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!!

GBCatamaran Vacation on Nutmeg From the start, VI sailing was easy to communicate with and supplied us with many options to fit our budget. In the end we trusted their experience and knowledge about the boat and crew we chose. That was a good move on our part since Nutmeg could not have been more perfect. The information supplied by VI Sailing helped with the logistics with the ferry system and much needed information about the BVI's.

GBGreat Vacation We chartered a catamaran through VIS for Christmas 2014 and had an amazing vacation! We sailed on the Pisces boat with Steve and Louise, and the entire week couldn't have gone smoother. They planned everything for us, from the pick-up at the airport, to daily activities, to meals our whole family loved (we are picky eaters). They we great about listening to what we wanted and expected out of a vacation and they came through 100%. We couldn't have asked for a better crew or a better vacation.

GBSailing on Sea Witch is family, fabulous fun! Our two teenagers learned so much from Captain John's informative, yet laid back passion to sail safely. Susan provided delicious meals and taught new games, always with smiles and laughter. Together they took us snorkeling where we saw colorful fish, turtles and coral. Hiked, kayaked, and relaxed on a variety of islands. Fished along the way and kids learned to fillet the fish that Susan cooked for lunch. Each day was spent on a beautiful island taking in the sights, eating local food either on the boat or shore and enjoying beverages of choice. Capt. John and Susan were easy to be with the entire week, always providing our family of four a spectacularly relaxed vacation. Boat was very comfortable for all of us and spacious. They know the islands well and while hearing what we wanted to do, with review of weather conditions, planned a sailing itinerary that was exciting.

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.
