GBAmazing Vacation! We chartered catamaran, Alive! for 7 nights in mid January. Booking with Ellen at VI Sailing was a breeze. She is extremely friendly and helpful. Kristina was also wonderful and assisted with planning our trip. While aboard Alive, Captain Noam and Chef Dalit were incredible! Noam is a great captain, he knows all the best islands and activities. Dalit is an incredible chef, we loved every meal! They are truly an awesome crew!! We had a total of 8 guests on the boat, it was plenty spacious and the accommodations were great. We had a wonderful trip and highly recommend this vacation!!

GBVery grateful for wonderful service! Emily and her team provided amazing service. She helped us book a charter in 2015 which sadly fell through due to a health issue with the captain, but was right there to help us book another charter in 2016. She connected us with a great boat and crew, facilitated all the details, and even helped us rent extra SUPs and had them delivered to the boat. Overall, a very personal and thorough service. Highly recommended!

GBAs Planned - Perfection From the ease of the website to the ease in communications, our experience was wonderful. Emily helped us choose a yacht and crew based on our budget and desires. She kept us informed at all times. The trip planner was very thorough and didn't skip anything. The travel guide and supplies they provide was an extra unanticipated surprise. Everything went off without a hitch. Our yacht cook had a medical issue just prior to our trip and they sent in a very qualified replacement. We could not have asked for a better experience! Thanks VI Sailing!!! Thanks Emily!!!!!!

GBAbsolutely rude and unresponsive despite being repeat customers for over two years Been brokering through VI Sailing for the last two years with Emily. The first year went okay. There were some misunderstandings concerning the number of people that were to be on trip that caused some 11th hour hurdles but Emily helped us out and even split some of the extra costs with us. The second year, the boat we chartered with Emily ran aground and it happened unbeknownst to VI Sailing. We ultimately made things work out but VI Sailing did very little to help alleviate about a month's worth of consternation leading up to our arrival. The third year we contact Emily and VI Sailing again about booking another yacht or two and she/they promised to work on it. We heard nothing back from her and frankly still haven't. We ended up having to reach out to your prior Captain and he arranged our trip. I would love to recommend VI Sailing because sailing in the BVI is magically but I find VI Sailing and their staff reactive at best and unresponsive to issues at worse. You can do better than this given how much it costs to charter and all the moving pieces they are suppose to be taking care of on your behalf. Beware of this operation and, if you do choose them, Emily in particular.

GBBest vacation ever! We had the best vacation ever. Matt and Casey were great and very fun. The food they prepared for us exceeded our expectations. Each day they had various itineraries for us to choose from so very laid back. Highly recommend sailing the Island R&R.
