Very beautiful week in a dream setting on a recent and spacious catamaran. We particularly appreciated the kindness and attention to the smooth running of our cruise, from Alex our skipper and Brigitte our cook;

All positive! A caring crew, a wonderful cruise, a great atmosphere, divine meals, a spacious and luxurious boat! The best vacation of my life, I highly recommend it! And I will come back... A big thank you especially to Kris and Lucius! A fantastic team that made this stay wonderful!

Great boat and a fabulous cruise. We will be doing another trip like this again.
The food on board was excellent and the itinerary was great too. The captain (Mahdi) was happy to flex the stops to suit his passengers; for example most wanted plenty of swimming and snorkelling so this was accommodated.
We thought the trip was good value overall, we did not need much by way of spending money.
Minor issues (that did not spoil the trip):
The captain could have done more by way of briefing on what was coming up.
The cost of leaving our two heavy suitcases in the luggage store at the marina was €8 per case per day, which we thought expensive. €112!

This trip was in the top 5 that I have taken, if not the best and I have taken a LOT of trips!
This trip will please sailors, ocean lovers, fresh air enthusiasts, but there was a good mix of sailing, snorkeling, excursions and some bar hopping on small islands. The views are spectacular, my accomodation was super clean and comfortable. We all ended up being a small family but the Captain and hostess made it what it was. Their professionalism, good humour and helpfulness were present throughout.
Merci Inez for all the fine food and flexibility and Captain Jean-Charles for being a true professional and an all around wonderful person! I will be back!

Very comfortable premium cabin and spacious catamaran. Our steward/cook Kris treated us to delicious, abundant, varied dishes, and the desserts were exquisite. Always attentive to our needs and in a good mood, he made this week unforgettable. I almost forgot his exceptional Piña Colada that he kindly offered us. Our skipper Gégé made this cruise memorable with his talent, navigation knowledge, and personality. Gégé suggested an unscheduled stop (Castrie market in St-Luce) which I really appreciated. He treated us to a memorable Caribbean meal with perfectly spiced conch and flambéed bananas.

Everything was perfect, a top crew with Alex (skipper) and Maika (cook) who were great throughout the cruise :)

The excursions were wonderful, allowing us to discover the islands and the cruise took place in a paradise-like setting!!! I would even be ready to do it again.

The follow-up by Marie from GlobeSailor was perfect as well from start to finish, thank you.

The cruise was a great adventure, we had a fantastic crew in the form of Captain Alex and hostess Karen - very friendly and competent people.
Karen cooked very well, and Alex, a true "sea wolf," handled the catamaran perfectly while telling us cool stories.
The route was also fine, although we didn't expect such long passages and quite difficult weather conditions, but... ahoy adventure!
Everything went smoothly and without problems. And the Caribbean in this version... is the real Caribbean. Thank you very much, and we are already planning the next cruise - this time we are thinking about Polynesia...

Thanks to good organization through GlobeSailor, everything was perfect. The advice before leaving for the choice of destination made this stay unforgettable.

On site, the welcome was perfect. Our captain's knowledge and the meals prepared on the boat won us over.

What an incredible experience! 8 days on board a magnificent catamaran.

The boat was perfect: spacious, comfortable, and with a friendly atmosphere. The crew was fantastic, attentive, and provided great advice for diving spots.

The anchorages were paradise-like: turquoise bays, deserted beaches, and breathtaking sunsets. Exceptional snorkeling with rich and colorful marine life.

I loved the freedom to sail with the wind, away from the crowds of large boats. The meals on board were delicious with fresh local products.

An authentic way to discover the Caribbean! I highly recommend it for those looking for a more intimate experience close to nature.

I would do it again without hesitation!

From the booking, everything was perfect. I thank Marie for her advice and quick responses right up until the day before departure. The welcome at the base in Martinique was very good and very warm. Regarding the cruise, I give 6 stars to the crew; they made us feel comfortable right away, both during the crossing since it was our first time, and during the excursions and anchorages. They were caring and eager to share their experiences and help us discover these beautiful islands. I would go back with them to any destination with my eyes closed.

Our stay aboard the catamaran was a wonderful experience! The comfort of the boat, the atmosphere on board, and the breathtaking landscapes made this trip memorable.

A big thank you to Kris, our steward, who took care of us with remarkable attention. His dishes and desserts were absolutely delicious, adding a gourmet touch to this adventure at sea.

Alex, our skipper, demonstrated great professionalism and attentive listening to all passengers. His desire to share his knowledge of navigation made this trip even more enriching.

The only small downside: the paid excursions that could have benefited from better organization and more engaging content. That said, the overall trip remains an unforgettable experience.

If you are looking for a cruise that combines relaxation, discovery, and learning, the catamaran is an excellent option!

Pavel, Yulia, the crew of the catamaran Rafik and Chris, we want to thank you for the wonderful find in helping us with the tour to Marienique and the cruise through the Caribbean islands. We had a great time.

Our Captain, Rafik, was excellent at what he did. And the first mate and cook, Kris, was extraordinary. They did a fantastic job!
It was a great way to see St. Vincent and the Grenadines and St. Lucia, I highly recommend it

Superb experience with a crew (skipper and cook) attentive to all passengers. The Grenadines is a magical destination with a favorite for the island of Mayreau.

We had an indescribably beautiful week on the sailboat. The area is stunning, our skipper Riso was a great captain, with a lot of sailing experience, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The mixed group of young and old was fun and enriching. The only thing that could be improved is the food and the dining culture.
All in all, a paradisiacal trip, thanks to everyone.

Great stay with a great crew!

Thanks to Gregory for his professionalism, kindness, and availability as a "taxi dinghy" when we wanted to go ashore!

Thanks to Léna for her welcome, her smile, her good mood, and her excellent cooking.

Looking forward to seeing you again.

We are so happy and pleased with our trip trough the Grenadines!

The schedule had perfect balance regarding time spent on each place/activity, the destinations was beautiful and the visits to each place felt authentic since it wasn't crowded with other tourists. The boat was big and fresh. The crew was very friendly and created a good vibe on board. The only feedback of improvement is:
1. Toilet had slight disfunction (which we highlighted to crew members, who had a look but no solution provided) in our cabin and some nights was very hot.
2. Instructions and information from crew members could be better. We would like to have a some kind of briefing of what each destination is known for or what we can expect during the days. A bit unclear timings for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
3. Only the skipper spoke basic English.
4. Tour (optional package) in St Lucia was not good. The guide was not engaged (didn't talk enough or to whole group) and it felt very touristic (follow the stream of people). The guide didnt provide us with information, and was difficult to engage in questions. This was the complete opposite to the guided tour in st Vincent, where we had an amazing tour and guide (Mr Liquid) who was excellent in his communication, open to questions, provided a good vibe for the tour. All the best to Mr Liquid!
5. Breakfast could be improved, was missing basic ham or cheese and maybe some salad/fruit.

An overall very positive experience. The boat was roomy, daytours gave us time to explore beaches and villages, good amount of time for snorkelling/swimming. Food was good, variety and well presented.
An experienced kapten who knew alot of locals and how to find best anchoring each night. Always offering to take dinghy to land if wanted.

We started on time and we're welcomed by wonderful crew Mehdi and Marie!
We felt safe over all the time, were given advices and recommendations how to enjoy the time.
For sure we'd like to repeat this as it was a great experience since booking time until the end of our journey.

Greetings to our co-travelers as well!

The trip was excellently organized, and the destinations were very well chosen. The crew deserves the highest praise, as does the food that was "magically" prepared daily. The only downside is that the ship shows some signs of use.

We really enjoyed our catamaran cruise in the Grenadines. Our Captain Gregory and our Hostess Léna were truly attentive - a fantastic duo! I had a little apprehension about sharing the boat with strangers, but in the end, it was really nice. And there are plenty of places to isolate yourself. The first night at sea was a bit complicated, but otherwise, it was really wonderful. The destination is beautiful. I highly recommend the excursion package.

We were warmly welcomed at the port of Le Marin and received all the important information for the upcoming trip.
We had the pleasure of traveling with Melissa as our captain and Sabrina. Both were super nice and professional! Sabrina treated us to delicious local delicacies, and Melissa safely and informatively sailed us from Martinique to the Grenadines and back. Both took care of our well-being at all times!
Especially the Tobago Cays were breathtakingly beautiful - crystal clear turquoise water, huge starfish, and turtles 🥰
It was a great experience and trip! This was our first time, but certainly not the last time we will travel this way.

A very beautiful cruise with a bit too much sailing for us who are not seasoned sailors

The Bali 5.4 was a great vessel for charter with 12 guests. Lots of space for passengers to spread out in. Nice accommodation and dining area. Averaged 7.5 to 8.5 kts motor sailing.
Would have been nice to have had more snorkeling opportunities.
Food was marginal

Good experience, although the first night at sea was difficult. Wonderful stops: Mayreau, Bequia, and Tobago Cays. It's a shame we didn't spend enough time in St. Vincent and St. Lucia, just a stop for excursions. I would have liked to visit these last two stops more. The boat was very comfortable and clean, and the crew was very pleasant. Thank you, Lucius. Thank you, Rudy. Very good rapport with the other travelers.

Superb 7-day cruise that allows for a true disconnection and the discovery of islands that are all different from one another. The hostess and the skipper were very pleasant, and the atmosphere with the group was good. We ate well (the BBQ lobsters are worth it) and swam well. However, I recommend bringing your own snorkeling gear because the equipment provided on site is not of very good quality, which unfortunately spoiled the magnificent dive at Tobago Cays a bit...

Very friendly crew.
A nature cruise with beautiful spots.
Spacious boat with several lounges.

I recommend doing this cruise for 10 days as there are many hours of sailing and the sea is not always calm.

Destination Le Marin, Martinique. Count on a small hour by taxi to get there. Very pleasant and warm welcome. The meals are plentiful and balanced. The standard cabins on the BALI 5.4 are the cabins at the back, which open directly onto the deck. So be careful if you intend them for children. A big thank you to Marie, the hostess, and to Lucius, the skipper, for making this trip so unique and unforgettable! Don't hesitate to take the tour option. It's magnificent!

We had an unforgettable stay.
Everything was perfect: Philou and Laure (skipper and hostess), the sailing, the cuisine, the discovery of these magical islands, the various encounters with the locals, the exchanges with the other passengers.
I also thank Marie from GlobeSailor for her advice and professionalism.
Don't hesitate, embark on the adventure with complete confidence...

We had a great time.
The skipper was very competent and available.
The cook was efficient and excellent.
The collaboration between the two was very good.
The other four couples chosen with us matched perfectly.

BOOKING PROCESS:
Very good indeed.

CHECKING IN & MARINA:
A lovely check in team at the office at the marina.
Some confusion with the arrival instructions we were given with one lot saying to check in at 1800 hrs, another saying departure at 1800, then we found some information saying the office at the Marina closed at 1730 hrs. We arrived 2 hrs early to be on the safe side and were able to check in and then stashed our bags in the luggage room (which has a coded door entry) while we went for a drink and were able to leave a bag for the week if we had wanted to, to save space in our yacht cabin.

THE BOAT:
A very well appointed catamaran which was a joy to sail and live in. There were plenty of seats and loungers so we were always comfortable up top and the cabins were spacious for a boat and well appointed.

THE CREW:
Cannot speak highly enough of our skipper (Lucius) and Cook (Karine) who really were absolutely outstanding. Very organised, super nice and friendly, very engaging and inclusive.
Lucius is something of a celebrity everywhere you go and you can see why as he is so much fun and very capable.
Karine also had friends everywhere we went and was both an exceptional cook (we wanted to take her with us back home) and very fun and charismatic. We had plenty of food each day and enjoyed a lovely menu which reflected the local cuisine.

THE LOCATION:
We loved the itinerary, it gave just the right amount of time on the different islands and a great balance between sailing and being moored in beautiful locations. The excursions were a lot of fun and added an extra dimension to the trip.

We had an excellent week on the catamaran with a very experienced and friendly crew. The steward treated us to a varied cuisine and we lacked for nothing. The excursions did not all go according to plan (no steelband, no lobster meal on Jack Sparrow's beach) but were still nice (we had the lobsters at a local bar on the beach). The first part of the cruise (13 hours) was a bit difficult, especially since the air conditioning was broken and it was very hot in the cabins. The tablets for seasickness are essential!!
But we have very fond memories of this week in the Grenadines.

Automatically translated. View original

We received a very warm welcome from the staff at Marin. The boat is very luxurious, fully equipped (including a 220V socket in the cabin + air conditioning). The boat is very well maintained throughout the cruise by the crew. This cruise offers incredible landscapes, very wild, not too much tourism, which is pleasant. It's a shame that snorkeling was too rare and not always possible due to the current. In summary, despite a few minor downs, it was a dream trip that we had been looking forward to, which will remain unique.

The Catamaran proved the ideal way to explore this part of the Carribean. The crew - a captain and cook/second crew member looked after us very well with a week of authentic and delicious Carribean meals.

The Ipanema seems smaller than the other catamaran offered, but the comfort and space are more than sufficient. The welcome at the marina was excellent, and the agency was very easy to find, just like the nearby port. We took a taxi from the airport that cost us 77 euros (others paid 100...). The crew consisted of a skipper and a hostess/cook who turned out to be very nice and competent. However, don't expect to eat a lot; I was content with what I had. We found ourselves with 5 couples, 4 French and 1 German, with a quick cohesion that allowed, despite the 30 years separating the youngest from the oldest, to create bonds of friendship. The night navigation from 3 PM to the starting point was difficult for everyone - advice: don't eat or drink too much, take a "Mercalm" and lie down to try to sleep - the same problem on the return, which was even more agitated. I didn't get sick on the way back!! The island visits and snorkeling were appreciated by all, but a small downside was that we would have liked to land more often on the islands with the dinghy (main negative point). Upon arrival, we were all delighted with the shared experience.

I do not recommend this cruise for older people or those with significant disabilities - it moves a lot, and you need a certain balance when the sea is rough, which happens often. I do not recommend this cruise for people with health problems, particularly cardiovascular and locomotor issues.

We live in a community for a week and share our joys and sorrows. I therefore recommend this cruise for people who enjoy human contact and good living. I do not recommend it for egocentrics.

Cabin cruise in the Grenadines on an Ipanema 58 catamaran, a beautiful and very stable boat even in rough seas. The captain/hostess couple worked very well together, they were very friendly and efficient. Karin, our hostess, was an exceptional cook! Lucius, our captain, was always on the lookout for the best anchorage and available for all the shore trips. This destination was a great discovery. However, the quality of the excursions offered needs improvement (except for the top-notch lobster dinner!).

The catamaran is in perfect condition for you to enjoy a comfortable cruise. The warm welcome of the team at the marina, and the experience of the skipper should be underlined.

Beautiful and spacious boat, crew and especially Sandrine the lovely hostess, enough time in Tobago. The excursion to St Vincent was quite average. The one to St Lucia was very good even though it would have been nice to have the bath at the volcano included. Overall, the excursions are quite expensive. Kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, and snorkeling equipment were very good. Varied food and plenty of alcohol. (I didn't test the wine much).

We departed from the base in Le Marin for a one-week cruise (cabin) in the Grenadines, Saint Lucia, etc. The boat (Lagoon 620) was brand new and tastefully furnished with quality materials. The skipper and the hostess were very, very friendly (Claude and Pascaline). The food was excellent. However, I would have preferred to have a little less frozen products so that I could buy fresh products from local fishermen/merchants. I have excellent memories of this cruise. I would do it again next year (or sooner)!

First of all, thank you to Clément from GlobeSailor for his advice and for considering our expectations.
The Ipanema 58 catamaran is new, very well equipped, and allows for "isolation" even with 12 passengers.
The skipper is very competent and attentive. The second/cook is very caring.
The landscapes and anchorages are stunning; be careful on the first night crossing; the sea is generally choppy between the islands.
The service on board exceeded our expectations; gourmet cuisine, plated service, fresh products, and friendliness...
The balance of the number of participants was wise; 3 groups of 4 friends.
