Dear Monika and Steve, thanks for the most magical trip on your awesome cat! I have loved every sunrise, sunset & kite mayhem! From turtles, stingrays, coral reefs, sea urchin diving, waterfalls the list goes on. We all truly relaxed and I can't wait to come back. The food & hospitality has been epic and you are both truly lovely humans with so many cool stories.

An adventure of a lifetime - 1st Dec 2021
Our friend gifted us a surprise romantic sailing trip. Little did we know that he was gifting us quite the adventure of a lifetime led by two kindred spirits. We will remember the sailing, the hikes, boyboy, starts, waterfalls, stories, feast and games and carry with us your kindness and hospitality - always.
Your boat is lovely, and so are you. We will keep in touch until our paths cross again...
