We just returned home from an amazing week with Connor and Ada! From the second we stepped on board, they made us feel right at home.

Their hospitality was top-notch! Connor is an amazing captain and host. We all really enjoyed every story he had to tell and we learned so much from him every day!
And Ada, blew us away with every single meal she prepared for us!

And I can honestly say, I have never cried, leaving a vacation until this one.

We all miss them already and cannot wait to go back! And yes, we will be going back very soon! 🙂

Our week aboard our charter was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we stepped on board, Connor and Ada made us feel welcome, relaxed, and completely taken care of.

Connor struck the perfect balance between professionalism and fun. His knowledge of the BVI, attention to safety, and ability to tailor each day to our group’s interests made the entire trip feel effortless. Every anchorage, beach, and adventure seemed perfectly chosen.

Ada was absolutely incredible. Every meal was beautifully prepared, fresh, creative, and delicious. She consistently exceeded our expectations, and each meal became a highlight of the day. It’s hard to believe the quality and variety she was able to create from a yacht galley.

Together, Connor and Ada made an amazing team. Their warmth, hospitality, and attention to detail transformed an already beautiful vacation into a truly unforgettable experience. The yacht was immaculate, the service was exceptional, and every day brought new memories that we’ll be talking about for years.

If you’re considering a charter in the BVI, stop looking and book an &Beyond Yacht Charters yacht. We couldn’t imagine a better crew or a better experience. Thank you, Connor and Ada, for giving us the trip of a lifetime—we can’t wait to sail with you again!

Quite literally the best vacation ever!
Our charter was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Connor and Ada were hands down the best crew ever; they went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable.
Their hospitality, professionalism, and fun personalities made every day amazing. The food was amazing, better than any restaurant we ate at! We couldn’t have asked for a better crew or a better trip.
Highly recommend!

Comment on the cleanliness of SAIL AWAY:
The crew kept our cabins spotless and prepared.
Our beds were made and our bathrooms cleaned every morning while we ate breakfast. Main
saloon was vacuumed and mopped every evening after dinner.
Comment on the congeniality of your Captain and crew: Our crew was very friendly from our first FaceTime meeting before we traveled to Tortola to our final drop-off. Captain Conner, Chef Ada and Nicole were so friendly. They all doted on our 3-year-old grandson and Silas (our grandson) nicknamed the Captain, “Silly Conner”.

Comment on the service of your Captain and crew:
The service was wonderful the entire week. It is not easy serving 11 people ages 3 to 70, 2 picky eaters; the captain and crew made it seem
effortless. This is our third charter we have worked with you to secure. All our crews have been great; this crew is our favorite so far. Here are just a couple of examples. I am an early riser in the morning, typically 4:30 am to 5 am. Nicole got up every morning at 5 am to make me coffee.
When I commented that I would be happy to push the button on the coffee maker and pour my
own cup, Nicole would have none of that. It was served to me graciously. They were willing to
change-up our pick-up and drop-off locations because our accommodations for the day before
and day after the cruise was on the west end of Tortola.

Comment on the fun aspect of your Captain and crew:
They were the best! Wake boarding,
tubing, paddleboards, floating toys. They even had a big floating ring that worked like a child
swimming pool for our 3-year-old. Capt. Conner and Ada arranged our scuba diving with DIVE
BVI which is a great dive operation in the BVIs with locations on Virgin Gorda and Scrub Island.
They even played games with Silas and with the adults after Silas went to bed. Conner gave us abriefing every morning after breakfast using a map which was given to us at the end of the
charter. Conner quizzed us on what he had shared with us throughout the charter, where we
anchored on previous days, tidbits he had shared with us on the history of the islands – it was
very fun.

Comment on the expertise of your Captain and crew:
Our crew was very professional and promoted safety through our cruise. Moorings and anchoring setup were accomplished with expertise. Conner did a mechanical check on the boat systems each morning.

Comment on the quality of your meals:
All our meals were excellently prepared, and the quality was very high. We were not an easy group with one vegetarian, 2 adult picky eaters and a 3-year-old. Chef Ada rose to each meal. Filet mignon, salmon, sea bass, New York Strip, fresh sourdough bread, wonderful desserts and a birthday cake for Silas and me, both our birthdays were in May. Breakfasts were typically yogurt, eggs, fruit by our request.

Comment on the presentation of your meals:
Beautifully presented with a completely different theme each night. Our birthday dinner and our final “pirate night” dinner were the favorites of Silas.

Would you charter this yacht again? (Circle one) YES

We were spoiled rotten by the crew of Sail Away and would love to charter with that crew again.

For my friends, this opened their eyes to a new world. We had the best time, not a single complaint! The interior was clean, and I was impressed with how she showed being 12 years old.

Connor is a fantastic captain, calm, funny, and we loved his morning briefings. Truly a highlight for us every day.

Ada is an excellent chef, and my friends were blown away with every meal. We loved her portion size and that we didn’t feel like we were weighed down by food.

Even though Nicole is in her first season, it didn’t show. She would get us things before we had to ask, a true skill, and very hard worker.

Happy to be a reference this program/crew any day. Thanks again for assisting me on this trip of a lifetime.

Five days adrift in turquoise dreams,
Where sunlight danced in silver streams,
Aboard Sail Away we laughed and swayed,
In the magic that the crew all made.

Each morning started with Connor’s grin,
Gathering us all to happily begin,
With charts, our plans, the route ahead,
And jokes that left us laughing instead.

Captain Connor at the helm so steady,
Calm and confident, always ready,
Guiding us through the islands bright,
By sapphire day and starlit night.

Chef Ada turned each meal to art,
A masterpiece from hands and heart,
And best of all, we never had to choose,
No menus, no stress, no endless reviews.

Each dish appeared, somehow more divine,
Perfectly timed with sunset and wine,
From breakfast spreads to dinners by sea,
Every bite felt like luxury.

And Nicole, with grace in every way,
Brought warmth and joy to every day,
Her cocktails crafted with effortless flair,
Always appearing just when needed there.

A frozen drink beneath the sun’s warm glow,
An evening toast as soft winds blow,
Always smiling, thoughtful too,
The kind of soul that stays with you.

We came to celebrate forty years,
With our friends, loud laughs, and happy tears,
A milestone marked by sea and sky,
With island sunsets drifting by.

These were the days we’ll talk about,
The kind that leave no room for doubt,
That life is best when shared this way,
With hearts wide open on Sail Away.

Together with our cherished friends,
We wished these perfect days wouldn’t end,
The BVI wrapped us in its glow,
With gentle winds and sunsets slow.

So here’s to memories we now keep,
Of laughter loud and waters deep,
And to this crew beyond compare,
Who filled our hearts while sailing there.

If I could rate more than 5-stars on this review, I would.

My family and I had an amazing time during our charter, and it is all thanks to the crew and the wonderful, positive vibe they brought. They created such a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere that really made us feel well taken care of for the entire time we were on the boat. We laughed a ton and the crew was just as fun-loving as we were. Their anticipation for our needs was impressive; they totally surprised us with the activities and themes for dinner!

Additionally, the food was its own 5-star rating! The creativity and attention paid to each dish was truly met. We never ate the same meal twice, and our chef was able to create unique dishes that I would expect to order at a restaurant.

Lastly, the overall booking experience was seamless, and our booking agent was incredibly patient with us and the changes/ questions we kept tossing their way. They provided honest feedback on the concerns presented, and it is obvious as to why they are such professionals.

I honestly cannot say it enough – book SAIL AWAY with Connor, Ada and Nicole for your next charter experience! You will not regret it!

Kristina D

I cannot even begin to describe how wonderful of a time we all had on the Sail Away with Captain Connor, Chef Ada and Stewardess/Bartender/Jack-of-all-trades Nicole!

Each and every detail – from itinerary, meal program, drinks, cleanliness and anticipation of our every need – was perfect. We had so much fun with them. More than a crew they felt like our friends! The way they took care of us was seamless, it felt like they were reading our minds.

What stood out especially to me was the birthday party they held for my friend and I on the last night. We felt so special and celebrated and couldn’t imagine a better way to start off this next year of life! And THE CAKE!!!! Best I’ve ever had. Nicole makes a mean martini too, better than the ones I’ve had in NYC.

Missing the Sail Away and everything about this one in a million experience. Run, don’t walk, to book with this team!!!!

WOW! We just returned from a 5 day charter on SAIL AWAY, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about the entire experience. From start to finish, everything was absolutely incredible.
The crew went above and beyond in every possible way. They were attentive, kind, and truly made us feel at home the entire trip. Every detail was taken care of seamlessly, allowing our family to fully relax and enjoy each others company. The food was outstanding, the itinerary was perfectly curated, and the level of service exceeded all expectations. What really stood out was how genuine and thoughtful the staff were. They didn’t just do their jobs, they created an unforgettable experience for our family that we’ll be talking about for years to come. If you’re considering a charter, don’t hesitate, this was beyond a 5-star experience in every sense. We’re already dreaming about our next trip back!

Our vacation was truly a five-star experience from start to finish. The perfect mix of fun and relaxing, with a crew that made the entire trip unforgettable.

Captain Connor was extremely passionate and knowledgeable— our itinerary was perfect. With him steering the ship (quite literally), the group was able to fully relax and just enjoy each moment together.

Nicole was nothing short of incredible. She made amazing drinks and was always so attentive, making sure everyone was comfortable and having a great time. She also added thoughtful touches along the way that made the trip feel really special. We joked that she was reading our minds as days went on and she anticipated our needs- she’s just that good.

Ada’s cooking was outstanding. Every meal was fresh, delicious, and something we genuinely looked forward to each day. It’s hard to believe the level of food she was able to create on a boat—it was that good. The fruit platters and baked goods were next level.

Overall, the team went above and beyond in every way. They created such a welcoming, easygoing atmosphere while still delivering an exceptional experience. It was truly a dream vacation!!

We have such an amazing time on Sail Away!
The crew was amazing and truly made it feel like home away from home! I will definitely be doing this again!!

Your overall star rating?: 5

How would you describe your yacht? Was the yacht comfortable and clean? Well ventilated? Sufficient Shade? Sufficient Space to relax?
Truly exceptional on all fronts. Clean, extremely comfortable. plenty of room to relax.

How would you describe your crew? Were they courteous? Helpful? Friendly? Attentive? Knowledgeable? Accompanied you on your activities/land excursions? Wore uniforms and acted professionally?
All of the above, yes. The captain and crew were truly amazing. We owned a Lagoon 450 ourselves, and my husband has a master’s license sailing. He was very impressed with our captain Connor’s experience and expertise – quite an accomplishment at a young age. And Ada, our chef, truly made the best food we have ever tasted. Every single meal was outstanding. And Nicole, our stew, was fantastic – helpful in every way. All three were as close to perfect as you can get.

Was the food great and well presented? Did the menus meet your expectations? Did your crew pay attention to your preference sheets?
Yes! The food was truly gourmet fare, and they responded to every preference we mentioned. We were blown away!

How did you find the pace and the itinerary of your charter?
It was just right. They had to meet a wide range of preferences, from ages 2 to 75, some wanting bars and action, others wanting peaceful time in nature. They somehow did it all, which was no small feat!

Additional comments about the yacht and the crew?
This crew was specifically recommended by our friends who did a similar trip with Connor and Ada. I wasn’t sure they could live up to all the wonderful things our friends had said, but they went above and beyond it. I’m sure you guys know what an asset this particular crew is to your business – they are fantastic, hard working, friendly, and talented at what they do.

Was it easy to travel to and from your yacht?
Yes

Did you like the area you chartered in?
Yes

In the future, would you consider : Follow the crew onto another yacht, Sail a different destination Any additional thoughts about your charter experience?:
Thrilled to have this exceed expectations.
Connor, Ada & Nicole are the best of the best.

Delicious food from Ada and had fun playing games with bestie Nicole. Conner was very cool to fish and go tubing with.
Nathan (Age 9)

We just returned from an incredible week-long crewed catamaran charter in the US/British Virgin Islands, and we can’t say enough about the crew. From the moment we stepped on board, Captain Connor, Ada and Nicole set the tone for what would be one of the most relaxing and enjoyable vacations we’ve ever had.
The professionalism was immediately apparent.
If you’re considering a crewed charter in the VI, choose one with a team like this—you won’t regret it. They turned a great trip into an unforgettable one. Highly recommend!
Matt & Danielle

Icole, Ada, Onner are the best they fed and played with ume and made me safe.
Penelope (age 2)

Connor, Ada, and Nicole were incredible hosts on Sail Away.
I cannot rave about them enough. The trip through the BVIs was beautiful, and the crew made sure we were comfortable and having fun every step of the way. The food was out of this world, the boat was gorgeous and comfortable, and we had the perfect mix of activities and chill time.
I will miss Connor, Ada, and Nicole so much! Not just because of the delicious food, cocktails, and perfectly planned itinerary, but because they’re also the best people to be around!
Thank you all so much for such a memorable trip.

Dear Captain Connor, Ada and Nicole,

We could not have imagined a better captain, chef and stew for this trip. You planned for everyone’s likes and activity levels, and we ALL enjoyed this incredible tour of the BVIs.
From age 75 down to 2 yrs old, a fantastic time was had by all. We will never forget you!!

Come visit each and every one of us in the future, please.

A million thanks!

Much love,

To the Sail Away crew,

Thank you so much for the amazing week sailing around the BVIs.
The food was an absolute highlight (thank you Ada!).
The drinks were spectacular — mangolada, piña colada, painkillers. Thank you Nicole for keeping us hydrated!
And to our captain Connor, thank you for the best tour of the BVIs in the world 🙂

From end to end, this was one of the best family trips we could have imagined and we are so appreciative of all you did for us.

Simply fabulous! ♥

Thank you!
We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise through the BVI. Sail Away is incredible, the food was delicious (Ada is a gifted chef) and the cocktails were amazing (Nicole is an outstanding host).

We are extremely grateful for Captain Connor’s knowledge, positive attitude, hard work and commitment to making this an unforgettable experience.
From the moment we boarded, he did a fantastic job guiding us, answering our questions and always being helpful and engaged. Another aspect of our cruise that went beyond expectations was the food & service.

Everything was appealing and beautifully presented. &Beyond Yacht Charters is fortunate to have such a talented crew. The attentive service you provided is appreciated and we could not be happier with the outcome!

Thank you again for making our experience so unique and memorable.

We have been on several catamarans, and our crew was perfection in every way!!

Connor, Adamaris, and Nicole worked so hard, with many smiles and fun, to make this cruise the best ever!!
Connor was so informative and never seemed bothered by our questions while taking us to beautiful islands in the BVI.
Adamaris is an awesome chef! The dinners and all meals were beautifully plated and SO delicious!
Nicole! The sweetest 3rd that served us so well—from awesome cocktails to making our beds and anticipating our every need—she’s the best ever!!

We would love to have them as our crew on every future cruise!! Thank you all!🩷🩷🩷

Captain Connor, Chef Ada and Nicole on the Sail Away are the most attentive, kind and accommodating crew.
The itinerary was flexible and fun, the food was high class, the boat was clean and our every need was met.
The crew worked together well and seemed to have a good level of camaraderie, which makes the vibe easy and relaxed. I have some dietary restrictions and they were easily met by Ada.
Connor is knowledgeable about the area and Nicole sets the scene and makes the drinks (among other things). This was my first catamaran charter and I will be spoiled by this experience
Marie K.

This was our first time on a catamaran cruise.

We sailed on the ‘Sail Away’ and I must say, it totally exceeded all of my expectations. Our crew (Conner, Ada and Nicole) was amazing!
The food was great….both in presentation and in taste.
Nicole was always so eager to give us whatever we needed at all times!
Conner was so knowledgeable and took us to all the most beautiful places in BVI. Our cabins were always clean and comfortable.
The crew was also fun to spend time with; all the while doing their job professionally and safely. We had an amazing time!
Thank you!!!
Mary P.

This was our first all inclusive catamaran cruise. This will be an experience we will never forget. This 3 person crew is just amazing, from Captain Conner, First Mate Nichole and Chef Ada.
This is a vacation we will never forget.
The personal touches really made a difference.
Pat P.

We chartered on the “Sail Away” with Captain Connor, Ada, and Nicole in Feb of 2026.

Simply amazing. The crew was polite and courteous. They seemed to read our minds with what we wanted or needed next for drinks, snacks, activities, etc. The food was 5-star restaurant level stuff and I still can’t figure out how Ada prepared the meals we ate onboard. They weren’t just delicious, they were works of art. They took us to the best possible locations in the BVIs and we had the best vacating ever!

Highly, highly, highly recommend this crew and this catamaran.
Ryan K.

Best trip ever. Connor,Ada,and Nicole were great .
Great food, service, scenery, and just fun to spend time with .
They took care of everything and full of knowledge of the islands.
I hate to leave as they had become part of our family .
Will miss them and already looking forward to returning soon.If you get the chance, book with this group .
You won’t regret it .
Drew J.

We had an amazing week with the crew of Sail Away. The crew was so personable we felt as though we were best friends by the end of our week.

Connor kept us informed of where we were and where we were going through fun daily briefings. His knowledge of the BVI’s was incredible and he was always ready to share that knowledge with us.

Ada was a fantastic cook as every meal was five star quality. Loved the way she gave a short description of each meal prior to us eating them.

Lastly Nicole kept us laughing all week with her fun, witty personality. We loved the drinks she made for us all week.
I would highly recommend this crew if you ever come to the BVI. They’re the best.
Danny M.

To the finest crew we ever did see,
Who showed awesome sites of the Caribbean Sea.
We had our nights and some pirates’ delight,
Then glorious drinks rocked the Sail Sway at night.

Captain Connor and Nicole “rocked the boat” and kept us afloat for the adventure of a lifetime. There’s not enough words to describe such a wonderful trip and the many thanks we convey to you!

We had a fabulous week aboard Sail Away with Connor, Ada, and Nicole. It was our 4th sailing trip in the BVI’s and although all were great -this one was the best so far!

From start to finish, it was a true vacation in every sense of the word. The food was wonderful, the cocktails were fabulous, and the attention to detail was unmatched- whether we were enjoying the water toys, having cocktails, playing games, or having a meal.
Every moment felt thoughtfully planned and completely effortless for us as guests. We enjoyed getting to know each member of the crew and feel so lucky to have made new friends along the way.
This trip was exceptional, and we can’t recommend this crew enough!
Thanks again!
Crystal B.

What an absolute blessing you three are! You have been gifted with something not many have, the ability to create magic!

I cannot say enough great things about this trip. What an absolute blast of a trip!!!

Good luck to you all on your new boat & future endeavors!

Nicole, we wish you the best in your new role on the boat & we are thrilled we were your first!

Would absolutely charter with yall again!
Come visit us in Texas for some Texas fun & activities.

Much love & happy sailing!!!

Bryan & Liz

We had the most incredible 6-day sailing trip through the BVIs! Captain Connor, Chef Ada, and Crew Member Nicole were absolutely exceptional. They were fun, attentive, and made sure every detail was perfect — from navigating the islands to accommodating food allergies with care. Ada’s meals were amazing, and the catamaran was kept spotless the entire time.

Our itinerary was fantastic: Tortola, Peter Island, The Indians, Norman Island, Jost Van Dyke, Sandy Spit, Guana Island, Marina Cay, Anegada, and Virgin Gorda. We snorkeled beautiful reefs, visited iconic beach bars, explored stunning beaches, and enjoyed unforgettable sunsets every night.

With 9 of us onboard, the crew made everything seamless and so much fun. Truly a trip of a lifetime — and we absolutely hope to sail with them again on our next adventure. Highly, highly recommend!

Jennifer M.

This was our first charter ever. Connor and Ada were amazing. They made our first charter the absolute best. The food was out of this world! We couldn’t have asked for better crew!! Thanks for the memories🤗
Alicia M

The most amazing trip that we’ve ever been on. Connor and Ada were a perfect fit for our crazy party of people. Showed us all the spots we asked to see and a lot more that we didn’t know about. Ada was an amazing chef. From breakfast through dinner she nailed it. We will hopefully see them in the future
Thank you both
Mario and Alicia

Capt Connor and Ada are amazing. They made us feel right at home. Ada is a remarkable chef, everything was Michelin star worthy and “Nick and kids” approved. Conner introduced us to some amazing locations around the BVIs. We got so lucky to have found them and hope to cross their paths again.

We just returned from the most AMAZING charter! Captain Connor and Chef Ada went above and beyond each and every day to make sure we had the best time!! They listened to what we wanted to do and what kind of food we liked and they delivered! We were excited each morning to see what the day would bring. It always started off with a delicious breakfast from Ada and our chart “lesson”, lol, from Connor! We enjoyed every place they took us to as well as Capt. Connor’s drink of the day! I could go on and on because it really was that WONDERFUL! We really feel like we have new lifetime friends with Connor and Ada and we hope to return someday!!!
Shelly and Scott

Thank you for taking us around the USVI and BVI. We really enjoyed our stay. We learned so much about this part of the Caribbean. We enjoyed a great time with our good friends aboard your yacht. We were well taken care of with exceptional food and service. The two of you are always welcome to stay with us in Texas.
Cheers
Eddie and Dondrea

Thank you so much for the wonderful snorkeling spots and the lovely anchorages every night. We really appreciate your knowledge and experience on the water. You make everyone feel so comfortable and you made our week a memory of a lifetime.

Ada, we couldn’t have asked for better meals everyday. You truly go over the top with your food prep and lovely presentation.
Thank you for a fantastic week.

I’ve just returned from a week-long trip aboard with a great group of friends.
Connor and Ada were incredible hosts; you know it’s a great trip when you’re sad to leave because you feel like the hosts have become your friends, not to mention the incredible food, service, and all of the amazing places we got to visit.
The yacht was spacious and comfortable.
We look forward to returning again!
Krysta Oehm

Ada and Connor
What a wonderful trip and adventure for the “old” folks on the trip. Your patience and kindness were a gift to us.
Transfers to and from the dinghy and growing sea legs kept us on the go.
Ada, the cooking was delicious and interesting – three squares on a rocking boat – a new experience!
Thanks Connor for all your sailing expertise and interesting history. if you ever need a break from the sea head to our wheat farm in Eastern, Washington.
You guys are living the life.
Greg and Julie

Thanks to all you for making our week in the USVI and BVI a very wonderful experience. The way you took us around the islands, fed us and kept us comfortable on the boat was exceptional.

The dishes that Leann prepared were all delicious and we re grateful that she catered to all our dietary requests.

Rebecca’s attention to detail such as what each of us liked in our daily routine was amazing.

Heiko took us to nice snorkeling sites and anchored in beautiful secluded bays with perfect sunsets. he had information about the places we were visiting. He handles the boat very well and it is comforting to know that we are in the best hands.

Big thank you for a wonderful week and see you soon!
Patsy and Alex (Philippines)

This was one of the most spectacular vacations I have been on.
heiko, Rebecca and Leann – THANK YOU SO MUCH! Absolutely the best crew in every detail of the trip. And fun, great company.
Kept us safe and catered to our type of vacation. Thank you for taking the time to take us to the best spots – snorkeling was fantastic. The food was 5-stars!!
We will definitely be back!
Pam. F

It was AMAZING. We ALL had a total blast. Heiko, Rebecca, and Maia were simply the best.

Maia’s food was great, and she really was the perfect chef for us. Lots of seafood and veggies. All delicious! Plus, Maia is adorable and always cheerful.

Heiko is a superlative captain – so steady and uber-responsible. He also was a great tour guide in general. His love for snorkeling and everything in the sea was contagious, and he took us to many out of the way snorkeling spots. I think my youngest grandson (10) wants to be just like Heiko when he grows up. 😂. Heiko really planned the perfect itinerary for our family. I feel like the activities, sailing, etc. were perfectly paced for all.

Rebecca is an amazing woman. Just so terrific, kind, and interesting. She took such good care of us every single day. Both Heiko and she always made sure Ed (89) felt safe, particularly getting on and off the dinghy.

We kayaked, snorkeled, paddle-boarded, tubed, and in general spent a ton of time in the water.

The boat was very comfortable, including the beds. The weather was terrific. The food was delicious. The crew was A+. The trip exceeded my expectations, and they were very high to begin with. It was a great family celebration, and we will always remember it as a very special and fun adventure. Though Ed didn’t do the water activities, he also really loved the trip.

Thanks for your help in planning a terrific vacation.

Our week with the three of you on Sail Away was FANTASTIC! it surpassed all expectations. Rebecca, your thoughtfulness and kindness shine through each day in all the many things you did for each of us.
heiko, you are the Captain Extraordinaire! We felt safe in your ever-capable hands. You were an amazing ocean tour guide also. You have created time aspiring free divers in Charles and Arthur. Olivia loved all of your deep knowledge of the sea.
Maia, you made us and our tummies SO HAPPY! We want to adopt you. Your food was terrific and we didn’t have to break out the Ramen for the boys.

In short – we love all of you and you ROCK!

We have lived an island dream for 7 days. Thank you for allowing our family to drift away with y’all. So many magical memories have been made on Sail Away. I will miss being waited on hand and foot.
Heiko, thank you for being our fearless captain. You were always ready to create an adventure for us. And you sail beautifully. Your knowledge of the island and the water is impressive.

Rebecca, thank you for always being so eager to help us out when needed. And thank you for all the cocktails – our favorite part! And you catch the “rope” perfectly every time 🙂

Maia, you should be proud that we are leaving with “Bodies by Maia” wow, there are no words to how amazing your food is. I have enjoyed trying new dishes and new flavors. And your food presentation is hands down the best. You have a special gift.

Well, it is time to go home. I have relaxed on a level I/we have never relaxed at and we appreciate y’all making that happen for our family. We will miss our floating abode.

God Bless

Dearest Rebecca, Heiko and Maia
From the fantastic meals, to the scuba diving, Rebecca’s painkillers and every single moment spent on the Sail Away, i can’t begin to explain to you how happy we have been on this voyage. You made every moment magical and unforgettable.
thank you, thank you, thank you. Can’t wait to be back. You are the best crew ever!
Adriana R.

Thank you for this incredible vacation of a lifetime. Rarely are we able to unplug and relax like we have been able to this week! Thank you for all that you have done to make this so special.

Holy cow – Maia – the food! You managed to blow us away at every meal. And Rebecca the painkillers were the best in the BVI! Heiko – your ability to keep us on time and to lead our aquatic expeditions were second to none.
We can’t wait for our paths to cross again!
Adam, Danielle, Will, Kate John, Beth, Annie, Brett, Nick and Adriana

Your hospitality on Sail Away this week has allowed this group to build on friendships, remember who we are as individuals outside of our everyday lives and rejuvenate ourselves fully.
Your knowledge of this beautiful place, ability to stay steps ahead of us and the weather, and the most amazing food to fuel us, made this a truly remarkable and unforgettable experience.
Thank you.

Most amazing time, most amazing crew. Words can’t express how much joy you have made this vacation
Thank you

We need and want to take Heiko, Rebecca and Leann home with us – AMAZING CREW!
Steve and Kim K

OMG – great trip.
For us it was different because we had previously chartered with the previous crew – Mike and Leslie. It was hard for us to switch crews after so many years, but you all did an amazing job! We appreciated your kindness and understanding and certainly your hospitality.
Thank you for a great trip.
To Leann – great food
To Rebecca – all your attentiveness to details and..
to Heiko – young and knowledgeable

We appreciate you all!!
Sharon and Rick

We had the a great experience on a catamaran charter with Heiko and Rebecca! We had a slight “hiccup” at the start but from the moment we boarded, they made us feel right at home with their warmth and professionalism.
The catamaran itself was comfortable, spacious, and equipped with everything we needed for a week of luxury on the water.
Heiko’s expertise in sailing was evident, and we felt completely safe and comfortable under his guidance.
Rebecca was an outstanding host, making sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable experience.
The scenery was breathtaking, and we had the chance to explore hidden coves, swim in crystal-clear waters, and enjoy delicious meals Maia prepared for us every day. Their attention to detail, knowledge of the area, and overall hospitality made this charter a five-star experience.
Highly recommend to anyone looking for a perfect day on the water!

Thanks for an amazing week. You guys were terrific. You made our trip to the BVI’s more special than we could have imagined.

Thank you for letting us enjoy this wonderful week in the BVI’s. it was a pleasure to get to know both of you.

BEST VACATION EVER!!

Amazing, wonderful, memorable! You all made this trip perfect for our family. I don’t think I have seen Ryan so relaxed and I was too. Your hard work in planning our meals did not go unnoticed. We certainly appreciate every bit of the care you took to make this trip perfect.

Thank you for welcoming our little pirate, Lainey, onboard. Such a fun time having our 8 month old granddaughter on board with us.We will cherish our memories with you always and hopefully, our paths will cross again on another sailing adventure.

Rebecca and Heiko
Thank you for a wonderful experience in the BVI.
Appreciated your kindness and hospitality each and every day.
Food and service was above and beyond.

Your professionalism was above and beyond.

Heiko and Rebecca
This was the best trip of my life!
We cannot thank you enough for the perfectly planned trip.
We will be coming back for sure and cannot wait for future adventures.

Heiko and Rebecca
We cannot thank you enough for our wonderful week in paradise.
We were blown away by the food, the views and the fun activities throughout the week.
You both have been so helpful and taught us so much about the Virgin islands.
This place and this vacation will always have a special place in our hearts. We would recommend your charter to all of our friends.
Cheers to you and this amazing place.

Thank you for everything this week. Your knowledge of the areas we visited, and your dedication to conservation and education are unrivaled.
We really appreciated the customer service especially after realizing that we truly were being pampered! The food was outstanding (every meal) and I couldn’t be happier to spend the week with you!
Also, thank you for the helpful hints; without that I would not have been able to have the snorkel experience I did!

Heiko and Rebecca
Before this week, I didn’t know what vacation meant. You spoiled us all thoroughly. The islands and oceans knowledge so freely given; the never ending incredible food; the peace and the parties. 🙂
We are going home sun-kissed, relaxed and full of new information and joy.
Thank you for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

All the conservation education was the highlight for me!

his has been a trip of a lifetime for me. Many firsts. Such amazing sites and having you both guiding us and helping along the way was incredible.
Learning about the islands and sea-life was eye opening.
I truly appreciate everything you both have done this entire week. The food was absolutely amazing and delicious.
Thank you for making this trip unforgettable.

Many times in our lives we have felt truly blessed. This was one of those times!
Thank you so much for taking care of us. This trip was transformational.
We wish you a lifetime of Joy and Happiness.
Your kindness, your professionalism, your vibe was top notch!

The crew exceeded ALL expectations. Adrien was super chill, Vanessa was super hospitable, and Leanne, OMG her cooking was amazing. She seemed to be working the ENTIRE time. Every meal was AMAZING.
We loved our experience on Sail Away! Cabins were surprisingly spacious and lots of great areas to hang out (including the bow and the very upper deck). We learned there’s a big difference between a 50 ft Cat and a 60 ft like Sail Away, we are spoiled now! The crew exceeded ALL expectations, we now believe this is the most important thing when selecting a charter. Adrien (captain), Vanessa (first mate) and Leanne (chef) were so awesome. But we must single out Leeanne, we are “foodies” and every meal blew us away, even the breakfasts. We hope to be back and hope for this same crew!

Kim, master chef, meal after meal. Simply incredible!! Mike, Mike, Michael, Big Mac. For a guy you have very sweet energy, ha ha! We all appreciated your thoughtfulness in getting us to just the right spots. But remember to slow down 😊 I don’t think your dancing improved over the week! Kim, I can still make room in my bag for you! ❤️
Thank you again, you all truly are extraordinary in so many ways. I think I’m in love with you all. Happiest of holidays.

We recently spent 10 days aboard Sail Away with Colleen and Peter Lauber. The experience from beginning to end was seamless and transporting. First, our charter broker arranged the charter and facilitated travel plans and navigating the BVI Covid restrictions/requirements. That was a great help! The BVI are VERY Covid safe by the way. Once you do the required paperwork and testing it is fabulous to be here. So don’t let that stop you from coming!!

We met Colleen and Peter at the Cay, a short ride from the airport, and off we went. We had 4 days of on-boat quarantine and, really, who could complain about beautiful bays, snorkeling, swimming, kayaking etc?! After a day 4 test and subsequent test result we hit land for our first on shore activities.

Colleen and Peter, our hosts on Sail Away, were EXCELLENT in every way. They are both highly experienced sailors and know every corner of (and almost everyone in) the BVI. They took incredible care of us from charting our trip, arranging activities, and preparing delicious meals. Colleen clearly did a ton of preparation to be able to prepare gourmet dishes with ease for a group that also included gluten free vegans. And they were funny, fun, and overall great to get to know.

Oh and Sail Away is gorgeous. No need for me to say more – JUST GET HERE.

Carla – New York, USA

Dear Mike, Lizzy and Lisa, Thank you for making this trip an exceptional adventure! Bill and I have enjoyed every minute, just when we thought we had had the best then another day bought more.

Thank you each for your gift of conversation, inclusion of event planning, helpfulness etc. Thank you with love Bill & Glenda

Mike, Lizzy & Lisa,
We sure enjoyed the entire trip. Thank you all for your kind hospitality. You are a great bunch to sail with. Good company, good food and good beverages.

Mike, Lizzy & Lisa! It took only 5 seconds from the moment we stepped on to the boat to feel your warmth & sincerity… And we felt comfortable and cared for… and relaxed!

It was a trip of a life-time, we are so grateful for the experience and love you all!! Many blessings Doug and Lisa X

Everyone was so nice – I would not change a thing!!! Really enjoyed our trip and HOPE to do it again. Best crew and chef!!! Our friends were so happy with the trip!!!

Just returned home from a fabulous family 7 day vacation aboard Vacoa. Our family consisted of 9 people ages 13, 14, 17, 18, 25, 27, 50, 59. Fun for everyone from the water activities, destinations, cocktails and the food, we could not have been happier! Captain Jason, Steward Lucy and Chef Louis, treated all of us with professionalism and enthusiasm. Every request was greeted with a smile. We can’t wait to book our next trip aboard Vacoa! Thanks again for an incredible time!
Jennifer Attaway

This is the second time that we vacationed on the Vacoa with friends and we had another fabulous week with great weather in the BVI! The crew kept us busy with multiple destinations and activities daily; we loved Oil Nut Bay, Scrub Island, Bitter End and the remote bays where everyone had a blast with multiple water activities! Captain Jason did an unbelievable job keeping us very active while Chef Will was back in the kitchen preparing fantastic breakfasts, lunches, snacks and dinners! Lucy, the second mate, was a joy to be with, she made delicious tropical drinks, cleaned up after us and kept us entertained! A great time was had by all!

Marco Island

We chartered Vacoa in the BVI in January of 2017 and enjoyed every minute of it. The boat is a 620 Lagoon (our second trip on the same model) and I would not charter in the BVI on any other model of boat. The fact that the top deck can accommodate all 10 guests beats any other boat in its class.

The boat is in great condition and the salon and state rooms are well appointed.

Jason and Team did a wonderful job and the food blew away our expectations (which were high from our previous trip on another boat). I’d recommend getting off the boat for cocktails here and there but eating on board as none of the island restaurants can match the quality and presentation of the food.

They had plenty of sports equipment on board — everything from water skis to wakeboard, to kayaks, to paddle boards, etc…. Full service boat with fantastic crew — perfect match.

Message for the broker : I have no words (which everyone will tell you is unusual for me J)! The guests had a fabulous time on VACOA. The comments keep coming.
The crew was amazing and Christine was just incredible. We ate like kings all week. Claire and Xavier were so nice and wonderful. The vacation was amazing! We loved every minute of it….the best vacation ever.

It was incredible! Im ready to look for next year. Call me!

Comment from the broker:
I just wanted to send you an email and tell you how proud I am of Xavier and his crew on VACOA! He is such a pleasure to work with. My clients had the best trip ever on board with them.
Thank you for all your assistance!

This charter was by far the best I have been on to date…maybe it was the yacht? Maybe it was the crew? Both were amazing and better than expected. The yacht’s condition was impeccable, the accommodations definitely met with our expectations, perhaps even better. We did not fully appreciate the upper deck of the yacht; I think we hung out there most of the time. We also did not realize we had a fourth crew member which was terrific! The crew was phenomenal. Xavier and Claire were so professional and accommodating to all of your wishes. Christine our chef was 5 star!! Every meal was delicious and special – what she was able to accomplish with such limited provisions was truly amazing. The final dinner our last night was a special treat – surprise Pirate Party!! Maxim was our 4th crew member and such a delight. He really took care of all of us…day or night!!

The week went by so fast even though it was 7 days on a boat…we went to every location we wanted plus some. Xavier knew exactly when the best times would be for snorkeling, seeing turtles, exploring the Baths (when all of the people had left); he even knew how to keep us out of the stormy weather! We enjoyed hiking on the islands, tennis at two resorts, sailing at Bitter End and spa treatments on shore. They really did an amazing job keeping all of us happy.

I just want to thank you for your advice and organization of my charter onboard VACOA during our Easter break.We had a fantastic tour onboard a great boat, run by a very professional, knowledgable and service minded crew. My family and I enjoyed every minute and we will certainly come back in not too distant future. I can easily recommend this boat with existing crew to anyone that want to have a time of their life experience. Thank you

Just a quick check in after a most delightful week on the water with great friends and a fantastic crew! The chef Christine was also over the top on professional skills and food quality/presentation, and always pleasant and open to teaching us about her dishes and how they were prepared. As a business owner myself, I know it is important to get prompt and direct feedback and consider this a 100+ score, simply blew us away! It goes without saying that the captain and crew had our comfort and hospitality in mind 24/7; and clearly a crack sailing team.

Well done! The Vacoa and crew were perfect for our team of six non-adventurers. I have already recommended them to other friends. I know we will be in touch again next year.
