Excellent host and yacht

Sandeep Mar 2026

Staying with Xavier and his wife was a 10/10 experience. They are such a warm, professional couple who go above and beyond for their guests. The yacht itself is beautiful and very well-equipped. It was the perfect way to experience the beauty of El Nido in total peace and luxury. Thank you both for the memories!

Reply from GlobeSailor

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Sandeep! We’re delighted to hear you had such a memorable experience exploring El Nido. Xavier and his wife take great pride in creating a warm atmosphere on board, and it’s fantastic to know their hospitality and the yacht itself made your trip so special. We truly appreciate you sharing your experience and hope to help you plan another adventure in the future!

Island hopping off phuket

Linda Mar 2026

Where does one begin…Suni, Milk, and Em were just fabulous! Suni, our skipper, and his wife-Milk, she is the hostess/chef, and Em…our ever present first-mate…wonderful and kind people that ensured our delights for a wonderful holiday! Amadeus is a sturdy sound vessel with all of the practical amenities one requires. It isn’t fancy but functional! But the crew make up for everything you might think you lack! They took us on adventures the average person would never do or see staying at an over crowded resort on Phuket. It was quiet, peaceful and absolutely lovely! Highly recommend! I’m a sailor, but this time I just sat back and relaxed. Sometimes we can’t help the weather and you have to go by power…but it didn’t matter! Still wonderful being on the Andaman Sea, soaking up the sun and having fun! Skipper Suni is very knowledgeable…we were in great hands, Milk’s cooking is by far the best Thai food we had anywhere we were in Thailand, and Em would do anything for us at a drop of a hat! We were truly pampered!
And thanks, Ruby Mountain, for putting up with all of my pre-sail questions for our group of 5!
Thanks, Linda and Brian Holden

Sun odyssey 350

Ryan Mar 2026

Had a lovely week sailing on the Sun Odyssey 350. The marina is close to the airport and groceries for provisioning are just a 5-minute walk away.

The staff are all lovely to deal with and the boat is in great shape. The Odyssey is pretty light and a round hull so it rolls a bit while at anchor and on the mooring, but overall a very safe and comfortable boat to sail.

Grenadines cruise

William Mar 2026

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!

Boat condition and local support on high level

Ross Mar 2026

Super well organised marina and charter company staff, with scheduled navigational and boat briefings, satisfying requests for additional tools or equipment (like extra cooler, etc), plus help by fuelling dock and bringing the boat in by themselves, if needed. Boat condition was good, well maintained. Recommend to provision for the whole trip, and pre-book Starlink with charter company or have your own, coz most of the sailing area doesn't have cellphone reception (good for digital detox, but needed sometimes for some situations).

Outstanding!

Suzanne Feb 2026

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!
