Felix Guest Reviews
Our Crew - the Icing On The Cake
Amazing week of sailing in this wonderful area. Each of the overnight stays offered something different and were each special in their own way. Our crew of AJ, and Chilli were the icing on the cake. The briefing every morning gave us all the info for the day and suggestions for lunch/swimming spots on the way. AJ, our captain, has excellent knowledge of the local area and also helped with any sailing questions we had. Chilli was our social organizer, she organized everything down to the last detail! She knows everything about every place we stopped at and the best places to eat, moor and drink! It was our first trip in many years, but having had such a great experience we will be back very soon!
What A Week!
What a week! We were all very excited and very anxious about our first sailing vacation in nearly 20 years in equal measure. it didn´t disappoint, in fact I think I´m speaking for all the family to say we were really taken by the beauty, it´s people, places and atmosphere. We were provided a very comfortable, well appointed and maintained yacht that worked ideally for us; lots of space and sailed really easily for us rusty sailors. The vacation would not have been the same without our crew, they were amazing. From the energy, diligence, constantly smiling and nothing is too much trouble attitude from Chilly as host; to AJ the unflappable captain who gave us all the confidence to drop the anxiety and enjoy the sailing. The team striking the right balance of making it safe and fun, social and organized; yet giving everyone all the space they needed to enjoy the vacation with their own family, never in your faces, but always on hand at any time to help out when needed. Nothing ever feeling like it was a burden or a hassle. Any guest getting lead crew will be very lucky indeed.
Great Memories
What an amazing week sailing. Everything was thoroughly thought through making our first experience effortless. the cruising area is stunning and the people and food wonderful. In particular our crew of AJ and Chilly brought tremendous energy, fun and reassurance creating a really special environment for everyone. The boat was spotless and extremely well equipped allowing us to have AC, fresh water making and a BBQ by the diving platform. Not sure how we will beat this one! Thank you for great memories!!
Fantastic Vacation
What a fantastic vacation! The whole family enjoyed it immensely and can’t wait for our next trip. AJ and Chilly couldn’t have been better, managing the flotilla, weather, restaurant bookings and everything else seemingly effortlessly but with obvious care and great thoughtfulness. They worked excellently as a team, turning their hand to anything - nothing was too big or too small for them to help out with. They were great with the kids and made the whole experience fun for everyone. Thank you !
An Excellence Experience

A Week for Our Memory Books!

Broker Review
How did you find your crew? Were they friendly, knowledgeable, attentive and accommodating?
The crew was wonderful. Kayla and Chris fitted in with our family perfectly and made us feel comfortable and at home aboard Felix. Their humor and knowledge were both greatly appreciated!
Was the yacht comfortable, clean and well ventilated? What was your
favorite aspect of the yacht?
The yacht was very comfortable and clean. It had all of the accommodations we needed, nothing was missing. Personally I enjoyed the various different viewpoints to sit or lounge at while we went from island to island.
Was the food enjoyable and well presented? Did the chef customize the
menu to your preferences?
The food was fantastic; Chris truly spoiled us! I personally have a challenging diet with several allergies and he made sure every meal felt complete vs feeling like an, “allergy friendly,” meal. And it was all delicious!
Did you enjoy the itinerary and the area you sailed?
1000%. Every day of the charter my love for the Virgin Islands grew.
Were you happy with your broker´s service? How can we improve?
Very happy.
Can we share your feedback with the yacht/crew?
Absolutely! We miss them already!
I Loved Being On This Yacht
Zack and Taylor, I loved this trip so much. I had so much fun. I am so thankful that we met you two. From late night games to riding on the dinghy spending time with you was so much fun. I loved being on this yacht and wished we could stay here for longer. Thank you for a great week with great relationships.

Snorkeling was the Best!
Taylor and Zack, this whole trip has been a blast, one of my favorites. I learned so many new things like skip-bo, cooking, baking. Snorkeling was the best! Thank you so much for the best week of my life.
Zack and Taylor, What can we say? What an amazing week of fun in the sun. We couldn´t ask for a more attentive and gracious crew/hosts. From sailing the open water to the beaches to snorkeling, you two have made this a trip of a lifetime. Taylor, the food was amazeballs and your attention to Camille made my heart smile. You will truly be an amazing mother one day!!! Zack, your skills, safety and knowledge of all things sea-worthy are unmatched. We really appreciate your efforts to keep us busy at all times. Last but not least, the flying fish!! I personally could do that for days. I know the girls loved it as well.

A Week of Laughs, Fun, New Memories and Experiences
Dear Zack and Taylor, What an amazing week this has been.. one full week of laughs, fun, new memories, new islands and experiences, and super smooth sailing with amazing food.
Taylor, the food was delicious and I will be reaching out for the green goddess dip, avocado pasta recipe, and your homemade burritos/ chips. I loved your daily board and food presentations.
Zack - thank you for truly making the daily sail trips comfortable, safe, all while answering our questions and accommodating our requests. I wish you both the best in your future adventures.
One Big Family Now
Captain - thank you so much for navigating us safely thru the BVI´s, ensuring we had an awesome time playing with all the water toys and snorkel gear and keeping our drinks chilled and beer on ice!
Chef Taylor - you are such a talented chef! We all raved all week on how delicious all your homemade food was.
Most importantly, thank you both for making sure we had a trip of a lifetime!! We feel like one big family with you both now and will most certainly keep in touch in the future.
Thank You For Everything!!!
The most fabulous surprise this week was the cooking. The variety and ingenious recipes- all of them health foods, blew my mind. It´s the first time ever I really enjoyed health conscious cooking. There were meals- your baked eggs, my favorite - that were shockingly tasty. Thank you for everything. You adapted to our dietary choices. One pescatarian, dairy free, gluten free, and spice intolerance. And like magic came up with recipes that were both gorgeous and delicious, filling and healthy. You did it with love and enthusiasm-including the menu board done with calligraphy. And the boat was so comfy.
Zack our captain always with a good plan and smooth ride with a happy and kind demeanor. You were so thoughtful in your explanations and feedback was so positive and thoughtful.Way beyond your years. Wish every man was as good to his lady and other women as you. The world would be a better place. Your humor was always kind and silly fun. And the dives were wonderful.
Bottom line, I´d love to adopt you. Be proud of you for your resourceful, mindful energy- it´s beautiful. Thank you so much for a week of restoration in this stressful time. So good to find. Don´t lose your mojo - its precious. Call me when you hit SoCal.
What An Adventure
Taylor and Zack, what an adventure....beyond every expectation. ´Service´ with a smile. Sailing smoothly, diving beautifully.
The cuisine- gourmet, inventive, delicious, and so amazingly flexible and tasty.
Captain´s cocktails were perfect.
The company, we loved our interactions.
You both are so wonderful and so very hardworking. You excellence made it an excellent trip. We will miss you both and look forward to the next time our tradewinds put us in the same path. Stay on your journeys. Until we meet again!
The World Is Better Having You In It.
It was such a pleasure to meet both of you. You both are so unique with wonderful energy. I feel very lucky to have met you and look forward to keeping in touch. Taylor, please publish your recipes! You have a real gift and the world will fall in love with your dishes. Most importantly, you both are really special and the world is better for having you in it.
Wow-Oh-Wow
Wow-oh-wow Zack, you are a great captain and what a tremendous week we have had here in the virgin islands.
You rocked out so many fun activities for us:
Scuba diving
The octopus shipwreck
Penetrating the steel structure and exploring the engine room!!!
Jane loved watching Felix (son) wakeboard with RIzzo as your copilot in the tender from the stand up paddle board in the beautiful bay off Virgin Gorda. (our favorite island)
Greg and Jane watched you sail or motor almost every moment of the adventure and sure appreciated the knowledge bestowed from the helm!
and.... Sweet Southern Taylor! How we enjoyed your delicious, culinary offerings! Especially the fabulous nightly sweet treats!
You were a vital member of our rowdy night out at Willy T´s´ from the shotski to the dance floor...and don´t forget about the belly laughing over the pirates creed.
As much as Jane loved swimming and being beachy with Rizzo, he so enjoyed arting and gaming in the kitchen with you that we adults ( plus teenager) had some special moments away from big parenting responsibility,
Thanks so much for that amazing space to relax and unwind.
Can´t wait to connect again on the great mother´s waters.
So Much Fun
Taylor, I´ve had so much fun with you in the kitchen!! I loved when you played games with us and I really enjoyed when we stayed back from the hike and it was just us two!!! I´ll miss you!
Zack, thank you for keeping us safe with your sailing skills! I really liked when you took us out for a sunset dinghy ride, I also liked when we sang the 100 bottles of beer song! We will miss you all so much. Thank you!
You Made Us Feel So Comfortable!
This has been such an amazing trip because of Taylor and Zack! You all have been so kind, helpful, and it is so great how well you work as a team. Taylor, your food was so amazing and never failed to make us happy. You were also so helpful and fun. The games we played were so fun and you always let us help you cook.
Zack, you are an amazing captain. You were also having a good time with us from fun facts and learning games. You were a great hiking leader. You both were so involved with us which made us more comfortable. Thank you so much for a great trip. I will always remember this.
10/10
This was 10/10 easily the best trip I have ever taken. Both of you are really awesome people, some of the best that I know. Taylor, you make the best food I have ever tasted and are super fun to hang out with. Zack, you know all the secrets to all the islands and are pretty tough and super fun to hang out with. Thank you for the best trip of my short life...so far. Maybe next year will be even better.
Packed With Experiences
Thank you for an enjoyable week of sailing and exploring. Very much enjoyed meeting you both and incorporating you into our family while in the USVI. It went by so quickly but was packed with so many unique experiences, beach time, hiking, ruins, snorkeling (day and night), and many water sports. Great time!
Activity Filled Week!
Zack and Taylor, this has been an amazing week. We have done so much that it is really hard to pick one favorite. Hiking, snorkeling, swimming, tubing, wakeboarding, puzzles, games, stories, sunsets, beautiful views, great music, and so much more! I can´t believe how much we packed into one week.
Food...Where do I start? Every meal and snack was so thoughtful and accommodating to our families. Everything was delicious and beautiful. I will definitely be texting you for recipes.
This is in the books with one of our favorite vacations, with a lot of new amazing memories which you will forever be part of! Stay in touch and let us know if you are ever is Louisville.
Unforgettable Vacation
Thank you so much! The boat, the toys, the islands, the food, the games, the snorkeling, was amazing. But, Zack and Taylor made this one of our most unforgettable vacations ever! You guys were just part of our family. Appreciate the work, time, and love you invested in us. We will never forget this trip. Thank you and best wishes of bright future.
Calling Foodies!
This is definitely a yacht for foodies. The food and drinks will leave you wanting more. Taylor´s food and drinks are amazing! Zack is a wonderful yachtsman. He knows his places and having him share where to go next every evening was very informative. They really made this trip a lot of fun and very enjoyable for us.
Wonderful!
Our experience with Zack and Taylor was WONDERFUL! Taylor is an incredible chef, every meal was somehow better than the last. The desserts were out of this world. Zack and Taylor both made excellent drinks and kept them flowing! Zack was also super helpful around the boat. Thank you both.
Amazing Team!
Amazing experience. Outstanding food each and every time.
Zack and Taylor are an amazing team. Looking forward to next time.
Awesome Duo!
If I can make a recommendation
-bloody marys
-egg rolls
-lobster dip and lobster tails
Zack and Taylor are an awesome duo. They kept us fed, hydrated, and super entertained. Looking forward to the next trip.
A Key Lime Pie to die for, thanks for such a memorable trip!
What an amazing adventure! Zack and Taylor were great hosts. We sailed and stopped at so many great locations, so it´s hard to pick a favorite. I think Christmas Cove was my favorite snorkeling spot. Saw amazing coral, fish, rays, and starfish! Zack was always accommodating or making sure we went to locations that met our devices. Chef Taylor - Wow! The food was incredible! I´m sure the scales will confirm that I enjoyed everything Taylor prepared for us. I´m having a hard time coming up with a favorite entree but dessert...hands down for me was the Key Lime pie. Taylor uses many unique and delicious flavors to enhance everything she cooks. The presentations are pure art work. It was fun to see Taylor and Zack working as a team in the kitchen. Thanks for a memorable vacation.
Thank you so much for a beautiful trip through the Virgin Islands!
Thank you so much for a beautiful trip through the Virgin Islands. The Felix offered great spaces for relaxing, reading, eating, playing games etc. Zack and Taylor were great hosts. Very flexible and accommodating, showing us so many private spots to chill. Food was unbelievable - nice job Taylor. Looking forward to your blog and recipe book :) Visit all of us in Michigan anytime! We would love to show you around.
This charter has been a long time (30 plus years) dream of ours!
We had an amazing time on the Felix with Zack and Taylor. This has been a long time (30 plus years) dream of ours. It exceeded our expectations. Zack is a knowledgeable captain. We felt safe at all times. He was full of information about the islands and always took us someplace interesting and fun. We especially enjoyed snorkeling at Monkey Point and Christmas Cove. Visiting the Baths was an especially nice trip. Zack also is a great scuba instructor. Doing a refresher course and dive was great. So the only thing bad I can say about Taylor´s cooking was that my clothes are so tight as I prepare to leave! Steak and lobster were so good. As was the korean kabobs and Key Lime pie (BEST EVER!) The Felix is a great boat. Comfortable and well outfitted but Taylor and Zack made the trip! You became like family Visit Michigan some day!
Knowledgeable and Professional
Thank you Captain Zack and Chef Taylor for a wonderful week on Felix. We couldn´t have asked for a better time! Both Zack and Taylor were friendly and enthusiastic about showing us all the BVI and USVI has to offer. Both are extremely knowledgeable, professional, and open to ideas and we always felt safe and comfortable. Besides knowing everything there is to know about marine life, Zack went above and beyond with taking our teenage crosscountry enthusiast son on trail runs and explored other islands. Taylor always made sure we were full and satisfied - her dishes were consistently tasty. Thank you Felix and crew, we hope to be back again soon!
Thank you Felix and Crew
Thank you very much for our time on the Felix. We could not have had a better time. Even with one night of rain you all made it a blast. We loved having Zack go out snorkeling in the water with us. He was able to show and teach us so much about marine life. Taylor´s food kept us full and was yummy. The Low Country Boil was delicious. There is so much to do you will never get bored. A vacation of a lifetime. Thank you Felix and crew.

Exceeded Our Expectations
This trip has been a bucket list vacation for the last 10 years! With all the build up and daydreaming you would have thought we might end up ´romanticizing´ it more than possible, not at all!
In every way, the trip exceeded expectations, gourmet cuisine, unlimited activity, the ´spots´..., all while enjoying your gracious hospitality! You balanced rest with fun for all in a way that would elude most. Thank you for hosting memorable days and all of the Hard Work!! Your efforts have facilitated life long memories for all! We could have never imagined all that we would see, do and enjoy!
Your guests are lucky to get you! And...we were lucky to spend the week with you!
Fair winds and following seas!
An Adventurous Week
That was one hell of an adventurous week! Thank you for helping us be ´life hogs´. Although Nana lobbied hard to join you for the rest of the sailing season we are going to drag her off the boat to the flight. This vacation is in our ´ALL TIMER´ list of great vacations! Thanks for the fun, laughs, drinks, food, sailing, diving, snorkeling, and all around good times!
Dynamic Duo
Truly amazing! What a glorious time we all had and it was made especially awesome by you two - the ultimate dynamic duo! We felt so taken care of and loved by you guys - we´ve all agreed that we´ll miss you two as much as the Virgin Islands!
