To our Alice crew,
And what a crew you are. You are fabulous and made this trip even more unbelievable than it is! Such a great time we all had and much of it was thanks to you all; the fabulous food, types of water toys, etc. Great fun! My 3 snorkeling trips, thank you - a vacation beyond belief. Thank you all.
Dear new friends from Alice,
Well I can not say it as eloquently as the others from our group of 8, but this trip with you all was beyond any and all expectations I may have had! Honestly, I was a little concerned about an all male crew, wondering if the vibe would be different not having a female crew member! I need not have worried. That was just silly on my part. I am sincerely grateful to you all for every big and little detail you attended to. The vibe was different in the best way possible. I journaled our day to day activities and meals so when I am really old I can remember and relive this adventure. You all hold a special place in my heart. P.S. Michael shares my sentiment and says - hell yeah!
To our Alice crew,
The highest praise I can give is that I want to come back and take another journey with this same crew. I love you for making our trip everything I could have asked for. Such sweet, lovely men taking care of all things for all of us. We are a group of 8 - 6 family and 2 friends. We have memories to last a lifetime. Each day was something special - new sand bank, new reef, great food, water toys, beach sunset cocktails, dinner BBQ at the most beautiful of venues. Thank you from the bottom of my heart to you, Alice crew, and my husband for arranging this trip and bringing our family and friends to share in this magic.
A sincere thank you for a fabulous trip. Lots of laughs and enjoyment for all. Great food/wine/drinks and music. Sunsets are beautiful, day activities well planned and organized. Thank you Ron and Chris for the invite. Thank you to captain and crew. Safe and happy travels.
What a fabulous week we have enjoyed on Alice and their most caring, professional, lovely, sweet, gentle crew! The day journey and activities were so fun. The laughs we shared are memorable and thanks for laughing with us - not at us - HAHA as we jumped off the trampoline and trying to navigate the water to the sea top. What fun on the beaches, and the snorkeling adventures felt truly like a visit to Alice in Wonderland. Thank you White Rabbit and Alice for a lifetime of memories. With much love and gratitude. We shall be back!
We cannot thank you enough for the amazing time! From the moment we stepped on board we felt completely at home. You both are so warm and gracious. Your attention to detail is outstanding. Our every want and need was anticipated.
We will never forget all the different sites, activities and excursions you planned for us. We would have a difficult time picking a favourite. Each day was better than the last and the meals were so delicious that many nights we chose to eat on board rather than venture out. When we did go dine on land your recommendations were just right!
We hope to see you back in the states, you are welcome at our home anytime!
We recently embarked on an unforgettable journey aboard the Ocelot, navigating the serene waters of the British Virgin Islands with our exceptional captain, Tim and his partner Zara. From the moment we set sail from St. Thomas, the adventure was nothing short of magical. Each destination, from St. John to the secluded beauty of Anegada and the vibrant atmosphere of Jost Van Dyke, was meticulously chosen, ensuring a blend of adventure, relaxation, and unparalleled beauty.
The Ocelot itself was a haven of comfort and luxury. Its recent upgrades, including the plush seating and state-of-the-art amenities, made our stay incredibly comfortable. Whether it was lounging on the fly-bridge with a 360-degree view or enjoying the gourmet meals prepared on board, every moment was a testament to the excellence and attention to detail by Tim and Zara.
Their expertise not only as sailors but as hosts made our journey memorable. They went above and beyond to accommodate our interests, from diving island excursions to the best snorkeling spots, ensuring that each day was filled with new discoveries and experiences. The warmth and genuine care they showed made us feel like family, turning a great trip into an extraordinary one.
To Tim and Zara, thank you for making our voyage across the BVI so special. Your passion for sailing and the love for the islands shone through in every aspect of the trip. We returned home with hearts full of joy and memories that will last a lifetime. We look forward to our next adventure aboard the Ocelot, exploring more of the Caribbean’s hidden treasures.
We are slowly getting back to daily life. Here are some comments on the trip.
Crew – Nick and Amy were fantastic. They were hospitable, easy to work with and fun. One important aspect was Nick always tried to anchor the boat in the evening to get the best view of the sunset!
Food – Amy did an exceptional job preparing meals on the boat. I was impressed by the diversity and quality of the menu.
Experiences – Our visit to Anegada Island was very fun for everyone. The mode of transportation, visit to quiet beaches and the Tipsy beach bar were great.
Overall, it was an exceptional trip that we all enjoyed. Thank you, Boatbookings, for your assistance in coordinating our vacation.
Personality: Tim and Zara were super receptive to our family`s objectives for the trip. They tailored it based on feedback I gave them ahead of time and then made some adjustments on the fly. Beyond that, they were just fun people. For example, one of our kids is really into planes, and Tim took us to some sunken planes to dive on.
Food: The food was incredible. Whether it was the breakfasts, lunches, or dinners, I can’t say enough about the quality and variety.
The Boat: The boat was clean, well-decorated, and comfortable. I liked the layout and the ease of use of the various “toys” on the boat.
Bottom line: we were looking for a trip of adventure, nature, and family time, and Ocelot and the team definitely delivered. Thank you Boatbookings, professional with lots of knowledge on the best boats and crews.
Hazel Della was wonderful!
Captain Jeremy got us to all the best spots; private beach areas, excellent snorkling spots, a scuba dive at a magnificient coral reef and a picturesque sandbar. Chef Kylie made us so sad to go home. Her meals and drinks were on point. This will be a trip we will never forget!
