This was our third charter with BVIYC in the last 4 years. Alizee is a brand new Aura-51 and our crew of 10 were excited for our charter. The catamaran was beautiful and spotless. We had some nagging port engine issues during our charter but BVIYC was very responsive and tried to walk me through some initial checks on what is a very complicated boat! They then sent technicians out to us to try and locate/fix the problems with our port engine. They finally found a restriction ... Read More »

Best Vacation Ever
We chartered Andiamo with Captain Mila and Chef Molly over the Christmas week in 2025. Everything about the trip was perfect. The boat is extremely well appointed and designed. It had a great mix of intimacy and shared space, full sun and shade. Mila and Molly were a great team. They both took the time to listen and tailor the week to fit what we wanted to do. They were both a fun part of our greater group. Molly delivered on every meal with a terrific mix of foods always ... Read More »
Wow – the Disney Land for sailing
We did a 14-day monohull charter with BVI Charters — our first time with them — and it was outstanding from start to finish. The boat was immaculate, very well presented, and clearly well maintained. Everything on board worked perfectly. The handover was thorough, unhurried, and gave us plenty of time to ask questions and revisit anything we weren’t sure about.
The British Virgin Islands are simply fantastic for sailing: consistent 15–20 kn easterlies, minimal tidal ... Read More »
70th Birthday Sailing Sojourn in the BVIs
Last July my wife and I decided to make plans to charter a sailboat for a weeklong trip, it was on our bucket list. We decided that we would do it to coincide with my 70th birthday. I had the pleasure of connecting with Abbie from BVI Yacht Charters, who promptly sent us options of boats to consider. We selected the Alora and invited some close friends to join us.
Fast forward to January of 2026 when we boarded the Alora to be welcomed by our captain, Franky and our chef, ... Read More »
Thankyou!
We arrived safely home, and I’ve been reflecting on the truly amazing experience we had in the BVI, thanks to all of you.
For months leading up to the trip, you helped me find the boat that fit us perfectly, patiently answered countless questions, and guided me through preparing for my very first bareboat charter. You were always responsive, supportive, and genuinely happy to help — it never felt transactional, only encouraging and reassuring.
Once we arrived, you made ... Read More »
Don’t miss out
We decided to visit BVI with our best friends and booked our trip on the catamaran Alize. Carlos and his wife from Maribel were absolutely amazing. The boat was immaculate, the captain was cheerful, and the food was far behind what we expected. If they had a restaurant we would visit weekly. This is an experience we would recommend anyone to take on the Alize! ... Read More »
Fabulous experience aboard Apricity with outstanding crew….
Our family has just returned from a truly spectacular sailing vacation aboard Apricity, made exceptional by an extraordinary crew—Captain Rodrigo and Chef Alys. Many say the British Virgin Islands are the finest cruising grounds in the world, and we wholeheartedly agree.
Apricity was extremely comfortable for our three-generation family, but what truly elevated this trip was the crew. We shared our meal preferences in advance, and every single meal was delicious and ... Read More »
The crew of Tapas
We had an outstanding experience with Abbie as our yacht charter broker. She was patient and supportive every step of the way. We hope to use her services again.
The yacht Tapas that she paired us with was an excellent choice, mainly due to the crew.
While the boat Tapas was as expected, the crew exceeded all expectations of our charter.
A Truly Exceptional Captain – Matija Pavlović.
Our extended family—parents, our four adult sons, and two daughters-in-law—recently spent ... Read More »
Exceptional
Thank you for a fantastic charter! Our boat Alternate Current was fantastic. We’ve chartered many times and this was the first time the boat was perfect….not one problem…nothing broke. The “Kellys” in the office were super helpful and the briefing from Tika was thorough and clear. We could not recommend BVI Yacht Charters more highly! ... Read More »
Deja Vu… Literally
Of course we came back to see BVIYC!
Our first charter with them was so phenomenal, we couldn’t wait to come back! 12 night charter aboard Deja Vu picked up right where our last charter ended… Exceeding expectations!
From the support prior to arriving in the islands, easy and friendly check-in, boat checkout, support throughout the charter, and a friendly efficient goodbye on our last day… BVIYC was 10 out of 10 again!
Special shout out to Kelly S, Tony and Admiral ... Read More »
A trip down memory lane
As former owners of a 45’ sloop based in the BVI for over 30 years we were looking for a week afloat at our favorite spots. We rented a similiar sized sailboat from BVI Yacht Charters. All our interactions with them were excellent. The boat was as advertised, spotless and in good working order. Our check in/out was thorough. Tech services was responsive 24/7.
The shower and toilet facilities at the base were pristine and new. We would charter with them again. ... Read More »
BVI Yacht Charters are Top Notch
Having chartered bareboats in the BVI since 1982, we found BVI Yacht Charters to be top notch! From the moment we stepped aboard our catamaran for the first night sleep over, the boat was welcoming and ready to go; clean and well-appointed with the AC on for a cool night at the dock. The entire staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Their very cheerful front office staff was quite helpful, the boat checkout very thorough, and a quick, efficient return was best we've experienced ...
