Andiamo Tutti

Rochi & Juan,
4/1 – 4/8/25
Thank you so much for helping make this the best vacation ever!! You are a great couple and it was so wonderful getting to know you both. The food and hospitality were five-star! My favorite day was getting to go to the Baths with you coming along with us. We would definitely do this experience again. If we do, the next crew will have very big shoes to fill. Best wishes to you both for your future endeavors, and may you be blessed with many children. You will be awesome parents!

Rochi & Juan,

We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We had the best time, best food, and best crew. As the organizer of this trip, you did not disappoint and helped to make this a once-in-a-lifetime trip as I promised it would be to our gang. You were amazing, and it was nice to hear about your lives, plans, and goals. Good luck in your future together; you are a great team. We will miss you the most in the BVI.
Chris & Carrie

Juan & Rochi,
4/1 – 4/8/25

What can we say? This trip has far exceeded our expectations! From the moment we set foot on the Andiamo to our last breakfast, we have so many memories. Every meal was delicious, and every excursion that we went on was far beyond what we expected. Juan taking us around in the dinghy to fulfill our daily adventures was wonderful. All your attention to our every need was met with courtesy and smiles. My heart is full; Darren and I have been able to relax and recharge. We wish you both all the best in your future with your careers on land and your family.
Darren & Martha

Queridos Rochi & Juan:
Siempre disfrutamos navegar con familia y amigos. Sin crew. Jamás me imaginé que podríamos cambiar de idea. Pero en realidad, ustedes se sintieron como familia y amigos. Nos cambiaron toda la experiencia de navegar; disfrutamos muchísimo ser “guests” y no estar a cargo del resto. Son unos genios totales. No hay palabras para contarles lo que disfrutamos cada detalle, cada mimo que nos hicieron. Nos sentimos cuidados, queridos, mimados e importantes. Los adoramos.
¡Nos vemos pronto!
Silvie & Gerry

Dear Juan & Rochi,

This will forever be our favorite family trip! You both made this such a special and unique adventure for us, and we can’t imagine anything ever beating this. Rochi, your cooking was really some of the best we’ve ever had! Every single thing you made for us (including your Painkillers and banana drinks) was incredible! Cameron is our “picky” eater, and the fact that she not only ate everything you made but still says your food was her favorite part of the week says so much!

Juan, your attentiveness to our children was truly special. They had such a blast, multiple times a day, with all of the water activities! Snorkeling, the Seabob, tubing, e-foiling, paddleboarding… never a dull moment for anyone! You sparked a big interest in boats for Colin, and we appreciate how much time you gave him to test out his captain skills. You also created the perfect route for sailing and daily agendas that were not only adventure-filled but always left time for relaxing and just enjoying the serene life of being on the water with the most magical scenery.

You both were the perfect team, with such calm and peaceful demeanors, yet kept everything so organized and fun. We cannot thank you enough for giving us the most incredible experience that we will surely do again soon! And hopefully it’s with you! We will miss you guys and remember you always.

Sincerely,
The Hoglunds (Matt, Katie, Colin & Cameron) ❤️

Juan and Rochi,

You two are the best hosts ever! Your teamwork, professionalism, and attention to detail are superb. You made our trip even better than we expected – thank you! Where to start… Rochi’s meals were excellent – wow. We were so spoiled. Every single thing – breakfasts, snacks, the snack box, lunches, happy hours, dinners, desserts, drinks, and our big birthday celebration – was complete with decorations and homemade key lime pie.

Captain Juan’s skills (and patience) navigating us to all the destinations we wanted to visit in the BVIs were greatly appreciated. You constantly helped us with the paddleboards, Seabob, and dinghy trips. And did we mention taking John out kiteboarding and foiling? Thank you! We are very thankful for your hospitality, kindness, and can-do attitude. We had so much fun!!! Where should we all go next??? Muchas gracias!

P.S. You are always welcome to visit us (and the orcas) in Washington State.
P.P.S. An extra thank you for keeping us – and all of our stuff – organized all week!
Kristen & John Dietz ❤️

Juan & Rochi! Thank you for such a perfect week enjoying the BVIs! We loved all the beautiful and creative meals and cocktails, which were always served with perfect precision! We especially appreciate your flexibility and creative approach to our “wish list” and how you assembled daily itineraries that allowed us to experience everything on our list… and more! Loved experiencing Saba Rock, The Bitter End Yacht Club, Cooper Island… and so many swim and snorkeling spots! You are always welcome in Seattle – I will show you a great time!
Stirling & Tamara❤️

Juan and Rochi,
Thank you both for making our week-long adventure through the BVI on Andiamo an unforgettable experience! From the moment we boarded, we felt like cherished guests. You created an atmosphere of warmth, comfort, and gracious hospitality. We enjoyed the water sports – Seabobs, paddleboarding, snorkeling, foiling… and the fun shore excursions to see many gorgeous beaches and islands. Highlights for us were Saba Rock, BEYC, Eustacia, Swan Bay, and Soggy Dollar Bar, just to name a few! The delicious and beautifully presented meals were a work of art! Your attention to detail was evident in everything, including the care you showed when Barce broke his toe – retrieving ice and anti-inflammatories right away, making sure he was comfortable and well taken care of.

We felt truly looked after. The daily happy hour treats, appetizers, and cocktails were a lovely transition from our sun-drenched days to beautiful sunsets and stargazing. Your gracious hospitality allowed us to relax, unwind, and thoughtfully immerse ourselves in the joy and beauty of our surroundings. We will treasure our memories of this magical time forever and are so thankful for everything you did to make our trip so magical and extraordinary! Tienen tu casa en Seattle! You are an amazing team!

P.S. A highlight of our trip was getting to know each of you a little better and hearing about your careers, adventures, and plans for the future. I wish you both the best of good fortune and success in your future.

Best regards,
Bruce & Julia ❤️

Juan & Rochi – Thank you for an amazing week in the BVI’s! 🤝
Your wonderful hospitality and attention to details were much appreciated.
We loved everything about the trip including the food and overnight locations.
You found new coves / beaches for us to explore while remaining very flexible when we needed to modify the itinerary.

Thank you Rochi and Juan for a wonderful week on Andiamo. It was a perfect vacation. Thank you for taking such good care of us, making such wonderful meals, and finding great places to swim. And I loved the coconut rum birthday cake! What a special surprise! Thank you!!!

In addition to above, thanks for watching out for our safety while we swam and making us feel very welcome on the boat. We had a fantastic week!!❤️

AND IT WAS SUCH A JOY TO WATCH THE TWO OF YOU TOGETHER. YOUR ATTENTIVENESS & THE POSITIVE ATTITUDE BOTH TO ALL OF US AND TO EACH OTHER WAS TRULY INSPIRING. THANKS FOR ALL OF IT – AND FOR LETTING ME RAMBLE ABOUT GEOLOGY AND LIFE OH – AND FOR LETTING ME CATCH THE MOORING BALL WITH YOU ROCHI! APPRECIATED THE “PAIN KILLERS” WITHOUT ALCOHOL😎. I’LL ALWAYS COUNT YOU BOTH AS FRIENDS! HOPE GINNY & I & THE REST OF US CAN SAIL WITH YOU AGAIN SOMEDAY. – GARY

Dear Juan and Rochi,

Thank you so much for giving us an unforgettable experience. We were not sure what to expect, but you made us feel at home. The food, drinks, conversations, and hospitality were all very much appreciated. 😁

We could go on and on about how much we ALL enjoyed this trip (except maybe the wind!).
You are an amazing couple, and we wish you the best wherever you end up.
We will definitely recommend this trip to everyone!!!

Thank you!!! ❤️

Dear Juan and Rochi,

What a great team the two of you are! You made a remarkable experience better than we could ever have imagined!😍 From the delicious food and awesome “Painkillers” to sailing lessons and cleaning up all of Mark’s wine spills—overall, an unbelievably great team!!!

Rochi, your cooking is amazing, especially with Wendy’s dietary restrictions. The pressure is on for Scott! Every meal was followed by “This isn’t how Rochi would’ve made it!” The Key lime birthday cake you made for Kim was so very delicious! 🍰

Rochi and Juan made a 50th birthday celebration and a surprise wedding engagement 💍👰‍♀️ better than we could have ever imagined. Your quick thinking to get everyone on the beach with champagne and the pizza in hand before the engagement and sunset was priceless. You are amazing people, and we truly consider you friends after “putting up with all of us this week!”

We truly hope you enjoyed spending this week with us as much as we did with the two of you. You are “stuck” with us in the future as we plan to do this trip annually!!! We could never imagine being on another boat without you…

Thank you so much for an experience that will never be forgotten!

P.S. Mark will continue to take Juan foiling tips via YouTube videos LOL —”FINAL, FINAL”!!!

Thank you!!! ❤️

Your friends from Michigan!!!

Dear Juan and Rochi,

Thank you for making our family vacation a truly unforgettable one! You made us feel welcome and relaxed aboard Andiamo. Every meal was carefully planned and prepared to meet everyone’s needs. A culinary delight! The BBQs and afternoon snacks were a treat.

We loved how you planned every day with us in the morning and made changes when necessary to give us the best experiences possible. Your flexibility and willingness to adapt in the moment made everyone enjoy the day and evening.

*What truly stood out the most was the way you both worked on this charter as a couple and with such professionalism.*

You brought the charter experience to a different level for us. Your attention to detail in every part of the boat was so impressive! From the beautiful set table for every delicious, healthy meal, to the care and cleanliness of the boat, and the lovely inspirational cards on our freshly made beds, you made each day on board special. You made everyone feel super comfortable, relaxed, and happy.

We will always remember our time aboard Andiamo with you both as a special week in paradise.

Thank you!!! ❤️

Dear Rochi & Juan,

Thank you so so much for the *most wonderful New Year’s week aboard Andiamo!* You are such unbelievably warm, welcoming & attentive hosts. You made all of our wishes come true – beautiful, absolutely delicious and healthy meals plus every opportunity to be in the water. From multiple foiling sessions with Juan’s tips & encouragement, to snorkeling with rays & turtles, paddle boarding, zipping around on the sea bob, & tubing – we truly enjoyed ourselves!

Your thoughtful selection of harbors (some we hadn’t been to before) set such a nicely relaxed pace giving us plenty of time to read, rest, draw & play card games (Thanks for joining and beating us in 21!). Another thing we really enjoyed was your teamwork as a professional couple; it elevated this charter to another level *(our best yet!)* and will certainly serve you both so well in your future together. We had an amazing time with you on Andiamo.

Thank you!!!
