BAREFEET RETREAT Guest Comments
Special lifelong bond that cannot be forgotten
"Creating lifelong memories is a special treasure that so many of us take for granted until it is too late. However, the week we spent on Barefeet Retreat with Captain Jenn and Breezy Cooking will always hold a special place in our hearts and our entire group is excited to be back on the boat with them again in the future. When a trip ends with genuine hugs and tears, that sums up that not only did everyone very much enjoy themselves, but we all made a special lifelong bond that cannot be forgotten. First, Breezy Cooking’s cuisine and special beverages would rival any fine restaurant, however the hospitality from Jenn and Bree make the trip even more special. Let me tell you, these two ladies worked hard the entire trip to make everything perfect for us, but they always were enjoying themselves, had smiles on their faces and had this contagious positive view on life that continues to resonate with us. These two special ladies are making the world a better place purely from being in it and spreading their infectious positivity to everyone who is around them. The boat’s layout was perfect, the beds were comfortable, everything was immaculate and clean and with scenic background accompanied with our new found family in Jenn and Bree made for a perfect trip that we will never forget and hope to duplicate soon.

Amazing Vacation
It was an amazing vacation. Jenn and Bree were great to sail with and took us to so many islands. Loved their suggestions on islands and things to do. The food on the yacht was five star. The snorkeling and paddle boarding and exploring all the beaches where are favorite. Yacht was very clean. Cabins were comfortable. There was enough areas with shade .The food was amazing. Such a variety. The food was 5 star. I felt it was very healthy also beautiful presentation. They did have some great signature drinks. Jenn and Bree were great. Professional but also so pleasant and friendly. Very knowledgeable and had great suggestions. Would love to sail with them again.

April 2025 - Wedding Charter
Jage and Janine - There are not enough words to express how much fun we had with you this week. You went above and beyond – attending our wedding & playing the Uke for my walk down the aisle, turning Sam into a mini bosun, playing liars dice many evenings, the list goes on…. We will cherish this trip for the rest of our lives and you two are a big part of that. Thank you for the laughs, the fun, the new experiences, and the memories. Thank you all for making our wedding week so special. We look forward to our paths crossing again one day (hopefully soon)! We will miss y’all dearly.”
- Cheers from your favorite piggies! Sam & Lauren
“What an unforgettable week this has been. From the amazing food, lovely conversation, excursion suggestions and overall thoughtful care of us is what made this week so special. Your positive attitude and effort to make sure we were all taken care of and well fed is so appreciated. An extra thank you for making my pregnant self feel always included and for ensuring my little brother & new sister-in-law’s wedding week was one of the best of their lives.”
- Spenser, Anne and Adam
“What an incredible week this has been! So much to celebrate starting with my birthday (best cake ever), my sister’s beautiful wedding, Will’s first bonefish, conch diving and so much more! You both have been such a huge, integral part of our positive memories from this trip – it wouldn’t have been the same without you! Thank you for all that you did behind the scenes, I bet it is not easy but it doesn’t go unnoticed. We had so much fun getting to know you, laugh with you, play games with you, and be ourselves around you! Until next time, Do More, Say Less!!”
- Love yall, Meredith & Will
“Start to finish, top to bottom, can’t say enough to fully say how great you have made this trip. The excursions on Anegada and the Royal evening in Guana to the wedding, Meredith’s birthday, and walking Lauren down the “aisle” to the uke stylings of Janine. All unexpected and over the top. You both have made this week unforgettable in so many ways. Thank you for all you did. May our paths cross again!
- All the best! Steve and Kelly
“A special shout-out to Jage and Janine for making our experience unforgettable. As Jage said, “Leave only footprints – take away the memories.” We have followed his wisdom. Blessed to do this.”
- Rhonda & Jeff
