“Our family of 7 left our Resort at 11:00am, arrived at the Marina gate at noon to find out that our 1:00 snorkeling tour had been cancelled due to engine trouble. We received NO phone call, just an email notification was sent out at 11:30am, in regards to the cancellation. When I am on vacation, I am not looking at emails.
