What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Reviews for Petrovac Water Sports Center are mixed. While some visitors praise the beautiful views and enjoyable water sports like kitesurfing and windsurfing, others express disappointment with jet ski experiences, citing slow speeds and communication issues. The value for money, particularly with jet skis, is a recurring concern for some. +2
"I came here today with the intention of renting a jet ski, but honestly the whole experience was a joke. First of all, it’s almost impossible to communicate with them, barely anyone speaks proper English, which shows a complete lack of professionalism. Second, four different staff members gave me four different “maximum speed” answers: one said 40, another 60, another 80, which is absolutely ridiculous, while online reviews clearly say it barely goes 20. On top of that, it’s obvious they fake their own 5-star reviews, written in the same broken English they struggle to speak in real life. They even needed a local to translate basic stuff for them. Do not recommend, don’t let them scam you."
Mullek
"5-star-reviews are likely to be made by themselves! All local people with few reviews.
Our experience was also disappointing from start to finish. Already at the first contact the staff showed no interest.
For 80€ we got 30 minutes with hardly any instructions. Our jet ski was a maximum of 20 km/h, while others were more than twice as fast. To our feedback was only given a cheap excuse, it was 80% of the maximum speed and the waves were to blame.
Absolutely not justified for the price."
Loris Zimmermann
"We were very disappointed with the jet skiing. The jet ski travels at around 20 km/h, which feels really slow. We would have liked to get more instructions in the beginning. We were just told how to drive and how to stop. 80€ for this speed is too much for us, especially when all the other jet skis on the water go at least twice as fast as we do. Employees are very young.
Also very interesting that all 5 star ratings are from accounts with very few reviews and many of them make similar English spelling mistakes…"
