customer Service and Beautiful Views

This was a fantastic trip! From the wonderful communication with Clint, the owner, to the hospitality on the boat with Diego and Israel. We wish we had had the chance to snorkel, but unfortunately, the waters were not clear enough that day. There were four of us gals and we all loved the sunset tour. There was a couple on the boat with us and they had done the same trip the year before. To me, that speaks very highly of the company. Thank you Clint and crew!
Response from Host , Apr 2021
Pura Vida! It was so nice to meet you and we at Kuna Vela are so delighted you had a pleasant experience during your sunset sail! Even though the waters were a little cloudy that day, we are glad you could still take in the beautiful Gulf of Papagayo scenery. We wish you all the best and hopefully we see you again on your next trip to Costa Rica!
Beautiful sunset cruise experience

Great boat and crew! Snorkeling wasn’t great because the water visibility was low on our day. Crew compensated by taking us on a cave exploration excursion and then a little whale watching jaunt. Food was delicious as well. Will definitely be booking again next time we are in CR!

Amazing from beginning to end!

From beginning to end an amazing trip! We were greeted by Lindsay who did a great job introducing the team. They were all amazing. The drinks kept coming, the food was delicious, and the company even better. Andreas documented our trip and they send you all the photos free!! Everything was well planned and the day went by smooth.
We left feeling like they were family. They make a point to connect with their guests. We will definitely book again with them!
Response from Host , Mar 2020
This review filled my heart and says it all! Exactly how we want all of our guests to feel! Thank you for taking the time to write such a kind and thoughtful review capturing what Kuna Vela is all about! We sure hope to see you back some day soon aboard Kuna Vela!
Fondly,
Lindsay, Clint & Kuna Crew
We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
