Such an amazing adventure.

What an amazing trip we have had. It has been such an amazing adventure. We love searching for new surf spots and snorkeling with the amazing fish and reef. Xander's food was something we looked forward to everyday and was so yummy. It was an unforgettable trip and we thank you both so much. ♡, Snyders :-)
Best surf captain's ever! Barrels for life! Love, Craig

More fulfilling than we could have ever hoped for.

Serene, connected, intimate. Xander created an experience that we will carry with us for a lifetime.
Authentic kindness + a love for the place made for an adventure so much more fulfilling than we could have ever hoped for.
We truly felt at home + well cared for. Perfect pacing and really 'getting' our family's vibe resulted in the closest thing we've ever come to A PERFECT TRIP!! WANG!!

An incredible week!

Dear Chris (aka Chris cross applesauce) 
Thank you for a great senior year graduation tour! You are an amazing captain! Thank you for taking us to so many beautiful places! We loved to sail, even when we were soaked on the net. Some of our most memorable moments were…
Losing your hat to the ocean 
Grilling 
Surviving the torrential rain
Thank you both for an incredible week filled with sailing, snorkeling, paddle boarding, photo shoots, and truly a day even better than each preceding day!

We will cherish our time together!

Thank you for the fun times & incredible memories you helped us create, we will cherish our time together! The men loved the diving spots and the gals snorkeled every day enjoying the ocean scenery! Xander was always on watch, the equipment worked great and was well organized. Xander's menus were more pictures of his amazing food presentations than the island scenery. Xander's cooking, artistic ability and menus was GREATLY appreciated! Wow, what an awesome trip. I can't wait to create a photo book to share with Xander & friends in AZ & UT! AGAIN THANK YOU for our wonderful BVI adventure! Warmest regards, Mike O'Connor, & Betsy Weightman

This week was absolutely unforgettable.

From the beautiful spots we were able to see, to the incredible food and endless laughs, this week was absolutely unforgettable. Chef Xander... we can't thank you enough for a truly amazing trip. It was so fun to trust the process, embrace the surprises, and roll with the punches along the way. We hope the next group has just as much fun as we did... and that they're a little bit better at keeping the sand on the beaches to save your sanity.
Thank you for a vacation we'll always remember! 
-Andrea, Chris, Michelle, Joel, Steve & Sarah

What an unforgettable week!

Captain Chris
What an unforgettable week! From the moment we stepped aboard you made us feel less like guests + more like friends. Thank you for safely guiding us through these stunning islands and playing along as "the man we need!" You've made #savethemamas extra special.
With Love Krista

Incredible trip of a lifetime!

Captain Chris 
Thank you so very much for an incredible trip of a lifetime. BVI has been on our list for years and was worth the wait because of you . Your knowledge of the boat, the sea and where to go to get the best spots allowed us to relax and simply enjoy everything. Thank you for giving us our “20 year reunion” of a lifetime. 100%, five star service :)
