ABOARD ISLAND TIME ONE
A MORE REFINED WAY TO BE ON THE WATER
CILA Reserve is our most refined take on the private catamaran experience. Island Time One is a Gemini Freestyle catamaran, the same proven boat as our Gemini, being refit with custom upholstery, warm accent lighting, premium marine flooring and a completely redesigned restroom.
It’s a step up in comfort and finish, with the same easygoing, private day on the water our guests already love, for groups of up to 13.
Private. Relaxed. Thoughtfully elevated.

THE RESERVE DIFFERENCE
WHAT’S DIFFERENT ABOUT RESERVE
Reserve starts with the private catamaran experience you already know from Crab Island Luxury Adventures, then adds a more polished setting and a few upgrades you’ll notice the moment you step aboard.
The biggest upgrade aboard: a fully redesigned marine restroom with warm lighting, a backlit mirror and finishes that feel closer to a boutique hotel than a boat.
Custom upholstery in soft, neutral tones, premium marine flooring and bow sun pads made for stretching out at Crab Island.
Warm accent lighting for evening cruises, a premium sound system and an integrated hospitality center with a marine refrigerator, cup holders and charging.

If I could give this experience more than five stars, I absolutely would. From start to finish, this was one of the best boat cruises my family and I have ever been on. The boat was exactly as advertised—spotless, well-maintained, and clearly cared for. The attention to detail immediately stood out and set the tone for an exceptional experience. What truly made this trip unforgettable, however, was Captain Jeffrey Kelly and his deckhand, Ken. In my line of work, I’m naturally cautious and don’t easily place my trust in others, especially when my family’s safety is involved. From the moment they introduced themselves, their genuine personalities, Southern hospitality, and professionalism immediately put us at ease. They were knowledgeable, personable, and made the entire trip feel relaxed, enjoyable, and effortless. By the end of the cruise, it felt less like we had hired a charter and more like we had spent the day with good friends. My family enjoyed every minute of the experience, and when we return, there is no question who we’ll be calling. Captain Jeffrey Kelly and Ken exceeded every expectation and made this a trip we’ll be talking about for years to come. I cannot recommend them enough. My little girls also said this was the best day ever and told me how much they enjoyed them. As a parent, it made it worth every penny.Posted on Google![]()
