Our Beneteau Oceanis 46 boat (14 meters) is available only with captain and hostess for up to 4 guests. We are professionals in the hospitality field and can guarantee a high level of accuracy and quality in all aspects of comfort and special care in the preparation of meals and in the choice of raw materials and wines (the captain is also a sommelier!)
Our starting point for this summer is the exclusive Marina Cala dei Sardi, located in the heart of the Costa Smeralda between Porto Rotondo and Porto Cervo: very close to Olbia, a destination for numerous flights and ferries, but at the same time located in a natural setting absolute tranquility and privacy.
If you're wondering why we didn't choose the weekend for embarking and disembarking from mid-July to the end of August, it's easy to say: a wit to avoid leaving and returning to port when everyone does (we'll have it practically all for us…) and the possibility of booking flights to Olbia at a much cheaper price . And since the disembarkation is on a Monday, when you are on the mainland you will not run into weekend traffic! In short, even on the Costa Smeralda away from the madding crowd..
We will begin your holiday by welcoming you with an aperitif / welcome dinner on board , an opportunity also for a safety briefing on the boat: a few rules, but necessary to make your holiday safe, unique and unforgettable. The following morning, or the same evening winds permitting, we will let go of the moorings towards one of the most beautiful navigations you can imagine.
Our itineraries will vary mainly between the numerous coves of the Costa Smeralda and the spectacular Maddalena park , places famous all over the world for their special conformation that makes them perfect for sailing and for the beauty of the colors of the sea and the land , rich in pink granite. The sites where we will stop are only a few miles away from each other and we will make the right navigation to fully enjoy these wonderful places.
If the weather permits and if you wish, we can also cross the Strait of Bonifacio and venture into the waters of the beautiful Southern Corsica with the islands of Lavezzi and Cavallo, the beautiful bay of Rondinara and a stop in Bonifacio.
During our holiday we will stay at anchor in the harbor to let you try what for us is incomparable: the bath or the morning swim while they are preparing breakfast ... and when it's the day of the Captain who makes his wonderful crepes ... it's pure paradise .
At the time of booking you will let us know what your tastes and expectations are, so the Captain will be able to create a "tailor-made" holiday for you, it being understood that the itineraries may be subject to change depending on the weather conditions. We will supply the galley and, unless you wish otherwise, all meals will be prepared and served on board by Cinzia (breakfast, lunch and dinner), which includes a weekly menu based on fresh produce, balancing vegetables, meat and fish with recipes already highly appreciated by our regular guests, and once a week, a barbecue!
Every day there is also a rich aperitif at sunset.
We will also contact you about a week before your arrival to find out what your breakfast preferences are; for lunch and dinner, for example if you want a menu based only on fish, or vegetarian, or gluten-free, and your tastes regarding the wine cellar.
In short, an à la carte treatment so that you can enjoy your holiday to the fullest. Since we love the sea and nature, separate waste collection is carried out on board and our guests are provided with ecological soap in respect of the ecosystem and, a very important aspect, we will try to use the engine only when strictly necessary.
Michel, having participated in various courses of the prestigious French school "Les Glénans" will be happy to explain you the fundamental rudiments of sailing following their tradition, and offer you an introduction to the use of the latest generation electronic instruments (plotter, AIS, digital radar and various industry software).
Cinzia, in addition to having a boat license, is a university teacher of the body awareness course: if you want, you can discover with her all the benefits of conscious breathing and much more.
We remind you that the fee includes the linen of the cabins, bath and beach towels and that upon your arrival you will find everything prepared for you, as our experience in the world of hospitality has taught us: our guests don't have to think of anything , just to enjoy the holiday!
