GBTwo Time Winners This was our second sail aboard a VI Sailing charter boat, and once again, we had a fabulous trip. Nadiya is a well-appointed 47-foot catamaran. Captain Colleen and Chef/First Mate Matt were welcoming, knowledgeable, enthusiastic and eager to make sure our family trip was a success. We sailed over Christmas week -- our first Christmas away from home -- and they made it extra special by decorating the boat, including a tiny Christmas tree! Matt's cooking was five-star every single meal. We asked for healthy meals and fun desserts, and he outdid himself preparing breakfasts, lunches and dinners that satisfied our desire for light, fresh food while focusing on truly beautiful presentation. Out two teenage girls had loads of fun snorkeling, swimming, paddle boarding, hiking, shopping, visiting local hot spots, swimming in the Bubbly Pool and relaxing aboard. Great sailing and lots of fun games of hearts by candlelight!

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.

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!

GBIsland R&R, a fantastic week! Thank you Matt and Casey! As first time catamaran vacationers our expectations were high for a week sailing around the BVI...our seven days were everything we had hoped for and dreamed about! Matt took us to quiet bays for snorkeling, swimming and paddle boarding, which suited us perfectly. We enjoyed hearing a little bit about each island we passed, about the huge sail boats racing close to us and recommendations of which bars or restaurants were worth a visit:). The experience of actually sailing was wonderful! Casey was an absolute marvel in the galley, calmly and happily producing beautifully plated delicious meals and drinks:)! Thank you for a wonderful week Matt and Casey!

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!!
