ANDIAMO Guest Comments
From the moment we boarded, we felt like cherished guests
Juan and Rochi,
Thank you both for making our week-long adventure through the BVI on Andiamo an unforgettable experience! From the moment we boarded, we felt like cherished guests. You created an atmosphere of warmth, comfort, and gracious hospitality. We enjoyed the water sports - Seabobs, paddleboarding, snorkeling, foiling... and the fun shore excursions to see many gorgeous beaches and islands. Highlights for us were Saba Rock, BEYC, Eustacia, Swan Bay, and Soggy Dollar Bar, just to name a few! The delicious and beautifully presented meals were a work of art! Your attention to detail was evident in everything, including the care you showed when Barce broke his toe - retrieving ice and anti-inflammatories right away, making sure he was comfortable and well taken care of.
We felt truly looked after. The daily happy hour treats, appetizers, and cocktails were a lovely transition from our sun-drenched days to beautiful sunsets and stargazing. Your gracious hospitality allowed us to relax, unwind, and thoughtfully immerse ourselves in the joy and beauty of our surroundings. We will treasure our memories of this magical time forever and are so thankful for everything you did to make our trip so magical and extraordinary! Tienen tu casa en Seattle! You are an amazing team!
P.S. A highlight of our trip was getting to know each of you a little better and hearing about your careers, adventures, and plans for the future. I wish you both the best of good fortune and success in your future.
Best regards,
Bruce & Julia ❤️
You two are the best hosts ever! Your teamwork, professionalism, and attention to detail are superb.
Juan and Rochi,
You two are the best hosts ever! Your teamwork, professionalism, and attention to detail are superb. You made our trip even better than we expected - thank you! Where to start... Rochi's meals were excellent - wow. We were so spoiled. Every single thing - breakfasts, snacks, the snack box, lunches, happy hours, dinners, desserts, drinks, and our big birthday celebration - was complete with decorations and homemade key lime pie.
Captain Juan's skills (and patience) navigating us to all the destinations we wanted to visit in the BVIs were greatly appreciated. You constantly helped us with the paddleboards, Seabob, and dinghy trips. And did we mention taking John out kiteboarding and foiling? Thank you! We are very thankful for your hospitality, kindness, and can-do attitude. We had so much fun!!! Where should we all go next??? Muchas gracias!
P.S. You are always welcome to visit us (and the orcas) in Washington State.
P.P.S. An extra thank you for keeping us - and all of our stuff - organized all week!
Kristen & John Dietz ❤️
Juan & Rochi! Thank you for such a perfect week enjoying the BVIs! We loved all the beautiful and creative meals and cocktails, which were always served with perfect precision! We especially appreciate your flexibility and creative approach to our "wish list" and how you assembled daily itineraries that allowed us to experience everything on our list... and more! Loved experiencing Saba Rock, The Bitter End Yacht Club, Cooper Island... and so many swim and snorkeling spots! You are always welcome in Seattle - I will show you a great time!

You both made this such a special and unique adventure for us
Dear Juan & Rochi,
This will forever be our favorite family trip! You both made this such a special and unique adventure for us, and we can't imagine anything ever beating this. Rochi, your cooking was really some of the best we've ever had! Every single thing you made for us (including your Painkillers and banana drinks) was incredible! Cameron is our "picky" eater, and the fact that she not only ate everything you made but still says your food was her favorite part of the week says so much!
Juan, your attentiveness to our children was truly special. They had such a blast, multiple times a day, with all of the water activities! Snorkeling, the Seabob, tubing, e-foiling, paddleboarding... never a dull moment for anyone! You sparked a big interest in boats for Colin, and we appreciate how much time you gave him to test out his captain skills. You also created the perfect route for sailing and daily agendas that were not only adventure-filled but always left time for relaxing and just enjoying the serene life of being on the water with the most magical scenery.
You both were the perfect team, with such calm and peaceful demeanors, yet kept everything so organized and fun. We cannot thank you enough for giving us the most incredible experience that we will surely do again soon! And hopefully it’s with you! We will miss you guys and remember you always.
Sincerely,
The Hoglunds (Matt, Katie, Colin & Cameron) ❤️
¡Qué alegría tan grande conocerlos!
Queridos Juan y Rochi:
¡Qué alegría tan grande conocerlos! Pasamos una semana única. Muchas gracias por su profesionalismo, sus atenciones, dedicación y su buen humor.

Queridos Rochi & Juan:
Siempre disfrutamos navegar con familia y amigos. Sin crew. Jamás me imaginé que podríamos cambiar de idea. Pero en realidad, ustedes se sintieron como familia y amigos. Nos cambiaron toda la experiencia de navegar; disfrutamos muchísimo ser "guests" y no estar a cargo del resto. Son unos genios totales. No hay palabras para contarles lo que disfrutamos cada detalle, cada mimo que nos hicieron. Nos sentimos cuidados, queridos, mimados e importantes. Los adoramos.
¡Nos vemos pronto!
Silvie & Gerry
The food and hospitality were five-star!
Rochi & Juan,

Thank you so much for helping make this the best vacation ever!! You are a great couple and it was so wonderful getting to know you both. The food and hospitality were five-star! My favorite day was getting to go to the Baths with you coming along with us. We would definitely do this experience again. If we do, the next crew will have very big shoes to fill. Best wishes to you both for your future endeavors, and may you be blessed with many children. You will be awesome parents!

We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We had the best time, best food, and best crew. As the organizer of this trip, you did not disappoint and helped to make this a once-in-a-lifetime trip as I promised it would be to our gang. You were amazing, and it was nice to hear about your lives, plans, and goals. Good luck in your future together; you are a great team. We will miss you the most in the BVI.

What can we say? This trip has far exceeded our expectations! From the moment we set foot on the Andiamo to our last breakfast, we have so many memories. Every meal was delicious, and every excursion that we went on was far beyond what we expected. Juan taking us around in the dinghy to fulfill our daily adventures was wonderful. All your attention to our every need was met with courtesy and smiles. My heart is full; Darren and I have been able to relax and recharge. We wish you both all the best in your future with your careers on land and your family.
Darren & Martha
