TIMAIAO 2 Guest Comments
Guest charter in French Indies this March 2025
We had a wonderful cruise on Timaiao2: (Martinique, Dominique, Marie-Galante, Les Saintes) with our family at the beginning of March 2025.
A big thank to Jaro for the advices on the itinerary and the best moments of navigation, and your kindness with all of us. It's so reassuring to have a Captain like you!
Anouk, as well as being an excellent cook, attentive to all the needs of young and old alike, you always have an activity or story to suggest! We all have wonderful memories of the surprise organized for Sophie's birthday! Thank you for a delightful time, and I hope to see you soon, friends, and all the best!

What we thought was going to be an amazing trip on the Timaiao 2 in March 2025 turned out to be way beyond amazing, thanks to Jaro and Anouk.
From the responsive communication that started almost a year in advance planning out details such as menus, itineraries, required documents and tips in general. The crew of the Timaiao2 instilled a sense of security and trust prior to our sail.
Once we had the privilege of seeing the Timaiao 2 and meeting Jaro & Anouk in person, they proved to be knowledgeable and beyond capable of delivering a safe and comfortable journey from St.Vincent to Grenada for our family.
Everyday in the morning Capt. Jaro would discuss the days itinerary and what the weather and time would permit over a great breakfast prepared by Chef and First Mate Anouk.
We are a family of four with our two kids ages 13 and 11. We were always comfortable and well fed and hydrated. Anouk did an incredible job when it came to preparing food for our picky eaters.
She also was an amazing underwater guide sharing her vast experience of the area and showing us all there was to see.
I could go on and on about what an amazing experience our family had while onboard the Timaiao 2 with Jaro and Anouk. But you should book a trip and see for yourself.
You won't be disappointed.
They truly are some of the nicest people we've ever met.
We arrived as clients but departed as family.
Sincerely
Paul, Rebecca, Aurelia and Zander

In March, 2025 We had an unforgettable exciting adventure sailing with Capt. Jaro and Chef/First Mate Anouk on the Timaiao 2. Their attention to all detail and warm, friendly personalities made us feel at home the first moment we stepped on board. They are so knowlegeable about the area and shared with us their love of the Grenadines. We enjoyed pristine beaches, snorkeling spots and local restaurants. Anouk is a fabulous chef and kept us well fed on the boat. She would join us on our daily snorkeling and point out sea life or tell stories of the area. Jaro is a fantastic Captain and always included us in the daily planning to make the sailing trip completely tailored to our preferences. They are both warm, vibrant, loving individuals and we thoroughly enjoyed spending time with them. The Timaniao is comfortable and well maintained. We always felt safe under Capt. Jaro’s watch. The entire charter was relaxing, refreshing and exciting. We are already planning the 2026 charter because we left with so many memories and new friends. Thank you for sharing your home and love of the islands with us! See you next year!

An Unforgettable Voyage Through the Grenadines!
Our recent 9-day sailing trip with Jaro and Anouk aboard their magnificent catamaran, Timaiao 2, from Saint Vincent to Grenada, was nothing short of a dream come true. We encountered some spirited winds, refreshing rains, and exhilarating waves, every moment on the open sea was an absolute joy and a testament to the incredible experience they provide.
From the moment we stepped aboard, Jaro and Anouk made us feel incredibly welcome, transforming what could have been just a vacation into a truly personalized and heartwarming adventure. Their meticulous planning shone through in every aspect of our journey. The itinerary was perfectly crafted, taking us to the most amazing islands and cays, including the breathtaking Tobago Cays, the serene Chatham Bay, the charming Bequia, and the vibrant Union Island. Each stop offered unique beauty and unforgettable experiences.
Beyond the stunning destinations, it was Jaro and Anouk's genuine hospitality and expertise that truly made this trip exceptional. They were incredibly helpful with suggestions for activities at each stop, ensuring there was something for everyone in our family. Our son, in particular, thrived under Jaro's guidance, learning the ins and outs of sailing and life on the open seas – an invaluable experience he will cherish forever.
The culinary journey was equally impressive. We were perfectly fed with delicious meals throughout the trip, and our daughter even enjoyed a delightful dessert cooking lesson, adding a sweet touch to our memories. The thoughtful gesture of a "sleepy tea" and a bite of a sweet treat each evening was just one of many small touches that made us feel pampered and cared for.
The accommodations on Timaiao 2 were impeccable – comfortable, cozy, and truly felt like a home away from home. We felt as if we were staying with family, which speaks volumes about the warm and inviting atmosphere Jaro and Anouk cultivated.
The Polachek family boarded Timaiao 2 as clients for the week, but we reluctantly disembarked as family. Our evening chats, filled with laughter and shared stories, will always be a cherished memory. We will forever remember our time onboard and eagerly look forward to our next connection with Jaro and Anouk. We know we will always be friends, and we're quite sure our son will find a way to surprise Jaro in Norway at some point!
Thank you, Jaro and Anouk, for an extraordinary adventure and for opening your hearts and your home to us. We can't wait to sail with you again!
Kind Regards ~
Terri
