Charter on April 9 - 16, 2024 in St Martin area - 2 guests from Barbados
Our second charter on Namaste and its still as wonderful as it was on our 1st despite the weather!
You all took such care of us and made sailing in the run fun.
Captain Willo made as last time our cruise special.
Courtney looked after every need, making excellent coffees, and force feeding us champagne!
Thanks Pippa for the amazing food, I was need to diet but great to meet a fellow Northerer in the Caribbean.
Glen was so friendly and helpful even searching for Brian's non existent missing Apple watch!
We will miss you all. All the best for the future!

Charter on Dec 29 - jan 5, 2024 in Antigua area - A group of 6 from Monaco
The size of the boat was perfect for us. The girls really enjoyed each having their own rooms with queen beds and bathrooms/shower. Storm and I enjoyed the larger space bedroom. Also great was that all bedrooms were airconditioned.
- The crew was amazing. They really are all extremely good at their job, they were friendly but not overbearing, they were open to be personal but professionally distant. They all very flexible and open to adapting to our and the kid’s ever-changing needs without ever showing any signs of impatience. All four of them are really hard workers and go above and beyond.
- Chef Lola had a great idea and made the whole trip a 100% gluten-free journey, which was really amazing. With Zoe being celiac and the kids liking their snacks, it is not so easy for us to keep the eating-routine very stable. Lola and Courtney had no issue with that at all and kept just working around us and predicting our needs. They even got a new toaster just for this sail, so that there would be no contamination. This is really going above and beyond…
- Seabobs are a MUST. What amazing little inventions! Of all the many many toys of the Namaste, the bobs are clearly the winners. Those we need on any future charters 😉 All the other toys were also used and enjoyed a lot, just not loved as much as the Bobs. But the Namaste’s many toys are definitely a big positive feature.
- The most enjoyable part of the itinerary was Barbuda. For the next trip, we would welcome your recommendations and seek to include even more white-sand beach, remote type destinations. This time it was us driving the train and we were surprised how much more we liked Barbuda than Antigua, which is the island we initially were fixated on.
- Only change we could envision on the next one is to scale down on food a bit. Two meals a day with snacks in between would probably suffice. Beverages were all excellently handled’.

What a dream vacation
Loved working with Danielle to plan our amazing vacation in the Caribbean.
She was super patient and helpful during these trying times of COVID
- but once we were able to get our trip booked — we had a FABULOUS time.
Namaste was the perfect catamaran for us - the crew went above and beyond to take care of our every need.
We all felt so pampered not only by the service but the fabulous food prepared for us each day by Lola and served with a super smile by Rachel.
Will and Brett helped us plan our fun days of adventures whether on land or playing with all the toys in the water.
This was definitely one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever had and look forward to planning the next trip.

‘’ Dear R.,
I hope you are well in this unusual times. For us it was hard to get back to Covid normality after 2 weeks of fantastic, pandemic free vacation.
We had a wonderful time. The Namaste Crew is really outstanding.
Willo is a great captain, one of the best! Georgia is really great, she cared in such an easy way and new so quick the preferences of every single of us and Jo is an amazing cook.
Even if she is no professional, she provided us with such healthy and delicious meals 3 to 4 times a day, and did not miss to amaze us at some occasions.
All together we had an amazing holiday, thank you very much R., for making this possible, especially in this crazy times.
There had been some problems to start this, thanks for helping us to go, we are so glad that this worked out!
Now we are back to lockdown and homeschooling. So it is fantastic to have something so nice to remember’’

Dear Willo, Sean, Georgia and Adrienne
What a truly magical si days ! We arrived tired, hungry and in a desperate need of true break and boy did you deliver !
It was true magic being a part of Namaste for these 6 days. The sailing, sun, care you all took for us magic potions that Georgia created and divine desserts (and everything else) that Adrienne whipped up for us were what the doctor ordered. We can’t wait to return !
All our best, C & T
2 days charter on November in Bermuda / 4 guests
Dear Willo, Sean, Georgia and Adrian,
Thank you for making this a dream vacation for us ! Each of you put so much care into everything. You did to make this such a special family trip. You planned so much for us and yet every day felt so relaxed. Four days felt like two weeks away !
Thank you for somehows anticipating every vacation wish what we had. From seabob adventures to snorkeling and seing tortles, tender rides to see ship wrecks, kayacking, exploring, afternoon cocktails in the jacuzzi and ever a movie right on the fly bridge complete with popcorn ! How we had room for popcorn. I don’t know because Adrian’s insanely good food had us all but licking our plates at every meal. It was though she knows the exact fantasy meals to put in front of us. And all the super special treats from homemade pastries, bread to out of this world desserts.
We honestly have never tasted such delicious food clearly prepared with love.
Georgia your way of taking care of our every need without us ever seing you do itw as magical. We would turn around and where would be a tray of beautiful and delicious afternoon drinks or we would go back to our room to change and poof beds were made. I don’t know how youd id think so quickly.
Sean your expert tender driving made what anyone lese would have turned back from onto an adventure what ended with amazing snorekling in turquoise waters. What you do always pulling out all the toys and taking the girls for the tube ride of their lives. Not to mention seabobs adventures we will talk about forever.
Willo, you make Namaste a family and a fantasy world wrapped into one ! Surprising us with pumpkins and acarving contest was one of the weetest memories we will have from the trip. With Georgia’s Halloween decoration and delicious desserts the last night was the best halloween party any of us will ever have been to.
Thank you all for making such a special trip.
And thanks so much to just be able to spend time with all of you but you did everything possible to make this a trip of a life for us all.
Love you guys ! Thank you !!!
