Client Testimonials
What our clients say about their charter experience.
An Amazing Experience: My company is VIP Yacht Charter Group where I offer Glatt Kosher Yacht charters. I transitioned from day to term charters and was looking for a company and broker that I could trust. I reached out to Trina and explained to here that I have a client that was looking to do a week Glatt Kosher charter in the South of France. I knew from our initial call that she was the right person to work with. Trina is extremely knowledgeable in the charter world. The Yacht she recommended was Zeemar a 100ft, 5 stateroom beauty, and there couldn't have been a better yacht and crew for this client. Trina went above and beyond to make sure that everything went perfectly from communicating with the client to Captain and even provisioner. She was always available to talk no matter what time it was. I am so grateful to Trina that this charter went way beyond the clients' expectations.
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!
Thank you so much for the most amazing 10 days. This trip was more than any of us could have imagined. We all felt at home the moment we stepped on board. The memories are unforgettable. You all have been absolute angels. Thank you for making my birthday unforgettable. I truly hope to be back again!
Reia, the trip was awesome, and the crew was the best we have ever had for sure. Super clean and tidy boat all the time, very very stable, so very little rocking. All male crew (most have been together for a long time), Okan the butler is basically the treasure of it all. He has been with the company since he was 14 years old, and his wife works for the company. He is the only one that speaks fluent English and was absolutely fabulous. There are tons of Gulets so getting the right one was so important. The Chef was literally 5 star—he has been there since 2010. The best food we have ever had truly unreal. Presentation amazing… all super fresh. They had all the drinks and wines we requested on pref sheet. They physically lugged my Dad all over the boat and never once complained and never ever hesitated to help. Water sports guys were awesome. Snorkeling gear for adults and kids was in perfect shape (my son got a sinus infection so could not dive but they had a private tour arranged). They have tubes and a big water sofa, two tenders, a jet ski, kayaks and paddleboards. They readily take stuff on and off the boat whenever you want them to and all the way until 7-7:30 we would be in the water. Laundry was helpful. They do three main itineraries. The one we did is really about enjoying the water and cruising. There is one place to see, but it is not probably like Greece or Croatia where people are getting off and sightseeing. They do one itinerary which is two or three nearby Greek islands which do have sightseeing, but they told me it ups the price of the charter a lot. They also do one way down on the Lycean coast. I would love to go back. They have no white space in their calendar. When we left they picked up an American woman from NYC who has rented for two weeks for 5 years. They are 90% repeat guests, and they told me we were 1 of 4 new charters this week. There is a British couple who has reserved their time in September for the next three years. They already have 8 weeks of the summer booked next year. So I gather this is a popular crew and chef. For my taste July and August would be WAY too hot. They said September everyone loves but they charter all through October. Let me know if any other info would be helpful. I guess one final thought is if you had two families the way the boat is split is ideal. Three rooms in the bow with a master and three rooms in the stern with a master so very separated. Okay thanks again.
I wanted you to know how great the entire experience was. Both boats, their captains and the crews exceeded all my expectations. The two boats worked beautifully in tandem, and every member of my family said it was the best vacation they’d ever had. The Acapella is an extraordinary yacht, designed with every possible luxury and convenience you can imagine. The yacht was only surpassed by the quality and performance of the captain and the crew. I will unhesitatingly recommend it to all my friends. From beginning to end, the trip has been a seamless joy. You were instrumental in making it happen and I cannot thank you enough. It’s going to be impossible for any future family vacation to live up to this one. Warm regards, S.G.
It was a fantastic trip. Thanks for all your help in organizing. The boat and the crew are the best. I would highly recommend to anyone thinking about a charter. An experience we will no doubt repeat again at some point!!
