This experience, in a nutshell

It will be a week of relaxation, well-being, taste and fun.

Pampered by Giacomo (at the helm) and Laura (at the stove) you will spend 7 days immersed in the sea and nature of the Aeolian Islands, discovering this mythical volcanic archipelago, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2000, which has two islands with as many active volcanoes: Stromboli and Vulcano.

Between a swim, a sunbath and a bit of navigation, you reach the roadstead to taste Laura's dishes:

An authentic dive into the flavors and aromas of the Aeolian and Sicilian regions.

Another stretch of navigation and you reach another island for the evening aperitif,

ready to go ashore to discover the beauties of the new island.

The cruise is designed as a relaxing holiday, suitable for all ages, done in extreme safety.

Every evening you go ashore and, generally, there are no very long stretches of navigation.

No previous nautical experience is necessary.

As for the food, once you have purchased the experience, we will send you the reference menu so that you can report any intolerances, tastes and eating habits.

To date, Laura has managed to please all our guests, as you can see from the reviews.

NB: Minimum cabin reservation is required. Those traveling alone can request the price for the double cabin for single use by clicking on the "contact the organizer" button

End of season weekend in the Aeolian Islands

I come from the North Sea but I now live the Italian Alps and I’ve been really missing the ocean. So, after much thinking, I decided to treat myself to a little sailing holiday in October. [hidden] (the boat) is cozy yet has every comfort and the hosts really make you feel like you’re being treated to an Italian family gateway. Giacomo and Laura go above and beyond to fit everyone's need and requests. They exceeded my expectations! Great company, great food and insane landscapes! Nothing quite like sleeping under the stars, lulled by the gentle rocking of the boat. Thank you, I hope next time I can bring my family from Scotland!

Honestly, I had underestimated a sailing holiday in Sicily in October but instead it was unforgettable. The Aeolian Islands are even more beautiful in this period, being less crowded. Living them from the sea, guided by two local people, then, becomes a truly authentic experience! Thank you Giacomo and Thank you Laura, we will definitely be back this summer to be able to have even more fun with the longer 🌬️ days

End of October, I still want summer and I decide to do a little madness... on a sailing boat to the Aeolian Islands!! I was undecided but in the end I threw myself into it and I couldn't have made a better choice. The best boat, the best crew: the company, the food... everything really great!! What can I say: I'll be back in the summer!!

I have always dreamed of taking a sailing holiday and I treated myself to a mini-weekend in October: reality exceeded expectations! The Aeolian Islands are fantastic islands, the colors of the landscape surreal. Sturdust and his crew an excellent company. Thanks to Giacomo and Laura for their hospitality, 5 well-deserved stars on everything!
