The Boatbookings Picks series features Daniel’s top luxury crewed catamaran in the British Virgin Islands.
Luxury Power Catamaran, CEST LA VIE
The Lagoon Sixty7 power catamaran, CEST LA VIE, takes her place among the BVI’s finest luxury crewed catamarans. Daniel appreciated her exceptional crew, refined spaces, and an unmistakable sense of opulence. Personally inspected at the annual BVI Yacht Show, she promises an unparalleled experience through the British Virgin Islands.
Luxury in Motion
A galley-down design maximizes space in the saloon and on the foredeck, creating an elegant setting to spend time with family over the course of your 7-day Virgin Islands itinerary. Daniel found that movement was effortless from the aft deck all the way to the bow, where teak decking remains cool underfoot and soft to the touch. A large master cabin invites guests into the highest standard of luxury, where plush bedding offers a dreamy place to rest before the next day’s adventures.

Working with a local sommelier, Candace will organize a wine tasting with food pairings to enhance the quality. Hylton and Amy are avid divers and will take you on daily adventures to the top dive sites in the BVI.
As part of our Boatbookings Picks series, our team is excited to share Patrick’s favorite boat from the 2025 BVI Yacht Show.
ENDLESS SUMMER III sailing in the BVI
While many yachts stood out at the 2025 BVI Yacht Show, Boatbookings team member Patrick found that ENDLESS SUMMER III’s sustainable practices, impressive water toys, and well-established crew raised the bar to the next level. The annual show allows the Boatbookings team to personally evaluate each catamaran. In assessing layouts, crew chemistry, and cuisine, we can ensure each recommendation is backed by firsthand experience. Chartering a luxury crewed catamaran through the British Virgin Islands is an unrivaled experience. From feeling your toes sink into white-sand beaches on Anegada to uncovering hidden corals at the Wreck of the Rhone, the BVI has something for everybody.
Light fills every corner of ENDLESS SUMMER III. Look out through the panoramic windows to famous anchorages like The Baths on Virgin Gorda. What immediately stood out to Patrick was her flybridge, which welcomes you with cushions that hug you as you drift off into an afternoon nap. Wake feeling rested and ready to paddle around the protected coves of Cooper Island. End your days with a leisurely al fresco dinner on the aft deck, where the smell of fresh lime from the ceviche fills the air and hand-selected wine fills your glass.
With renewable energy systems and thoughtfully sourced materials, ENDLESS SUMMER III ensures eco-conscious yacht chartering, so you can sail the BVI for many years to come. Compared to other catamarans at the show, this yacht’s high energy efficiency allows seamless sails without running engines, so you can hear every note of your favorite song through the speakers. With sustainably sourced cork decking, your feet will remain cool even on the hottest days. Its eco-friendly nature is non-slip and stain-resistant, maintaining a beautiful atmosphere while also keeping you safe.
Service from a Tight-Knit Team
For six years, Captain Alex, Chef Val, and Haley have worked together, fostering a relationship built on trust and seamless coordination. Alex will welcome you on board with a warm smile and a friendly hand, while Val has champagne flutes waiting inside the galley, ready to pop the bottle. With a sense of adventure and love for the outdoors, Haley is excited to guide you up the best hiking trails on Virgin Gorda. Witness stunning views of North Sound from the top of the Hog Heaven trail, and dig in to even better BBQ at the restaurant. Ready to go on an adventure with this incredible crew? Reach out to Patrick, who is more than ready to help you begin planning your next holiday on ENDLESS SUMMER III.
Days Made for the Water
E-Foiling in the BVI
When you find the perfect bay where the water is so still it looks like glass, and the only sound is the splash of water as you dive off the bow, explore the area on an E-Foil. Secluded coves like Benures Bay provide the perfect atmosphere to see how far you can go before somersaulting back into the water. For a slower start to your day, grab a mat and block for sunrise yoga on the deck. The fresh air and morning stretches will set the tone for an unhurried day ahead.
Partnering with Boatbookings guarantees expert guidance on the best anchorages in the BVI. Through our own time sailing the BVI and meticulously cultivated research, we found the most rewarding hiking trails on Norman Island and the best restaurants on Anegada for fresh-caught lobster. We look forward to working with you to create your own personalized itinerary on the yacht of your dreams. Feeling inspired to create your next escape? Contact our experts for a proposal.
We are thrilled to announce Ben’s favorite boat from the 2025 BVI Yacht Show, in a continuation of our Boatbookings Picks series.
ENDLESS HORIZON sailing in the BVI
While every yacht went above and beyond at the 2025 BVI Yacht Show, charter expert Ben found that the dynamic crew and gourmet menu on ENDLESS HORIZON made this Sunreef 80 stand out as the best. The British Virgin Islands await with an endless stretch of turquoise waters and coral reefs to explore, and a luxury crewed catamaran is the best way to experience them. Each year, the Boatbookings team tours every boat to shake hands with the captains, sample the chef’s gourmet menu, and memorize the layout so we can recommend the boat that best fits your needs.
Ben particularly loved the galley-up design, where you can witness your personal chef masterfully handcraft desserts. Spend your evenings in the upscale, loft-style saloon where you can reminisce about your favorite islands. The expansive foredeck invites you to sink into the plush cushions and feel the cool air on your skin as you sail downwind. Once anchored in a quiet bay on Norman Island, try out the ship’s E-foil or explore the waters with a Sea Bob.
An outgoing and attentive crew of 4 is excited to greet you on ENDLESS HORIZON. As soon as you step on board, you will be welcomed as old friends by Captain Jonathan, Chef Ulrika, Mitchel, and Tracy. You can immediately head to the flybridge, where an island bar waits with comfortable seating and panoramic views of the water. While craft drinks are being made to order, chat with Jonathan, whose outgoing personality and sailing experience will instantly put you at ease. Before you even leave port, Mitchel will have you doubled over from laughter, while Tracy has a camera ready so you can remember the exact moment you saw turtles surfacing at Peter Island.
A Menu Tailored to You
The award-winning Chef Ulrika creates magic in the galley. While you soak up the sun on Sandy Spit, she will be creating your new favorite flavor of ice cream. Ever wonder what the famous painkiller cocktail would taste like in the form of ice cream? Ulrika’s recipe will have you topping your ice cream sundaes with rum from now on! While her cooking is strongly inspired by Asian and Mediterranean influences, she will tailor a menu to her guests’ dietary needs and preferences. If you crave fresh Anegada lobster every night, Ulrika will make it happen. Ready to create an indulgent menu on ENDLESS HORIZON? Ben is standing by, excited to help you make a list of your favorite ice cream flavors for Ulrika. Enquire now to start planning your next vacation.
Thrilling Adventures in the BVI
Explore the water with Sea Bobs
Captain Jonathan takes pride in creating memories for guests on board. His own sense of adventure has led to hobbies that include diving, wakeboarding, and E-foiling. Ben got to spend time with Jonathan and found that one of the most popular activities for guests who also enjoy thrill-seeking is ATV tours on Anegada. Speed from Cow Wreck to Loblolly Beach with the wind on your back and the view of the water beside you. Many adventures await you in the BVI, and Captain Jonathan is thrilled to help you discover them.
For almost twenty years, Boatbookings has created personalized itineraries that our guests can enjoy time and time again. Having personally sailed these islands, we know which bars have the best rum and which beach has just the right firmness of sand for volleyball. Availability moves quickly, though, and for exceptional yachts like ENDLESS HORIZON, you will want to book now to secure the exact dates you want.
