I can easily say this was the hardest vacation to come back from because it was nothing short of a DREAM vacation. It was everything I could have ever hoped for and then some.
Capt Brian was amazing. He was so patient and kind during our trip. He was such a skillful and knowledgeable captain, and it showed when we always got the best parking spots at each stopover. He knew when to leave and arrive at those spots to ensure we got the best locations, and he got us so close to the beaches that it was amazing to watch him work. We felt safe and taken care of the entire time. I can easily say that every day was our favorite, but each day was special in its own way. Ronde Island and St. Vincent had the clearest water and best snorkeling. Tobago Cays and Sandy Island have the most amazing watercolors. The lobster dinner at the Tobago Cays was the best meal of the trip. Chatham Bay and Mayreau made us feel like we were the only people around. Canuan and the Sandy Island Yacht Club was nothing short of amazing. We really felt like millionaires there.
Thanks again to you and everyone at boatbookings for giving us our dream vacation.
This was the best vacation I have ever been on! The food was absolutely incredible, words can not not describe how much i loved it! Tubing was so much fun and so exhilarating! I wish I could never leave. I hope you remember us and we will be back! You made this place feel like home.
It was the vacation of a lifetime! The crew was nothing short of wonderful, the itinerary was perfect and the yacht itself was impeccable. Naomi & David’s attention to it was clear. The food was excellent and they provided for us in every way - including an impromptu game night of sequence pitting my kids and the crew!
We wanted to share with you our most recent experience on Alice.
So we think this was the best trip so far.
It was because of many reasons although not to say the other trips was not wonderful.
To start, the boat was great. It was roomy, I guess because of the width and the 3rd floor.
Rooms were all good. No one felt cramped.
The dive boat was a bonus, getting us to the reefs for snorkeling was great.
The smaller tender worked well for our trips to the beaches.
With beaches, swimming and snorkeling being high on our list, this addressed those very well.
My brother in law enjoyed his dive as well.
The snorkeling was probably the best we have ever done. The sea life including swimming with the sharks and seeing the manta ray behind our boat was fabulous.
What made the trip most enjoyable was the staff.
They were all very gracious and accommodating.
Food was very good and again the chef was always interested in what we would like to have to eat.
In summary, we are looking to book with Alice again, probably 10 days next March, earlier in the month. Thanks Boatbookings for all your support - we are still all enjoying our memories of a most enjoyable trip.
To our Alice crew,
The highest praise I can give is that I want to come back and take another journey with this same crew. I love you for making our trip everything I could have asked for. Such sweet, lovely men taking care of all things for all of us. We are a group of 8 - 6 family and 2 friends. We have memories to last a lifetime. Each day was something special - new sand bank, new reef, great food, water toys, beach sunset cocktails, dinner BBQ at the most beautiful of venues. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to you, Alice crew, and my husband for arranging this trip and bringing our family and friends to share in this magic.
A sincere thank you for a fabulous trip. Lots of laughs and enjoyment for all. Great food/wine/drinks and music. Sunsets are beautiful, day activities well planned and organized. Thank you Ron and Chris for the invite. Thank you to captain and crew. Safe and happy travels.
Wow - all I can say about this trip. Thank you Nick and Maddy for a trip of a lifetime. The sailing, snorkelling, adventuring and the FOOD! All were awesome! All meal constraints were taken into account and Maddy made it happen. Words cannot express our appreciation for such a wonderful trip. Thank you again for everything - especially the laughter!
We cannot thank you enough for the amazing time! From the moment we stepped on board we felt completely at home. You both are so warm and gracious. Your attention to detail is outstanding. Our every want and need was anticipated.
We will never forget all the different sites, activities and excursions you planned for us. We would have a difficult time picking a favourite. Each day was better than the last and the meals were so delicious that many nights we chose to eat on board rather than venture out. When we did go dine on land your recommendations were just right!
We hope to see you back in the states, you are welcome at our home anytime!
We recently embarked on an unforgettable journey aboard the Ocelot, navigating the serene waters of the British Virgin Islands with our exceptional captain, Tim and his partner Zara. From the moment we set sail from St. Thomas, the adventure was nothing short of magical. Each destination, from St. John to the secluded beauty of Anegada and the vibrant atmosphere of Jost Van Dyke, was meticulously chosen, ensuring a blend of adventure, relaxation, and unparalleled beauty.
The Ocelot itself was a haven of comfort and luxury. Its recent upgrades, including the plush seating and state-of-the-art amenities, made our stay incredibly comfortable. Whether it was lounging on the fly-bridge with a 360-degree view or enjoying the gourmet meals prepared on board, every moment was a testament to the excellence and attention to detail by Tim and Zara.
Their expertise not only as sailors but as hosts made our journey memorable. They went above and beyond to accommodate our interests, from diving island excursions to the best snorkeling spots, ensuring that each day was filled with new discoveries and experiences. The warmth and genuine care they showed made us feel like family, turning a great trip into an extraordinary one.
To Tim and Zara, thank you for making our voyage across the BVI so special. Your passion for sailing and the love for the islands shone through in every aspect of the trip. We returned home with hearts full of joy and memories that will last a lifetime. We look forward to our next adventure aboard the Ocelot, exploring more of the Caribbean’s hidden treasures.
