6 of us spent a week on the Big Nauti with Per and Maia.
From the gourmet meals, the craft cocktails, exceptional service and company we would hands down repeat this amazing vacation! Per planned out the very best route and spots for us to visit since it was our first time. He was so hospitable, funny, and a joy to be around! We even played pickleball with him on Peter Island which was so much fun!
Maia outdid herself with every meal. She even made her first sour .

Per – your calm confidence, local knowledge, and effortless skill at the helm made every day feel both adventurous and completely relaxing. Whether we were discovering hidden coves or gliding into another perfect anchorage, we always felt secure and prioritized.
Maia &ndash.
Guys, what an amazing experience you two created for the entire week for our group of eight. For two of us it was the second time in the BVI. The first trip was amazing and when you do something a second time, it seldom is as good as the first! I was WRONG!
You were amazing hosts. From activities, to food, to beaches, to drinks, it could not have been better.
We highly recommend this crew to anyone who will listen.
Another trip of a lifetime.
THANK YOU.
We had such a wonderful time during our week in the BVI's! All of it was perfect in every way. This has been one of our life-altering trips with wonderful friends, beautiful scenery and the BEST food ever.
"Thanks" are inadequate, but we will thank you anyway.
May all your days be as bright as the last 7 days we spent on the Nauti!
Susan J..
Thank you so much for your kindness, presence, expertise & beautiful spirits. We had the most wonderful time with you both. What joy to experience the VI islands with our dearest of friends. I will never forget the crystal blue water the first time it met my eyes.

This week has been the culmination of my vacation dreams for many years. That sound corny but we did this trip in 2023 and loved the location but didn’t realize how much better it could be with this crew!
What can I say having you guys take care of us was beyond what I could have hoped for. You two were fun and helpful and treated us like friends or family. Your service was five star and beyond. I wish I could put into words how much I loved this trip. You exceeded my expect.
This week has totally exceeded our expectations! Thank you for your constant attentiveness. Maia, thank you for your ready smiles & awesome meals.

Sincerely, thank you for everything. I don’t think any other trip could be better than this one, but I’d sure like to try with y’all.

When we began to plan this adventure we wanted it to be one of those family experiences we'd always remember. A trip that would be one of the most special times we'd all look back on with that sort of WOW feeling. You both made that happen for us, for me, for our family.

I feel very connected to both of.
The experience y'all provided was absolute perfection. Always kind, patient, fun and accommodating! I'm so glad the two of y'all were able to share our amazing vacation. The week went by so fast, and I wouldn't have had it any other way!

Comment on the comfort onboard BIG NAUTI :
This boat was new, modern, clean, and comfortable. It truly was the best boat for us. There was a lot of space and storage, so that we never felt crowded. There were multiple gathering areas. The crew constantly cleaned our bedrooms and promptly cleaned up the kitche.
You guys are wonderful! You made us feel so special.

Our time on Big Nauti could not have been more extraordinary from turtle, dolphin spoilings. Adam's 5-star snorkeling review, mouth watering meals, and too many painkillers to count.
Per, we will miss the captain's cocktail every time 5pm rolls around. And Ashley, you have set the food standard so high. Our kids might cry returning to college dining halls 🙂
But really, you two are absolutely amazing, so much so that arguably our favorite part of the week was spending it wi.
Island of dark to port
Island of light to starboard
Waves lapping lazily
At the wind's behest
Pondering a lustrous sky
I've spied a thousand times
Yet rarely seen
Bare before the midnight waters.
Per and Ashley, thank you both for a wonderful trip and for the happy memories aboard the Big Nauti!

A week on Big Nauti was one of the most incredible trips we've been on. This was our first time chartering a catamaran, and we couldn't have been happier with the entire experience. Before our trip even started, we had a call with Per and Ashley to go over our dietary preferences and what type of experiences we'd like to have. They arranged transportation to and from the airport. We were welcomed with cocktails and mock-tails for the kids. The food was outstanding. Ashley did an amazing job acco.

I appreciated that you put your heart and soul into the guest experience. We felt pampered and were so happy to get to reconnect with each other and catch up on years passed.
Thankyou again for an unforgettable experience.
Before this week, I didn't know what vacation meant. You spoiled us all thoroughly. The islands and oceans knowledge so freely given; the neverending incredible food; the peace and the parties. 🙂
We are going home sunkissed, relaxed and full of new information and joy.
Thank you for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.
All the conservation education was the highlight for me!.
Thank you for everything this week. Your knowledge of the areas we visited, and your dedication to conservation and education are unrivaled.
We really appreciated the customer service especially after realizing that we truly were being pampered! The food was outstanding (every meal) and I couldn't be happier to spend the week with you!
Also, thank you for the helpful hints; without that I would not have been able to have the snorkel experience I did!.
This has been a trip of a lifetime for me. Many firsts. Such amazing sites and having you both guiding us and helping along the way was incredible.
Learning about the islands and sea-life was eye opening.
I truly appreciate everything you both have done this entire week. The food was absolutely amazing and delicious.
Thank you for making this trip unforgettable.
I love your passion for this life and all..
They say that life is measured not by the breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away. This trip was filled with numerous moments - from the food, to the sights, to the storms, to the snorkels - there were countless!
So grateful that I was able to share this place I love so much with my friends and with you both as our guides. Wishing you both all the luck and success in whatever you tackle next..
Perfect Caribbean Experience! We loved every moment of the trip, and we are so appreciative of the care and professionalism of both of you.
Thank you so, so much for making our time aboard Big Nauti and the birthday celebration a core memory we'll carry with us for a lifetime!.
Many times in our lives we have felt truly blessed. This was one of those times!
Thank you so much for taking care of us. This trip was transformational.
We wish you a lifetime of Joy and Happiness.
Your kindness, your professionalism, your vibe was top notch!

Amazing, wonderful, memorable! You all made this trip perfect for our family. I don't think I have seen Ryan so relaxed and I was too. Your hard work in planning our meals did not go unnoticed. We certainly appreciate every bit of the care you took to make this trip perfect.
Thank you for welcoming our little pirate, Lainey, onboard. Such a fun time having our 8 month old granddaughter on board with us.We will cherish our memories with you always and hopefully, our paths will cros.
