Ipanema 58

Automatically translated. View original

Very beautiful cruise in the islands around Guadeloupe on an Ipanema 58, with skipper Bernard and hostess Stéphanie.

For the booking part, the information and responses to questions from Marie (GlobeSailor) were relevant and quick.

We were lucky since we were the only passengers on this cruise and were able to be guided by the very friendly and competent Bernard on the best anchorages. He put us in the best conditions to vary activities and sites to discover, notably the best snorkeling spots, and we were able to encounter turtles, the humpback whale route, dolphins,... his knowledge of marine species and birds was greatly appreciated. The guided tour in Dominica offered by a contact of Bernard was also a very nice experience.
We were able to make stops in the following islands: Marie-Galante, Dominica, Les Saintes, Îlet Gosier,... Stéphanie, a very pleasant and caring person, prepared us varied meals and excellent cocktails.
In short, an unforgettable experience that makes us want to do it again elsewhere.

We had an unforgettable week thanks to Jackjack and Lou who pampered us.
The welcome was warm from the very first moment.
The atmosphere on board was excellent and the rapport with all the other passengers was perfect.
The environment of Guadeloupe made the cruise even more beautiful, and we were able to discover some local specialties on board.
The crew did everything to make the sailing and anchoring as comfortable as possible for all passengers.
The boat and its dimensions are well-suited for a group of 11 passengers like ours, and the comfort on board is maritime but not at all spartan: fresh and hot water for showers, private toilets, bedding, everything was perfect.
Thanks again to the crew and the organization!

The cruise itself (aside from the before and after) was very pleasant! We had a hostess (Alice) who was always smiling, always finding a solution to help us, and tireless in the kitchen to let us taste all the local culinary specialties and fruits that were completely unknown to us! Alice was really very lively and loved to interact with everyone! An exceptional hostess, perfect!
Our captain, very competent, was more reserved, very professional but somewhat distant at times. He loved to speak English, perhaps too much at times because some French people do not master the language of Shakespeare perfectly (some do not want to admit it, especially if the cruise takes place... in France!), which he tended to forget... There was little sharing about navigation (too bad...), it was his reserved domain and I must admit that I completely trusted him in this area. He did not get involved in leisure activities (paddle, kayak) but did not hesitate to take out and put away this equipment. He also did not hesitate to use the dinghy whenever it was requested.
We enjoyed this trip, it was our seventh cruise, we will do it again but making sure to have a superior cabin because the access to the bed was a bit high and on only one side with the power outlet on the inaccessible side, it was not very easy! 🤣 The atmosphere among the participants was very pleasant! A real summer camp that we really appreciated! ❤️
Would do it again.

An excellent trip discovering the islands around Guadeloupe with stops in dreamlike coves.
Water sports at any time... paddle, swimming, snorkeling...
Warm water and a paradise beach.
Top-notch crew.
Luxury cabin and boat.
Typical Creole meals with ambient music. During the navigation from one island to another, there is a possibility of seeing marine animals (dolphins...)
A must-do and do again!
