Guest Testimonials

Hi Amanda, Loving the charter. The yacht is very nice. Clean, spacious, beautiful classical lines (we get tons of compliments from fellow boaters) . Manu and crew are very gracious, accommodating and truly go out of their way to make us comfortable. Alex (the chef) is world class. Food is magnificent. Presentation is similar to Michelin star restaurants and portions are so big we will not have to eat for weeks. Don't know how he does it in such a small galley. Islands are pretty and quaint. Seas have been cooperative (excepting lack of good sailing winds) except for 1 day. Regards from lovely Croatia.

Hello Sally, We had an incredible vacation aboard the Silver Fox, the yacht is a very capable and very comfortable for the distance we traveled every day, the accommodations in the fly bridge are worth mentioning, our favorite spot in the Silver Fox. The crew is very qualified for a Charter, they know perfectly how to treat guests, interacting with them and proposing ideas, places and marinas to stay. The reservations of our berths had no problem at all. Its worth recommending. We’ll be in touch with you soon to plan our next year Charter.

Hi Martha, Sorry for the delay! I have been catching up with work lately. Regarding the Wolf Two, Our stay was perfect. Everything was just great! The crew were really polite and made sure all our needs were satisfied. The food was excellent and they were all really prudent and discreet when we were on board. Also the places the Roberto took us were absolutely amazing and he made sure we did everything we wanted. Regarding the Yacht, it was truly comfortable and spacious. It was like or even better that the pictures you sent us. The air conditioning really surprised us since in other boats it was not as good as this one. MY WOLF TWO 18th – 25th of July – Sardinia

Hi Trina! Thank you so much for arranging such a wonderful vacation! The crew- Melissa and Francesco were professional people who made our trip unforgettable! We were impressed by Italian cuisine thanks to Francesco and impeccably clean and fresh environment thanks to Melissa! The weather was great, the water was warm, the scenery was beautiful! Italy is always a great idea no matter where you are!!!! Thanks again! Catamaran OMBRE BLU / August 1 – 8, / Amalfi Coast

Hi Martha, I’ve been meaning to contact you. Where to begin? Our trip was spectacular and honestly, exceeded my expectations in every way. We were welcomed with a champagne reception. AOIBH was beautiful, modern, spacious and absolutely spic and span clean. The water “toys” were great and certainly were used daily. Our crew was fabulous; Fabio was attentive, great with guidance and always interested in our opinions on the itinerary du jour. He selected some beautiful, local wines that we enjoyed every day. Lynda, our cook-good GOD-she is incredible. Our family is a family of utter “foodies”; we seek out amazing restaurants and cook a lot at home. Given my Italian father and upbringing, we especially love good, proper Italian food. Lynda’s cooking was outrageously good. Everything she made was outstanding. Her food was so amazing (I dare say, better than any restaurant we dined at while on the Amalfi Coast the week before-and we ate at some lovely restaurants) that we had no interest in getting off at any ports to have food in “town”. Rather, we ate every meal onboard. This truly added a special touch to an already lovely trip. She went out of her way to meet our few food allergies- her cooking was like a week of a 5 star dining experience. Fabulous! Gemma was lovely as well-always attentive and proactive in making sure we had everything we needed-setting beautiful tables at meal times, etc. The crew was a delight to have around-another nice touch to our trip. Sardinia and the nearby archipelago was just stunning. Weather and water temperatures…perfect. We travel a lot and are fortunate to have done some amazing trips. All wholeheartedly agreed that this experience was tied for first place on our list of favorite trips. We will certainly look to book again with this crew and boat (or LIR). The water life in the Caribbean is more vibrant than in the Med-so we may look at that locale. We consider ourselves so lucky to have found this boat, crew and locale in what was the 11th hour. Thank you for all of your assistance with putting it together. We absolutely loved everything. Please, if you would, send our thanks to the owner as well.

Trina: The Charter was excellent – the Best captain we have ever had and an excellent crew. The boat itself was very well suited to our needs, it was particularly good that all cabins were of a similar size, as you know often the 3rd and 4th cabins can be a little small the design of the boat meant they were all a good size.

HI Martha, Good Morning! We had an amazing, and unforgettable time onboard Easy Rider. Kevin, Amy, Maggie, Adam, and Trisha were all outstanding. There really isn’t one thing I could say we were missing. All of the equipment on board was in great condition and NEW. Food was outstanding. The boat was always clean and the crew was beyond accommodating. Kevin took us on an amazing fishing trip one day and we all had a blast. The crew was always eager to get us out and show us the cool spots around. They also put together an amazing set of photos and go-pro videos that we all took home on a flash drive. One of the best vacations my family and I have ever taken. We are already trying to see when we can do it again.

Hi Amanda, The boat was great. The staff were too. Marin in particular. He was super knowledgeable and we felt in good hands. I'd say that maybe a very slight comment is that a Croatian crew and cooking etc is always going to be a little more "Eastern European" than, say an Italian crew. This is not to say it was lacking, just a little different and perhaps requires a little more communication. Thanks for everything. Was really a wonderful holiday I'd love to do a boat trip again.

Feedback from Amanda’s charter (guest book) Gaetano, Carmen, Mai & Luiz – There aren’t words to describe the vacation you gave us on board the JACKI ONE! Every meal was 5 star, our glasses were never empty, the music was always playing – your energy was infectious. There are a lot of boats in these ports, but none have you as a crew – that is the best part about this boat – No one can compete with your level of service or attention to detail. We can’t thank you enough for everything you did, you’re an amazing crew. JACKIE ONE (Part 2) What an amazing time on JACKIE ONE. We were so impressed with the boat, the service and especially the food! Carmen is a true magician. We had so much fun and we felt at home immediately. I don’t think we could have even imagined a better time. Gaetano’s mantra of a 5 star hotel, restaurant and activities on board was truly lived up to. In other vacations we would search for restaurants all over, but on this trip we ate every meal on board. Mai and Luiz work very hard to keep us happy – they are amazing as well. Gaetano – you have put together an amazing crew!

Sally: It was a great holiday. The boat was fantastic. The result of someone really obsessing about producing the perfect boat with money no object. Clive was great, always calm and very professional. Gaby was fantastic, livewire Italian, great cook, great fun. Actually it was too comfortable, I rather missed the panic of a bareboat charter when the anchor drags at 2.00am. But not that much.

Amanda, We are back and settled in. The crew was absolutely fantastic. They continually went out of their way to accommodate us. I am so glad that we requested a chef. Alex, the chef, was an unbelievable cook. Each meal was better than the next. We could eat his food forever. He happened to be a quite colorful guy as well. Manu was a great sailor/ captain. Knew his yacht extremely well and you could tell he was in complete control of the waters and the surroundings. He continually made sure we were part of the itinerary planning and were fully informed about our present and future plans. The mate, Marinella, was a skilled sailor in her own right. She made sure we were well taken care of, our cabins were clean, laundry serviced (especially with my limited wardrobe), and we were always attended to with a smile.

Amanda, Tersane is even more beautiful than the pictures you sent me...everyone is thrilled. Quite an experience to gather 25 people coming from 4 different locations worldwide!!! This is one cruise to be remembered..and to do again. Tersane is fabulously comfortable and the crew as nice as can be! Thanks again for your patience and assistance ..you did a wonderful Job..once again !!! ..many many thanks M/S TERSANE / August / Turkey

Dear Amanda, Everything was just Great ! The crew 10/10. The boat 10/10 price vs condition. The itinerary 10/10. Service was beyond our expectations for sure

Reia - We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The crew was professional, pleasant, available and nice to be with. And the food was superlative: light, healthy, varied and delicious. Definitely gets our highest recommendation.

Sally, We had a fabulous week. Boat was great. Crew really awesome. We covered a lot of ground. Captain was wonderful with the kids and so relaxed. Konstantina was a wonderful cook. Really wonderful. So good we stayed on the boat for dinner almost every night. Catamaran IDEA / August 15 – 22 / Greece

Hi Trina, Thank you so much for setting up the trip on the EFI. Things were fantastic and my family thoroughly enjoyed themselves. You were right, the crew was awesome and the food unbelievable. I would highly recommend them to others.

Amazing, delightful, wonderful, boat and crew. This trip is truly a trip of a life for our family to be altogether at once. Thanks for making this all happen Martha, we want to do it again another year! Will send photos when I can. Sailing Yacht L’AQILA / August 23 – 30 / Greece to Turkey

Hi Amanda, Our vacation was everything we wanted and more. The crew was amazing and the location couldn't have been more perfect. Thank you so much for finding this boat for our vacation. We immediately came home and looked at options for our next trip. We will be in contact when the time comes :) thank you thank you thank you!!!!!

Martha, Our stay on Ombre Blu was fantastic. Mellissa and Francesco were super hosts and expert seamen all rolled into one. The facilities on the boat were wonderful… 2 of our party went diving. I swam more than I have in the last 20 years….. and feel better for it. Melissa arranged a mixture of marina berths and lying at anchor so that we sometimes would eat aboard and sometimes in the port. Ombre Blu was our first attempt at a cruising holiday…. It was just perfect….. Including the weather. We will certainly be doing it again. Both Mellissa and Francesco advised us of their preferred cruising area…. We need to start planning now. Please pass on a big thank you from all of us for a perfect week. Catamaran OMBRE BLU / AUG 21 – 21 / Italy

(Guest book comments, Josh’s charter) Once again we were impressed by the hospitality and professionalism of the crew! Perfect! PS – I have to go on a diet again! Fantastic time and no more lovely bays to discover, we have seen them all now… Charter on Aegean Shatz / August 3 – 28 / Greece

Alain, (Captain) Wanted to let you know we all arrived home safely and again wanted to THANK YOU and your fabulous crew for a wonderful week in paradise! You all opened your “home” to our family and made us feel so comfortable and welcome and we so appreciate all that you did to ensure we had truly a vacation we will never forget! You have a dedicated, passionate and caring crew and we will miss them! Stay safe!

Reia, Everything was perfect. We absolutely can recommend Mare Nostrum and its crew. The chef is brilliant. Thank you for the perfect service. Gulet MARE NOSTRUM / August / Turkey

Josh, The week on Moby Dick was simply great. The Catamaran, the crew, the food and the locations. All perfect. Thank you for all and hopefully we will be able to charter with you again in the future Catamaran MOBY DICK / August 23 – 30 / Corsica - Sardinia

Hi Amanda, Just getting around to your email, it was tough getting back to work as you can imagine. I will try to give you a brief description of the trip and the crew without getting long winded. The trip aboard the Nafisa,,,,, I can’t say enough about the crew and the Captain, they were just simply fantastic! As for the boat we knew what to expect going into this trip and that it was older boat, but the captain is doing a great job of bring her back to its original condition. For what it cost us compared to a newer $ 250,000 per week yacht, I think we got a great deal!
