Reviews

January 26th - February 3rd, 2024 BVI

Luke and Kristen,

When we arrived on the Azuria, Luke said this would be our home for the week. Having not previously spent any time on a boat, I was not sure how it would feel like a home. But, almost immediately, it did. We were almost immediately comfortable, at ease, and taking in all the beauty, the quiet, and the elements. And of course, everything the two of you did for us, seemingly all the time, made our comfort and ease possible. Your warm and endless hospitality, your attention to every detail, and the FOOD! I should say the food twice because it was so amazing, the nightly chart readings, the cocktails, and the feeling of being cared for and tended to all the time. Will was always seaworthy, but I feel seaworthy now. Thank you so much, we hope to be back.

Will and Linda

January 13th-20th, 2024 BVI

Dear Kristen and Captain Luke,

As we spend our last night with you on Azuria, we remember back to the fantastic time we have had this past week. From the time we stepped on the yacht, you two have taken impeccable care of us. We have seen parts of the world that we would not have gotten to without your safety measures and excellent knowledge. You are an efficient and master captain. The sails were so exciting. The briefings and the care you took of us was superb. Kristen - the food was exquisite, and your chef abilities are excellent. We appreciated every meal and the presentation. Loved your personal knowledge of the snorkel sites. Overall, awesome, exceptional, and gorgeous trip.

Thank you both,
Becky and Jim

Luke and Kristen,

Thank you for a truly memorable trip. Your attention to detail and level of service were simply amazing. The itinerary you put together for us was incredible. A fantastic first sailboat charter and trip throughout the BVI. We'll be back! Kristen, your food was fantastic. Fresh and tasty every single meal! You are a genius in the kitchen and everything else you did, didn't go unnoticed. Luke you are a great captain! We felt like we were in great hands all week. Your table setting and bar tending skills were also great! Can't wait to get back to Peter Island, Cooper Island, The Baths, Bitter End, Anegada, Cane Garden Bay, Jost and Norman Island aboard Azuria!

January 5th - 12th, 2024

Kristen and Captain Luke,

Thank you so much for everything. This was the perfect 40th birthday trip and you both made it so special. Kristen somehow you managed to cook me my favorite dishes multiple times and each one was phenomenal. You are such an amazing team - calm, organized, talented and kind. You allowed us to feel safe and took care of us so that we could disconnect from reality and reconnect with some of our oldest and dearest friends. It was a true luxury to be able to experience this with you. Thank you again for sharing the BVI and Azuria with us. We will never forget it. Best start to 40 (and 2024 for David) I could ask for.

Love,

Sara and David

(P.S. Thank you of my Taylor Swift birthday. The cake was perfection, as were all the other details. You sure know how to make a girl feel special!)

Luke and Kristen,

Than you so much for your hospitality. The care and planning you put into our trip shows at every step. From the route and activities, to the meals, dining setups, placement of towels and toiletries, everything was perfect. The two of you make a great time, which is wonderful to be around. Luke, your experience and steadiness made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip, which allowed us to really relax and enjoy everything. Kristen, you are are incredible chef. Your meal planning was spot on at every stop. I was such a relief to not have to think about food and preparing it. 2023 was a hard year for us. Due to that, we almost didn't come on this trip. I'm so glad that I did. Thank you for everything. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and hope that it will set a better start to 2024. I enjoyed getting to know you two, next time you pass through Denver please give us a ring. I wish you both all the best.

-Karly and Talbot

Dear Kristen and Luke,

I have no words to express the way this trip has rejuvenated ours; our relationships with friends and spouses, our mental health, our appreciation for nature and this beautiful world we are so lucky to experience. You were the most welcoming and knowledgeable hosts we could have hoped for. The only negative I can think of is that it will be hard to enjoy these islands any other way. Thank you for all you have given us this last week and for sharing a piece of your journeys with us. I truly hope we can do this again with you all someday. Until then, know you will always be a safe harbor in our hearts.

All of our gratitude,

Jen and Joe

December 27, 2023 - January 3rd, 2024 BVI

Kristen and Luke,

People may forget what you say- they remember forever how you made them feel. You made my family feel so special as you welcomed us into your life on the Azuria. The care and detail of every aspect of this trip made the days sparkle. I haven't heard my adult children laugh and giggle so much in quite some time! (Tubing on the WOW Weiner dog!) The food was exquisite, every meal was a sensory delight. Kristen, we'll look for your cookbook and be carried back to days on the Azuria (please publish one) - every meal was the "best one ever!" All best to you both, come see us on the Carolina coast. Happy 2024!

-Eileen and John

Luke and Kristen,

Thank you so much for a wonderful week full of great memories, adventures and enjoyment. We loved the water sports, sailing, and fantastic food. You two gave us such a wonderful introduction to the BVI! Wishing you a great 2024!

This truly was unforgettable! Kristen, your cooking and conversation was a pure joy. Luke, thank you for the countless joyrides on the tube and wiener dog. Have a wonderful 2024.

-Maddie and Drew

Thank you so much for all the incredible fun as we finished out 2023 and rang in 2024. I loved all the lovely conversations with Kristen, and marvelous time on the dinghy with Luke. I enjoyed all the food and the cooking tips from Kristen, as well as the reading suggestions from Luke. Thank you for such a great time. Have a wonderful 2024!

-Kaitlyn

It really was the most amazing adventure. The knowledge you two possess about these places gave us a holiday that was unforgettable. Thanks so much for everything.

December 16th- 22, 2023 BVI

Dear Luke and Kristen,

We feel lucky that we were able to book this amazing BVI vacation without a ton of lead time- it was meant to be! The relaxation and recharge were exactly what we needed. The expert guidance of the area, the fun activities offered, the delicious food, the great ambiance set at each meal, the friendly conversation and so much more made for a wonderful vacation. Thank you also for your flexibility in accommodating our daughter's pre BVI injury. You still found ways and places for her to have fun. We made some fantastic memories this trip as a family, and we thank you for making that possible. We hope you have a very Merry Christmas!

-Ema and Fouad

Thank you so much for the amazing experience, from the joy rides on the dinghy, the tubing, snorkeling suggestions and so much more. I truly appreciate it and I'm so grateful I was able to have such a great time, even though I was injured. Thank you so much!

-Kimi

Thank you so much for this incredible vacation that I will never forget. You guys always made sure that we had everything we need and I am very grateful. Luke, I loved it when you took us out on the dinghy and played music. Kristen, your meals were incredible! The whole trip, after I ate your first meal, I was looking forward to the food. You made me feel right at home when we were laughing together.

-Nina

Thank you both so much for everything you did to make this trip fun, relaxing, and memorable. The food was delicious, I loved chatting with you guys, the dinghy joy rides and tubing were amazing. Thank you for the local knowledge on snorkeling. I really, really enjoyed this trip, and a large part of that was your kindness and hospitality. Thank you and Happy Holidays!

" Luke and Kristen,

This was the trip of a lifetime - everything we have dreamed about and more. This was the BEST food and service we have ever experienced (and we have seen a lot!) The excitement we had each night to review the chart gave us anticipation for the next adventure. Equally as exciting was the next meal. Truly, each was better than we could have imagined. Kristen - you have a true gift that should be shared with the world and we are so fortunate to have gotten to experience your gift. Keep dreaming and experimenting! Luke - your sunset timing was impeccable and your knowledge and skill made us trust you inherently. You bring joy to the world and we can't wait to come back!

Alisa and Jeff"

"This was the best trip of a lifetime. From the amazing top of the line Chef, the food was amazing, to the Captain that brought us the most beautiful views. Thank ya'll for making sure we has all we needed. Kristen and Luke make an amazing pair to work together to make everything so smooth. That made my stay feel like a warm family feeling and family is my number one priority. This was the first long vacation I have been on that I wanted to stay, not go home early. I want to thank Kristen and Luke for the warm welcome and hospitality the whole stay. We will see you again.

William, Tammy, Jeffery, Dreama, Bobby and Angie."

Azuria Review October 29th - November 4th, 2023

" Kristen and Luke,

Thank your making our honeymoon so unforgettable. Dreaming about this trip got us through a lot of stressful wedding planning and somehow even then we managed to underestimate how incredible our experience would be. We appreciate you making us feel so at home on the Azuria, sharing your joy for sailing with us and for keeping us stuffed with food that rivals the best we've had in NYC. We loved getting to know you both as people beyond our crew and hope to see you in New York at some point. We're already plotting our return and can't imagine sailing with anyone else. See you soon!

With Love,

Meg and Dylan"

July 3 - 9, 2023 BVI

Kristen and Luke,

Thank you for a memorable first catamaran experience and trip to the BVI. You all make such a great team and were excellent readers for all our needs and exceeded all expectations. From satisfying every palette for each one of us and keeping all of our excursions to everyone’s comfort level, we could not have asked for better. I’m excited to try to recreate some of our favorite meals and drinks at home. We hope to return for another adventure with you all and will surely share your names with our friends and family looking for a firstclass catamaran experience. Thanks again.

Ross, Ashley, Mallory, Cole and Clay

June 18 - 24, 2023 BVI

Kristen and Luke,

Thanks for making our exploration of the BVI the trip of a lifetime. Your hospitality is beyond reproach. The meals were fabulous and seemed to build on each other in exquisiteness. I can't imagine a better boat in the BVI. Again, thanks!! I hate for this trip to end.

We had such wonderful time on the Azuria. You two made us feel so welcome and safe. You both taught us amazing new things and opened our eyes to new adventures. Of course the food was AMAZING! I pray God continues blessing you. We hope to see you again soon.

Jim and Staci

Kristen and Luke,

Words are not enough to express our gratitude for such a wonderful week and first trip to the BVI. This trip definitely exceeded my expectations and will be the first of many more to come. Kristen your food was amazing at every meal! You are very talented and I'm happy we were here to experience your talents. Luke did a remarkable job of keeping us in good weather, great spot selections and our coolers stocked. We look forward to sailing with the both of you again.

Robyn and Larry

Kristen and Luke,

Thank you for a memorable week. You make everything look effortless. We appreciate all of your hard work. We enjoyed all of the incredible meals and I will be sharing photos with friends. Luke, you are a great captain and I enjoyed all of the places you took us to. We hope to visit the BVI in the future and I hope our paths cross again.

Greg and Christine

May 20 2023 BVI

Thank you so much for making Chris' 60th birthday celebration the best ever! You were so gracious and patient with our quirky and changing needs (and Chris' constant questions!) Kristen, your cooking was absolutely amazing! Everything was soooo good and you met all of our varying needs without missing a beat!
Luke, you took care of all of our needs from sailing to all of the snorkeling and water activities and shuttling us back and forth. And there was always Diet Coke and ice. You both work very hard to make everything perfect and it was. You've helped us create memories that will last our lives.

Chris and Pamela

May 1st 2023 BVI

Thank you so much for making this our trip of lifetime. Your hospitality and elegant meals were second to none.

Until we meet again... Dave, Sandy, Jeff and Karen.

April 29th, 2023 BVI

Thank you for starting off my 'golden years' in the best way possible. You took such great care of my brothers and I that it will be difficult to go through our days without your help and amazing cooking. All of us appreciate the laughs and great conversation as well as the great dinghy travel music. We won't forget this trip and it will be very difficult to top.

4-10-23 - 4-17-23 BVI

Kristen and Luke,
You two have been the highlight of this trip! Thank you for pouring your hearts into making every day memorable for us. This has been our dream trip become reality and we are so grateful to both of you for making it so special.
Though this is goodbye for us here in BVI for now, we very much look forward to taking care of both of you in NYC someday! We cannot wait to return to this paradise one day too. All the very best and much success to you both. We know you will go far in life!

Karin and Andres

Dear Kristen and Luke,
I want to start with WOW!!! What a phenomenal way to take care of us. I love everything that both of you do and how you do it. This has been a memorable experience for the ages. It was awesome to spend time with both of you and learning so much just by watching you in action, and I wanted to thank you for answering all of my questions. We were very lucky to have such a great crew. Millions of thank yous to both of you. With love and appreciation.
Alejo

Dear Kristen and Luke,

Thank you again and again for taking such good care of us this week. Having you with us made this trip memorable for all the best reasons! I have to say that the first thing that comes to my mind is the food! And I think this will be the one thing I will remember always! We could taste the love and care that Kristen put into every meal she cooked for us. You two make such a great team and we wish you all the best.

THANKS!!! Chris

What a wonderful trip! We loved every moment of it. And, oh, the food! We have not had so many continuously enjoyable meals in ages, if ever! Thank you so much for accommodating my eating habits, including a great variety of local fish! Luke, excellent seamanship, you are a top-notch captain. Wonderful assortments of drinks and other libations. We wish you both the very best!

Warmly, Walter and Gail

Fabulous trip! Kristen and Luke rock! Azuria was always clean, Luke made every effort to keep us all safe and that we had access to all the BVI had to offer. Kristen tirelessly produced fabulous meals, and took time to share local knowledge about the islands we visited. I cannot imagine a kinder and more thoughtful crew. As for the BVI, spectacular.

Peggy

Fabulous beyond expectation. The Azuria is extremely comfortable. Kristen and Luke, very knowledgeable and personable. Kristen's meals were gorgeous to look at and delicious to eat - each meal surprised and delighted.

Kristen and Luke, Impossible to know where to begin. Is it the fabulous morning swims? Is it the exquisite meals, beautiful to see and incomparable to taste? The ice management? The creative cocktails? The sense of being well cared for? The spectacular scenery? The sublime sunsets? The synergy of your teamwork, (inspiring!) the thorough local knowledge? What we have here is...BEST VACATION EVER! We came as guests,we leave as family.

Love, Sarah, Erik, Alanna, Peter, Jeannie and Mike

February 2023 Measured Debauchery Team Review of Azuria

Dear Kristen and Luke,
On behalf of the Measured Debauchery team that sailed with you in the BVI on the Azuria 2/25-3/4/2023, I want to express again our heartfelt thanks for making our sail with you the trip of a lifetime for all of us. You took great care of us and made sure that all of our needs were met while on board. From the great itinerary mapped out by Captain Luke to the 5 star meals prepared for Kristen, this trip exceeded all of our expectations. The food that Kristen prepared for us at each meal and happy hour was some of the best any of us have ever had and Luke's special cocktails were amazing!

You kept the ship in amazing shape while on board and even cleaned our rooms every day, which we were not expecting. All of the cabins were in great shape and were very comfortable. You made sure that everything was well-stocked on board, from the food and snacks to alcohol and drinks.

We were so impressed by your knowledge of the area and local cuisine which Kristen helped prepare for us each day. You paid great attention to our preferences expressed in advance of the trip and even had a great birthday celebration for one of our group that will be hard to beat. Your fun, kindness and hospitality were amazing and we feel like we all have made two great friends in the BVIs.

We were all able to relax and enjoy the ride because you made our trip a truly luxury experience we will never forget. We would highly recommend a trip on the Azuria with Captain Luke and First Mate Kristen to anyone we know. Any other trips we take will be compared to this one and will be difficult to surpass. Maybe we will just sail with you every year!

Sincerely,
Jackie and Steve

From broker: I just wanted to think for taking such great care of the our clients! They had an amazing time. I've added their review below.

"We went to spend a quality family vacation, just the 5 of us. The trip met everyone one of our expectations. From the boat, to the sites, to the crew, and the food - nothing fell short of exceptional. Kristen and Luke consistently went above and beyond to meet our every need and even to anticipate needs we did not know we had (i.e., cocktails at 3pm? Run over to Willie T's at 9pm?). It was a bucket list vacation and the memories we have will last a life time."

January 2023

Kristen and Luke,

Thank you so much for a wonderful sailing vacation aboard Azuria. Everything was first class, the food, the itinerary, the service, and the excursions. Thank you again for being the best hosts. We look forward to visiting again because of your hospitality.

New Year 2022 -23

No better way to ring in 2023 than with Luke and Kristen on Azuria! This trip was a year delayed (thank you COVID!) but sooo worth the wait. With three busy late teen/early 20's daughters, it is a rare moment for us to spend quality time together and Luke and Kristen added to the fun. This was for sure a check on all our bucket lists and we'd all add five stars next to it. From the scenery to the food (Incredible!), we couldn't have asked for a better way to spend seven days. It is tight living and Kristen and Luke, you welcomed us into your home and thusly, made us feel right at home with you. Wishing you many more successful sails on Azuria and throughout your lives. We will never forget our week with you!

Christmas Week 2022

Thank you so much for an incredible vacation and Christmas. We rarely get to spend time the five of us all together and you both made it extra special. Between Kristen's incredible and thoughtful cuisine and Luke's perfectly British sense of humor, plus expert captainship - we had an unforgettable trip. It's hard to pick a favorite meal or island, because all of them were so memorable. These are the trips you don't ever forget, and you two made it possible. We're so grateful you shared your Christmas with us, until next time! Thank you x 100,000.

December 2022 - 1

We have been so extremely blessed to have met such amazing people to share our mom's dream vacation with! Couldn't have asked for a better crew (and so patient!) Kristen's food was nothing short of PHENOMENAL! We will miss it all so much. DJ Captain Luke's talent will be missed as well. Thank you!

November 2022 - 3

Our time aboard Azuria could not have been more perfect! I can't think of anything that didn't exceed my expectations. Luke and Kristen are experts at their crafts and are wonderful hosts (and humans.) Thank you for making this special celebration one will will always remember and cherish.

November 2022 - 2

Amazing!!! Kristen the food was amazing, divine and fabulous! Luke we could not have asked for a better captain! Everything was absolutely perfect, from the smooth sails, incredible itinerary, super fun toys and expert sailing lessons for our daughter. Thank you! You were both so kind and we cannot wait to come back! Thank you for everything!

November 2022

BEST TRIP EVER! As global travelers we thought we had experienced it all. But, after spending a week with Luke and Kristen on Azuria, it changed us forever. Kristen's culinary skills are on another level. Every bite kept us craving more. She built a menu around our dietary restrictions that couldn't have been better planned. Luke's captain skills, decision making and emphasis on safety had us all way more comfortable that we ever thought we would be. His knowledge of the islands is astounding. His humor is contagious. They couldnt be a better team. The way they work is so fluid and smooth. We were always taken care of and felt so welcomed and connected with them. Their kindness and desire to make this trip the most amazing ever was felt throughout. Azuria was gorgeous! Meticulously clean. Comfortable cabins and all the toys we ever wanted. The fly bridge was awesome to sit there, listen to music and stare off into the horizon. Just amazing! We will never forget this and look forward to doing it again. Thank you for everything!

November 2022

It was a trip of a lifetime, with Kristen and Luke taking exceptional care of all of our needs and wants! The boat was well equipped, and very comfortable for the size of our group. Kristen worked magic in her small galley; the food was EXCEPTIONAL -- every meal, including a few she had to accommodate for dietary restrictions -- and comparable to any fine dining experience in the US. Luke knows the Caribbean and took us to some beautiful beaches and snorkel sites, and directed us to fun beach beach bars for afternoon drinks. Both were safety conscious and accommodating regarding the itinerary. Together, Kristen and Luke shared their knowledge of the area... interesting stories and history of the islands, pointed out sea life, etc. "

Our trip was FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Luke and Kristen were amazing - 5 star service and food!!

The boat was perfect size - well stocked with food and any other essentials - sunscreen and bug spray were all supplied as well. They greeted us with champagne and non stop service, attention and good food the entire time, even offering to go on a hike to ensure we didn't get lost. Luke and Kristen were flexible, full of knowledge and always pointing out things that were interesting or recommended places to go. All arrangements and pre planning were done with lots of detail. There is nothing that we would have wanted to happen differently - it was a 10/10 experience.

July 2021

There are multiple adages that hold true for this vacation. "Good things come to those who wait." "Third times a charm" And hopefully for you, "we saved the best for last." Bob has dreamt - and talked - about chartering a catamaran in the Virgin Islands for 45 years. We had to cancel in 2017 due to the hurricanes and again in 2020 due to the pandemic. Finally we had our chance to board Azuria and help you close out your charter season. We were pinching ourselves the entire trip down to USVI - "was this finally happening?!?!" - and kept having "pinch me" Moments throughout the entire week. Thanks for the expert navigation that helped keep MJ comfortable on the water, the delicious meals that kept us full and super content all week, the great snorkel spots that led to "National Geographic" moments and the sailing experience that felt fitting of "the Pirates of the Caribbean" soundtrack. From our own Capt. Bob getting a turn at the help to Ash fulfilling his dream of landing a tarpon on the fly to Marcia's many luxurious painkiller induced naps on the bow, this week felt a million miles from home/work and the difficult last pandemic year. Thank you so much for your hospitality and making Azuria our home away from home. Our shared family photo album has nearly 700 photos after the week and we're leaving with as many special memories. We hope you have a great off-season and wedding. Please look us up if/when you get to Charleston.

July 2021

This has truly been a trip of a lifetime! You have done a beautiful job of making us feel at home in your home. The meals were amazing, and the excursions, snorkeling, and yoga were perfect. Thanks for putting up with all of us and Timmy! We will always remember the fun and friendship. Come see us anytime!

July 2021

What an unforgettable trip of a lifetime for us with our great friends. Thank you for the unbelievable patience with us - we're a lot! The "firsts" that a 60 year old got to experience - snorkeling, especially - I love it and will continue thanks to you! We cannot express how fabulous the meals were - seriously we have never had meals that wonderful anywhere! We'll love making Britt's recipes! We wish you a wonderful wedding and future together. Keep In touch and visit us anytime.

June 2021

Thank you for such a wonderful vacation! The food, the drinks, the boat, the excursions, the hospitality, the conversation... it was such a great week! The boys loved it. I'll remember what Harrison said on the hike that he loves the trip but also you both. Such a memorable experience for them and for us. We shall return!

I had so much fun on Azuria with you guys. Snorkeling, kayaking, and the weiner dog were so much fun. The pina coladas and the food and desserts were amazing. I will miss them just like how I will miss you guys!

I had a great time with y'all this week. My favorite part of the trip was the weiner dog. I really enjoyed the food as well and tried some new things! Thank you for everything, you guys are great!.

This has been an incredible week! A dream come true and we cannot thank you both enough for everything! Mike, you are the best snorkel guide ever! And Britt, the food, especially the desserts, were amazing! The boys had so much fun and we made some great family memories with y'all that will last a lifetime. The boys all agree (and that doesn't happen often! :) ) that we need to do this again! Best wishes to you both on your upcoming wedding! Hope to sail with y'all again!

July 2021

This was by far the best vacation ever. You made everything amazing with your kindness, hospitality, cuisine, professionalism, boating skills and knowledge of the area. This has replenished our soul and friendships of 30+ years. You truly have a gift and we are so lucky to have been apart of it. We wish you a wonderful adventure and marriage and hopefully you can be just as happy and ab-normal in 30 years as we are ... haha. Please know you are welcome to visit anytime!! Much love + happiness.

June 2021

This week has been everything we all needed. We are reminded of the importance of slowing down, re-grouping, and feeling revived. Y'all were the perfect crew / hosts to allow us all to do this. Azuria and the USVI was the perfect setting. What can I say about y'alls hospitality?? You both were on step ahead of our every need. Drinks, snacks, delicious meals, and desserts. We have felt totally spoiled. We hope our paths cross again :) Until then -- cheers and best wishes for a wonderful life together. Babs, Jerry, Charlin, Mike, Steve & Jenn

June 2021

We are so pleased we chose to spend the week here celebrating our anniversary. Easy to settle in on the boat. The food was over-the-top excellent! We went to wonderful little coves and had plenty of time to explore via under water and on land. Amazing photo opportunities everywhere we went. Britt and Mike were an exceptional team. They treated us like family. This excursion more than exceeded our expectations. I'm certain that there is no way this can ever be topped. Love + best wishes!

May 2021

We had the most perfect vacation EVER! Thanks to you two. Perfection! The meals, the fun, the weather, the perfect selection of beautiful coves. Attentiveness! I can't say enough. We will come back often! Loved it!

Best charter ever. Thank you so much for giving us the perfect week. Until next time.

May 2021

What an incredible week! I didn't know what to expect being on a boat for a week. You made the week amazing. Thank you for sharing all your special favorite spots. Can't wait to return. Looking forward to meeting up on the Chesapeake!

Thank you both so much for the gift of this week. These trips always seem to come at the perfect time -- when life at home starts to get overwhelming or stressful. This place is so peaceful and beautiful that its impossible not to re-center, reflect, and find that inner peace. It was amazing getting to know you both and being witness, even just for a short time, to your beautiful life together. So cheers to the next trip where we'll toast to this magical place and to the newlyweds! Love, the Millers

April 2021

Um - Cool Ride Dudes! We couldn't have done it without you! No really, it was a blast! Thanks for the greatest vacay EVER! - Mike

This was an indulgent, fantastic vacation! Thank you for your hospitality and kindness. You guys are awesome! I hope we can venture with you again in the future. Pam

April 2021

Our trip to the USVI on the Azuria was fantastic! Could not recommend this trip enough. The yacht was was comfortable, clean and well maintained. The scenery was magnificent! The BEST part was our crew!!! Hands down, Captain Mike and Chef Brittany surpassed our expectations each and every meal. They went above and beyond to deliver 5 star plus meals, cocktails and service. They even decorated the yacht and baked a birthday cake to celebrate one of our friend's birthdays. Truly one of the most relaxing and enjoyable vacations ever!! If you are wondering whether you should book this yacht and crew..... stop thinking about it and just do it!! You will not be sorry.

April 2021

Attention to detail in every aspect.
Michael and Brittany treated us like royalty and catered to our needs every day from 7am until we tucked ourselves in bed each night for 7 nights. They work with a sense of responsibility while enjoying what they do and proud to share their work with you, whether it was a fabulous meal with a Michelin style presentation, cocktails with flair, positioning you on incredible sea life while snorkling, sharing each bay and its history, learning about the boat, I could go on and on about all the great things we experienced. The best advice is for you to experience it yourself .
Thank you again!

April 2021

Mike and Britt!

There aren't words for how grateful I am to introducing us to life on the water. I am officially hooked! Cant wait to come back with adults for another fun week :) I really appreciate all of your patience with a single mom of three crazy high energy kids, and one insanely picky eater! Thank you for showing us all of your favorite bays and ordering the dolphins, turtles and stingrays! Love, the Kirsh family

March 2021

Britt & Mike,

We cant thank you enough for such a wonderful week. Everything was incredible (especially all the delicious meals!) you helped our family make so many new memories - we cant wait to come back next year and hear all about your wedding!

Thank you so much for an amazing week aboard Azuria. We enjoyed every minute in the beautiful USVI. Your gracious hospitality made everything delightful. Definitely one for the record books. Many Thanks

Mike and Britt,
This is a trip I will never forget. Every second of it was a blast. All of the meals were super yummy. Congrats on your engagement. Can’t wait to come back down. #Best Trip Bridget

Thank you guys so much for showing us gorgeous locations. Blown away by the natural beauty here! You have both been so incredibly kind and if you ever come to Charlotte you have an open invitation to stay at my home!

February 2021

Britt & Michael ,
Thank you for an unforgettable week in which you went above and beyond. Not only did we get tarpon, snorkeling, turtles and more, but you also made a 30th birthday, new pregnancy, and new engagement extra special. Thanks again!

January 2021

Mike and Britt,
Thank you so much for an amazing few days showing us around the USVI’s. We loved all the snorkeling spots you took us to, the beautiful spots and the incredible food. You made this trip unforgetable and we will be forever grateful for meeting you both. Enjoy your time here and we can’t wait to come back. Morgan and Clare

Schlax charter 16th to 22nd November 2019

"We just got back from a week long charter aboard the Azuria with Captains Mark and Sally and it was amazing! We don’t have the words to adequately describe how fantastic the experience was.
The Azuria is a beautiful boat and a great place to call home for a week. She is comfortable and pristine with plenty of space and toys to spread out, relax and enjoy the surroundings. Surroundings which include sun filled days, white sand beaches, and beautiful blue waters- in other words a picture post card.
That is just the backdrop for Mark and Sally to work their magic! They are warm and welcoming hosts that put us at ease from day one. Their hospitality, attention to detail and mixology and culinary skills have to be experienced to be believed. They had us spoiled. It was like eating in the best restaurants in town every night!! This was meant to be a once in a lifetime trip for us, but this was such an amazing adventure, we can’t imagine not doing it again!!" 😍

Early April

Clark and I are back in Houston; Katia and Austin are in Atlanta. Before I jump into the rat race of life, I wanted to thank you for a beautiful time.
You certainly went overboard in your efforts to make sure everyone was happy aboard the Azuria. The special attention to individual tastes at meals, the work you did to tow the children around on the tube, the fantastic birthday celebration, the emphasis on safety did not go unnoticed. All four of us appreciated the chart talks and the meal planning sessions. While we were in the total relaxation mode, you were working hard behind the scenes. Thank you.
My most precious memories of the trip were the intimate discussions we were able to have with the grandkids. We had lots of time. It was a joy.
Austin’s mother reported that the last thing he said when he went to bed on Friday night was, “I wish I was still on the catamaran.”

Best wishes,
Anne

9 to 16 March 2019

Our family just returned from another fantastic week sailing on the Azuria with Captain Mark and Sally. This trip was better than last years, and we were blow away by last years trip. Captain Mark and Sally are very experienced sailors and very knowledgeable about the BVI’s. Our family enjoys the daily “chart chat” with Captain Mark and the history/ trivia about the island we are located at or will be sailing to. Everyday was a new adventure and Captain Mark took us to new areas of the BVI’s we had not seen on our previous trip.
The food to say the least, was amazing. Sally is a talented chef and each delicious meal was thoughtfully prepared and artfully presented. The Azuria is comfortable and very well maintained. Simply put, It was the best family vacation we’ve ever been on, and Mark and Sally’s hospitality has a lot to do with that. We are already looking forward to our next sail in 2020!

Ferris family,

Christmas 2018

Dear Mark & Sally
This was a Chess vacation not to be topped! From the beautifully appointed vessel, masterfully charted course ( accommodating lost luggage!), activities-o-plenty ( you know its a good trip if you can tucker out Connor!), a cocktail speciality each night, to the most truly amazing meals, dancing the night away with you at The Wonky Dog, the perfect Christmas day in Anegada completed with Christmas Crackers and Sally's beef tenderloin treat - YUM!
You have quickly found your way into out hearts most of all. All of your efforts, grace and hard work are so appreciated and never to be forgotten.
Celebrating Christmas and our 25th Anniversary with you on AZURIA was so special. Thank you, thank you! A toast to you for a happy and safe future ahead- "If you can't clink then wink" ;)
All our love.
Taylor,Charlotte, Connor, Catie, Phoebe and Bennett

November 2018

This was a bucket list trip with high expectations. It wildly exceeded all of them! The itinerary they put together perfectly matched our interests (secluded anchorages - snorkeling - fruity rum drinks). What really surprised me were the meals. That is not why we went on this trip - but WOW - everyday something else that was incredible - and every meal. The rhythm of each day was perfect - and Mark & Sally were always upbeat, cheerful, helpful, attentive, and busy. I cannot recommend them and the Sail Azuria experience more highly. When we pulled into Nanny Cay at the end of the week - the comradarie they had with other crews - and the high regard other crews have of them - was evident. Who better than that to know that with Mark and Sally - you're sailing with the best!

Oh, and the boat was spotless, maintained, ship-shape, and spacious. They are both licensed captains and they know what they're doing.

I have been very lucky and have spent over a dozen weeks sailing on Catamarans over the last several years. One of my best experiences was spending three weeks this season (2018) on a Cat called Azuria. From the moment I boarded, I could tell this was going to be one of the best experiences I have had sailing. The yacht was so clean and Mark and Sally our crew had paid attention to every detail prior to us even coming on board. Once on board we learned all our safety things and the fun began instantly. Every anchorage to every cocktail to every snack and even every meal was incredible and we could not have needed anything more. Mark and Sally run an amazing operation. They make your vacation relaxing, fun and you learn something new each and every day. I would highly recommend sailing with them for the ultimate sailing charter experience. I will be back in 2019 and if you are considering a crewed Yacht vacation get on Azuria with Mark and Sally, it's superb!! - Jeff

People often ask me why we always seem to return year after year to the BVI. Is it the Sun, the Water, the Beaches, or the Sailing.
But the truth is it’s THE TWO OF YOU.
You have become friends, GOOD FRIENDS and we totally enjoy your company. We love the way you make us ffel so comfortable.
We were both glad we were able to bring our family, to understand why we just love to be with YOU TWO, now they know

March 1-8, 2017 - on previous yacht Viking Dream

I am following the questions on your Post Charter Review to provide you feedback on our recent charter on the Viking Dream.

Let me preface my review by saying this sailing adventure was one of, or maybe the best vacation I've ever taken. Sailing on the Viking Dream was beyond all my expectations.

The Viking Dream is an exquisite boat. Every inch of it is immaculate. It is Mark and Sally's home and they take great pride in it and it shows. The boat is spacious and extremely comfortable. I loved swinging in the hammock chair or lounging in the bean bag chairs and of course sunning on the deck. The state rooms are very good size (for boat living) and are appointed with plenty of cabinets, lockers and shelves to accommodate all of your gear.You want for nothing on the Viking Dream. Sally and Mark make sure you have everything and are always comfortable. Truly, we were treated like royalty. It was the most wonderful experience. On board the Viking Dream are all the water toys and equipment as advertised. My sisters, mom and I had a ball kayaking and snorkeling and tubing and paddle boarding. (There was even more to do like fishing and windsurfing, but we opted for more relaxing!)

Mark was great with making suggestions for activities and getting us to the best places to do them. He was always ready and willing to get our equipment ready for us.

Mark is a captain extraordinaire. Besides catering to his guests, he sails the Viking Dream with amazing skill and ease. Sally is his first mate. Together they work like a fine tuned machine, in tandem, seamlessly sailing and managing the boat.With Sally and Mark at the helm, you don't have a care in the world.

Sally is a chef beyond compare. She treated us to 3 meals a day ( and appetizers at cocktail hour) that dazzled both my taste buds and my eyes. Each was an exquisite masterpiece worthy of a photo in a cookbook. Day in and day out we were awed by Sally's decadent creations. Additionally, Sally considered all of our food preferences. I LOVED every dish she prepared (and was stuffed at the end of each meal.)

With 100% confidence I would recommend sailing with Mark and Sally on the Viking Dream. ( I already have!) If I ever have the opportunity to charter a boat again I would only sail on the Viking Dream.

Very truly yours,

Linda T.

Dear Mark and Sally

We had a WONDERFUL WEEK!

We have been pampered beyond our expectations. The three meals each day, and everything else have been fabulous.

The presentation of the food was outstanding. We appreciated and admire the work you do for your guests. Having sailed ourselves before, we know what effort it takes to make everything work.

"Just back from another tremendous vacation on Viking Dream. The difference was this was our first trip with other couples, sans children, making the Captian's poison of the day even more enjoyable and the nights under the stars romantic (trampolines are fun). Mark and Sally's knowledge of bays meant that we not only had a fabulous lunch at Deadman's Beach with a steel drum band one day, a few nights later they found a secluded bay with just one other boat (during the peak of the charter season). We found so many different fish, coral, and fans, all with incredible colors, at the snorkeling spots they took us too we spent cocktail hour going through the books and talking about what we'd seen. I've always loved Sally's cooking and it was particularly delicous not having to limit for child's preferences. I love taking the helm of Viking Dream as we cruise down the channel, all enjoying the spectacular views. A truly enjoyable vacation."

November 2016, Multi repeat guests the Ditges wrote a fabulous poem! (previous yacht Viking Dream)

here once was a yacht named Viking
In which Mark and Sally took a liking.
They escaped from the Swan to the Boat we are on.

One day we went sailing, when the winds were prevailing;
The spinnaker was raised, to all awe and praise!
At nine knots we were cruising, no one got a bruising, as we were all boozing!

Captain Mark led us on snorkelling excursions, often in places with real Fat Virgins.
Saw lots of coral & pretty fish, however Turtles were amiss.

On Saba Rock what a disgrace, when the Tarpon splashed Lauras face.
Back to the boat we went,
Viking Vibrations were spent!

Our palates were teased with all meals we were pleased.
Captains poison by Mark, includes stormy and dark.
The Admiral in the galley, creating dishes by Sally.

The Dreams been visited by Tom and Pete, and other guests that often repeat.
Who all try not to spill wine on the seat.
The red all soaked in not sure whether Cab or Zin,
But Tom and Petes napkins held it all in!:)

Pirate jokes were told they never get old!
The Trivia flies, Captain Mark is so wise.
We remember not one, so when we are back for more fun, booze and sun,
Repeating questions will fool everyone!

Sally won twice at the game of dice.
Captain called foul, saying it wasnt nice.

We were all the crew with nothing to do,
But to try hard to drink all of the brew.

All hail to the Queen,
This trip was a DREAM!
If you are reading this you know what we mean!!

An original poem by:
Laura, Jeff, Robin, and Bill

We had a great time on Viking Dream. The boat was immaculate at all times. Sally's meals were delicious and beautifully plated. Mark was great both in educating all of us with his daily trivia questions and mapping out our daily journey, as well as carting the kids around endlessly for water sports. My mom enjoyed every second of the trip.

Thank you for all your help,
Laura

Its difficult to describe on a page how incredible the experience was that you provided us this week. The boat was beautiful and spotless and extremely cozy and comfortable.
The food was so delicious that we cannot fathom how you could create it in a galley.
The sights and activities were so much fun that we cant decide what our favourites were.The nature walk with Mark? The Hot Dog? Snorkelling? Cow Wreck Beach?
With your indepth knowledge of the area, history, nature and sailing; every experience was that much more meaningful and FUN.
Meeting the two of you, and hearing your stories was also a joy. Not only did we feel spoiled beyond words, we also felt incredible safe in your well organised, thoughtful and careful hands.

Thank you so very much for everything and please do visit us in Rhode Island

Thank you for giving us a very memorable trip. From the time we stepped on board you created a wonderful, fun and family like experience. You led us to the best spots to snorkel, best for overnight and best for seeing the beautiful islands.

We cant imagine doing this with any other boat. We cant thank you enough for our wonderful vacation. We wont have another Rum Punch, Painkiller or even a touch of rum without these memories!

Kelly & Mark
Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Wonderful sailing, snorkeling and friendship in between 3 gourmet meals a day. Plus appetizers that we often mistook for the meal itself!

Just a perfect week. We hope to see Captain Cocktail and Admiral Sally next year for another adventure. That gives us about 12 months to work off the excess!

Vacations don't get any better than this! We will miss you Mark & Sally.

Azuria was always clean, Luke made every effort to keep us all safe and that we had access to all the BVI had to offer. Kristen tirelessly produced fabulous meals, and took time to share local knowledge about the islands we visited. I cannot imagine a kinder and more thoughtful crew. As for the BVI, spectacular. <br /> <br /> Peggy<br /> <br /> Fabulous beyond expectation. The Azuria is extremely comfortable. Kristen and Luke, very knowledgeable and personable.

You took great care of us and made sure that all of our needs were met while on board. From the great itinerary mapped out by Captain Luke to the 5 star meals prepared for Kristen, this trip exceeded all of our expectations. The food that Kristen prepared for us at each meal and happy hour was some of the best any of us have ever had and Luke's special cocktails were amazing!<br /> <br /> You kept the ship in amazing shape while on board and even cleaned our rooms every day, which we were not expecting. All of the cabins were in great shape and were very comfortable. You made sure that everything was well-stocked on board, from the food and snacks to alcohol and drinks. <br /> <br /> We were so impressed by your knowledge of the area and local cuisine which Kristen helped prepare for us each day. You paid great attention to our preferences expressed in advance of the trip and even had a great birthday celebration for one of our group that will be hard to beat. Your fun, kindness and hospitality were amazing and we feel like we all have made two great friends in the BVIs. <br /> <br /> We were all able to relax and enjoy the ride because you made our trip a truly luxury experience we will never forget. We would highly recommend a trip on the Azuria with Captain Luke and First Mate Kristen to anyone we know. Any other trips we take will be compared to this one and will be difficult to surpass.

Luke's captain skills, decision making and emphasis on safety had us all way more comfortable that we ever thought we would be. His knowledge of the islands is astounding. His humor is contagious. They couldnt be a better team. The way they work is so fluid and smooth. We were always taken care of and felt so welcomed and connected with them.

Luke knows the Caribbean and took us to some beautiful beaches and snorkel sites, and directed us to fun beach beach bars for afternoon drinks.

"Good things come to those who wait." "Third times a charm" And hopefully for you, "we saved the best for last." Bob has dreamt - and talked - about chartering a catamaran in the Virgin Islands for 45 years. We had to cancel in 2017 due to the hurricanes and again in 2020 due to the pandemic. Finally we had our chance to board Azuria and help you close out your charter season. We were pinching ourselves the entire trip down to USVI - "was this finally happening?!?!" - and kept having "pinch me" Moments throughout the entire week. Thanks for the expert navigation that helped keep MJ comfortable on the water, the delicious meals that kept us full and super content all week, the great snorkel spots that led to "National Geographic" moments and the sailing experience that felt fitting of "the Pirates of the Caribbean" soundtrack. From our own Capt. Bob getting a turn at the help to Ash fulfilling his dream of landing a tarpon on the fly to Marcia's many luxurious painkiller induced naps on the bow, this week felt a million miles from home/work and the difficult last pandemic year. Thank you so much for your hospitality and making Azuria our home away from home. Our shared family photo album has nearly 700 photos after the week and we're leaving with as many special memories.

The rhythm of each day was perfect - and Mark & Sally were always upbeat, cheerful, helpful, attentive, and busy. I cannot recommend them and the Sail Azuria experience more highly.

The yacht was so clean and Mark and Sally our crew had paid attention to every detail prior to us even coming on board. Once on board we learned all our safety things and the fun began instantly. Every anchorage to every cocktail to every snack and even every meal was incredible and we could not have needed anything more. Mark and Sally run an amazing operation.

Sailing on the Viking Dream was beyond all my expectations.<br /> <br /> The Viking Dream is an exquisite boat. Every inch of it is immaculate. It is Mark and Sally's home and they take great pride in it and it shows. The boat is spacious and extremely comfortable. I loved swinging in the hammock chair or lounging in the bean bag chairs and of course sunning on the deck. The state rooms are very good size (for boat living) and are appointed with plenty of cabinets, lockers and shelves to accommodate all of your gear.You want for nothing on the Viking Dream. Sally and Mark make sure you have everything and are always comfortable. Truly, we were treated like royalty. It was the most wonderful experience. On board the Viking Dream are all the water toys and equipment as advertised. My sisters, mom and I had a ball kayaking and snorkeling and tubing and paddle boarding. (There was even more to do like fishing and windsurfing, but we opted for more relaxing!)<br /> <br /> Mark was great with making suggestions for activities and getting us to the best places to do them. He was always ready and willing to get our equipment ready for us.<br /> <br /> Mark is a captain extraordinaire. Besides catering to his guests, he sails the Viking Dream with amazing skill and ease. Sally is his first mate. Together they work like a fine tuned machine, in tandem, seamlessly sailing and managing the boat.With Sally and Mark at the helm, you don't have a care in the world.<br /> <br /> Sally is a chef beyond compare. She treated us to 3 meals a day ( and appetizers at cocktail hour) that dazzled both my taste buds and my eyes. Each was an exquisite masterpiece worthy of a photo in a cookbook. Day in and day out we were awed by Sally's decadent creations. Additionally, Sally considered all of our food preferences. I LOVED every dish she prepared (and was stuffed at the end of each meal.)<br /> <br /> With 100% confidence I would recommend sailing with Mark and Sally on the Viking Dream. ( I already have!) If I ever have the opportunity to charter a boat again I would only sail on the Viking Dream.<br /> <br /> Very truly yours,<br /> <br /> Linda T.";s:11:"yachtGC68P1";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtGC68P2";s:0:"";s:11:"yachtGC68P3";s:0:"";s:14:"yachtGC69Title";s:44:"February 2017 (previous yacht Viking Dream)";s:9:"yachtGC69";s:577:"Mark & Sally<br /> <br /> What a way to ring in my 50th year!

The difference was this was our first trip with other couples, sans children, making the Captian's poison of the day even more enjoyable and the nights under the stars romantic (trampolines are fun). Mark and Sally's knowledge of bays meant that we not only had a fabulous lunch at Deadman's Beach with a steel drum band one day, a few nights later they found a secluded bay with just one other boat (during the peak of the charter season). We found so many different fish, coral, and fans, all with incredible colors, at the snorkeling spots they took us too we spent cocktail hour going through the books and talking about what we'd seen. I've always loved Sally's cooking and it was particularly delicous not having to limit for child's preferences. I love taking the helm of Viking Dream as we cruise down the channel, all enjoying the spectacular views. A truly enjoyable vacation."<br /> - Andrew Z.

Having not previously spent any time on a boat, I was not sure how it would feel like a home. But, almost immediately, it did. We were almost immediately comfortable, at ease, and taking in all the beauty, the quiet, and the elements. And of course, everything the two of you did for us, seemingly all the time, made our comfort and ease possible. Your warm and endless hospitality, your attention to every detail, and the FOOD! I should say the food twice because it was so amazing, the nightly chart readings, the cocktails, and the feeling of being cared for and tended to all the time. Will was always seaworthy, but I feel seaworthy now. Thank you so much, we hope to be back.<br /> <br /> Will and Linda</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-1.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 1' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-1.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-2.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 2' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-2.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-3.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 3' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests24868-3.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> January 13th-20th, 2024 BVI</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Dear Kristen and Captain Luke,<br /> <br /> As we spend our last night with you on Azuria, we remember back to the fantastic time we have had this past week.

This was the perfect 40th birthday trip and you both made it so special. Kristen somehow you managed to cook me my favorite dishes multiple times and each one was phenomenal. You are such an amazing team - calm, organized, talented and kind. You allowed us to feel safe and took care of us so that we could disconnect from reality and reconnect with some of our oldest and dearest friends. It was a true luxury to be able to experience this with you. Thank you again for sharing the BVI and Azuria with us. We will never forget it. Best start to 40 (and 2024 for David) I could ask for. <br /> <br /> Love,<br /> <br /> Sara and David <br /> <br /> (P.S. Thank you of my Taylor Swift birthday. The cake was perfection, as were all the other details. You sure know how to make a girl feel special!) <br /> <br /> Luke and Kristen, <br /> <br /> Than you so much for your hospitality. The care and planning you put into our trip shows at every step. From the route and activities, to the meals, dining setups, placement of towels and toiletries, everything was perfect. The two of you make a great time, which is wonderful to be around. Luke, your experience and steadiness made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the trip, which allowed us to really relax and enjoy everything. Kristen, you are are incredible chef. Your meal planning was spot on at every stop. I was such a relief to not have to think about food and preparing it. 2023 was a hard year for us. Due to that, we almost didn't come on this trip. I'm so glad that I did. Thank you for everything. I thoroughly enjoyed myself, and hope that it will set a better start to 2024. I enjoyed getting to know you two, next time you pass through Denver please give us a ring. I wish you both all the best.<br /> <br /> -Karly and Talbot<br /> <br /> Dear Kristen and Luke,<br /> <br /> I have no words to express the way this trip has rejuvenated ours; our relationships with friends and spouses, our mental health, our appreciation for nature and this beautiful world we are so lucky to experience. You were the most welcoming and knowledgeable hosts we could have hoped for. The only negative I can think of is that it will be hard to enjoy these islands any other way. Thank you for all you have given us this last week and for sharing a piece of your journeys with us. I truly hope we can do this again with you all someday.

Thank you for such a great time. Have a wonderful 2024! <br /> <br /> -Kaitlyn<br /> <br /> It really was the most amazing adventure.

You took great care of us and made sure that all of our needs were met while on board. From the great itinerary mapped out by Captain Luke to the 5 star meals prepared for Kristen, this trip exceeded all of our expectations. The food that Kristen prepared for us at each meal and happy hour was some of the best any of us have ever had and Luke's special cocktails were amazing!<br /> <br /> You kept the ship in amazing shape while on board and even cleaned our rooms every day, which we were not expecting. All of the cabins were in great shape and were very comfortable. You made sure that everything was well-stocked on board, from the food and snacks to alcohol and drinks. <br /> <br /> We were so impressed by your knowledge of the area and local cuisine which Kristen helped prepare for us each day. You paid great attention to our preferences expressed in advance of the trip and even had a great birthday celebration for one of our group that will be hard to beat. Your fun, kindness and hospitality were amazing and we feel like we all have made two great friends in the BVIs. <br /> <br /> We were all able to relax and enjoy the ride because you made our trip a truly luxury experience we will never forget. We would highly recommend a trip on the Azuria with Captain Luke and First Mate Kristen to anyone we know. Any other trips we take will be compared to this one and will be difficult to surpass. Maybe we will just sail with you every year!<br /> <br /> Sincerely,<br /> Jackie and Steve <br /> Andrea and Rick <br /> Kelly and Carl <br /> </div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> February 2023</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'><br /> Rating of Yacht & Crew: 5/5 stars<br /> Q) Was the yacht comfortable and clean?<br /> A) Excellent.

As global travelers we thought we had experienced it all. But, after spending a week with Luke and Kristen on Azuria, it changed us forever. Kristen's culinary skills are on another level. Every bite kept us craving more. She built a menu around our dietary restrictions that couldn't have been better planned. Luke's captain skills, decision making and emphasis on safety had us all way more comfortable that we ever thought we would be. His knowledge of the islands is astounding. His humor is contagious. They couldnt be a better team. The way they work is so fluid and smooth. We were always taken care of and felt so welcomed and connected with them. Their kindness and desire to make this trip the most amazing ever was felt throughout. Azuria was gorgeous! Meticulously clean. Comfortable cabins and all the toys we ever wanted. The fly bridge was awesome to sit there, listen to music and stare off into the horizon. Just amazing! We will never forget this and look forward to doing it again.

The boat was well equipped, and very comfortable for the size of our group. Kristen worked magic in her small galley; the food was EXCEPTIONAL -- every meal, including a few she had to accommodate for dietary restrictions -- and comparable to any fine dining experience in the US. Luke knows the Caribbean and took us to some beautiful beaches and snorkel sites, and directed us to fun beach beach bars for afternoon drinks. Both were safety conscious and accommodating regarding the itinerary. Together, Kristen and Luke shared their knowledge of the area... interesting stories and history of the islands, pointed out sea life, etc. "<br /> <br /> Our trip was FANTASTIC!!!!!!! Luke and Kristen were amazing - 5 star service and food!!<br /> <br /> The boat was perfect size - well stocked with food and any other essentials - sunscreen and bug spray were all supplied as well. They greeted us with champagne and non stop service, attention and good food the entire time, even offering to go on a hike to ensure we didn't get lost. Luke and Kristen were flexible, full of knowledge and always pointing out things that were interesting or recommended places to go. All arrangements and pre planning were done with lots of detail. There is nothing that we would have wanted to happen differently - it was a 10/10 experience.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> July 2021</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>There are multiple adages that hold true for this vacation. "Good things come to those who wait." "Third times a charm" And hopefully for you, "we saved the best for last." Bob has dreamt - and talked - about chartering a catamaran in the Virgin Islands for 45 years. We had to cancel in 2017 due to the hurricanes and again in 2020 due to the pandemic. Finally we had our chance to board Azuria and help you close out your charter season. We were pinching ourselves the entire trip down to USVI - "was this finally happening?!?!" - and kept having "pinch me" Moments throughout the entire week. Thanks for the expert navigation that helped keep MJ comfortable on the water, the delicious meals that kept us full and super content all week, the great snorkel spots that led to "National Geographic" moments and the sailing experience that felt fitting of "the Pirates of the Caribbean" soundtrack. From our own Capt. Bob getting a turn at the help to Ash fulfilling his dream of landing a tarpon on the fly to Marcia's many luxurious painkiller induced naps on the bow, this week felt a million miles from home/work and the difficult last pandemic year. Thank you so much for your hospitality and making Azuria our home away from home. Our shared family photo album has nearly 700 photos after the week and we're leaving with as many special memories. We hope you have a great off-season and wedding. Please look us up if/when you get to Charleston. </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16283-1.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 38' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16283-1.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> July 2021</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>This has truly been a trip of a lifetime!

I'll remember what Harrison said on the hike that he loves the trip but also you both. Such a memorable experience for them and for us. We shall return!<br /> <br /> I had so much fun on Azuria with you guys. Snorkeling, kayaking, and the weiner dog were so much fun. The pina coladas and the food and desserts were amazing. I will miss them just like how I will miss you guys! <br /> <br /> I had a great time with y'all this week. My favorite part of the trip was the weiner dog. I really enjoyed the food as well and tried some new things! Thank you for everything, you guys are great!. <br /> <br /> This has been an incredible week! A dream come true and we cannot thank you both enough for everything! Mike, you are the best snorkel guide ever! And Britt, the food, especially the desserts, were amazing! The boys had so much fun and we made some great family memories with y'all that will last a lifetime. The boys all agree (and that doesn't happen often! :) ) that we need to do this again! Best wishes to you both on your upcoming wedding! Hope to sail with y'all again! </div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16279-1.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 39' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16279-1.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[5471]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16279-2.jpg?1375909739' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 40' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht5471/5471guests16279-2.jpg?1375909739"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> July 2021</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>This was by far the best vacation ever. You made everything amazing with your kindness, hospitality, cuisine, professionalism, boating skills and knowledge of the area. This has replenished our soul and friendships of 30+ years. You truly have a gift and we are so lucky to have been apart of it. We wish you a wonderful adventure and marriage and hopefully you can be just as happy and ab-normal in 30 years as we are ... haha.

We are reminded of the importance of slowing down, re-grouping, and feeling revived. Y'all were the perfect crew / hosts to allow us all to do this. Azuria and the USVI was the perfect setting. What can I say about y'alls hospitality?? You both were on step ahead of our every need. Drinks, snacks, delicious meals, and desserts. We have felt totally spoiled. We hope our paths cross again :) Until then -- cheers and best wishes for a wonderful life together.

They are warm and welcoming hosts that put us at ease from day one. Their hospitality, attention to detail and mixology and culinary skills have to be experienced to be believed. They had us spoiled.

Before I jump into the rat race of life, I wanted to thank you for a beautiful time. <br /> You certainly went overboard in your efforts to make sure everyone was happy aboard the Azuria. The special attention to individual tastes at meals, the work you did to tow the children around on the tube, the fantastic birthday celebration, the emphasis on safety did not go unnoticed. All four of us appreciated the chart talks and the meal planning sessions. While we were in the total relaxation mode, you were working hard behind the scenes. Thank you. <br /> My most precious memories of the trip were the intimate discussions we were able to have with the grandkids. We had lots of time.

Our family enjoys the daily “chart chat” with Captain Mark and the history/ trivia about the island we are located at or will be sailing to. Everyday was a new adventure and Captain Mark took us to new areas of the BVI’s we had not seen on our previous trip.<br /> The food to say the least, was amazing. Sally is a talented chef and each delicious meal was thoughtfully prepared and artfully presented. The Azuria is comfortable and very well maintained. Simply put, It was the best family vacation we’ve ever been on, and Mark and Sally’s hospitality has a lot to do with that.

It wildly exceeded all of them! The itinerary they put together perfectly matched our interests (secluded anchorages - snorkeling - fruity rum drinks). What really surprised me were the meals. That is not why we went on this trip - but WOW - everyday something else that was incredible - and every meal. The rhythm of each day was perfect - and Mark & Sally were always upbeat, cheerful, helpful, attentive, and busy. I cannot recommend them and the Sail Azuria experience more highly. When we pulled into Nanny Cay at the end of the week - the comradarie they had with other crews - and the high regard other crews have of them - was evident. Who better than that to know that with Mark and Sally - you're sailing with the best! <br /> <br /> Oh, and the boat was spotless, maintained, ship-shape, and spacious.

One of my best experiences was spending three weeks this season (2018) on a Cat called Azuria. From the moment I boarded, I could tell this was going to be one of the best experiences I have had sailing. The yacht was so clean and Mark and Sally our crew had paid attention to every detail prior to us even coming on board. Once on board we learned all our safety things and the fun began instantly. Every anchorage to every cocktail to every snack and even every meal was incredible and we could not have needed anything more. Mark and Sally run an amazing operation. They make your vacation relaxing, fun and you learn something new each and every day. I would highly recommend sailing with them for the ultimate sailing charter experience.

Sailing on the Viking Dream was beyond all my expectations.<br /> <br /> The Viking Dream is an exquisite boat. Every inch of it is immaculate. It is Mark and Sally's home and they take great pride in it and it shows. The boat is spacious and extremely comfortable. I loved swinging in the hammock chair or lounging in the bean bag chairs and of course sunning on the deck. The state rooms are very good size (for boat living) and are appointed with plenty of cabinets, lockers and shelves to accommodate all of your gear.You want for nothing on the Viking Dream. Sally and Mark make sure you have everything and are always comfortable. Truly, we were treated like royalty. It was the most wonderful experience. On board the Viking Dream are all the water toys and equipment as advertised. My sisters, mom and I had a ball kayaking and snorkeling and tubing and paddle boarding. (There was even more to do like fishing and windsurfing, but we opted for more relaxing!)<br /> <br /> Mark was great with making suggestions for activities and getting us to the best places to do them. He was always ready and willing to get our equipment ready for us.<br /> <br /> Mark is a captain extraordinaire. Besides catering to his guests, he sails the Viking Dream with amazing skill and ease. Sally is his first mate. Together they work like a fine tuned machine, in tandem, seamlessly sailing and managing the boat.With Sally and Mark at the helm, you don't have a care in the world.<br /> <br /> Sally is a chef beyond compare. She treated us to 3 meals a day ( and appetizers at cocktail hour) that dazzled both my taste buds and my eyes. Each was an exquisite masterpiece worthy of a photo in a cookbook. Day in and day out we were awed by Sally's decadent creations. Additionally, Sally considered all of our food preferences. I LOVED every dish she prepared (and was stuffed at the end of each meal.)<br /> <br /> With 100% confidence I would recommend sailing with Mark and Sally on the Viking Dream. ( I already have!) If I ever have the opportunity to charter a boat again I would only sail on the Viking Dream.<br /> <br /> Very truly yours,<br /> <br /> Linda T.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> February 2017 (previous yacht Viking Dream)</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Mark & Sally<br /> <br /> What a way to ring in my 50th year!

The difference was this was our first trip with other couples, sans children, making the Captian's poison of the day even more enjoyable and the nights under the stars romantic (trampolines are fun). Mark and Sally's knowledge of bays meant that we not only had a fabulous lunch at Deadman's Beach with a steel drum band one day, a few nights later they found a secluded bay with just one other boat (during the peak of the charter season). We found so many different fish, coral, and fans, all with incredible colors, at the snorkeling spots they took us too we spent cocktail hour going through the books and talking about what we'd seen. I've always loved Sally's cooking and it was particularly delicous not having to limit for child's preferences. I love taking the helm of Viking Dream as we cruise down the channel, all enjoying the spectacular views. A truly enjoyable vacation."<br /> - Andrew Z.

The boat was beautiful and spotless and extremely cozy and comfortable.<br /> The food was so delicious that we cannot fathom how you could create it in a galley.<br /> The sights and activities were so much fun that we cant decide what our favourites were.The nature walk with Mark? The Hot Dog? Snorkelling? Cow Wreck Beach?<br /> With your indepth knowledge of the area, history, nature and sailing; every experience was that much more meaningful and FUN.<br /> Meeting the two of you, and hearing your stories was also a joy. Not only did we feel spoiled beyond words, we also felt incredible safe in your well organised, thoughtful and careful hands.<br /> <br /> Thank you so very much for everything and please do visit us in Rhode Island<br /> Marian, Beatrice, Victoria, Vivenne and Emma</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><img src="" border=0 alt="Photo 69" class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtimg/yacht5471/5471guests8632-1.jpg?1375909739"></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> November 2015 (previous yacht Viking Dream)</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>21st NOVEMBER 2015<br /> <br /> If possible, our second visit with you was even better than our first.
