Top-Notch

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! 🙂

Stop Looking and Book This Crew

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!

Best Vacation Ever!

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!

Broker Review

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.

Broker Review - Personal Charter

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.

Filled Our Hearts Sailing Here

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.

More than 5 Stars.

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!

One In A Million Experience!

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!!

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!

Truly A Dream Vacation!

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!!
