What a beautiful week. The blessings bestowed upon all of us from Nicole, Michael, Josh and Casey were unbelievable. Nicole - thank you so much for the care you provided this week. You went above and beyond to show us love and care. Your love notes and flowers on our pillows brought me so much joy. Most importantly? I see that you take this seriously and actually love what you do here. It’s so nice and refreshing to see that! Thank you for being you. Casey - I don’t know where to start. Can I whisk you away so me and my family can enjoy your cooking? You had to accommodate so many different dietary restrictions and you did it with so much ease. Everything was superb. I pray in this lifetime I get to experience your cooking again. Thank you. I pray you create a cookbook of all your superb dishes… Josh! Thank you so much for your sweet and calm spirit. I see you working hard and being so present with us with the little things. Thank you for keeping us safe and ensuring we have fun. Continued blessings to you! Michael! Thank you for being our guide, for keeping us safe. Your humor daily was a joy to be around. Thank you for driving this boat with ease and getting us to where we needed to go. I also see your care and compassion for others. People look to you always for direction without knowing you because that’s who you are: a leader. Keep living your dream. If it wasn’t for Brandi and Steve we would have never been able to experience all of your beautiful individual talents. Cheers to Brandi and Steve for choosing the most amazing crew! With love always - LaShawn.
Aeolus crew! Wowza. Best week ever. Thank you so much for all the fun times! I enjoyed the food so much. My tummy has never been this happy. Thank you to Casey for making amazing food to keep me on my macros. Huge thanks to Michael and Josh for being great tour guides and also educators of the land! In addition, Nicole! You have a personality that lights up the room! You are always there when needed and you make the best drinks and bed time notes! Thank you all for everything! So blessed to spend a week with y'all! See you soon. Much love and light and laughter - Jenna.
The crew of Aeolus is simply amazing! Everything about this trip has been a true journey! Captain Michael is a very capable seaman. He has a great sense of humor and hits every curveball out of the park. Josh quietly works to keep all the toys within reach and is ever present with a warm smile and a helping hand. Nicole will hand you a cold drink. She is a true alchemist, and an expert group facilitator. She keeps everyone’s spirit up just by walking in the room! Casey Casey Casey - oh my - you are a true delight and master chef. Thank you so much for all of your care. You did crush it! Thank you Aeolus Crew! I feel like you really “saw us”. I wish you the very best on your personal journeys. Mental hugs - Rhonda.

Heaven on the Seas! Wow, it is difficult to imagine a more stellar week on the water. The Caribbean islands and island hopping done to perfection. Thank you Supreme Naval Commander Cottrell for a lights out week! Captain Michael, Casey, Josh & Nicole, thank you for a refined, lovely, gastronomically fantastique and beverage heaven on water. From the underwater scuba paradises to the e-foiling highs and lows, this trip was a flat out blast!! There are simply too many extraordinary, fun, and outrageous sunsets, mornings, swims, etc. to mention. It was a week of giant W's. Thank you Commander for a visit of smart & fun hilariousness and lifelong comraderie and friendship. This was truly a memorable week of limitless superlatives! - W

"To the amazing, marvelous, and always happy crew of Aeolus - You have exceeded every expectation that I had for my family's first maiden sailing voyage. This 'forced family fun' trip was truly everything I imagined it would be PLUS more. Each of you has a true special gift and you so generously shared with us. Your patience, kindness, knowledge, your caring, and true love of what you do shone through. Every little detail was noticed by Nicole, every special meal request by Casey, every water toy wish by Josh, and Michael the scuba, sailing, and patience with all aboard! You are wonderful people and we are blessed to have spent this Easter week with you!" -- Maja
"Casey - You are an artist with food! Simply Amazing! We all had too many favorites and could not agree on the winning dish. Thank you for being so accommodating with so many special requests! Nicole - you have the best people skills that I've seen in hospitality! You are truly gifted and go the extra mile every time! Josh - your happiness is infectious; you truly enjoy every day and you make this job look like fun!! Gratitude comes easy to you and it shows! Michael - I'm so glad that you traded in Finance for this amazing profession. Your peace and tranquility is a very important quality in this business! Thank you for introducing scuba to my family. I will be forever grateful! To the owners - Thank you for sharing this amazing vessel! As guests, we only see the top 1/3 of the iceberg and know how much work it is to create Aeolus! You've done a great job! The crew is a ten out of ten! Thank you." -- John

We can't thank you enough for taking such wonderful care of us on our first boating trip! You are so amazing and made us feel at home the whole week. We truly appreciate all of your hard work and attention you gave us, from our little treats on our beds, to the best food ever, to taking us to quite the dive bar, and making sure we stopped at all the perfect spots on the islands! You were so fun to be around and I'm pretty sure Jimmy would love to become part of your crew! We will definitely miss having fun in the water and playing with all the toys on the boat. There's no doubt that we'll miss all of our gourmet meals when we head back to NYC. But most of all we wish you all the best on your upcoming adventures and travels and know that anyone who comes aboard Aeolus will be very lucky! -Jen & Jimmy Wilent
Thank you all for the perfect cruise. All of us on Aeolus this trip either own or have owned boats of our own and we know what it takes to deliver a special experience and you did that and more. Michael, your can do, laid back style sets a wonderful tone for the Aeolus crew. Josh, we all wish you huge success in your next role as Captain. It was great that we got to see you in action for one of your last trips, go get em! Nicole, superb, sweet, smart, and all over it. Enjoy your new gig and we wish you well in your endeavor. Continue your Adventures! Casey, you spoiled us. Every meal was delicious and special. Great job and now diet time!

It feels just like yesterday we stepped onto this beautiful yacht, but also in such a short period of time we've had so many experiences and been introduced to so many beautiful places and the water! Thank you for making our first charter the most amazing experience we could have hoped for, including our night-time adventure which now has Jay believing he's a full-time captain from here on out!
Michael, thank you for getting us to all our destinations safe, and for the history lesson on the islands along the way, and for putting up with Jay's never ending questions about boating & the seas! Be ready for next year, Jay will be coming aboard with a year of boating research under his belt after this adventure! Casey, every meal was beyond beautiful! We know your cuisine was magic when the life jackets got too snug at the end of the trip. Josh, thank you for night chats and stories, great to get to know you and best of luck on your new boat, Captain! Nicole, you always knew what we needed without us knowing it! Your little touches and attention were so sweet and made us feel like royalty. Thank you for keeping our pale Canadien skin protected at all times! Best of luck on your next adventure with Josh! Love us both - Jason & Stephanie
