Hazel Della Guest Comments
Great First Time Cruising

We finally realized our dream of cruising the BVI. Our crew of Captain Nicholas and First Mate/Chef Vaughn made the week aboard Hazel Della incredible. Snorkeling at The Caves, The Indians and Diamond Reef were beautiful. Every morning the captain took us to a new island with new adventures. He surprised us with a few hidden gems, but I’m sworn to secrecy.

Chef Vaughn made every meal memorable, serving many of our favorites and a few specialties. His afternoon Charcuterie boards were fantastic. He managed our dietary requirements quite well.

Captain always accompanied us ashore to guide us to the best locations and scheduled all our reservations for dinners and taxis.

We’re already looking forward to our next cruise.

 

Breathtaking Sailing Adventure led by a knowledgeable, passionate, creative, and hoppy to please Captain and Chef!!

You will pinch yourself each day with astounding beauty in every direction no matter what time of day or where the wind takes you! Captain Nicholas and Chef Vaughn bring passion, creativity, and fun surprises each day by listening carefully to what you want and like; guaranteeing to exceed your expectations! They know all the right places and the best times to be there to maximize your experiences. Then they will spoil you on board the luxurious Hazel Della with personalized service, kindness, and delectable treats based on your palate! They truly are kind, dedicated, and fun-insuring moments on board are as relaxing and enjoyable as the adventures they love to share! Thank you to a perfect team!!
 

A charter dream come true!

We always knew the sights & sounds of the British Virgin Islands would live up to its reputation as the “sailing capital of the world”. What we didn’t realize was how having the right crew could make it a truly memorable experience. Our Captain( Nicholas) and Chef/1st Mate(Vaughn) proved to be exceptional at what they do. From their sailing, culinary & itinerary skills; every task onboard was done with the same goal in mind…guest satisfaction. Our charter onboard the well appointed Hazel Della will forever be a cherished memory. To our South African friends aboard the Hazel Della…Baie dankie vir 'n werk goed gedoen!
 

The Best Trip of Our Lives

I have read a lot of the other reviews and there is nothing to add to them, it is simply a beautiful place in the BVIs. It’s magical and breathtaking and you must go on your own catamaran! What set this trip apart for us were our Captain (Nico) and Chef (Vaughn). They made the trip for us. I’m sure the scenery and experience are the same on most boats but you cannot replicate the feeling of spending the week with crew that become more like best friends. They made sure that we had the time of our lives on the Hazel Della and I cannot say enough about how magical they made this trip for me! As I told Nico when I gave them their tip, if I had brought double, I would have given that to them! They are spectacular and this yacht company is lucky to have these two men together on this boat. My only advice, only go if you want to relax and have a great time! These are the two that are made for that! It seems truly inadequate but thank you for the time of my life!
 

Best crew ever

We had the best time on our sailing trip! Being with family was amazing but our captain Nicolas and chef Vaughn made everything even more special. We would only do a charter with them again!
