Well yes, we went to shore excursion desk to state dissafaction and that is where my spouse was called rude. She had her boss, head of excursions of guess, contact us and while she stated that she was sorry, no refund was coming. While I did not get a shore excusion to lay on the beach, I was merely relating a complaint another cruiser shared with me.

Word to wise, be cautious about rc shore excursions. Not all as they claim to be. Golf issue in one port. Was told about a beach excursion that indicated there would be water activities at one beach, nothing there but beach.

The cost of the excursion was $150, plus $45 for golf club rental and purchase of golf balls. The excursion was to be for 4 hours. Enough time for 18 holes of golf.
However, and this is not stated, the ride to the course was at least 20 minutes each way. The departure was around 8:30, arrived at golf course around 9:00 am and the van driver says she will return at 12:30, for ride back to ship. I you are not here, you find and pay for your own way back. Golfers indicated to driver that was not enough time to play 18 holes of golf, well too bad.
So, after surprising the pro shop apparently, off to play a "polo" game of golf in curaçao.
Was back for pickup at 12:35 and was told that the pickup time was now 2:00.
Went to excursion desk, was told, did you see that the tour was for 4 hours. Tried to explain to the young lady the issue of lack of time. After being called rude, knew that one need not pursue the issue. However her boss did called, but again no gain.
So, you have been warned about this excursion.

first, be very careful using a credit card. We were scammed with several charges to "Fast jet"
Not certain where the cc number was stolen, so just use cash is my advice. Dollars are accepted.
Obtain visa at the airport when you arrive. Will need a clean, crisp 100 bill for each person. Very easy and fast.
