Client Testimonials
What our clients say about their charter experience.
Trina: We returned Monday afternoon. The two weeks on board Navilux were simply superb. All as a result of the outstanding service, warmth, and kindness of the crew. Captain Luka found us marvellous secluded anchorages where we swam and enjoyed many meals before moving on to the next spot. Being the Split-Pula-Split itinerary, many of the passages were much longer than any compared to the Split-Dubrovnik-Split rotation. 100 miles one way vs 200 to Pula. Still, the towns we visited were pleasant (although we did not care for Zadar... too large, touristy, etc with no unique charm). Navilux, despite her age, is in very good nick. The Chef, Dominic, is excellent. He caters to all requests: we had a gluten-intolerant person aboard one week, grandkids who liked things simple for dinner, lunch... we had fresh lobster, scorpion fish, monkfish, shrimp both in salad and in pasta, duck breast, pasta w/truffles, risotto and for the 4th of July the crew surprised us with decoration of red/white/blue and flags on the outdoor dining area with burgers, ribs, beans and an American flag cake for dessert. The crew always has a ready smile and friendly greeting no matter what the situation. Service across all areas- rooms, bar service, meals, daily briefing on where to go and timing is without peer. Small laundry items are done once per week at the same time sheets are changed mid-week. Captain Luka has a drone which he uses to take pics during the voyage, which makes for great memories. If we do this again on Navilux, we will most likely limit ourselves to a Split-Split just touring the islands and small bays of that area, which Capt. Luka says we would enjoy. I and all of my family and friends believe Navilux is the perfect size and design ... no need to change. The weather these weeks was quite hot, as you no doubt knew, but aircon worked fine in cabins and on the occasions we had to dine indoors due to wasps swarming from the shore, making outside dining impossible. The new "toys" of sea bobs, jet skis, kayaks, paddle boards, snorkelling gear all got great use during the trip. In fact, the grandkids spent most of their time engaged with them as well as some fishing... only marginal success, but one grandson caught a fish after dinner on our last evening, so was quite chuffed to end the trip on that note. All of our friends and family gave their week 5 stars... I cannot imagine how this could be improved upon...
Simply top-notch personalized service: From the very beginning of the process matching a boat and location with our party size and desires Trina Howes of Charterworld was outstanding. She had personal experience & was familiar with various yachts enabling our choices both in Turkey and Croatia. I have used her and CharterWorld for 4 separate charters all of which were 5 stars... The process is easy, seamless and each step of the process is easily understood. Trina is available by email and phone during the entire process of investigation, choice and final selection as well as payments and preferences. Highly recommended.
Trina, as you might expect, everything on board was simply a delight. Captain Luca is great (he was first mate on our previous voyages). I did meet Captain Ante, as he was there when I visited the boat to check the location early Sunday morning, so I accompanied him to the new boat he is constructing (to be finished in 2 weeks). A motorboat 50m worthy of Monaco! Food under new chef Dominic is magic, so 2 weeks on board was definitely not a hardship. The vessel is in tip-top shape, looking brand new, so clearly well maintained over the winter months. Crew, as expected, were a complete delight, including Axsha, who was on our first charter. He is the most knowledgeable about wines and is truly the chief steward and humorist. So, all was simply wonderful.
Hi Trina, Navilux and her crew are absolutely wonderful! The meals were incredible, and we took advantage of all the water toys! Everyone had an amazing time!
Working with our charter broker, Trina Howes, was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Her knowledge, professionalism and responsiveness were exceptional. She made the entire charter planning process effortless and took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and matched us with the perfect yacht and crew. We cannot say enough wonderful things about the incredible crew who made our yacht charter such an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped aboard until the very last goodbye, they made us feel genuinely welcomed, cared for, and completely at home. Every member of the crew went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect- from exceptional meals and impeccable service to thoughtful surprises and personalized touches that made our trip feel truly special. Our overall experience was absolutely wonderful. We look forward to hopefully working together again on future adventures!
Good evening, Reia, I am back home in California, reminiscing about our wonderful Yacht experience in Croatia. From start to finish, never a missed beat. You were there for us. The whole experience was "Above & Beyond" my expectations. My background and career for 30-plus years were in the Hospitality Business, working for three luxury cruise lines. I know attention to detail when I see and can feel it. This was the experience we received from Captain Luc and his Staff of NUVILUX. In my book of travel experiences, NAVILUX is right up there at the top. I hope in the not-so-distant future we can cruise again and experience one of the other beautiful destinations the company has to offer: Greece, Italy and now the Caribbean. Wishing you continued success in your business and the very best to NAVILUX for an outstanding product.
