We are all feeling blessed to have been sailing with you both since 2018. A lot of wonderful memories - the food, cocktails, diving - but most of all - your warm hospitality. We all have such a lovely fun time aboard.
Wishing you a calm 2026 - full of enormous amount of fun!

What an amazing adventure. All that we experienced along the way was made so special because of the love you share with each other and the passion for exploring with your yacht and us. Your caring is everything. Keep on "rocking" it out friends! Our love always!

Astrid and fellow Captain,
You both surpassed our expectations. Astrid, how you were able to change up your Menus when we caught several fish was amazing. 5 star service for all meals and accommodations! Laurent, your easy going personality and your willingness to please made our trip special. The last night, the love and friendship created while singing and dancing to the 80's and French was epic. Tobago Cays was a night we will never forget.
Love you both, Mary and Mark

What an unforgettable experience, from the moment we stepped on board Astrid and Laurent made us feel like honored guests and old friends in their wonderful home. We had the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. From magical snorkeling moments to some of the most amazing meals we've ever had - let alone at sea! Every day felt effortless, because of the attention to detail. Your warmth and genuine care made this trip truly special. Thank you for your kindness, passion and humor. We will treasure these memories. Scott's 45th bucket list trip is one that will stay in our heart.
Love always,
Scott and List, Jeff and Kori, and Brad.

Our family had no idea of what to expect on this trip. Here's what we didn't expect:
A very cool couple with a lifetime of unique experiences, sharing their home with us
A gastronomical journey from meal to meal, with amazingly unexpected flavours for a family of 4, who each love to cook in our own ways, it was truly inspiring! (You made me enjoy foods I usually hate - Drew).
Patience and understanding with a new diver, and expert guidance to the best dive spots for the 3 of us who have certification
Willing spoon players late into the evening.
An excellent limbo dancer (Astrid)
A trip to remember for a lifetime.
Handwriting is no indication of the strong cocktails by Laurent!

Wow! Where do we begin? If we had prior expectations they were completely blown away by Astrid and Laurent. From the moment we arrived on board they made us feel welcome and at home. Listening to your stories and knowledge of the islands and sailing adventures kept us all intrigued at every moment.
The passion that you have at this "career" you have masterfully crafted is evident in all that you do. From Astrid's undeniable talent with food that left us all smiling and drooling with each flavor. To Laurent's love for diving that took each one of us on an unforgettable underwater adventure.
To say this was the trip of a lifetime, feels like it does not do enough justice to how truly amazing this week really was. We are all so happy we were able to spend Stephen's 50th birthday celebrating with you this way.
The vibrant colors of the Caribbean waters, the lush landscapes, the curious underwater creatures, and the ever welcoming friendly locals will stay with us all.
There is no way to truly say thank you for such an amazing adventure. Thank you a hundred times. Stephen, Craig and guests

BROKER REVIEW
Hi Captain Laurent & Chef Astrid,
I wanted to share with you the great feedback we received from my clients about their charter on Isolablue. I’ve no doubt, they'll be back to repeat their very positive experience with you in the future.
I am looking forward to continuing the relationship we’ve established and booking more charters for my clients on your yacht.
Captain: 5/5
Comments Laurent was amazing, any questions we had he answered and provided much knowledge as we were sailing. Felt safe and relaxed throughout the entire trip.
Rest of the crew: 5/5
Comments Astrid was amazing as well, the attention to detail to us as guests that we were comfortable as well as to the meals she created were beyond words.
How would you qualify the yacht (comfort, features, general maintenance, etc) 5/5
Comments As far as a our first boating experience we didn't have any thing to compare but now after sailing on the Isolablue for a week it blew any expectations we had out of the water. Overall the layout of the boat and seating areas was very comfortable and perfect for our group.
How would you qualify the itinerary 5/5
Comments Astrid and Laurent picked up very quickly that we were a very laid back group and looking for relaxing, serene and peaceful landscapes. They planned the itinerary to showcase just those features, showing off the beautiful Caribbean islands and how peaceful and beautiful on land and water.
How would you qualify the sports and leisure activities/equipment on board 5/5
Comments We were mainly interested in snorkeling and trail dives, which Laurent offered successfully and took us to the best spots to enjoy those activities.
How would you qualify the food and drinks 5/5
Comments Not one bad thing to say about the food or drinks! The food was like artwork every time a dish was prepared and tasted amazing. The drinks offered whether it be one of Laurents tasty Rum cocktails, or an ice cold beer were top notch!
How would you qualify the entire experience of your trip 5/5
Comments Trip of a lifetime! This was our first experience on a chartered boat, and to say we are now spoiled for all future vacations is an understatement.
PLEASE ADD ANY OTHER COMMENTS: Astrid and Laurent individually are amazing people at the services they provide, together they are even more amazing and a great team. They made us feel like we were travelling with lifelong friends, from the evening stories, to drinks on deck watching the sunsets and listening to their own adventures through the years. They truly showcased the beauty of the Caribbean islands and introduced us to some wonderfully friendly locals.
To anyone on the fence about doing a charter vacation I highly urge you to book the trip, book the boat, and let Isolable take you on the adventure of a lifetime.
Once again you knocked it out of the park! Thank you for all of your hardwork with this group! They had a wonderful time! 5⭐!
Kind regards, Lesli
