I’ve been here just a week ending now. I think that this was a fantastic experience and I really loved it. This yacht it fantastic, brand new and without a scratch. The crew is really nice even with the children and I think that this vacation will be repeated soon enough !
Boat: very comfortable boat. Would have liked to have done a bit more sailing as we motored quite a lot. Sometimes due to prevailing wind, sometimes due to the broken halyard. Given the nature of the boat and the presence of a skipper it is not a boat where much active sailing is required from guests. Not an issue but for you to know.
Crew: very helpful and friendly. Eliza did some amazing cooking. Her own recipes. Healthy food, well presented and very tasty. We had breakfast and lunch most days on the boat and dinner off the boat all days. Niko is a very good skipper. Is very safe and knowledgeable of the boat and the islands and gave us options of where to go etc. I would highly recommend them both. And they held you in high regard as a broker too.
Lambros - we were also very happy with the role you played. You spent time understanding our needs, were available and very professional.
Tranquilo was unbelievable! Not only did we go to some beautiful beaches we also had some amazing food. Jesse and Carla were great and really accommodated all of our needs. The reefs were magical and we saw some really cool fish and dolphins. Highly recommend!
“Simply Outstanding!!!”
We had the pleasure of chartering Blue Pepper for a week this June for our family of 5 + two teenage friends. The kids ranged from 13-20 years old, 2 girls and 3 boys. In the past we have been lucky enough to go on many yacht trips in the Mediterranean and Caribbean, primarily on boats in the 150’-200’ range.
Our experience on Blue Pepper was exceptional. While Blue Pepper itself is very nice, new, comfortable, nice linens, well equipped with large outdoor seating area, the service is really what set the trip apart. The crew was not only capable and professional but they worked really hard to provide thoughtful and unique experiences. The crew was kind, genuine, fun, service oriented and a true pleasure to be around.
Starting with the chef, Denise, who is a Brazilian energizer bunny with a passion for life. Her culinary skills were amazing and on par if not better than the much larger yachts that we have been on. The flavors, presentation and absolute attention to detail made a huge difference in our trip. She was always catering to the individual tastes of each guest, far beyond what was expected. Also, we really enjoyed hearing her crazy life stories as icing on the cake!
Captain Taylor is a professional who is a truly a boy at heart. He really made it a trip of a lifetime for our kids. He was always coming up with the next thing for them to do, taking them inner tubing, off road atving, fishing, snorkeling, on adventures around an island, etc. Also, I think he was having as much fun as our kids were. He is just a great guy.
Liz the stewardess, is a sweetheart, always quietly there to cater to all of your needs, constantly keeping the boat and cabins in immaculate condition. Never intrusive but always there in the background to ensure the service was great.
In the end it was hard for us to leave as we felt that Denise, Taylor and Liz were part of our family. I highly recommend them for your next charter experience.
The crew on Blue Pepper was outstanding. The crew and the boat were perfect for this trip (in May time) and we couldn’t be happier. As you know, the crew is always the difference maker. We were a family charter with kids, the kids loved it. Overall the spirit and the energy of the crew was superb for our family. Thanks Boatbookings team for recommending. We better understand how you know the crews of the boats and why you guide us to the best choice.
We had an excellent charter around Corsica and Sardinia. Thank you! Everything was very great, we really enjoyed this holiday! The boat, the crew, everything was amazing! Excellent recommendation from Boatbookings.
To say we had an amazing experience would be the understatement of the century! Our crew, Alex, Marcelle, Hannah and Brent were awesome! The scenery was incredible and the food was beyond spectacular! We only wish we stayed a few days longer. We will definitely be back Boatbookings and look forward to our next adventure.
Everything was really perfect! To the Crew - your attention and your care for all the details made our trip memorable. Chef Rich offered us amazing food, Captain Nick chased me seriously for snorkeling, Megan took excellent care of all our needs and Blaine was always here to help! You are a SUPER team!! Thank you very much. Knowledgeable recommendation by Boatbookings.
Celebrated a special birthday with family and friends. Would do it all again tomorrow! Crew were attentive, food delicious and thanks to Boatbookings for some meticulous planning!
