Arrived at pier. Clear directions on where to go, friendly staff, and fast trip to where I needed to go

If you get motion sick bring a puke bag with you. Extremely bumpy ride. At first everyone was laughing at how comically bumpy it was, but half way through everyone felt and looked miserable. We did get there though so that's something.

The check-in was a bit unconventional but fast, the pier was just a sand beach und we didn’t really get much information from the operator. But he had a good overview and everybody arrived where they were supposed to be - on time. It started to heavily rain and “storm” while the crossing and the captain slowed down and drove very carefully, so we always felt safe. The boat was in great condition, not crowded and we even received water for the just 40min drive. On board the operator gave us some Information what island we were seeing and clearly told everybody who needs to leave where, since we had 3 stops in total (Yao Noi, Yao Yai and Phuket)

I was skeptical about the car pick up from hotel and called the operator twice to ask about the time of pickup. She confirmed the pickup and we waited until 10 minutes before the boat departure to order a taxi ourselves to pier. The driver from the company said our names were not on the pickup list. Overall many miscommunications and bad organizations. Even though we paid extra money for premium. What a laugh. Did not receive any apologies nor money back. Will not book again.
