This experience, in a nutshell

The boat of your dreams in Greece

Imagine 7 days aboard an elegant 17-metre Jeanneau 54 DS , on an exclusive cruise designed for just 4 guests. An experienced and professional crew will take care of you: skipper and hostess/chef will pamper you with attention, excellent cuisine and safe and relaxing navigation.

Starting from Skiathos, we will explore Skopelos, Alonissos, Kyra Panagia, Agios Stephanos, until we arrive in Limnos, from where you can return to Athens thanks to daily flights on Saturday or Sunday.

The boat is perfectly equipped for offshore sailing (battened mainsail, gennaker, electric winches), but also incredibly comfortable: sun cushions, hydraulic gangway, tender with outboard, SUP board to have fun on the water.

Guests stay in two spacious double cabins with joinable beds, air conditioning and an en-suite bathroom with electric toilet. There is also a third "sporty" cabin, with a bunk bed and independent entrance, ideal for a boy or girl.

On board you will find a warm welcome, carefully prepared Mediterranean cuisine and hotel-level service. The days pass slowly between swimming in dream bays, snorkeling, reading in the sun, aperitifs at sunset and dinners under the stars.

Every morning Luciana prepares a rich breakfast, then sets sail to reach new bays where you can relax or explore the seabed. Lunch is served in the cockpit, often in a different setting from that of the morning. The afternoon is dedicated to navigation: those who want can participate in the maneuvers. Renato will be happy to let you steer and teach you how to best adjust jib and mainsail.

In the evening we dock in picturesque marinas where you can dine in the tavern or, with the right conditions, sleep in the roadstead after a romantic dinner under the starry sky.

We have been sailing in the Mediterranean for years and love to share with guests our passion for lonely bays, nature, slow rhythms and magical Greek hospitality. Every day is different, with cultural discoveries, panoramic views, small villages and typical dishes: a truly unforgettable experience!

Had a wonderful time sailing with Renato and Luciana on their 54 Jenneau sail boat "Lulu"! The boat is very comfortable and sea kindly and Renato is an expert captain and "Lulu" a fantastic chef meals onboard were delishious! They know the best ports harbors and bays for swimming and sightseeing ashore. It was a great vacation plus sailing vacation very highly recommended and would definitely go again!

Unique experience, with two professionals of the sea. The sailing holiday always reserves many adventures and unlike many other experiences it relies heavily on the sensitivity of the skipper to define the daily program based on the weather forecast. Renato, with his vast experience, managed to bring out the best out of the week, making us explore extraordinarily beautiful places. Lulú seasoned everything with style and attention to detail, delighting us with his excellent cuisine. The boat is gorgeous, spotless and reliable! Highly recommended.

Beautiful boat, really well cared for. Each destination was successfully reached and each location was an interesting dock and place to visit. Excellent meals on board. Perfect cleanliness. Great tips for eating on dry land. I deliberately chose the "sailor's cabin" that I found fun and equipped. Physical agility required to take advantage of it. Too bad too hot in the afternoon for me that I'm used to rest. I had my own little fan for the night . Due to its location in the bow, it grants privacy. Impacting the impatience of the captain during maneuvers or practical activities on board. At first it made me feel out of place but after a clarification, we settled down. It can be hard for some owners to relate even with indolent guests on vacation but I seek relaxation and travel experiences. However, I would leave immediately on Lulu boat with Luciana and Renato, Silvia Michele Antonio and Paolo, TOP holiday companions

++wild bays visited ++food on the boat boat ++beautiful, ++maintained and ++comfortable +treated like private guests -not like paying customers -every act (wake up, breakfast, swimming, changing back to dry clothes, smoking..) was strictly timed. Without ANY obvious reason (plenty of time to sail to the next point) -6 sailing days booked. In total only 3 hours on sail, the rest on motor (no wind when we were out) & 2 days spent in harbors because the wind could be too strong. No effort made when noticed that we could have have (sportively) sailed. Frustrating to see sailing boats offshore while being on a beach/village -communication rather existent. When R. feels challenged by a question, he overreacts (Ex: by leaving the commands of the boat to us because we dared to ask if we could use sails instead of motor OR by calling us "new rich people" when we asked for the final count for the EUR 400 pp for the current expenses.) -age 48?!? -no instruction -feeling to be at the wrong place -------- SKIPPER ANSWER ------------- Dear Frederic, We are sorry that your first boat experience did not meet your expectations. On the boat there are rules to be respected regarding smoking (unthinkable to smoke while sailing and in the cabin!), order and cleanliness so that everyone is comfortable. The itinerary you have chosen (From Athens to Kos) is an adventurous choice for those who love to travel many miles. Unfortunately the wind cannot be booked and when it is too strong for safety reasons we stop. Sailing cannot be learned in a week and neither can education. Leave the cabin in the shameful condition in which you left it (literally throw away sheets) and then ask for the final report, which, as you were told, can be consulted at any time and available to everyone (with receipts and invoices) on the table from correspondence, two days after finishing the cruise, it is incomprehensible. It was not a pleasant experience for us.
