8. Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
Our boat charter experience truly was the trip of a lifetime, and without a doubt, the captain and chef were the highlight of it all. From the moment we stepped on board, they made us feel completely at home, and by the end of the week, they felt more like family than crew.
The captain was exceptional—professional, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what he does. Every stop on the itinerary was thoughtfully chosen, and we always felt safe, relaxed, and well taken care of. He balanced adventure and downtime perfectly, making each day feel special.
And the chef—absolutely incredible. Every meal was not only delicious but beautifully presented, with so much attention to detail. They went above and beyond to cater to our preferences, and each dish somehow topped the last. Dining on board became one of our favorite parts of the trip.
Together, they created an experience that was seamless, personalized, and unforgettable. Every detail—from the condition of the boat to the daily plans and meals—was absolutely perfect. We can’t recommend them highly enough and will cherish this experience forever.

We had such a great experience working with this company from start to finish. They made planning our boat charter vacation incredibly easy and stress-free. Every question we had was answered quickly, and their responsiveness really stood out—it felt like they were always one step ahead.

Everything was extremely well organized, from the initial planning stages to the final details of the trip. You could tell they were thorough and experienced, making sure nothing was overlooked. Thanks to their attention to detail, our vacation went off without a hitch.
I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking to plan a seamless and memorable boat charter experience.

Upon arrival and during your charter, were the staff of the charter company friendly and accommodating?
Yes. It would of been helpful to have them explain how the tokens for alcoholic beverages worked when we checked in. I brought some beer from the store at the marina. I knew they had wine. But if I'd known they had beer on board it would have been a lot better to buy it from them. The captain was a nice guy however his English and communication skills were hard to understand.

Yes.
Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
It turned out to be Easter weekend when we went to St Barth. The day we were there most of the shops were closed for Easter. And being we sighed up for St Barth dream it would have been so easy to adjust the schedule to accommodate for Easter so we could have been in st Barth when the shops were open.
