Reviews
While Luke worked extremely hard to provide wonderful spots to explore. Chloe made one amazing meal after another. Luke offered great water toys, a day of tubing, bonfire on the beach for sunset and Snuba. This team was absolutely amazing and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a fabulous BVI vacation.
Chef Chloe created a lovely dining experience aboard our yacht. Her dishes and presentation are an expressions of creativity and passion that leave a lasting impression. The freshness of the ingredients was evident in every dish. Last but certainly not least was her lemon cheesecake—that can only be described as heavenly. It was smooth, silky and light with a soft lemon flavor that will forever linger in my memory. The perfect ending to a flawless evening and meal. I really hated to leave. I'lI miss the scenery, the boat, but most of all our two new friends.
This was our first time on a charter like this and they were very good in handling us first timers.
