Services was good, but boat could be a lot nicer if they give it more maintenance. Our room was not the best… make sure when you book you don’t get the 400-403 rooms, you won’t have balcony. Bathroom were very moldy, very poor condition. Our bed bedsheets were stained… Food was very good! We did different activities like kayaking, fishing at night, happy hour and more. Is definitely not a bad option since is only for a night.

We absolutely loved our time on Doris. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. Brian was a character, making mango daiquiri on request. Michael was incredibly helpful and was able to tell us a lot about the wildlife in the area. The food was amazing (sometimes a bit more than needed) and all of the days trips were great. Glad we did the 2 night cruise.
