5.00It's difficult to say enough good things about this cruise. We had a fantastic day out. The crew were friendly, fun, obliging and went out of their way to ensure all their guests had a great day. The boat is very comfortable and the food was excellent as were the drinks. The welcome cocktail was especially delicious. Fresh crays straight out of the ocean for lunch - it doesn't get much better than that. All in all I absolutely loved this trip.

5.00What a fantastic day out we had with Rottnest cruises. If your looking for staff that are highly attentive, knowledgeable and most of all FUN then I can't recommend them highly enough! Such a different way to experience Rottnest, great selection of wines and other drinks, food was AMAZING and did I mention how attentive the staff were.... we were never left with an empty glass and and all the staff were so approachable and authentic in there interacts with everyone on the boat. Pulling up the cray pots was a laugh and to experience not 1 but 3 bull sharks around the boat wanting to be fed some Hoki heads was an such an experience! Thank you to the entire Rottnet Cruises crew, you are all amazing and you made our experience something we will never forget.
The most amazing day we have had in a long time

5.00Great day on the water. Fabulous seafood, drinks on tap, exceptional staff and an all round relaxing day. Seeing sharks while pulling the cray pots was a highlight. 30 people plus staff on the boat but still plenty of room to move. Highly recommend for a deluxe treat.
Great day on the water

4.00Luxe Island Seafood Cruise says it all really and had us eagerly looking forward to the day. Perfect weather conditions, and fantastic crew made the day run smoothly. Food was delicious, catching our own crays/lobster for lunch was fun and informative. Only suggestion would be to temper alcohol provided as a few over indulged.
Great Day out, excellent...

5.00Absolutely fantastic day we loved it. Arrived at Rottnest via ferry (organised by the company). The crew provided a very professional and very fun experience. We pulled some cray pots and saw some big sharks. The food was beautifully prepared and super tasty. Top shelf WA wines and variety of beers were served. All up a wonderful day that gave us both great memories. Thank you Heather
