OMG!!! Where must I start!!! First I would Love to shout Chelsea and our Capt. Please forgive me but I forgot his name. They were both simply awesome. Half of our group got stuck in Richmond traffic due to an really bad accident, delaying them by some 20 minutes or more. That particular part of the group had our 74 year old Birthday Girl in tow. Yes!! The one this celebration was for. Well needless to say, our Capt. and Chelsea allow us to enjoy our full booked trip once the rest of our group arrived. This is definitely A 1 type business. Please allow these Beautiful group of people to host whatever celebration you are planning with a wonderful cruise with then. Thank you all for 5 star service with the plus of being A 1 in all of our books!!! Sea Suite Cruises in Richmond, VA. definitely rock!!! You will not be disappointed!!! Trust me!!! Sharon Edmonds with great appreciation!!!
The captain and deckhand provided exceptional service. Our group celebrated a 74th birthday aboard, bringing ample decorations and food, efficiently loaded with assistance from Chelsea. Their hospitality was outstanding, making for a joyful cruise up and down the James River. The vessel was impeccably clean, including the bathroom facilities; the Bluetooth audio system was a welcome addition. The accommodations were ideal for our event. The perfect weather contributed to a wonderful celebration for our friend, made exceptional by the crew's efforts. I highly recommend this cruise experience.
Our cruise was a dose of perfection for my daughter’s 40th birthday party! Nick, the captain, and Thornton and Chelsea were absolutely wonderful! It was their engagement and understanding of fun and laughter that made this family celebration one we will cherish and remember—thank you so much!
Nick and Thornton were professional, courteous and accommodating. Boat was comfortable and clean, fun music, beautiful views. Restroom available and clean. We brought our own booze and snacks and had a fabulous time. Definitely recommend.
We did the Riverboat cruise as part of a company outing and had a wonderful time! I would love to do it again with my family and friends.
One of the best engagement events we've had. The staff on the boat were helpful, pleasant, and entertaining. The trip started on time, the boat cruised down the river for the whole hour and 45 minutes, we brought our desserts and drinks and they helped us clean up, and the ride was smooth and calm. Thank you for a memorable event.
Had a great time during the cruise! I’ve been in the James River - kayaking - rowing laboriously to avoid being swept by the flowing waters. Felt so pampered just relaxing! The staff were friendly, professional and pleasant - a big plus to our event!!!
Absolutely lovely experience with a beautiful view of RVA at sunset. Can play your own music, BYOB and a deckhand/stew will serve you from your cooler, and very ample seating/standing room. They encourage dancing and having fun time. Would absolutely recommend this to anyone who wants to have a great time on the water ❤️
What a special “private” cruise provided by our friends Ed & Amy on the James River along Rockett’s Landing!And kudos to Nick & Kimberly for their understanding & allowing us to play Smooth Jazz during the cruise!
This was a really fun experience and I hope to do it again. We rented a paddle boat for a birthday party and were generously upgraded to the larger tiki boat, at no additional charge. The crew were friendly and helped serve drinks from behind the bar. Everyone in our party had a terrific time tooling around the river. Bonus that the weather was cooler with autumn setting in. If you have a spring or fall celebration coming up, I highly recommend!
We booked a private cruise to celebrate a 50th Birthday! The weather and skyline for taking pictures were perfect. Everyone had a great time. The captain and mate were exceptional. We will definitely book again in the future.
Great evening ! Captain Nick and Kim were fabulous! Friendly and engaging! Fun night celebrating a 50 th birthday for my nephew!!Highly recommend for a good time!
My family and friends at my birthday party and I absolutely enjoyed the cruise. You, the crew members, were so pleasant and welcoming. The boat was clean and had more space than we thought. We could dance. The volume on the Bluetooth speakers was just right There was ample seating. You were so gracious in taking pictures for us. We all wished for another hour on the boat. It was extremely relaxing and filled with smooth turns on the boat. I highly recommend the Tiki Club by Sea Suite Cruises.
My team had a wonderful time on the Tiki Boat. The staff was helpful and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend.
Good to be with friends on a cloudy day. I wish the captain and crew had shared more about the river and their experiences. That we had been warned about a different boat. would have brought wine.
Weather put a real damper on our experience. Staff were nice. We were disappointed that there was no information about Richmond, point out details about skyline. Understand Jimmy Dean lives on James River, former cruise passed his house and pointed it out. So many rusty former bridges, etc along river, would of like what they once were and what role they played in the history of Richmond.
It’s was amazing just not long enough!! Plan on doing it again near future!
Chelsea and Hartwell were fantastic! They brought the vibes and made us feel welcomed. Great time with great people, couldn't recommend more.
