We couldn’t be more happy with the boat and the crew. It’s amazing start and already starting chatting about another one maybe around the Greek islands. Thanks Boatbookings, we can not wait!
This was the best vacation I have ever been on! The food was absolutely incredible, words can not not describe how much i loved it! Tubing was so much fun and so exhilarating! I wish I could never leave. I hope you remember us and we will be back! You made this place feel like home.
It was the vacation of a lifetime! The crew was nothing short of wonderful, the itinerary was perfect and the yacht itself was impeccable. Naomi & David’s attention to it was clear. The food was excellent and they provided for us in every way - including an impromptu game night of sequence pitting my kids and the crew!
We cannot thank you enough for the amazing time! From the moment we stepped on board we felt completely at home. You both are so warm and gracious. Your attention to detail is outstanding. Our every want and need was anticipated.
We will never forget all the different sites, activities and excursions you planned for us. We would have a difficult time picking a favourite. Each day was better than the last and the meals were so delicious that many nights we chose to eat on board rather than venture out. When we did go dine on land your recommendations were just right!
We hope to see you back in the states, you are welcome at our home anytime!
We recently embarked on an unforgettable journey aboard the Ocelot, navigating the serene waters of the British Virgin Islands with our exceptional captain, Tim and his partner Zara. From the moment we set sail from St. Thomas, the adventure was nothing short of magical. Each destination, from St. John to the secluded beauty of Anegada and the vibrant atmosphere of Jost Van Dyke, was meticulously chosen, ensuring a blend of adventure, relaxation, and unparalleled beauty.
The Ocelot itself was a haven of comfort and luxury. Its recent upgrades, including the plush seating and state-of-the-art amenities, made our stay incredibly comfortable. Whether it was lounging on the fly-bridge with a 360-degree view or enjoying the gourmet meals prepared on board, every moment was a testament to the excellence and attention to detail by Tim and Zara.
Their expertise not only as sailors but as hosts made our journey memorable. They went above and beyond to accommodate our interests, from diving island excursions to the best snorkeling spots, ensuring that each day was filled with new discoveries and experiences. The warmth and genuine care they showed made us feel like family, turning a great trip into an extraordinary one.
To Tim and Zara, thank you for making our voyage across the BVI so special. Your passion for sailing and the love for the islands shone through in every aspect of the trip. We returned home with hearts full of joy and memories that will last a lifetime. We look forward to our next adventure aboard the Ocelot, exploring more of the Caribbean’s hidden treasures.
We are slowly getting back to daily life. Here are some comments on the trip.
Crew – Nick and Amy were fantastic. They were hospitable, easy to work with and fun. One important aspect was Nick always tried to anchor the boat in the evening to get the best view of the sunset!
Food – Amy did an exceptional job preparing meals on the boat. I was impressed by the diversity and quality of the menu.
Experiences – Our visit to Anegada Island was very fun for everyone. The mode of transportation, visit to quiet beaches and the Tipsy beach bar were great.
Overall, it was an exceptional trip that we all enjoyed. Thank you, Boatbookings, for your assistance in coordinating our vacation.
Personality: Tim and Zara were super receptive to our family`s objectives for the trip. They tailored it based on feedback I gave them ahead of time and then made some adjustments on the fly. Beyond that, they were just fun people. For example, one of our kids is really into planes, and Tim took us to some sunken planes to dive on.
Food: The food was incredible. Whether it was the breakfasts, lunches, or dinners, I can’t say enough about the quality and variety.
The Boat: The boat was clean, well-decorated, and comfortable. I liked the layout and the ease of use of the various “toys” on the boat.
Bottom line: we were looking for a trip of adventure, nature, and family time, and Ocelot and the team definitely delivered. Thank you Boatbookings, professional with lots of knowledge on the best boats and crews.
We had a great time! Captain Jamie and Martin were very easy to work with and lots of fun. We enjoyed getting to know them. The yacht worked well and the food was yummy and thoughtfully prepared. Both Jamie and Martin worked at making it a really special trip for us. They were flexible and creative with their suggestions and we managed to get a lot of swim time in. The accommodations were excellent!
Kayla & Chris - wow, wow, wow! Thank you for sharing your passions with us and treating us like friends. The time spent on the water watching the beautiful islands pass and listening to the water was amazing. Chris, your culinary delights were beyond phenomenal, Larry was especially happy. Kayla, your ability to find the right spot was perfect, and the wet dinghy ride was memorable to say the least. The islands are gorgeous and we truly appreciate the time you took to explore with us! Until we cross paths again and jump off Willy T`s together, happy sailing! Thank you to Boatbookings for your excellent guidance.
The crew was awesome. They were super nice and friendly. Chris was very responsive and accommodating to all our culinary and thirst needs. Kayla was also very pleasant!
The FELIX was lovely. We really liked the layout of the Lagoon 52. Everyone had their own favourite personal spots, and it had the perfect blend of intimacy and privacy. Here are a few of our favourite memories:
- All the meals on the yacht, Chris was an amazing chef!
-Relaxing on the boat as we motored from one location to the next.
- Relaxing and playing in the water.
- Sipping drinks and cocktails all day long.
- Saba Rock happy hour upstairs.
- Hanging out at Willy T’s for a few with Chris and Kayla!
- Snorkelling around the Indians.
- The taxi ride on Jost van Dyke.
- Looking at all the stars at night.
- Watching the moon rise.
We had a great time and we will be talking about the experience for a long time to come!
