Really easy to deal with by email before, and in person while there. Loved driving my own boat (never done it before, but was quality). Matey instructed us how to... read more operate it, but the part where you drive into the shore to drop off people then head back out was not very clear (I think a practise attempt at the nearby Cala Gonone beach should have been included). Didnt matter much in the end anyway, as every time I tried to do it on any of the beaches, a grumpy old man would shout at me to F off back out to sea (apparently it was too wavy for small boats, but that was a load of crap, as other boats of the same size were allowed in - the tour ones with pro
drivers). Ended up anchoring 100m from shore for each beach, and swimming in, but couldn't bring towels that way, so spoilt it slightly. Also wasn't allowed on Mariole beach at all as didn't have a 1 euro ticket which you must have before you leave port (Palmesera said it was a new rule that particular beach owner brought in on that day, but other boats had them and were allowed on, so not sure why they didn't know about it, which was a real let down - they said I could drive back to another beach miles away to purchase one, but I shouldn't have to if they gave me it at the start - I doubt I'd even be able to get one there anyway as they wouldn't even let me near the beach to get my wallet out). Overall a great day, but I think I'd go for the 12 person with driver tour next time, as you're guaranteed to get on the beaches without rebuff - not Palmasera's fault, but they could have warned us it might happen - wasn't told jack about it. Reason I rented one was basically to smash up the waves and that part was totally worth it, but beach wise it was a bit of a disaster. €40 for petrol at the end made it €200 in total, which was double what we would have paid if doing the driver tour for €50 each, but no qualms about that, although would have been 'more' worth it if they'd let us on at least one bloody beach!

We were lucky to be able to book the day before. The lady we dealt with spoke excellent English and was very helpful. The boat (rib) was very nice and... read more a perfect size with room to spare for the 4 of us (3 adults and a 7 year old). We met at the booking hut (at the beach drop off point by the car park), filled in the paperwork, were given a cool box and a brolly, then walked half way down the beach to pick the boat up. Then started a great day of exploring the coast line (we went south), snorkelling and generally have a great time. Anchoring where we liked very close to the shore(except cordoned off beaches). You will need towels to cover the rubber as you climb back into the boat because it gets very hot! Climbing back aboard from the sea was a bit hard work with quite a short ladder but once one of you is back aboard its much easier because they can help the others. Well worth the money for a day of exploring away from the busy beaches.
