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.

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!!

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.

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!
