Hard to describe what an amazing trip this has been. After this, vacationing any other way is always going to be a close second. The Barefoot Bliss is just that: a no shoes accommodation that leaves you in true bliss! The catamaran is the way to travel. A floating hotel that allows you to savor every scenic view at all times. The stunning beauty of the BVI is seen at every single cove, each with a unique experience to offer. Fishing, Pink Sands, swimming with turtles, clear shades of turquoise waters, flying stingrays just to name a few. One can go on and on.
But along with what the BVI has to offer is the need for a strong, fun and knowledgeable crew at the helm, and that can be found with Cam and Sam! They were the perfect team to set us up for the day and plan and prepare the best food and experience / itinerary each and every day. With Captain Cam at the center, we all felt safe and knew we were always heading towards another beautiful day of memories. With Chef Sam, we were more than well fed, no dish with anything left on it, a constant surprise of better and better plates of pure deliciousness. Thank you both again!
What a week!! Captain Cam set up the best adventures for our family — from snorkeling the Treasure Caves, to night time fish spotting, exploring Anegada and swimming with sea turtles (bucket list!!) — core family memories made (especially Gwen)! Chef Sam — we are leaving inspired, possibly 20 lbs heavier :) and have never been so well fed. Thank you both for allowing us to fully relax, experience the BVI's and be together. Best trip we have had! Cheers!
This week at sea can best be described as a Vibe! Sam & Cam are so welcoming, time melted away the moment we boarded, with Cam navigating us through waters that washed away all worries, and Sam providing sustenance for soul, refreshing and celebration. So relaxing, so rhythmic, so vast. Our phones became nothing more than cameras, yet the memories will be stronger and deeper than any photo and twice as beautiful!
Dear Cam and Sam,
As this was Christian & my first time to the BVIs with a group who had traveled here together before, we weren't truly sure what to expect. Somehow you managed to bisect the important lines of allowing Bradley, Andrew, Phil & Fontaine to reminisce at places visited prior and give us all completely new memories at new places with incredible experiences. Sam, your meals were spot on and we all loved them. Cam, your perfect blend of humor & control made this special. As a pair, the experience you gave us was/is truly indescribable.
When we planned this adventure, we knew it would be an amazing return to the BVI's. This place is so special. And when we "met" the two of you over Zoom from snowy Connecticut, we knew we would be in for a phenomenal sailing experience. Somehow you both checked every box and far exceeded our expectations. We could not have been more comfortable in our cabins, or stretched out in the various perches taking in the views and stars. Every meal and cocktail made it feel like a first class celebration. Every day swimming and relaxing and dancing and soaking up the sun was perfection. You made this trip, and my big birthday, so memorable! Thanks for everything!
