Amazing experience

CORSICA SUD Paradise - catamaran cruise with hostess FULL BOARD

Please update your website to show the correct location of the new office. Very frustrating and stressful to find when it shows the old location. Mary (host) was exceptional and very hard working as was Fredric (Captain). The recently renovated boat (62ft Lagoon) was fantastic. Great routing with plenty of sailing and beautiful stops to swim. We will definitely use Dream Yacht again.

ATHENS Paradise - Catamaran cruise with hostess FULL BOARD

The islands are not great, Hydra and Spetzes are the only nice ones. The skipper was definitely unpleasant, he always took us to the ports immediately after lunch and the moorings in the bays were always almost offshore. Fortunately I had my sup to get closer but other older passengers found themselves in difficulty. He was also always nervous and responded very rudely. I was asked for a supplement for gluten and lactose free food of € 240 and for the first two days I was not given any substitute food, things were simply removed. Only after reporting the matter to sailsquare and the hostess did she organize herself a little better. I don't think I will repeat the experience with this group unfortunately.

GRENADINES Paradise - Week on a catamaran with hostess FULL BOARD

You couldn't expect more than one trip. The big new catamaran. A/C whenever needed and plenty of water. Captain Lutius could not be more professional and friendly. He made us all feel comfortable and always proposing to do different activities in a fun and casual atmosphere. Karin, the chef equally nice and funny. Very professional and attentive to our needs. The places we visited in a dream and despite some rains in general have been worth sailing out of season as we are practically alone in the most amazing places. We have always been lucky with the rest of the clients and in this case it has not been different and despite being mostly French-speaking we have communicated very well in English.
