Where to begin? Our trip booked with CharterWorld was spectacular and honestly, exceeded my expectations in every way. We were welcomed with a champagne reception. Yacht was beautiful, modern, spacious and absolutely spic and span clean. The water “toys” were great and certainly were used daily. Our crew was fabulous; Captain was attentive, great with guidance and always interested in our opinions on the itinerary du jour. He selected some beautiful, local wines that we enjoyed every day. Our cook-good GOD-she is incredible. Our family is a family of utter “foodies”; we seek out amazing restaurants and cook a lot at home. cooking was outrageously good. Everything she made was outstanding. Her food was so amazing (I dare say, better than any restaurant we dined at while on the Amalfi Coast the week before-and we ate at some lovely restaurants) that we had no interest in getting off at any ports to have food in “town”. Rather, we ate every meal onboard. This truly added a special touch to an already lovely trip. She went out of her way to meet our few food allergies- her cooking was like a week of a 5 star dining experience. Fabulous! Sardinia and the nearby archipelago was just stunning. Weather and water temperatures…perfect. We travel a lot and are fortunate to have done some amazing trips. All wholeheartedly agreed that this experience was tied for first place on our list of favorite trips. Thank you for all of your assistance with putting it together. We absolutely loved everything.
A word to the wise... I rented the Never One yacht (MAIORA 79 (2001)) owned by Pietro Pagliari of Luxury Yacht Services through Amanda Brilliante of Charterworld LLP and luisa Guarino of Sea-Sea Charters. The boat was a disaster. It was filthy. Barely functional. It had no wifi, no air con in 100 degree heat, no hot water, partial electricity. Despite the fact that we paid in full for our charter and our APA (fuel, docking, food), by day 4 of our 12 day trip the crew began demanding more money. They then began getting aggressive, refusing to dock the boat, drive the boat, and eventually by day 6 they literally ended our charter because we wouldn’t give them more money and effectively stole 30k american dollars. I have pressed charges with the Italian federal police, notified the FBI, and filed complaints with CYBA and MYBA. I want others to know what happened to me so they might better protect themselves.
