Your Crew

CAPTAIN SAM & CHEF/MATE ZINA

British-born physics graduate, Sam, has worked as a full-time captain for more than a decade, accumulating thousands of miles at sea, including a transatlantic passage. He is committed to ensuring the highest level of safety, service, and fun for every guest. As soon as you step on board he will help you to feel relaxed and at home. His long list of interests includes BBQing, making cocktails, stargazing & talking about how stuff works (his former life was spent teaching kids in London). For fitness he enjoys water sports, especially diving & anything with a sail. Sometimes he plays the guitar, quite badly, so better not to ask him for a song.

Chef Zina is Ukrainian and grew up in the seaside town of Yalta in Crimea. She worked in the hotel business from a young age and lived in Italy before meeting Sam and then training as a yacht chef in France, England, and Thailand. Guests love Zina’s kindness and her prowess in the galley, where she consistently produces beautiful and delicious meals. Her other interests include music, dancing, swimming & diving.

Sam and Zina met on holiday where they spent long romantic days alone on the beach, dreaming of a life together in the sun. They married almost immediately on Little Bay Beach, Anguilla, and hatched a plan to work together in their dream job, which they call “running a floating 5-star hotel in paradise”. They have been sailing professionally side-by-side, full-time for eight years, all over the eastern Caribbean, across the Atlantic, and around much of the Mediterranean. They consider themselves very lucky to be living in beautiful places, sharing their happiness, excellent food, and good vibes with their guests.

First Rate & Top Notch

This was our first catamaran charter sail and it was wonderful! The snorkeling, swimming, and sailboat are all amazing! First rate and top notch! However, what stands out the most were the impeccable meals, stellar service, and non stop attention to detail from both of you!! I cannot imagine a finer duo anywhere on the seas. I cannot sing your praises loud enough or long enough. You're both so sweet, accommodating and perfectionists in every way. Thank you both so much for a magnificent time and memory. Your futures are bright as you're both amazing together. We love you guys!

Pampered

This crew is top of their game. So fun. So professional. The cooking rivals any high end restaurant we’ve ever eaten in and was delivered that level every single meal! Truly amazing. The captain made amazing cocktails and took us to secluded anchorages we have never seen and we loved every one. We had great sailing and we felt comfortable, pampered, safe and happy every minute we were on board. We would sail with these two anytime, anywhere. Respite herself is a beautiful and very comfortable boat. Not one complaint.

Exceeded Expectations

I can not think or hoped of a better way to start traveling again. This week with you exceeded so many expectations. Starting with the most delicious gourmet food we have ever had on a boat. The amazing diving with eels and sting rays and the contagious smiles brightening every day. A big thank you for your kindness and generosity. This was a much needed trip, so memorable. Big thanks!!”

Phenomenal Trip

Thank you so much for providing one of the best Christmas trips to date. The fun hospitality knowledge you both provide as well as a clear passion for what you do was the difference maker between this and anything we have enjoyed before. Aside from the unfortunate conch horn lesson the experience was without fault. Thank you again foe all that you did to create a fantastic and eternally memorable vacation. You absolutely made this trip phenomenal.

Amazing Trip

What an amazing trip! Respite At Sea is beautiful and makes great use of space. We loved all the outdoor seating. The crew took care of all our needs and have wonderful stories to tell. Every meal was a delight. We would love to sail on Respite At Sea again.

Fantastic Trip

This has been a FANTASTIC trip. Many special memories will stay with us. Highlights include; The baths with its stunning granite rocks. Devils Bay, not only because of the beautiful colour of the water, but also because of the COLD CHAMPAGNE that you brought to us as the perfect time. The marvelous snorkeling sites you guys points out, in particular the Indians and the Caves. You are an amazing couple! Thank you for making us feel as if we were at home, thank you for being such fun and feeding us with exquisite dishes. Thank you for all your guidance for the scuba team and for helping sailors enjoy the sailing. We are coming back next year, so we will not say 'adios', we will say 'hasta luego'.

Very Impressed

The captain, the salty sea dog was an absolute legend! Great wind awareness and sailing skills, he took the time to teach us a lot throughout the week. We had so much fun with him and the chef, both always smiling with an amazing ability to make you all feel like one big family. They make an awesome couple and a great team on the boat. The chef went over and above with her hosting and made an incredible variety of fresh and delicious food - I was very impressed by the quality and variety and felt very lucky to have our own chef onboard, could not recommend them both enough.
