Value for the money was absolutely amazing. This is our first year in business putting on an event in Key West, and Sunset Watersports did not disappoint. Would 10/10 recommend for anyone looking to do a private event!

Best time ever!
Had the BEST time ever!!! Well worth the price. Loved being out on the sandbar. The staff were so nice & loved the beers & snacks. And the music selection was awesome. So grateful we did this!!!! Thank you! The ride out to the sand bar was so much fun as well — the views — the splashing water etc, loved it!

Vow renewal done easy!
My husband and I did a little courthouse ceremony when we were 21 and 22. It was where we were in our lives at the time, but we've always regretted not doing the reception to celebrate with friends and family. We were looking for something with as many options included as possible since we knew we didn't want to do it in our little hometown in FL. I googled Key West weddings on a whim and I'm so glad I did! Working with Marisa was a breeeeeeze! We get a DJ, open well bar, and tropical buffet INCLUDED! Oh, and did I mention it was on a catamaran?! We are SO excited for this night and it's still two years away! Thank you for helping us plan the vow renewal and reception of our dreams!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
