Crystal Dreams Guest Reviews

The Ultimate Getaway Experience

By: Sarah and James W.

We just returned from a week aboard Rebecca and Dylan´s charter in the BVI, and we’re already dreaming of our next trip. Dylan’s expertise as a captain made every moment at sea feel safe and effortless. His knowledge of the islands meant we discovered hidden coves and pristine beaches we’d never have found on our own.

Rebecca’s culinary skills were out of this world! Every meal was to die for—from fresh seafood dinners to indulgent desserts. She even accommodated my husband’s gluten intolerance with ease.

This trip was everything we hoped for and more. Whether you’re looking for adventure, relaxation, or a mix of both, Rebecca and Dylan deliver an unforgettable experience.

Perfect Honeymoon

By: Amanda and Tom K.

Our honeymoon on Rebecca and Dylan’s charter was nothing short of magical. Dylan planned the perfect itinerary, balancing time at lively harbors with quiet, romantic spots. His stories and deep understanding of the islands made the trip so much more meaningful.

Rebecca’s food was absolutely divine! Breakfasts with fresh tropical fruits, lunches of Caribbean-inspired dishes, and candlelit dinners—every bite was a dream. She even surprised us with a special champagne toast and dessert on our last night to celebrate our new life together.

This trip exceeded all our expectations. We can’t thank Rebecca and Dylan enough for making our honeymoon unforgettable.

A Family Adventure to Remember

By: The Johnson Family

We booked Rebecca and Dylan’s charter for a family trip, and it was the best decision ever. Dylan was wonderful with our kids, letting them help steer the boat and teaching them about marine life. He even found the perfect snorkeling spots where we swam with turtles and vibrant fish.

Rebecca kept us well-fed with her incredible cooking! The kids loved her homemade pizzas, and we adults were spoiled with her gourmet meals. She also created kid-friendly snacks for our adventures, which was such a thoughtful touch.

This was a family vacation we’ll never forget. If you’re looking for a fun, family-friendly charter experience, Rebecca and Dylan are the ones to book with!

Luxury and Relaxation at Its Best

By: David and Emily P.

Rebecca and Dylan redefined what luxury and relaxation mean to us. From the moment we stepped aboard, we felt pampered. Dylan’s calm and professional demeanor gave us complete confidence as we sailed through the turquoise waters of the BVI. He found quiet anchorages where we could truly unwind.

Rebecca’s cooking was a highlight of the trip. Every meal was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The seafood dishes were particularly memorable—fresh, light, and full of Caribbean flair.

We’ve done several charters in the past, but none have come close to the level of care, attention, and expertise Rebecca and Dylan provide. Highly recommend!

A Girl’s Trip for the Books

By: Olivia R. and Friends

Rebecca and Dylan’s charter was the perfect setting for our girls’ trip! Dylan planned a fun and flexible itinerary that included plenty of beach time, paddleboarding, and sunset sails. His easygoing personality made us all feel at ease.

Rebecca’s food was next level. She created a mix of healthy dishes and indulgent treats that satisfied everyone’s cravings. Her cocktails were also a huge hit.

If you’re considering a getaway with friends, book Rebecca and Dylan. You won’t regret it!







I have had the privilege of working with Rebecca in and out of the kitchen. Her work ethic and commitment to excellence is out of this world. The attention to detail in her meals, the flavor combinations and textures, it all speaks to a talent far beyond her young years. I would highly recommend Rebecca, and more importantly, I highly recommend her food.

An Unforgettable Sailing Experience – Five Stars All Around!

I recently had the pleasure of chartering a sailing catamaran, and I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional experience provided by our captain and chef duo. From the moment we stepped aboard, their professionalism, warmth, and attention to detail set the tone for an unforgettable journey.

The captain’s expertise was evident in every aspect of the trip—from seamless navigation through stunning anchorages to confidently handling the vessel in varying conditions. He effortlessly combined skill with a calm demeanor, ensuring we always felt safe and well-informed about our itinerary and daily plans.

The chef was equally impressive, creating restaurant-quality meals that delighted us at every sitting. Each dish was beautifully presented and thoughtfully prepared, with flavors that exceeded all expectations. Whether it was a gourmet breakfast enjoyed with panoramic ocean views or a sunset dinner under the stars, every meal felt like a special occasion.

Together, this captain and chef team worked in perfect harmony, anticipating our needs before we even voiced them and ensuring every detail was flawlessly executed. Their passion for their roles shone through in their service, and their friendly yet professional approach made us feel both pampered and completely at ease.

This charter wasn’t just a vacation; it was an experience I’ll cherish forever. I would highly recommend this incredible team to anyone looking for a world-class sailing adventure. Thank you both for an unforgettable trip—I’m already dreaming of the next one!

What a beautiful week!

What a beautiful week! We could not have had better weather, the boat was amazing - all of the amenities you could ask for on a boat. The hike up to Rams head was well worth it, Don´t let the look of the distance stop you! Snorkelling at Sal pond was great too. Lime out was great, all the tacos were very good. Anything that we asked for, Heinrych went out of his way to get. Majori´s homemade scones were great!
