February 14, 2024, Grenadine Islands Meeting both of you has been a real pleasure. We feel like you have become instant friends of ours. The hospitality that you both have showed each of us, has been remarkable. Laurent was so kind and could not do enough to make Gracie and Chase feel at home, in the water and out of the water. He took the time to always tell them where to go for the best snorkelling and gave them so much information. Astrid, an artist indeed! Every meal was absolutely beau.
Experience of a lifetime. We will remember both of you fondly!

January 18, 2024, This trip has surpassed our expectations
Dear Astrid, dear Laurent (Les formidables) We were able to make a long-held wish come true on your beautiful Isolablue. Sailing, diving, snorkeling, dreaming and relaxing in the Caribbean. The turquoise sea, the green islands, the sun and wind... and we left behind us the everyday life and the dreary weather. But the cherry on the cake and the most valuable thing on our dream trip was meeting you both. You made sure that we felt welcome from the first moment on board (and even before in the vi.

8-17 MARCH 2022 A wonderful once-in-a-lifetime experience
We came for dining but quickly changed our expectations after the first sight of Astrid’s cooking. As one course followed another, we were thinking she must have a mermaid aboard to help her with the plate. We never saw the mermaid, but never stopped believing that magic was being performed on board, whatever the source. At it’s core, the source was one of enormous creativity, boundless imagination and warm hospitality. In a dream like state we believed we had arrived in Paradise on Board of.

We will most definitely see you again and want to learn to explore more in your safe hands. Thank you both so much Jude.
7th January 2022 Exceeded everything I could have hoped for
We could not have dreamed of a more perfect week. Isolablue became our home away from home, because of the two of you. Thank you for the beautiful dives, your skillful captaining, the INCREDIBLE vegan food, the Martini ´Salade´, your good humor, a memorable night at the Lobster BBQ and hiding from the rain, your warmth, and for making us feel so comfortable, relaxed and happy. We’ll never forget this week. Ever. Merci bien !!! Laurie, Jeff and Jack.

I want to let you know we had a really great time on Isolablue. The yacht was very well maintained and it was obvious Laurent and Astrid took great care and pride in the boat. Talking of Laurent and Astrid, well what two great people. We enjoyed their company and their professionalism. Laurent was very happy to have me skipper the boat everyday which was exactly what I wanted as well as finding those great locations to snorkel and relax. Astrid was an absolutely fabulous chef. As you know,.
25 NOV - 5 DEC 2021 The whole experience surpassed our expectations
Astrid, Laurent, Exceptional experiences are often dulled by the absence of family and friends. Our exceptional experiences on this trip have been multiplied by both. Our list of favorites: swimming with the manta rays, diving with Laurent, snorkeling Horseshoe Reef, turtle watching, the lobster BBQ, and exploring the various islands – were even better because of your excitement as well. Our week can be summarized in one word. “Joyeuse!”. The joy of experiencing God’s creation up close,.
OCTOBER 2021 You have brought joy to our family and this is a gift beyond measure
It’s quite a challenge to begin describing the most perfect vacation, but for us, this picture sums it up… Astrid and Laurent. They warmly and graciously invited us into their lives and their beautiful home Isolablue for ten glorious days. Then proceeded to treat us like royalty for the entire time. Just a few of the delicious lunches that Astrid created for us. Beautifully presented and every mouthful a delight. Healthy too! Laurent washes up after yet another fantastic meal and he’s .

NOVEMBER - DECEMBER, 2019 - MARTINIQUE TO GRENADA - 5 STARS!!
We have just returned from a Caribbean cruise. If you are looking for outstanding charter yachts, I would like to briefly describe what we have encountered: We were concerned to come to this area, on a foreign ship. We were very worried in regards to the quality, the sailing and cleanliness of the ship, the competence and hospitality of the owner couple and general concerns about whether the Caribbean has still anything to offer us. So we are all the more pleased that the holidays were a comp.
NOVEMBER 2019 - A complete success evaluation from a very happy client
Dear Astrid and Laurent, What a fabulous week! I will never forget my wonderful birthday celebration and lobster lunch on Tobago Cays, it was a very special experience. I cannot find the words to express it. We feel very fortunate to have met you both. Astrid, you have set the bar so high I fear I will have to go to cooking school to be able to compete with your restaurant quality meals. We cannot wait for our next trip aboard Isolablue!

MARCH, 2019 ~ AWESOME BIRTHDAY!
Dearest Astrid & Laurent, Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing, exquisite vacation for all. Although we did not see the “great white”, you have had the luxury of being on board with at least two great whites (and growing). Isolablue and your warm, generous hospitality & entertainment joins the “one thousand places to visit” before you die. We are pleased we added to your musical repertoire - Tobago Cays lobsters, Mustique, Bequia, Canouan diving are memories we shall blissfully remember.
MARCH, 2019 ~ The two of you who brought it all together
As you know, we enjoyed every minute in Laurent’s company. He was friendly, kind and generous - and also an amazing Captain and Dive Instructor. Astrid is a spectacular chef and a joy to be around. Her infectious smile can’t help but set the tone for a great days adventure. We all had tears when we departed as we will truly miss their company! The yacht was very comfortable for a family of 5 and extremely well organized, clean and welcoming. We loved the itinerary route and the time spent a.

2019 NEW YEARS IN GRENADINES - No better way to ring in the New Year than with you both
Award-winning Chef Astrid took first place at the 2018 Grenada Charter Yacht Show Culinary Competition. Guests rave about her cooking, even the youngest ones. Once upon a time there was a child who was a little bit picky with his food. He only loved tomatoes, cucumber and carrots as vegetables. Astrid to the rescue! “I started to present the dishes in a funny way,” Astrid explained. “He started eating much more than usual. His parents just loved seeing him so quiet and pleased at table. .
4-19 DECEMBER 2018 - THANK YOU FOR THESE MOMENTS!
Many thanks for making our dream a reality. This trip with you was simply magical, and in addition to discovering new paradise islands, we met two very beautiful people, and enjoyed every anecdote or experience you shared with us, just like the culinary delights of the Chef! We are already longing to come back for new adventures around Antigua. Good luck and see you soon, Pascale & Christine .
MAGICAL DREAM COME TRUE
THANK YOU FOR THESE 3 UNFORGETTABLE DAYS. Initially, I was just an added patch, as a ´leech´ journalist who has been hanging on to Jo and Leila for a long time. This is my last trip to the Caribbean. We had planned to leave the 4 (with Sylviane) to Union. 2 days before my arrival, I am told: ´We will go by boat with Swiss people, it will be great´. I did not know what to expect ... Arriving on Isolablue, it´s as if we arrive in the extension of our house. Laurent and Astrid welcome you wit.

Astrid and Laurent
Captain Laurent is setting the sails
Astrid
Laurent grew up in Paris, France. Urban life did not deter this water baby, who learned to swim and sail a Laser 420 as a child, and to scuba dive at the age of 12, with level three qualifications at 16 years old. He moved to Switzerland when he was 22 years old, purchased a Laser 2, and spent all his free time trimming the sails on Lake Geneva.
Laurent graduated college with a degree in economics and enjoyed a long career in the Swiss private banking industry as a stock exchange trader and operations specialist. In addition to his job as a banker, he co-owned a dive shop and school on the Lake of Geneva. Laurent is a high-energy individual that thrives on keeping busy, so he also played bass and guitar in a local band. Laurent is a qualified PADI Dive Instructor. He holds Swiss cert. of competence for ocean yachting and the professional BVI Boat Master.
In 2015, Laurent and his wife Astrid decided it was time for a life change. They bought a catamaran and set off to sail the Mediterranean Sea. They skimmed past Gibraltar in 2016, spent two months in the Canary Islands and three months in the Cap Verde Islands before crossing the Atlantic. It was love at first sight when they reached the Caribbean, and they’ve decided to stay for quite a while.
Laurent is an expert Captain who enjoys sharing his knowledge and passion for Caribbean sailing with his guests. His motto: living your dream is always better than dreaming your life. Charter ISOLABLUE with Laurent and Astrid. Isn’t it time to live your dream?
Chef Astrid Geslin
Astrid had an enchanting childhood. She grew up with her brother and sister close to Luzern, in the heart of Switzerland, near the Alps and next to the Lake of Lucerne. Nestled in this picture-postcard landscape was her parents’ restaurant. Even as a very young child, Astrid loved to help with the cooking. Growing up cooking, serving and eating fine food proved a joyful inspiration. However, whether they be lakes or seas, water has always been her passion: sailing, diving, windsurfing, and swimming. Astrid is a qualified PADI Dive Master. She also holds Swiss cert. of competence for ocean yachting / BVI Boat Master.
For over 20 years, Astrid worked in Geneva, Switzerland as a Human Resources executive. One of the great benefits was the extensive, international travel the job required to start-up offices in Zürich, Paris, Milan and elsewhere. In between these working adventures, she and husband Laurent spent as much time as possible sailing their boat across the waters of Lake Geneva. Astrid obtained Sailing Certification for Lakes, then passed the Swiss Certificate of Competence for Ocean Yachting and the BVI Boat Master. It was a perfect time to sail to new horizons.
Astrid is always happy to receive guests and share moments of discovery and joy. “Every charter is a rewarding, new, enriching experience made of encounters, good humor and fun,” says Astrid. “I speak fluent French, English and German, some Italian and Spanish. I try to welcome our guests in their own language and make them feel at home. I’m passionate about fine food from all over the world. My recipes are inspired from Mediterranean and Asian cuisine, but always with a French touch.”
While Astrid’s cooking consistently earns rave reviews, guests needn’t worry about gaining a couple of extra pounds. Astrid enjoys leading a workout, from on-deck yoga to a lap around the yacht, to a go on the water toys. And fun is always her leading motivator.
Astrid was awarded FIRST PRIZE at the Grenada Yacht Charter Show 2018 Culinary Contest! Well done Astrid!!
Astrid commented:
I wanted to present the 3 different colors of Grenada:
green for the fertile land;
yellow for the wisdom, sunshine, and warmth of Grenadians and
red for the people’s courage and vitality. The people here are what make the Island of Spice so unique.
The specified ingredient was Tamarin juice. My idea was to create a Tamarin reduction which I added in all three finger entrees.

Crew
Laurent grew up in Paris, France. Urban life did not deter this water baby, who learned to swim and sail a Laser 420 as a child, and to scuba dive at the age of 12, with level three qualifications at 16 years old. He moved to Switzerland when he was 22 years old, purchased a Laser 2, and spent all his free time trimming the sails on Lake Geneva.
Laurent graduated college with a degree in economics and enjoyed a long career in the Swiss private banking industry as a stock exchange trader and operations specialist. In addition to his job as a banker, he co-owned a dive shop and school on the Lake of Geneva. Laurent is a high-energy individual that thrives on keeping busy, so he also played bass and guitar in a local band. Laurent is a qualified PADI Dive Instructor. He holds Swiss cert. of competence for ocean yachting and the professional BVI Boat Master.
In 2015, Laurent and his wife Astrid decided it was time for a life change. They bought a catamaran and set off to sail the Mediterranean Sea. They skimmed past Gibraltar in 2016, spent two months in the Canary Islands and three months in the Cap Verde Islands before crossing the Atlantic. It was love at first sight when they reached the Caribbean, and they’ve decided to stay for quite a while.
Laurent is an expert Captain who enjoys sharing his knowledge and passion for Caribbean sailing with his guests. His motto: living your dream is always better than dreaming your life. Charter ISOLABLUE with Laurent and Astrid. Isn’t it time to live your dream?
Chef Astrid Geslin
Astrid had an enchanting childhood. She grew up with her brother and sister close to Luzern, in the heart of Switzerland, near the Alps and next to the Lake of Lucerne. Nestled in this picture-postcard landscape was her parents’ restaurant. Even as a very young child, Astrid loved to help with the cooking. Growing up cooking, serving and eating fine food proved a joyful inspiration. However, whether they be lakes or seas, water has always been her passion: sailing, diving, windsurfing, and swimming. Astrid is a qualified PADI Dive Master. She also holds Swiss cert. of competence for ocean yachting / BVI Boat Master.
For over 20 years, Astrid worked in Geneva, Switzerland as a Human Resources executive. One of the great benefits was the extensive, international travel the job required to start-up offices in Zürich, Paris, Milan and elsewhere. In between these working adventures, she and husband Laurent spent as much time as possible sailing their boat across the waters of Lake Geneva. Astrid obtained Sailing Certification for Lakes, then passed the Swiss Certificate of Competence for Ocean Yachting and the BVI Boat Master. It was a perfect time to sail to new horizons.
Astrid is always happy to receive guests and share moments of discovery and joy. “Every charter is a rewarding, new, enriching experience made of encounters, good humor and fun,” says Astrid. “I speak fluent French, English and German, some Italian and Spanish. I try to welcome our guests in their own language and make them feel at home. I’m passionate about fine food from all over the world. My recipes are inspired from Mediterranean and Asian cuisine, but always with a French touch.”
While Astrid’s cooking consistently earns rave reviews, guests needn’t worry about gaining a couple of extra pounds. Astrid enjoys leading a workout, from on-deck yoga to a lap around the yacht, to a go on the water toys. And fun is always her leading motivator.
Astrid was awarded FIRST PRIZE at the Grenada Yacht Charter Show 2018 Culinary Contest! Well done Astrid!!
Astrid commented:
I wanted to present the 3 different colors of Grenada:
green for the fertile land;
yellow for the wisdom, sunshine, and warmth of Grenadians and
red for the people’s courage and vitality. The people here are what make the Island of Spice so unique.
The specified ingredient was Tamarin juice. My idea was to create a Tamarin reduction which I added in all three finger entrees.
