Thank You Thank You Thank You! This was an incredible week mostly because your hospitality onboard made it so special. From the meals to the activities to the local knowledge to the sailing skills, it was beyond all our expectations. The boat is beautiful and the BVI are Paradise… but without this stellar crew it would only have been half as good. You three make AMAYA the best Charter yacht in the Caribbean. Thank you!

Dear Amaya, Thank you so much for an incredible vacation. The children had so much fun exploring this beautiful catamaran. The adults enjoyed it very much as well. The frozen drinks and the food were incredible as well. Exploring the BVI with the Amaya crew was an overall amazing experience. We hope to be back very soon. The Acosta and Carmony family .
BVI So much fun exploring
Dear Amaya March 26 2022 This past week has been perfect. We could not have felt more welcomed each and every day. Every meal was delicious – so much that our 11 and 13 year old, found themselves not only trying everything but eating it too. We have never taken a trip like this before and plan on making it annual. The BVI’s are simply beautiful . Amaya has all the frys. Everyone loved the Seabobs. To say we admire Bruce, Begona and Jess is simply an understatement. They are simply the b.
Simply The Best
Thank you, thank you, thank you for the most incredible week on the most luxurious boat with a world class captain and crew. This is our third charter and it was by far the nicest boat and the very best service. The captain,was so accommodating and bent over backward to meet our every need as was the outstanding chef. Not only were her meals delicious and presented beautifully, she listened 100% to our pre-charter menu requests. Tihana makes an excellent pina colada and is wonderful with kids. .
Happy New Year - with kids

Captain Biff & Chef Amy
2023 Best in Show 53-62
2022 Runner Up Best Yacht in Show
Biff
Captain Biff learned to sail at the Cub Scouts at a tender age and was hooked! As soon as he was old enough to teach sailing he packed his bags & found his way to the Mediterranean coast of France to start his first overseas instructor job. Working his way around France and Spain he finally settled down in Greece running his own sailing school on the chic Greek Riviera. Cold winters of Europe called him to work in Kenya briefly before settling in the BVI’s running luxury charters in warm waters!
Amy
Having learned to cook at the age of 9 so she could watch ‘neighbours’ (Aussie Soap) on TV, Amy added windsurfing & then sailing to her interests after finishing university in order to travel. First working in Turkey, Italy & France Amy finally moved to Greece & met Biff. Wherever she travels she picks up local recipes and cooking techniques, which she refined at the renowned Ashburton & River Cottage cookery schools, both in Devon, UK. Fresh, seasonal & local produce are her favourite ingredients put together in a fusion of worldwide flavours for all to enjoy!
Between them, Amy & Biff have the experience & knowledge to steer you a course to a truly memorable vacation. With their water sports background they are able to teach even the most reluctant swimmers, sailors, paddle boarders to confidently make the most of their time on the water regardless of age. Their years working in family orientated resorts in Europe also lend them to be dab hands at arranging fun and relaxing family charters. Known for their flexibility & competence, your wish is their command.
Piers Reid
A third crew member, Piers Reid, rounds out the team. Piers holds a RYA/MCA Yachtmaster Offshore Sail endorsement. He has been sailing professionally around the world since 2014. Piers is happy to lend a hand wherever needed; guiding you on a hike ormaking your favorite cocktail just to name a few.
