Booking early is highly recommended to secure your preferred yacht. Please note yachts in Greece, Croatia and the rest of the Mediterranean do not charter during this time. Most yachts will be in the British Virgin Islands.

The boat was a very comfortable and brand new Lagoon 78. Everything is very well thought out and it's a very comfortable and completely un-cramped experience. Felt like a perfect size for the group and a great layout if you want to interact with the crew (but there is still plenty of opportunity for privacy!)
Wonderful experience overall. Everyone on the trip was gushing afterwards on how exceptional the crew was - we expected a nice boat (we could see the pictures!) but crew went above and beyond. The chef served amazing food everyday and we are all picky foodies! And somehow when someone mentioned something that would be nice to have at a dinner conversation it would be in the meals next day. Also did a great job serving more food when a couple people started begging for delicious scraps. Everything was setup beautifully, and also paid attention to small
details - she saw I was a Snickers fiend and they started appearing on my nightstand after a few days... drinks were exceptional as well and I had one of the best mint juleps I ever had on the boat - this is a genuinely annoying drink to make and she had never made one before, but she looked up the ingredients with a smile and happily crafted a delicious beverage.
The crew was chatty, knowledgeable, and cheerful. We also had a beginner swimmer with us and he felt completely comfortable in the water with her around. The group had dozens of varied interests and wants from the trip and not only did they all get satisfied with the itinerary, the boat ride was exceptionally comfortable. We were lucky to catch a bonito tuna the chef made for lunch!

We sailed with our family of four and our friends, family of 5. We have sailed the BVI two times prior. This experience was amazing. Our crew were extremely professional and some of the best we have sailed with.
The boat was immaculate and they kept it that way throughout our trip. The captain was very knowledgeable and accommodating with all of our travel wishes and the deckhand kept the drinks flowing, toys available and provided a little comic relief here and there. The chef was such an amazing chef! I can't say enough. We are a big crew with very different likes and dislikes and she kept us all happy and satisfied! Bring your appetite!
The accommodations were great. Plenty of room for all of us. I brought a LOT of clothes and was able to find room for everything! I should have brought a little less tho! Beds were comfy, showers were a good size and everything was new and up to date.
We would highly recommend and can't wait to go back!

We had the most amazing time aboard Karma. The boat was impeccably clean, well appointed, and decorated beautifully. The trip was spectacular! The crew were extremely professional and knowledgeable.

This week was amazing! The chef killed it in the kitchen… those lunch salads were heavenly! The captain took us around to all the hot spots, and finished our last day in Norman Island, which was our favorite with the most amazing views. The staff was amazing, took us to all the great spots and made sure we had the best time. The crew took care of every detail and my best advice is to let them plan the itinerary — amazing time! Incredible week aboard the Seven! This crew is the best — knowledgeable and fun.
Amazing week — crew, food, BVI’s exceeded expectations!
Awesome boat, but even better:
C — Created memories we will never forget
R — Raised the bar for every future trip
E — Every detail handled with care
W — We couldn’t have asked for better

This trip was an amazing time with our family on an amazing boat with the most wonderful crew! The crew made the trip - the amazing meals, their grace, care for us and the boat and hospitality were just wonderful! We cannot thank them and feel spoiled by the entire experience.
We will never be able to replicate this terrific week but made the best memories here. The BVI are beautiful, the Wanderlust is a one of a kind boat & seeing it all with the crew catering and caring for us was truly an experience of a lifetime! A huge thanks to them both!

(Review from crew's previous yacht) The biggest thank you to Wanderlust. From the moment we stepped aboard this wonderful catamaran. we were met by the most genuine souls. They are the perfect compliment to each other... providing exceptional service and experience to our family. This trip truly exceeded our greatest expectations and can't imagine there is a better crew. We wish them a lifetime of success, happiness, and adventure and hope our paths cross again for another incredible voyage.
Much love and appreciation

We were incredibly pleased with the trip-the boat was new, spotless, and comfortable. Levi and Lauren were exceptional-they worked together beautifully. We felt safe, enjoyed the visits to the many special places, appreciated the food, and celebrations! I have already shared Epic's contact information with several people. And you will hear from us again!

Thank you for a spectacular time back on MG! The food, daily cocktails, beach excursions and all the little moments in between were just perfect. We cannot thank you enough for being so accommodating and wonderful with Adeline, she had the best time ‘washing’ the boat and going fast on the tender, and absolutely loved every meal!
We cannot wait to be back on board again next time. Xx

Our first time in the Exumas and it exceeded all of our expectations! The boat was perfect, the water was beautiful and the weather was great…. But most importantly the crew hit it out of the park! What an incredible job they both did on this charter. The food, the service, the fun - everything about them made this trip extra special! We haven’t even left the boat yet but were looking at dates for 2027 to rebook! Can't wait to see you guys again in the future.
