ELVIS MAGIC Guest Comments
14-28 March 2025 - Leewards and Windward islands
Lovely comments from the guests: Best charter ever :)
totally due to the crew, it was a bit of a hard sell but they went for it and did not regret it.
Hi Sarah,
Just a quick note to you to say that we had a great experience on the Elvis Magic. As you know, the yacht itself was not what we were looking for, too small etc. But Séamus and Morgane really offered a great experience. We sailed as much as the weather permitted, 400+ nm in total, I could do all of the sailing myself (which charter captains are usually very nervous about), the cuisine was very good. And especially, the two of them really succeeded in understanding what type of experience we were looking for and providing exactly that in a low key way. Odd as it may sound, it was truly a superyacht experience.
We were very pleased. All in all it was the best yacht charter we ever had. Thank you for finding it for us

We had the pleasure of spending 10 days aboard a beautiful Oyster 66 in early February 2026. Sailing from Sint Maarten to Guadalupe, with our final destination, Antigua, Elvis Magic and her crew exceeded our expectations. We were pleasantly surprised to learn we were boarding an exquisite vessel owned and operated by the crew, Captain Seamus O’Donnell and his first mate and fiancée, the elegant, Morgane. Elvis is in pristine condition and is loved by her captain who spends time each day polishing her, attending to routine maintenance, all while entertaining the guests and ensuring the safety of everyone on board. We came to learn quickly, Morgane is the magic behind Elvis. A chiropractor at sea, and a self taught gourmet chef, she attended to our every whim. We quickly gave a name to her onboard restaurant, Chez Morgane. She created the most succulent, gourmet meals from her galley below deck and served them with elegance and ease. She used the finest, fresh ingredients from the islands to create themed dishes in abundance. They both held to the highest standard of cleanliness, providing fresh linens throughout our time aboard Elvis. Seamus and Morgane are also very knowledgeable about the islands and were able to direct and even escort us to their favourite local bars and shops. They recommended unique restaurants set on cliff tops and others located under a canopy of trees. However, nothing compared to Chez Morgane where we were greeted each afternoon with charcuterie and cocktails upon our return from shore. They took us to world renowned snorkeling destinations and shared their knowledge of sea life and even had a GoPro for our use to capture the underwater world. Seamus shared his sailing experience showing us some sailing basics while we travelled from island to island. Seamus and Morgane displayed elegance and grace at every turn, making everything seamless and natural. We look forward to sailing with them again and again and again. Cheers to an amazing couple, it was a privilege to share Elvis with them on our journey. Thank you both for your outstanding hospitality.

"Seamus and Morgane looked after us splendidly ... Morgane is not a Charter cook she is a Charter Chef as well as a first rate first mate. Seamus and Morgane are a formidable team, polished and professional. Not easy to run a Charter when both Mike and I are former large yacht owners and in my case an owner/ operator charter skipper like Seamus. That said the interface between crew and guests was seamless. We thoroughly enjoyed our time on Elvis Magic, a wonderful example of an earlier Oyster 66, lovingly cared for by Seamus and Morgane."

Chris and I are both still smiling thinking about the past 10 days - what an extraordinary experience you both created for us all aboard Elvis Magic.
From the moment we stepped aboard you made us feel completely at home - especially the first few days while I was seasick. Seamus, your calm confidence, knowledge of the waters and islands, and your ability to find the most beautiful spots to swim and snorkel made every day special. We felt safe, relaxed and completely taken care of - the greatest gift!
Morgane - thank you for the incredible care you put into every day - the delicious meals, our daily cocktails and even laundry - pure luxury. You've both created something special here on Elvis Magic and given us an incredible memory. Chris and Noelle
