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.

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!

GBBlue Passion Sailing Greg, Vanessa and Blue Passion gave my family the trip of a lifetime. We were totally satisfied and won't hesitate to book with them again. They are totally committed to customer satisfaction, know their sailing areas very well, and have all the tools to make your vacation a true joy. Vanessa is gourmet French chef who turns every meal into a dinning experience. Greg is an extremely competent and experienced captain. They are both wonderful to be around.

GBVirgin Island Sailing and our charter on Bel Ami We chose Virgin Island Sailing to help us make charter arrangements for a sailing vacation in the Virgin Islands. Their website was vey helpful and provided lots of detail. After choosing the best option for us, Melody and her staff answered our many questions. They were very helpful and we would choose them again.

GBBucket List Adventure - truly remarkable outdoor experience Captain Jim and first mate and cook extra-ordinary (Sherri) were fantastic. They know the islands inside and out and were open to all suggestions and accomodations. Their piloted the catamaran Nadiya through US and Britsh Virgin Islands. The snorkling was really great - we saw spotted eagle rays and less seen cuddle fish; we even snorkeled over an old ship reck and swam with turtles. Weather was perfect. Sunsets fantastic. We love the outdoors and the green, turquoise blue water. We have already shared pictures and stories with friends and family. Yes, we are recommending this trip to others. Something everyone should try to do if they can.
