    8. Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
    The yacht was very comfortable. We ended up only having one other couple on board with us with our captain and chef. I think if we would have had a total of 4 couples it would have been too crowded. We had the perfect amount of space to spread out and have a great experience. Out captain Alden was great! He was always looking out for our safety and comfort. He was friendly, very involved in giving us an excellent experience, and making us laugh and smile. Our chef Julian was excellent! EVERY meal was delicious and well presented. Julian is a hard worker and was always one step ahead of everyone, making sure all of our wants and needs were met.

    Yes, it was very comfortable and clean.
    Was the yacht well ventilated?
    Yes, ventilation and temperatures were wonderful.
    Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
    The crew was amazing. Tyrone, the captain and Max the chef were top-notch.
    If we ever broke another charter, definitely, I would request both of them.
    Was the food good and well presented?
    The food was amazing, very flavorful and plenty fall. Max, the chef was very good about making sure everybody got what they prefer. The varieties were fantastic. He’s truly amazing.
    8. Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
    Tyrone and Max were wonderful to hang out with we felt like we were with family. They didn’t feel like a crew. Tyrone, the captain was very good about taking us to wherever we wanted to go and explaining to us every night what we were going to do the following day. He was very respectful and fun to be around. Max, the chef was amazing and communicating what we wanted or didn’t want what time food was going to be there he was always on time and the food was spot on. They both have amazing energy.

    Recommendations:

    1. It would have been helpful for the crew to provide recommendations/suggestions of things to see or do at the various areas as we the guests are not familiar with the area. Understanding that we the guest will make the final decision.

    2. It would have been helpful to know some helpful information or history about the areas or the different islands as we sail by, etc.

    Was the yacht comfortable and clean?
    Everything about the yacht was great except for the day our fresh water pump broke. I would have expected Festiva to send a new pump by water immediately as it’s a common part. I’m a boater of 32 years. But the captain fixed it several times. Also underway our bedroom door would open on its own and the crew was aware of it. The captain and chef made the week amazing!
    Was the yacht well ventilated?
    Yes but head would get stinky.
    Was the crew friendly and accommodating?
    Top notch! The best!
    Was the food good and well presented?
    Also the best!
    8. Additional comments about the yacht and crew?
    Knowledgeable to see the best places.

    We could not have asked for better crew! Audrey was so friendly and welcoming and boy can she cook! She is such a beautiful person, and a hard worker.
    Masa was a joy, he was well prepared for our group and made our week unforgettable. He has a wealth of knowledge not only on sailing but the history of the islands, places to visit; we were in good hands!
    They worked well as a team…. even tho this was their first time working together! Everything went very smooth.

    Each meal was perfectly prepared and presented beautifully. Audrey can work magic in that small kitchen! Masa handled the table setting and the service like a pro!

    Rating of Charter Company & Yacht:
    (5 Being the Highest) 5
    Upon arrival and during your charter, were the staff of the charter company friendly and accommodating?
    Yes, extremely helpful. Everything was already in order and they made us feel welcome.
    The office staff checked us in quickly and introduced us to our captain and chef. The captain was outstanding! His welcoming attitude and humor made our trip VERY enjoyable. Our chef was french and was learning english. His food preparation outstanding.
    Did the staff do a good job familiarizing you with the yacht and its equipment?
    The captain gave us an orientation and explained what he expected while on his boat. We felt well informed before leaving the dock.
    Was the yacht clean and in good working condition?
    Yes, the boat was in excellent condition and stocked with an enormous amount of beverages.
    Was the yacht’s cooking and cleaning equipment sufficient?
    Yes, the chef had everything needed for our trip.
    Was the yacht well ventilated?
    yes. The cabins air conditioning was louder than we were used to while sleeping so I turned it off. However, with the cabin hatch closed, the cabin warmed enough that I turned the AC back on.

    The cabin head was close, but with the hatch slightly open, it was fresh and comfortable.
    Additional comments about the charter company and yacht you chartered?
    Festiva Sailing was an excellent choice. The Kaytlen Lee was a relatively new yacht and in excellent condition. We had no issues with the company or the boat.

    Captain Sam was OUTSTANDING! He was a wonderful host and guide for our trip.
    Chef Sebastian did an excellent job with food preparation and presentation.
    Both men made us feel like family by the time the cruise ended. I would HIGHLY recommend them to new cruisers.
    Cruising Area

    BVI was beautiful and provided us with nice variation in activities. For our first charter, we were extremely satisfied.
