Customer reviews
How customer reviews and ratings work
We use the Average with Prior (also known as Bayesian Average) to calculate the total rating for each sailing cruise
Since new cruises could have very few reviews, each review can significantly impact the average score, potentially leading to misleading representations of the total score (e.g., one very positive or very negative review skewing the overall rating). To mitigate this, we use a "prior" or "default" score.
This means that each cruise, by default, starts with a rating of 4, which is calculated from 5 hypothetical reviews, each rated 4. This assumption provides a baseline level of performance that is neutral-to-positive.
For example, if a new cruise receives a 5-star review, the total rating will be adjusted to 4.17. Here's how it is calculated: (4 × 5) + 5 = 25 and then divided by the total number of reviews 6 (5 default + 1 actual review), resulting in 4.17
As more reviews come in, the weight of the actual reviews increases, and the influence of the prior diminishes.

“Lagoon 620 cabin charter - Phuket, Thailand”
We had a week long crewed cabin charter from Phuket in a Lagoon 620. The crew (skipper, chef, and deckhand) were all excellent and worked really hard to make sure we had a great experience. The boat itself was in decent but not excellent shape - we took some heavy weather one day and a lot of the cabins (including ours) experienced water leaks. The staff and crew out of Phuket are really good, and we felt very well taken care of.
