Charter Yachts ADVANCED Search

It feels just like yesterday we stepped onto this beautiful yacht, but also in such a short period of time we've had so many experiences and been introduced to so many beautiful places and the water! Thank you for making our first charter the most amazing experience we could have hoped for, including our night-time adventure which now has Jay believing he's a full-time captain from here on out! Thank you for getting us to all our destinations safe, and for the history lesson on the islands along the way, and for putting up with Jay's never ending questions about boating & the seas! Be ready for next year, Jay will be coming aboard with a year of boating research under his belt after this adventure! Chef, every meal was beyond beautiful! We know your cuisine was magic when the life jackets got too snug at the end of the trip. Stew, you always knew what we needed without us knowing it! Your little touches and attention were so sweet and made us feel like royalty. Thank you for keeping our pale Canadien skin protected at all times!

Heartfelt thank you all for fulfilling our dream vacation. We truly had the most amazing time - the food was over the top-the drinks were absolutely the best!!! - Captain, you guided with grace, laughter to some of the best locations in the world!

We stepped on the boat a week ago - overtired, a bit disconnected (from time away from each other) and SO ready for a good time together and relaxation. We'll leave tomorrow with so much more. We have reconnected, rested and recharge.
But we have also met 4 individuals that will stay in our cherished memories forever. Your personalities and skills! It was wonderful to connect with each of you throughout our week. You all work so hard and take every possible opportunity to be present with your guests. We appreciate how well you put with LOTS of Taylor Swift!! You made this one extra special.

What an amazing week! Everything was perfect from the first greeting to our goodbye. Thank you for making our visit so personal and special. The meals were amazing, creative and delicious!! To the crew; thank you for all the time spent with Carter doing all of the things he loves. Movie nights were very sweet and a great memory we will cherish. We loved getting to know you!

Thank you for a wonderful week that exceeded all expectations. We knew we would see many beautiful locations, do some fun snorkeling and paddle boarding, and enjoy being pampered, but you three made this trip all that and more. From story time to the meals, to the drinks and beyond-everything was spectacular. Add to that our first SCUBA experience and a host of other great opportunities, and it makes us want to do it all over again right now!

What an amazing trip! My name is Ben and my wife, Leslie, and I just completed a 7-day cruise on your yacht, Sol. It was our honeymoon and we had never been on a yacht charter previously. We selected Sol based on photos and advice from the yacht broker. Our expectations for the yacht were high and we were so excited prior to the trip. And I must say, the yacht exceeded every one of our extremely high expectations, and beyond. Sol is spectacular, and your selection of furnishings and accessories couldn’t be any better. We were proud to be on the ship and found ourselves constantly admiring and appreciating all the thought and design that created the beautiful décor and features. We knew that Sol would be a fabulous yacht, but we didn’t realize that the ship would only serve as the platform for what was to come. The crew of made the experience come alive and they were absolutely wonderful. They anticipated and adapted to our needs and desires and were so engaged in creating something remarkable for my wife and me. They worked non-stop, but we got to know them personally and adore each one of them. There talents compliment one another and there is a culture formed by this small team that works seamlessly to create remarkable experiences. Another huge surprise was the amazing food and drinks served throughout the trip. We didn’t anticipate that the chef's talents would consistently elicit comments from us that this is one of the best meals that we have ever enjoyed. We were kept us well hydrated, served and cared for, and collaborated with them to create memories for us that we never would have thought of. The deckhand is a hidden gem and contributes to the experience in so many ways. The captain orchestrated the many stops and places we visited, as well as assembled a great team and created an evolved culture that has everyone knowing what they stand for, where they are going and how to get there. It is apparent that all of them participate in decision-making and own the outcome of their efforts. Every one of the team members contributed at mealtimes, getting drinks into our hands and special experiences on land and in the ocean, to create special memories for life for us. We are fortunate to travel frequently and stay in many properties that are rated as some of the best in the world. Yet, this 7-day trip was the best 7 days of vacation that we have ever experienced. From beginning to end, this experience was exceptional. Thank you for giving your team the latitude to create a special memory for us. It was magical. We are already assembling a group of friends to share with us another experience with your wonderful team on your amazing yacht, Sol.

You have allowed us to have the most special, memorable vacation aboard the Angeleyes with your dedication, thoughtfulness, skill and lovely personalities and i couldn't be more grateful. We have enjoyed the company, the delicious meals and the tending to our wants and needs every step of this trip. The BVI was amazing but they would not be the same without you.

We wanted to express a heartfelt 'Thank you" for an extraordinary week aboard Karma. Great dives, amazing snorkeling, phenomenal food, and superb cocktails! All we can say is that you all made this a truly unforgettable 40th! Thank you guys so much!

(Review from crew's previous yacht) Where to begin...This was the most amazing trip we have EVER had! The boat was beyond comfortable and stocked with anything and everything we could have wanted or needed. The crew were above and beyond in every way. They were new to these islands but did their homework to show us all the precious places to see and experience. Then there is the food & dining experience-No words... We dined like royalty. Each meal was well thought out, planned, and delicious! We had lots to celebrate on this trip and they made it so special and memorable. The crew are a wonderful team and we will remember them and this experience always and forever!

“This was our best charter yet. They have an excellent program; you could not go wrong sending anyone to this Motor Yacht South. I have nothing to complain about, even if I really tried. Every person who works on that boat does very well in their roles. They are very, very good. The Captain has picked a really amazing crew. It was a super incredible time.”

"Terrific yacht experience!!! Even better than five years ago - which I thought was impossible." -

Thank you for all the hospitality, inspiration, amazing food, and unmatched attention to detail! Our vacation on TAIL LIGHTS was a true paradise! The decision, comfort, and how well-maintained TAIL LIGHTS are make it perfect for anyone’s voyage! This amazing crew easily made this vacation of a lifetime!
Many thanks from everybody in our company of friends and family.

Our two families enjoyed a fabulous time chartering the Virgin Islands with the Captain and crew this week! We DID not want to leave. The teenagers were busy with water toys upon water toys all day and into the sunset. Then, we had several theme nights during the week, including a pizza party! The crew kept up with us and showed us all the amazing, unique spots in the Virgin Islands. I think North Sound on Virgin Gorda was our favorite.

This trip on Serenity 133 is one of our top family vacations, if not the best, and we will definitely be returning!

We were there to relax after working long hours for months. I think they caught onto that very quickly! It’s really rare to see a crew who works so well together, and they all did. It was clear they all had specific jobs to do, but the amount of camaraderie and teamwork that I saw on this boat was a step above all others. They were very much in sync, professional, and friendly to us. They made us feel comfortable from the moment we stepped aboard. - Charter Client

Stay Salty is an outstanding yacht that is the pinnacle of relaxed luxury hospitality. The crew, from the Captain on down, is dedicated to passenger safety, comfort and fun- from chilled towels to freshly baked bread to incredibly thoughtful amenities and water toys to the endless flow of expertly crafted cocktails. Having been on several yachting experiences, I can honestly say that no stewards anticipate passenger wants as expertly as Stay Salty Stewardess team. Departing aboard the seaplane the Captain arranged for us was bittersweet. Can't wait to return!

All we can say is "wow"! Wow! Wow! This past week has been over the top incredible. It has surpassed any other trip we've been on. Thank you for making us feel at home and making us feel so welcome. It is an experience we will never forget with memories to last a lifetime. We hope to come back soon!!!

To My "All Time All Time" favorite people in the entire world! You are all the kindest, hardest working, most organized 'Team' on the planet. No is not in your vocabulary and you go so far above and beyond to make it happen for everyone. In 56 years of seeing it all, you blew my socks off. Literally walking onto SEA AXIS YACHT. Thank you for all the love and laughter. You rock!!!

Thank you guys so much for making our trip so amazing and special, you guys are the best and hope we see you guys again.

We had an amazing trip, thanks to the Blacksheep crew! Everything was immaculate and our son had a blast with the water toys. Thanks to the Chef for all those amazing meals! We love the MY Blacksheep! Another amazing trip! We had a blast! Great food, great crew + the best time. I can't wait until the next trip!

Our group of four couples just finished six nights aboard the pristine Liquid Zen. The boat is new with great amenities: air conditioning, carpet in the bedrooms, comfy beds with plenty of pillows, heavy and light covers, a separate shower and toilet, fast dinghy, -wow! I grew up bareboating and this boat is a palace!
The captain is super easygoing. He is excellent with safety, navigation, and cleanliness and stays even keel and calm at all times. He was great at taking us snorkeling, diving, and to and from shore as well. Truly the Zen of Liquid Zen. With Chef also having her captain's license, you are always in the best of hands. The cooking and hospitality are top-notch. Though she is younger than almost all of our children, we called Chef "Mom" because she was so good at keeping track of us and attending to our every whim.
A good boat is important but likely most important is the crew. They can make or break a trip and these two made our trip outstanding. I cannot recommend them highly enough. You will not be disappointed.

We had a wonderful time aboard Gracious. Everything was absolutely perfect and far exceeded our expectations. The crew was excellent and truly made the experience unforgettable.

Thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality, genuineness & kindness. You all made this trip absolutely perfect. Look forward to seeing you all again on the next voyage. All the best to you all!

Saying thank you doesn't feel like a big enough phrase to capture how much we have enjoyed this vacation and being with the two of you. This trip was pure magic and the trip of a lifetime!

You all are the most special people. I know there is so much ahead for all of you to look forward to. This trip was such an amazing trip. It is something we will never forget. We will forever remember all you have done for us. These memories will be with us always.

It's hard to put into work how wonderful this last week has been. From the moment we stepped onto the boat it was clear how tight your crew is. What is so amazing is how quickly you bring people into your fold. We felt like we were part of your group connected rather than watching from the outside. Those connections extend beyond one another and to nature. All of you have a kind, calm, yet energetic way that makes people around feel the same. Our family was able to try new things and enjoy the peace of our surroundings, and all with your encouragement.
While we had many fun and exciting adventures we also enjoyed peaceful adventures. This boat and environment are amazing, but this crew makes it come alive. We are so thankful for your thoughtful guidance, support, and time,
You all made this week so special just being who you are. We were taken care of but also really enjoyed your friendship. Thank you for sharing part of yourselves with us.

We just don’t have adequate words to describe our wonderful week onboard Mucho Gusto! Dom and Hannah are absolutely top notch in every way. They had a quick understanding of our pace and are experts at “reading” people. I don’t think I fully appreciated that in addition to having sharp captain/chef/maintenance/steward skills, the job calls for very keen people skills.

The meals were incredible. Better than we’ve had on land and Hannah’s use of a huge variety of different choices was unbelievable. We planned to eat out 3 nights but only ate off the boat 1 night!

Dom is an expert captain and we felt safe at all times. He knew the best days for the best spots and we crossed off our whole itinerary. The beauty of the power cat is that we could consider the weather and adjust the stops. Dom loves an excursion and was helpful to teach us how to snorkel, paddle and use the sea scooter.

They are a true dynamic duo. Worked tirelessly, I never saw either one of them sit down! They are constantly cleaning and the boat is IMMACULATE. It looks brand new and has every amenity and convenience.

There is no better feeling than when folks are kind to our kids! Dom and Hannah were so great to us ALL and I could relax and just enjoy the special family time. ❤️

I’m so grateful that YOU stuck with me for 5(!) years of inquiries and extra glad the fates paired us with Mucho Gusto! TEAMWORK!

We can’t thank you both enough for one of the most amazing trips of our lives. From start to finish each day was filled with memories of joy, adventure, and most of all love. Our family truly appreciated your warmth and hospitality. We look forward to another with you both in the near future.

It’s hard to put into words the gratitude we feel after the week we’ve had. The four of you have shown our family so much gracious hospitality and generosity and we can’t thank you enough for this Epic adventure. Until next time

The best!!! Exceeded our expectations at every turn. Hope to be able to sail with you again. The food was fantastic and no matter what curveball we through at you, you handled it seamlessly and professionally. The yacht was perfect and there was always plenty to do on the boat. Like I said earlier, we had very high expectations of our trip and every aspect was exceeded.

Wow! What a wonderful way to spend a week! Sailing the BVI aboard SEVEN surpassed even my loftiest expectations! Not only is SEVEN an absolutely beautiful ship both inside and out, but the charter comes equipped with very nice scuba gear, fun water toys, and fishing equipment.

During our sailing, we caught some tuna that ended up as an amazing sashimi. In fact all of Chefs meals were great: fresh, healthy, and tailored to each person’s preferences. The stewardess, prepared beautiful table settings for each meal every day, and she was always very attentive making sure we had everything we needed. She was always there to greet us with cool drinks after every excursion. Captain is an awesome dive master and local expert. I can’t imagine a friendlier, more professional crew. They made the trip so much fun. Thanks to the top notch crew and beautiful, top of the line amenities, this trip definitely ranks as one of our absolute favorites! We’ll definitely sail on SEVEN again!

Thank you SO much for making this such a memorable vacation — trip of a lifetime! The food was stellar, top notch, and we appreciate you taking our food preferences into consideration. Beautiful presentation as well! And thank you for being so accommodating, especially with having four teenagers. Also, you two are just so enjoyable and fun!!!

Thank you extra for making us amazing vegetarian food, you have no idea how much it means to us!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our trip on Indigo truly amazing! We have never had such wonderful food on a charter trip. The chef tailored every plate for our kids picky needs 🙂 The captain was witty and calming and we felt like family. We have truly made good friends and hope to see you very soon.

Honestly. I don’t even know where to begin this week has been so much more than a vacation. Yes it’s been the most beautiful scenery, epic adventures, total relaxation and so much quality time with our family, but what made it so memorable and special was the two of you. The kindness, dedication and expertise that showed in every act. You didn’t just take care of us…….you made us feel like the most honoured guests in your beautiful home. We feel so lucky to have had this week on this gorgeous vessel with two of the most generous and interesting people so thank you. Thank you for the memories my children will carry of this magical week in the BVI. Chef, I will never stop being amazed by the absolutely delicious, gourmet and beautifully presented meals you made in the tiny kitchen and also Francois, thanks so much for being a patient and knowledgeable guide to our entry into scuba-diving after 20 years!! We will miss you both so much. All our love .

We just returned from our voyage on No Inheritance and as one member of our group said, “this might have been the best vacation ever.” (and we’ve had some good vacations.) The boat was gorgeous. Obviously, rooms are small, and bathrooms/showers were especially tiny, but overall we were certainly pleased with the amount of space on it (plus, who really spends time in their cabins other than sleeping.) We didn’t anticipate that the 9 of us would all be able to be eat in the front of the boat (excuse me, bow) or the back (stern) or that we’d all be able to be up where the captain drives the boat (not sure what that’s called.)

As nice as the No Inheritance is, there is no doubt in any of our minds that the crew were what made the trip so memorable/fantastic.

The captain was great! He is one of those rare people who has the gift of making things appear effortless when he is undoubtedly putting in a lot of effort behind the scenes. He made the effort to really understand what we wanted out of this vacation. No doubt lots of folks love to go bar to bar (and who doesn’t like a good Caribbean bar?), but that’s not what we wanted to do on this trip. We were with the 9 people we wanted to be with, and he managed to take us to uncrowded spots (even during Christmas in July) where the snorkeling, hiking, and water were all fantastic. And, even the day when we did hit the Soggy Dollar, he made sure we got there early, had our pains killed, and were on our way before it got crowded. We were traveling with 4 teens, and he took the time to get to know each of them whether it was keeping Emily from getting seasick, letting Michael help him man the controls, or having Will fish and wakeboard. He seemingly knew all of their names (and all the adults’ names) immediately. Obviously, he’s taking us to places he’s been to and seen many times before, but he made it seem like he was enjoying our discoveries just as we were enjoying them.

The chef was fantastic. As I said to her on the boat, I expected a cook and got a chef. We were a challenge, and meals were my greatest concern in the month leading up to the trip. We celebrated an anniversary and two birthdays on the boat. And, we had a vegan, a vegetarian, and someone who doesn’t eat fish. We thought that would severely limit our dining options. Instead, she was whipping up a delicious dish from scratch every day (well, several times a day) that met (and let’s be honest greatly exceeded) our expectations every day. Like the captain, she got to know our kids (and all of us) and paid attention to what we ate and what we didn’t eat and adjusted her plans based on that. She was always happy to answer any questions or just to chat in the kitchen.

Simply put, I can’t imagine that there’s a better team out there. While I was impressed with the way they handled their jobs, frankly, I was just as impressed with the fact that they are great people. By the end of the trip, they just seemed like the 10 and 11th members of our traveling party. We talked to them, played games with them, and hiked with them. Now, as we get back to the grind, we miss them.

If you have people deciding among several boats, I’d say tell them to just pick this one. And, if prospective charterers want to talk to someone who has traveled on the boat, I’m guessing any of us would be happy to talk to them (while I wrote this, I’m pretty confident that Ana, Linda, and Kevin share the same view). Now that I think about it, Linda is probably the best talker of the group. I’m more of a writer, but you can certainly share this letter with anyone who wants an unsolicited testimonial.

From crew's previous yacht. Words fail to even begin to express how incredible this week has been. Chefs cooking is a true gift and we feel blessed to have witnessed and savored true culinary perfection! Captain has been nothing short of phenomenal - his expertise and his command of the boat have been amazing to watch.
We feel honored to have been a part of the history!
We will be back!

This was our best catamaran trip yet. The crew were a fantastic crew who understood all we were looking for & had great knowledge to share & such enthusiasm for life! Our group of 6 all loved our time on Ether!

Our vacation on Endless Horizons was perfection! We were met by a smiling crew that immediately offered us cold towels and a welcome drink. The captain joined us after a few minutes and shared what the crew had organized for our time onboard. We spent the next week paddle boarding, seabobing and snorkeling. The sea life was abundant and allowed us to experience stingray, starfish, an array of different fish and the most precious turtles! The chef made each meal a delightful experience with delicious and creative desserts. The accommodations were 5 star in every way! Our bedroom/bath was spotless with soft sheets and fluffy towels. It is a perfectly laid out vessel for 8 people, we never felt crowded, yet when it was time to gather the spaces were intimate. The combination of this crew and vessel was truly an experience not to miss! We will return.

What an unbelievable memory for all of us.
I will never forget you infecting our teenage grandsons with the thrill of scuba diving, as well as letting Max master the E-Foil.
Quite a feat providing fun and entertainment for people from 4 to 80!! For me personally bringing our family together was worth every penny. Plus I love to snorkel. My morning Yoga as the sun rose will be a memory I will always treasure.
THANK YOU for the skills you have, to make this trip a spectacular excursion to the ocean (BVI) for everyone.
The very definition of Luxury, we will long remember!

Thank you for treating the family so well and allowing us to have a wonderful week together. You are all consummate professionals. thanks for the patience and catering so well to my unusual dietary needs! Next time I'll dive deeper than 18'
Great trip - thanks again

What a wonderful week of fun. You made our week extra special! The food was out of this world, the service was beyond expectations and the three of you made this vacation super fun. I will not forget this trip! Thank you, thank you!

What a week! I/we cannot thank you enough for sailing us, caring for us, laughing with, feeding us.. All of the things. This trip has truly been a dream, being on Relentless with you all. These memories we have made forever are imprinted on our minds. The surprise of a lifetime being here with all of you. Thank you for sharing this incredible time with us. We’ll be in touch, if any in our dreams for a while! Be well! You’re all amazing!

This past week has been the epitome of a true vacation with this crew taking care of navigation, all meals, and keeping a drink in our hands at just the right time. All we had to do was forget about routine life back in Seattle and experience a true vacation. You were all so professional, gracious, knowledgeable, and kind. Your "hospitality quotient" is a 10+!!
Chef, your meals were both artful and delicious and we eagerly anticipated each one. WOW! You made homemade pasta on the boat! Captain, we trusted you from the beginning and you have the rare quality of knowledge, skill, and kindness. Steward, you were always there thinking of our needs with perfect anticipation which is an exceptional quality. This week flew by and I feel so appreciative of how you three took care of us. Take good care and I truly hope our paths will cross again.
P.S. Brad's birthday music, candles, and profiteroles were amazing! Thank you!

Thank you to the most amazing Seahome crew ever! You were all amazing and truly made our trip so wonderful! Thank you for the kindness to our kiddos and the amazing food, service, and memories. We hope to do this again with all of you soon!

Thanks so much for all the adventures and food for the trip! So delightful and relaxing. I am in awe of your teamwork and organization which makes things run so smoothly. All of the food was such a gourmet treat for me-love all the seafood!! Scallops-yum! Thanks for all the great views, sunsets, moonrises, etc.Paddleboarding @ sunset-awesome! Best to you on your own adventures. We appreciate you!

Thank you for a truly magical seven days of family is endlessly grateful for what flawless trip we have had. An exceptional crew. We feel so lucky. From the delicious food that we will miss dearly to the beautiful water, foil, tricks, boating lessons, putting up with Aaron‘s endless questions, fishing attempts. Sea life escapades, from dolphins to turtles to Squid and goats. This week was perfect and how could I not mention the beach day arrangements, which is a day we will all cherish for a lifetime. Thank you all for everything.

Wow! What an incredible week. Thank you for helping us create the most incredible memories for our family and friends. You surprised and delighted us 3 times a day with the most delicious food, the stops we made never disappointed us, the views, activities and guided tours and history and background were extraordinary. Thank you both for our trip of a lifetime. You are both amazing at what you do! Thank you

A trip of a Lifetime and the crew made sure we were treated to a First Class Boat, First Class Captaincy, and First Class Food. I would recommend Respite At Sea. We were allowed to sit back and relax while the crew did ALL the work and at the same time waited on us hand and foot. What a team.

Our chartered vacation was incredible. The crew were absolutely fantastic. From the small details to the new adventures every day, it could not have been a better experience. Ultra was a beautiful boat. Very well maintained, clean, and comfortable for everyone on the trip. The food was BEYOND our expectations! The chef is an incredible chef. The food was exquisite, the presentation was beautiful, and every day the menu was completely different. She was able to accommodate all of our dietary restrictions and made everyone feel special. Our Captain, went above and beyond to ensure we were having an amazing experience. They were extremely attentive to our requests and was very knowledgeable. Every aspect of the trip was planned out and there wasn’t a detail that was overlooked. It was my husband’s birthday, and they made sure it was a special and memorable one. I cannot speak highly enough about the crew. They are a great team.”

Thanks a million for a most memorable trip aboard your beautiful yacht! The memories made aboard will be something to be treasured by all of us for years. The food was incredible, the views breathtaking, but all would not have been as enjoyable without all of you creating such an exceptional experience. We hope you enjoyed our company as much as we enjoyed yours.

It is extremely rare in life when you find reality substantially exceeds ones expectations. This was one of those times. Our week was in a word, extraordinary.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week on The Peddler.  We appreciate all you and the crew did to make us comfortable and happy.  We were totally spoiled all week! It is our hope to return for a future voyage.

Thank you providing my family and with the most amazing trip around the BVI. This vacation is one that I'll look back on with fond memories and lots of laughs for a lifetime. Initially, I was a little nervous about living on G3 for close to a week; I'd never spent such a long time away from land before. Happy to report that I have discovered a new favorite travel method, and hope that I will be able to do something similar to this again in the near future. I want to give a special shoutout to the chef for working with all of my family's dietary restrictions; I am aware of how annoying it is to have to make like 6 different plates for one dinner and completely understand if we are known as the charter who would only eat chicken and lettuce after this. I wish you both the best on your future charters. Thank you so much again!

Well - Officially the best vacation of ours and we have vacationed a lot. The warmth, care, fun, love, safety, precision and so much more of what this amazing trio provided was nothing short of magical! the BVI has allowed us to learn so much about ourselves, this planet, our world, and our overall connectedness to others. I attribute Every moment of our time here was so special - even the smallest of moments to the unexpected. From the Baths to the hammerhead shark sighting and sea turtles to the joys of jumping off the balcony at Willie T . I want to take this crew home with us. Amazing humans who we feel so blessed to call friends. We cannot wait to book another charter with you and are so grateful we had the opportunity to be with them for an entire week - what a gift!

We absolutely loved the yacht Island Hoppin'! So spacious and comfortable. The Primary cabin was so comfortable with an overabundance of storage. There were also so many places to plug in your electronics. We felt so pampered. The beds would be made while we were eating breakfast and turn down the beds and on the electric candles each evening (yes, I realize that is an amenity, but still nice!). The bathroom had a window to see out and was stocked with nice towels, body wash, shampoo, and conditioner on the wall of the shower, and had other items one might forget while traveling, in the cabinet.

The toys on the boat were super fun! The kids all enjoyed learning, and mastering, the e-foil! There were 4 SUPs onboard along with many floats. When we boarded, we had Yeti-type mugs (Bote) made up with our names on them. They were to go with all of the Bote-brand toys so that the very strong magnets on the bottom would connect to the magnets on the floats and SUPs. Super-efficient to not have our drinks/cocktails fall into the water!

Captain was very professional and fun while supervising our 2 kids on their open water dives to complete their PADI certification. Afterwards, my husband and other son, who were already PADI certified, all got to dive together. Captain was attentive to all their safety yet provided an entertaining experience for all. The diving and snorkeling equipment were in great shape as well. The lifting platform (where the dingy is transported) was wonderful to have for the divers, too, making it a breeze for the divers to enter and exit the water.

Since I was the one to arrange the trip, I guess I was considered the "primary". I actually enjoyed that part especially since I am the mom of the group and know everyone there! A nice little perk! 😉

The crew paid close attention to our preference sheet, including the food allergies. They had all the alcohol we preferred and also had plenty of food and protein to make our middle son happy and satiated. The food was all creative and delicious! Some of us even got recipes from chef! The foods were all beautifully presented onto a beautifully decorated table which changed themes each night. The cocktails were delicious and creative. They also let my husband and son play with creating their own drinks.

We loved having the Bluetooth speakers onboard to hook into and the wifi...ridiculous! They had Starlink. We all commented that Wifi was better than any of us had in our homes!

A nice little perk, which we did not use, was a projector in the galley that plays movies on the shades of the sliding glass doors. I would imagine it'd be great for stormy days (heaven forbid) or children.

We would highly recommend this crew and also Island Hoppin' 55!! Both made this family vacation absolutely perfect!

Thank you for a truly amazing week on True Story! It's been perfect in every way...fun relaxing, and great food!!!
You have thought of everything - all we had to do was relax and enjoy!
As you know our True Story trip almost didn't happen as our oldest daughter and her husband canceled for a great reason. Now we all can't wait to come back to stay with you on True Story next year with all the family including the blessing of a new baby granddaughter too!

Thank you all for the best vacation the Kay fam has ever had! We truly do not want to leave. Thank you for putting up with our millions of questions and showing us so many beautiful places. The snorkeling was the most amazing we’ve experienced. The dining experience onboard is second to none! Every meal was perfection—delicious and beautifully designed to our palates. We will miss these amazing meals. We hope we can come back for another fabulous week with y’all!”

Thank you for the phenomenal hospitality. I couldn't of asked for anything more. I had visions of how good the trip could be and you exceeded all my hopes.

We cannot thank you enough for everything you've done for our family this past week. There was not one detail that was overlooked - the amazing food, the wonderful itinerary and your hospitality has been something we will remember forever. Our family has never taken a trip like this on a boat, and now we are spoiled - don't think anything else can top it! We are sad to go home, but are deeply appreciative for such a wonderful vacation. We hope to be back on La Sirena in the future!

I enjoyed this trip so much! I will always remember this moment! Thank you for making memories with us and adding more joy to my life. - Avery (age 12)

This trip will always have a special place in my heart. I made memories that will last a lifetime. I will miss yall both. - Molly (age 12)

Thank yall so much for one of the best weeks of my life! I will forever be so grateful for this experience and all the special memories I have made. I will miss yall both so much! Love yall! - Caroline (age 15)

We cannot thank you enough for the incredible, soul-fixing, bucket filling week. The time on the boat with our boys was simply amazing. You helped heal our hearts and brought so much joy to our family. Our amazing captain, thank you for keeping us safe, planning the days and the great advice and words of wisdom with these boys of ours! And Chef, the sweetest spirit on the boat, your food was incredible. Thanks to all of you for helping to make our 27th anniversary so special, what a great night. Fishing, karaoke, game time, amazing meals... so many incredible memories. We love y’all and will forever remember this week!

Simply the best!! Still thinking about the experience weeks later and cannot thank the crew for the week that will last in our family for a life time. Thank you for everything.

​Thank you for an amazing week! Our family had a wonderful time, everything was perfect. You outdid yourselves from the hospitality, itinerary and delicious food. We hope to cross paths with you again soon! Please stay in touch and find us in Annapolis!

We had an absolutely fabulous time! The food was amazing, the crew the best and the captain so very skilled! You made us feel comfortable from the very moment we arrived on board! The best vacation ever and we hope to join you all again very soon!

Wow! What an Amazing week you treated us to on the Mare Blu! Captain, your knowledge of the BVI's exceeded our expectation. Thank you for all of the beautiful and memorable spots you took us to. Chef, your passion for cooking really shines through in every meal you prepare. We all wish we could take you home with us. We'll be the first to buy your e-book! Stewardess, your fun and spunky personality kept us feeling young and your delicious drinks kept us feeling tipsy! Thank you all for the exceptional service!

Best of tines! Fabulous vessel! The BVI Archipelago Rocks! In-light of blustery weather in the beginning, the venues, anchorages, + crew made for plenty of good fun, water sports and adventures. Not to mention the luxury of Ohana! You guys rocked service in a smooth fashion and delivered 5 star service, care + fun!
Thank you! Ohana for Ohana, you made us feel like Ohana!

Super impressed with the special design of the Oceana - layout was perfect for my family of 5. The crew were quite the duo, complimented each other quite well! Captain is everything you want in a Captain. You can see the joy in his eyes when his guests are enjoying his itinerary- which was perfectly designed to experience the best of the BVI. Chef made us comfortable and kept delighting us with her meals. So sweet and friendly.

What an amazing week we had, thank you! There wasn’t a detail overlooked, or an adventure missed, or a meal that wasn’t done to perfection! You went above and beyond, and yet made it look so very effortless. Your knowledge of the BVI, and all the amenities on the boat, led us to enjoy absolutely everything we wanted to in our short week… from diving to hiking, snorkeling to shelling, sup’ing to fishing, and even a little bar hopping! We fit it all in without having to make any big decisions or contemplate where we would go each day. Thank you!
The greatest gift to us was being together as a family, disconnecting from the world and getting to know and enjoy the two of you. You are so very skilled at what you do. The meals, snacks, and fancy drinks exceeded all expectation! I’m not quite sure how you pull it off in that tiny galley, and yet each meal was five star, plated to perfection, and delicious. You quietly accommodated our dietary restrictions, and not just during main course, but dessert too!
We are going to miss the bin of Sun Bum, colorful Turkish towels, personalized Yeti’s and much much more!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! What an amazing time our group had in spite of maverick rogue swimmers, a random mix of people who didn't know each other well but got to know each other VERY well.
thank you fro your impeccable attention to every detail to make us feel incredibly taken care of. This trip has made an impression on all of us and it wouldn't have been the same without your professionalism and fun attitudes.
Thanks for an amazing trip!

Words truly fall short in adequately describing our time on Ebb and Flow! This week has filled our hearts, souls and bellys 😀! What a privilege to spend time in God's creation in the company of friends and our new friends . We are leaving with lifetime memories, rested, restored and I am SO grateful. Thank you to the crew for the gracious hospitality, attention to details, warmth and patience for this girls trip! We are now forever friends and I hope we will have the chance to sail together again one day! What an undeserved gift this week was!

Thank you so much for taking such good care of us during our week on Island Standard Time! It was beyond incredible and your hospitality is legendary. We'll miss your delicious food, laughs and kindness. We appreciate you putting up with our rowdy group! You're the best of the best!

Thank you so much for creating a trip of a lifetime! It was wonderful to get to know you both! May your life be filled with lots of love and travel! Thank you!

Way beyond expectations! What a wonderful sailing and culinary experience! It was a definite “must do again” because both of you are amazing! The energy, laughs, and the effort you both made to create the perfect “esprit du couer’.
Please know how much we appreciated all your work in making our voyage a very memorable experience! I look forward to seeing you again under sail.

Your fun personalities and attentiveness made our trip amazingly fun! Chef, your cooking is amazing and definitely a highlight of our trip. We appreciate your work ethic and all the love you put into making sure our experience was memorable! Captain, your flexibility and patience with us made us feel heard and at ease! Thank you for being fun and introducing us to new things like spear fishing! Both of you did an amazing job at making sure we experienced the best of the Bahamas and Caleb assisting Paul with finding the perfect spot to re propose was the most beautiful backdrop I never could have envisioned without your help! Good luck with your season and have tons of fun!

Thank you for a most delightful trip with the most AMAZING hospitality, cuisine and kind, caring, spirit aboard the PRINCESS MILA. The delight and passion you have your livelihood shows in all that you do, to make the experience here with you in the BAHAMAS, Cat Island & George Town. A memory of a lifetime! We are truly grateful and wish you all the Best and you continue to make more memories for others to ENJOY!

AMAZING-pretty much the perfect crew. They are young and happy, experienced and energetic, thoughtful and caring. They managed everything as if it were nothing, all the while making sure we had everything we needed and more. The first day when I went down to our cabin and saw that the bed was made- I thought- OMG this is really over the top!
They are fun to be with, manage the crew/guest relationship really well- and for guests who are sailors, and alert to all the stuff that goes into managing a boat and sailing and and and- they did it all with ease and quiet communication and confidence.
Plus, the boat itself is really pretty awesome. Very comfortable, well designed, accommodating. We got to do a lot of sailing (hooray!) and that was great.
The chef is truly an amazing cook. The time and energy she puts into her meals- her presentation, the quality, all of it is very yummy and impressive.

All went great! We loved this boat and loved the crew. We think the crew had a lovely time with us as well. The captain was on top of all aspects, especially communication. Loved his can-do attitude. 10/10 would charter with MAREA LA NAUTICA again

Thank you for a fabulous week. Great times doesn’t even really begin to describe the experience. Your willingness to share your version of heaven has been eye opening! For a kid from the deserts of the west I’ve never experienced what the sea has to offer. Thank you for showing me a world I didn’t understand or really knew existed. I am no sailor, but feel somewhat accomplished in the basics. Thank you all for an incredible experience. Cheers to the opportunity to do it sooner rather than later.

Captain and crew, what an amazing experience! Best vacation we have ever had! Providing us with the very best food and it was always made with love😊 All the suggestions on restaurants at islands like Syros, Mykonos, and Paros from Captain were perfect! Deckhand is one of the hardest working and constantly in motion people we have ever met. So happy too! The stewardess was always greeting us with a smile and a drink every morning and every time we got back on the boat! We could not have asked for a better crew! Greece was amazing and we can't wait to come back!

Everything was amazing. Such a lovely crew and phenomenal Captain. We would love to come back. Thank you so much.

Thank you very much. All was great. the crew is excellent, very polite and the service was very good. The food was amazing and the crew were great. Thank you.

Perfect trip! Crew goes way above and beyond. Definitely leaving relaxed, cared for and blessed! You all work incredibly hard. Thank you.

Elly crew, thank you for having us. Seriously it was the best holiday I ever had. Amazing and very polite crew. The yacht had everything. We will be back very soon!

We really enjoyed the experience! The food was amazing and the service was incredible. Thank you so much.

Excellent people who make your adventure as wonderful as it can be. Best places to anchor, best food and best assistance in all your needs. Kids say that it was their best vacation; Endless swimming, direct access to the most clear waters and safe water toy experiences. Thank you so much.

P.s special thanks to chef...meals better than any restaurant we visited.

Outstanding crew in every way. Superb service, friendly and a total joy to be with. First Class.

We have been on many yachts and this was the very best crew we have ever had. Chef is an artistic genius - the food was amazing. Everything was fantastic. We would love to charter again with this wonderful crew.

The boat is beautiful, but the crew is exceptional and really made our trip absolutely wonderful. They are all friendly and attentive - truly special people

“Serenity certainly lives up to its name!!
Our week on board was filled with wonderful service, delicious food, and lots of fun and laughter. The boat was always professionally maintained, and it was obvious the crew took much pride in their work”

Incredible! We could not have had a better time.

The islands were beautiful, and every suggestion was fantastic ( especially the restaurant where we saw the Kardashians!) The food was amazing! Every meal felt like we were at a Michelin-starred restaurant. We couldn’t stop eating it all, from the lobster pasta to the Sea Bass Risotto! Please ship all your desserts to us!!!
Thank you for always making our time on the boat more fun and participating in our TikTok! Learning Greek with you was so much fun; we will remember all your phrases.
Thanks so much for everything! I am lucky to have met you and blessed to have you as a new friend. I admire and respect your humility, work ethic, and passion for the things you do! I look forward to seeing you again in Greece or the US. We love you, and we are going to miss you so much! You were always so attentive and bubbly. Your presence made our trip unforgettable and we were so happy to hang out with you. Thank you for making exceptional recommendations and taking us to the most beautiful islands! We were able to experience a unique trip thanks to your guidance. Thank you for making everything run smoothly and making sure we were always happy.
We are overwhelmed with gratitude for the beautiful family vacation you crafted for us. It FAR EXCEEDED our expectations. The best prt is that we feel our family became a little large as we now believe the crew are family.
WE LOVE YOU, PAREAKI crew! Thank you for new friends and good memories. We are so thankful for this experience with you all!

We all had the most incredible time onboard with you! All the crew were just amazing you were always so kind and caring for each one of us! Captains suggestions of ports were perfect and we feel like we have all fallen in love with the real Greece! Was fabulous taking us on little trips to explore caves along the shore in the rib! Everywhere was a real adventure – we are all so sad to be leaving you! Good luck to all of you and we will be sure to cross paths again someday!

Every single second exceeded our expectations! Not only do you have a beautiful yacht but combined with such a knowledgeable and experienced crew makes for an unforgettable trip. The food was amazing. From the moment you picked us up in Athens we knew it was going to be a fabulous adventure!!

Our group of three couples spent seven glorious days aboard Koukles touring the Cyclades to celebrate our 40th anniversary. This Italian-designed yacht is a floating luxury hotel, beautifully appointed: from curated bath amenities to daily pressed table linens and towels to comfortable beds with generous pillows and well-equipped cabins including televisions.
We stopped at five islands, several smaller islands and some larger with charming ports, such as Naoussa on Paros. We enjoyed the natural moorings especially at Iraklia for private coves with crystal clear waters to swim and use the various water toys (our favorite was the SeaBob!)
The best part was Koukles’ amazing crew. They anticipated our every need, keeping our cabins spotless, navigating to calm waters to ensure our comfort, suggesting itineraries and excursions with guides while in port, and coordinating our travel arrangements before and after leaving Koukles.
And we were fed like kings. Fresh seafood such as lobster pasta and large prawns, glorious Greek salads, and local favorite dishes are expertly prepared and seasoned with fresh herbs. Our chef gets stars from all of us!
The steward catered superbly to our every need, from cocktails to laundry to protecting us from the wind and serving us elegantly at mealtimes.
The crew also planned and surprised us with a 40th-anniversary party complete with cake sparklers balloons and champagne. It was a warm and thoughtful approach, as with everything else.
Captain is an experienced navigator, of the seas and of his guests. We were made to feel so comfortable and enchanted by this trip that we hated to leave him, the crew, and Koukles. We highly recommend Koukles for a wonderful vacation in the Greek islands.

We have absolutely loved our week with you and will remember this trip for the rest of our lives. Kakuna Matata is a beautiful vessel but you all made this such a wonderful vacation. You are such a wonderful captain and we felt so confident in your ability to get us safely between the islands and chef, the food!! Beautiful, delicious, food all day and every day! Thank you all for all of your hospitality and graciousness.

We had a great time on the Star Link. The yacht was beautiful and really practical especially the dining table and sundeck on top deck with covering was used often. It is so nice to have dinner on top deck because of the view! Crew was great and very helpful . The chef made the most excellent food with every day a Greek touch really great!
Choosing the saronic sea was beautiful, nice calm bays and the picturesque towns of Hydra and Spetses stoke our hearts. Also Navplion and Poros was great. Thank you.

“Our cruise was super beautiful. We saw the islands we wanted to see! The staff served us wonderfully: fantastic, kind, efficient, present, sweet, and patient. Thank you for everything - We hope to come back soon.”
“Thank you for making this trip so special despite our chaotic family!! We really appreciate all you did for us. I hope you have a fantastic rest of the summer; good luck with the future charters!”
“Our journey wouldn't be enjoyable without the assistance of a good crew, and if they are armed with sympathy, it means you're on 'Karma' where Tatiana is present. The captain ensures our safety, anchoring us securely at the bow, while at the stern, the two sailors with the ropes, the fine pilot, and the beautiful lunch. The cook always ensures our stomachs are satisfied.”
Charter Guests July 2024

Thank you everyone for an amazing trip !
We really enjoyed getting to explore the islands with everyone .I wish we didn't have to leave and could continue hanging out with you !
Much love!

OMG – the meals belonged in a 5 star, top of the line restaurant in the most famous cities in the world! Each day was a complete surprise and there was never a “let-down” in regards to the delicious treats that were prepared. So yummy!!! Can't wait till we return. We loved traveling through the Greek Islands with you all. Thank you so much for your hard work to give us such a memorable vacation.

What a dream of a week! I thank you for blessing and inspiring us with your servant hearts. What a wonderful memory y'all created for our family! You executed every detail flawlessly. Your food was the best and the presentation was amazing. Too pretty to eat, but we forced ourselves. Endless Summer is beautiful and obviously maintained to perfection. You anticipated our every desire. The boys really enjoyed you all! Thank you for the dream vacation, many blessings to you each of you!

What an incredible experience you all gave us! From the wealth of knowledge, to the incredible and endless food and drinks, to the great times together we had...Thank you so very much for the memories of our Makani II experience with you, we will take with us for always.

The guys and their family had an incredible time onAloia and we hope to book with you all again in the future. All the feedback is GREAT!

Great, helpful crew. We had a wonderful trip. Thank you.

Thank you very much for once in a lifetime vacation! Your hospitality, spirit, warmth, and friendship made the trip so wonderful for all of us. We really appreciate the incredible service, adventures, scenery, world class food, and boating/Yachting. We will miss you and hope to see you again, either on the high seas or in Las Vegas!

This trip was my favorite trip I've ever been on. The food was absolutely incredible, words can't describe how much I loved it. Tubing was soooo much fun but I was scared for my life. I wish I could never leave. I hope you remember us!! We will be back. You made this place feel like home.

I've never taken a trip like this, so didn't know what to expect, but it was absolutely wonderful! The boat was fantastic, Greece is an amazing place to spend a vacation ... but I must say that the crew were hands-down what made the week truly special. Their knowledge and expertise were matched by their gracious hospitality, fun sense of humor, and kind hearts. And they are sensational cooks, as well! I enjoyed every bit of this trip, and they were a big part of it all. Thanks for asking, and thanks for putting it all together.
