Yacht Description
Easy living for six. OUI CHERIE is a 52-foot Lagoon 520 catamaran built in 2017, set up for 6 guests in three queen staterooms. Everyone gets proper space and their own bathroom and shower. No sharing schedules.
Outdoor flow, sorted. You can rotate between the flybridge’s big convertible settee, the forward cockpit lounge for coffee, and the aft cockpit for meals and lounging. The main salon stays social too, with an open-concept galley, a large sofa-chaise, and a flat-screen TV.
Water time is the point. A swim platform and outdoor shower make quick dips painless, and the toy mix is built for actual use: 2 paddleboards, floating mats (including a 20' Aqua Lily Pad), a towable tube, a wakeboard, and water skis for adults and kids. There’s also a Sub Wing for low-effort underwater gliding.
Comfort basics included. Full air conditioning and onboard Wi‑Fi keep life civilized between swims, plus a BBQ for casual lunches. Add snorkeling and scuba equipment onboard, and you can keep the day moving without a lot of planning.

OUI CHERIE
What a week!
What a week!! We arrived Saturday March 28 to fabulous weather and comfortable temperatures.
The sky was blue the water was turquoise and the food was amazing. Hugo and Greta have really made this trip memorable. Captain Hugo regaled us with tales of high adventure on the sea, and saved us when pirates attacked and almost ruined the day.
Greta fed us so well we gave up trying to eat out as her food was always superior. We snorkeled,
dove, played games, talked, laughed a lot, and enjoyed our family. We will remember this week
when we are old and grey. If either of you ever plan a trip to Kansas city, give us a call and you have a place to stay!

Absolutely once in a lifetime experience. Never would have imagined having a 52ft boat to ourselves. We cooked in the galley almost every meal with all the necessities on hand. Captain Jason is so very kind, accommodating and knowledgeable. We jumped off the back of the boat each day to swim with sea turtles. Comfortable beds, decent shower size, generator runs at night providing AC for humid nights. Thank you Captain Jason for your humor and genuine care/respect for the boat

Absolutely one of the coolest, unique, and best vacations we ever had!! Captain Jason was awesome and very accommodating. He helped with all logistics to ensure we had as smooth a trip as possible, inbound, outbound, and during. Very professional but down to earth as well. World class snorkelling right off the boat. Speaking of the yacht - It’s in incredible shape and excellently maintained by Jason. Extremely clean, tidy, comfortable. He takes his job and the boat seriously (in a good way) and it shows! I had so much fun. Jason also led on a couple incredible snorkeling dives.

There are not enough words to describe how amazing our stay was! The crew were extremely responsive, helpful, and friendly. The location was amazing, with the most amazing views and so close to everything. They made us feel as though we had known them forever and genuinely made our trip! I cannot recommend it enough.

We are well and had a fantastic charter. The boat was more than we expected, cabins were nicely outfitted and ver comfortable. The crew, Capt Brian and Shannon were perfect. Both with lots of suggestions re locations to snorkel, restaurants or bars on the islands and different hikes to explore. And the meals on board were excellent. They both did an excellent job, and each night’s mooring was breathtaking.

Matt and Jana, although it is tempting to give top billing to the enchanting chef/first mate Jana, it is the seamless manning that Capt. Matt performs the operation of the vessel that makes this extraordinary experience just that - extraordinary. The series of excursions and diversions makes 7 days seem twice as long. The dining from breakfast to dinner, desserts is a deeply memorable series of delights. It would be difficult to imaging two more delightful souls to guide and pamper their guests through an utterly unforgettable experience. Thank you so much!

Capt Matt - Your superb handing of the boat was very comforting and extremely capable. Not once did anything seem rushed or worrisome. Your knowledge of all of our excursions and the details for us in a foreign place. Your conversation was easy and again very knowledgable. Thank you for making this bucket list item such a pleasure!
Chef Jana - oh man, but your creative meals was top shelf. You charmed us with colorful and delightful, healthy and flavorful food! Beginning with imaginative starters to dangerously delicious desserts. You were kind and thorough in your service and I appreciate our side conversations! You two make an effective and amazingly fun team. With gratitude, Lisa B.
