5.00Magical experience with Arnaud and Melissa they were extraordinary. I am in a wheelchair and helped me spontaneously and carried me to the front of the boat to settle on a fatboy with the breathtaking view of the blue horizon dolphins and turtles. A magical moment when they were in our care from the beginning to the end everything is just perfect, nothing wrong! Also included in the price breakfast, tapas, snacks fruit... a paddel an annex to drive you to the beaches, floating carpets.. everything is planned. And what kindness, really nothing to complain about I recommend go you may not be disappointed

Highlight of Our Vacation – Exceptional Catamaran Experience

5.00We had an incredible one-day catamaran charter with Arnaud and Helene aboard Respire in Saint Martin, and it was easily the highlight of our trip! From the moment we stepped aboard, we felt warmly welcomed. *Respire* is spacious, spotless, and beautifully maintained, with plenty of room for our group to relax, swim, and enjoy the Caribbean views. Captain Arnaud took us to gorgeous, secluded spots ideal for snorkeling, paddleboarding, and swimming. The kids were thrilled—constantly in the water and having a blast! Helene provided homemade snacks throughout the day and served a delicious, fresh lunch that satisfied both kids and adults. There was also a wide range of drinks for everyone—thoughtfully prepared and generously offered. Arnaud and Helene are an outstanding team: friendly, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. They made the day fun, relaxing, and completely stress-free. If you're looking for a perfect day on the water in Saint Martin, we can't recommend Respire and this amazing crew enough. We’d book with them again in a heartbeat!
Another amazing day

A Beautiful Last Day in Sint Maarten - Thank You, Respire SXM!

5.00We spent a lovely weekend in Sint Martin, a little getaway that just happened to overlap with my sister’s birthday. After three fun-filled days of exploring the island, the four of us (my boyfriend, my sister, her husband, and I) were looking for a special way to spend our last morning before flying home in the evening. We thought a short catamaran trip with some snorkeling would be perfect, but most places were either too expensive, didn’t fit our schedule, or just never responded. Then we found Respire SXM. We sent a message on WhatsApp, not expecting much, but to our surprise, Hélène got back to us almost immediately. From the first reply, she was kind, responsive, and incredibly helpful. She patiently answered all our questions and didn’t mind the back-and-forth as we figured out details. That kind of thoughtful communication made all the difference. The next morning, we arrived at their office and were greeted with warm smiles by Captain Arnaud Wojcik and led to their beautiful 40-foot catamaran. The boat was stunning! clean, spacious, and so inviting. It already felt like the perfect way to wind down our trip. And it only got better from there - calm waters, gorgeous views, delicious food, and some truly magical snorkeling. Arnaud took us to peaceful, beautiful spots that felt untouched, and we never felt rushed. Everything was easy, relaxed, and full of joy. We laughed, swam, soaked in the sun, and just enjoyed every minute. This experience was the highlight of our trip, not just because of the scenery, but because of how personal and thoughtful it all felt. Hélène and Arnaud created something really special, and it showed in every detail. If you’re in Sint Maarten and want to create a beautiful memory on the water, Respire SXM is the way to go. We’re so grateful we found them, and we’ll be recommending them to everyone we know. Thank you for ending our trip on such a high note. We'll always remember it.
Best Boat Trip Ever!
