No one can control the weather and the crew did an amazing job to move us around to sheltered water and find the best weather they could for us on some of those days.

We actually had an excellent time, we made the best of the days and toys and the yacht. We were very appreciative of the crew and staff and how hard they worked to take care of all of us. We have nothing but great things to say about the whole team and we are all very happy to have a trip of a lifetime for our group.

This trip was the dream-vacation of a lifetime, planned to celebrate W’s birthday and W & C’s 60th Wedding Anniversary.

Our our entire immediate family of ten, nine were able to come with us and spend this dream-week onboard “Sweet Escape”.

It was an astounding week of togetherness, family fun, fabulous meals, beautiful sights and loving attention from the outstanding crew.

A finer group of people could not be found anywhere. They anticipated our every wish and need, minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour, day-by-day.

Thank you.

‘Dear Captain Paul,

What an incredible week we had on Sweet Escape, in large part because of you and your wonderful crew. 

WOW!! I don’t know where to begin to thank you for an experience our family will talk about for years to come. As you know from our conversations our family is fortunate to have traveled a lot. We picked Croatia because none of the 9 of us had been there. That was a good start because it is wonderful.

Our next good fortune was to work with Mary and her organization. Then we really hit the jackpot because she recommended Sweet Escape.

What an experience. Our family didn’t really want to do any touring of cathedrals or castles or any of that stuff. They just wanted to stay on board, read, talk and do water activities. And did they ever do the water toy program. Your crew went beyond the call of duty to be patient with us learning how to ride all the toys. We loved it.

The food was outstanding. All the meals were a delight and the service of the wait staff was over the top. My wife and daughter (who is an interior designer) took a picture of every table setting because they could have all been in a magazine. We loved the food so much but the portions were perfect and we never felt over fed nor did we all gain a lot of weight. Congratulations for that. Very well done.

Now, about you Capt. Paul. Real pressure is having a guy like me on board who is Commendore of his yacht club with his own boat, sitting in the wheel house a lot watching all that you are doing. You were terrific. Thank you for running a safe, tight, well supervised boat. It is noticed and appreciated.

X also sends her most sincere thanks and gratitude for taking such good care of our family.

Bottom line. This was an unforgettable experience that we will not soon forget.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU

What an amazing trip! We worked and planned this adventure through Croatia for a year, and it surely paid off! The fabulous crew of Motoryacht Sweet Escape took absolute care of all our needs before we even knew what we needed ourselves. They could not have been more attentive! We will all miss them! The yacht was a gem, we never lacked for an activity! The food was fantastic each day. Our family thanks you all, each and every one, for the most wonderful trip of a lifetime. We hope to see you all again in the near future. XO.

Dear Captain Paul & Crew,

This last week has truly been a blessing and a lifelong memory for our family. While Sweet Escape is phenomenal and our natural surroundings incredibly picturesque, it has been your care and service to our family that has made this vacation!
We cannot remember another holiday opportunity when we have all felt so cared for. From the moment we woke up in the mornings until our heads hit the pillows each night—one of you was always looking out for us. Thank you so much for truly caring not only for our comfort but also for our safety. We will never forget all of the wonderful meals, our squeaky clean cabins, the hours & hours & hours on the “toys”, our trips into quaint towns, champagne conversations, safe and professional travel and most of all, your company and friendship. Thank you again for caring for us. We will always cherish this week!
Sincerely,

Guest

 Dear Sweet Escape,

It was the first time in Bahamas for all the family, and we all agree to say that it is stunning! So beautiful!

We had a superb time on Sweet Escape during our one week stay.

Thank you so much Captain and all your crew. Everyone is very professional, nice. It has been a pure pleasure to stay onboard and we hope to come back in the future.

We wish Sweet Escape and her crew all the best! We will miss you!

 The Sweet Escape is a luxury vacation on the water. The yacht is spacious and full of any amenity you can think of.

What made this trip, though, was the staff aboard the ship. They literally catered to your every need and made us all feel comfortable. They never got tired of our questions and stayed crazy busy behind the scenes all day and night. The owner of the yacht hit a home run with this crew!

When we charter a yacht again we will make sure to be aboard the Sweet Escape and hope the same staff is there! Thank you Paul, Simon, Bernie, Craig, Hendrix, Carly and William.
You guys are all top notch!

Broker Feedback:

The experience that you and your client had working with the Captain
Captain Greig was great to work with from start to finish. He proactively arranged transfers
and activities. The clients noted that the transfers were “perfect”, drivers were very friendly and
punctual.

Your clients’ experience with the crew
They absolutely loved the crew. Big shout outs to Michelle, Ash, Captain Greig. The primary’s
wife has issues with staying steady while walking, she said that there was always a crew
member there to help here, whether it was aboard or off the yacht.

Favorite thing about the yacht
The crew and the water sports 🙂

Chef & cuisine
Chef was on point although X explained it was a lot of food – portions were a bit large for her
and Y. The other guests thought the portions were appropriate.

Working with the CA
I think I may be a little bias, but it was a great experience and appreciate you and Rod’s
assistance!

Any highlights or “wow” moments from the charter
Fireworks on Z’s birthday, house music playlists, water sports adventures, the cuisine, the
service, and the crew’s consistent top-notch service.

Whether you’d recommend SWEET ESCAPE for future charter
100%!! These clients are already interested in returning and asked about their 2027 or 2028
schedule and I will continue to offer SWEET ESCAPE with confidence.
