NAUTI NICKEL Guest Comments
June 2025 Charter Saint Marten/Anguilla/Saint Barts
“Don’t ask to be blessed, ask to be a blessing.”
The crew on the Nauti Nickel is a blessing. We needed a reprieve from hectic life & definitely received that—
with amazing food, fun, & direction on what our next ‘right’ thing to do would be.
Each day was packed with fun & adventure—
we didn’t have to sit long or think much. Snorkeling, e-foils, hikes, & more exploring—
Our needs were always met with a smile & the crew was fun to be with.
Thank you for being a memory maker—
We will always remember this!!

Christmas 2025 - Once in a lifetime family Vacation
Our family of 10 spent one week in the BVI on the Nauti Nickel and had the most wonderful time. The boat is absolutely beautiful with ample space for all with our favorite spot being the flybridge with a full bar and jacuzzi. We had so much fun with all of the water toys and snorkeling opportunities. The Ronin tender boat made island excursions so easy. Cabins were beautiful with extremely comfortable beds and showers.
The crew of the Nauti Nickel was fully committed to making sure that this was the once in a lifetime family vacation that we were hoping for. As captain, Michael was always available and presented us with a variety of potential plans for each day that met our interests.
The meals were absolutely spectacular and Jen as chef took into account all of our dietary interests and restrictions. Some of our favorites included the brisket eggs benedict, lemon/blueberry pancakes, tuna poke bowl, homemade pasta, and lemon tiramisu. Rose prepared the most beautiful tables for each meal. Travis was always up for the next water toy request or island tour, and Kelani was game for navigating the Ronin to our next island spot. Each of them were consistently making sure that our coffee mugs were full in the morning and our cocktail glasses were full in the evenings.
December 2025 - Best Family Vacation Ever
My family and my brother's family were lucky enough to spend a week in December 2025 on the Nauti Nickel. The Yacht was beyond phenomenal. It was equipped with everything we could have needed but more important the staff couldn't have been any better. They were so warm, fun and accommodating. We went on snorkeling adventures, visited islands within the BVI, ate incredible meals, became pirates for a night and got to experience plenty of water time and downtime to recharge and laugh together. Not only did the Nauti Nickel have one tender to take us ashore but two including the Ronin which is a military style tender that brought us to shore many days in comfort that no other tender could have provided including indoor space and air conditioning.
We will cherish this trip of a lifetime forever and dream of the delicious breakfasts, coffee and meals we enjoyed daily not to mention the pleasure of going home with clean laundry and a staff that made us feel like we were royalty!
