Recently booked the Pinel Island tour with Bernards and paid the deposit online. Our ship, the Carnival Breeze, was unable to make port on the original scheduled date. Bernards will not refund my deposit as they stated we came 5 days later and they made a reservation for us on the new date. Never heard of a company not refunding when your ship does not make it to port on the original scheduled day. BEWARE of dealing with Bernards in St Maarten!
