Testimonials

  • An experience that far exceeded anything we could have possibly imagined or hoped for!

    “Thank you so much!

    Valentine is a beautiful yacht and we were honored to have spent 3 wonderful days at sea. We could not have asked for a kinder crew. You both are so kind, thoughtful and caring.

    Thank you for the incredible, wonderful memories- we will never forget this trip of a life time!”

  • Fantastic!

    “What a fantastic four days in the U.S.V.I

    My favorite was the beautiful beaches! C.C. prepared the most amazing food- best chef ever!

    We survived four days with two adults and five teenagers and are already planning out next trip! Sad to leave this beautiful place.”

  • WOW!

    “What a great week. Food and fun was over the top!

    Absolutely awesome!

    on our week long adventure celebrating the life of our dear friend, we felt every ripple of his spirit egging us on to adventure and mischief! He was with us in rainbows, spotted eagle rays, sea turtles and nearly every fish on the card. Not to mention, dice games and shots, wrestling not the lily pad and rum punches in hand on the beach reminiscing on the good times.

    BLOWN AWAY, Heaven on earth.

    See you guys next year!”

  • Awesome trip in every way!

    “Thank you for the most amazing trip EVER! loved every second and can't wait to do it again. So many amazing sails, meals, snorkel trips, storytelling, Disaranno pouring and all the desserts!

    Thank you for all you did aboard Valentine to make it the most memorable week! It was just perfection! Food and EVERYTHING was just so delicious and amazing!”

  • A bucket list trip!

    “From the moment we we stepped on the boat we knew it would be an amazing trip. We enjoyed the islands and hit many of the "hot spots". The food was amazing! The Chef quickly picked up on our picky teenagers preferences and catered to that. There were many unplanned events on our trip but you guys adjusted with grace. Thank you for a relaxing slowdown which our family needed very much!”

  • Experience of a lifetime!

    “Going on a charter for the first time is a lot like going to you first day if school. Excitement is mixed with anxiety. Each of the crew did an exceptional job at putting us at ease, anticipating our every need and being so patient with our deci- sions that sometimes changed like the winds, as our journey through the USVI and BVI comes close, we will take home experience of a lifetime. The food set a new standard by which all other culinary experiences will be judged. We are so grateful for the opportunity, thank you, thank you, thank you.”

  • The food - OMG!

    “Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience! Every day was an adventure. The kids absolutely loved snorkeling and diving. You took us to amazing spots. Our bad weather day was a success due to your quick thinking.

    The food - OMG ! So much and all so GOOD! The surf and turf was a fan favorite and so were the yummy lunch pastas and wraps. Every meal was creative and cooked perfectly! I've never sen my kids each so much :)

    We truly appreciate your kindness and hospitality and wish you both the very best in the future!”

  • The trip was unforgettable!

    “Many memories were made on Valentine that will last a lifetime. Thank you our expectations in every way! Thank you to the crew for not only your knowledge of the sea but your knowledge and stories of any given topic we discussed.

    A few of our favorites were diving the scuttled Willy T, walking and swimming The Baths, the Rum bar, scooters and dancing at Potters to name a few.

    The best part not only spending time with old friends and making new ones an our fun quotes of the trip.....

    Overall this trip was unforgettable.

    We had an amazing crew and know that we are secretly the best guests of the season :) Thank you for the memories to last a lifetime!”
