Reviews
The professionalism of the crew is outstanding - clearly 5 star - gold star.
Service is comparable to any highly rated Michelin restaurant.
Menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner are top quality.
Cleanliness - the living quarters are spotless and kept that way.
Cordiality - both Rob and Jackie make you feel right at home.
The ship - One of the finest we have been on. It is engineered both structurally and comfortably.
In closing, I will say this has been the best vacation we have ever been on, and my wife and I have traveled extensively (Europe, Middle East, South America, and numerous cruises. This experience has been the best, made the best by Rob and Jackie!
you've been the best hosts and we've all absolutely loved our time on board Tapas! It's hard to pick a highlight, from Robs' famous painkiller cocktail (better than Soggy Dollar) to Jackie's delicious samosas and snapper risotto, swimming to The Baths and snorkeling at The Indians, we've enjoyed every moment.
Wishing you both the best of luck with the rest of the season. We're envious of the other guests who will be sailing with you!
Thanks so much,
Elena
