Charter Yacht NAMASTE Guest Reviews
***August 7-14, 2023***
Our stay at the Namasté has been a wonderful experience. From the beginning, both the Captain and the crew have had an unbeatable treatment, they have been very attentive to us, solving any need we had. His professionalism has been unsurpassed. Friendly, effective, sociable, they took care of even the smallest detail. Without a doubt, we will repeat.***March 23-30, 2024***
I just finished a 30-minute phone call with Doug and they truly had the time of their lives. He went from someone who was saying that this will be a bucket list trip, to when can I charter next. Hats off to the crew, he loved every single one of them and couldn’t praise them enough. They said chef Mike prepared the best week of food they ever had (10/10). They would sail with captain Tom & crew anywhere. Captain Tom is an obvious professional and you can tell that he leads by example. His team works tirelessly, and they are the most charming and engaging people. The yacht was just as described, the volume of living space is perfect. The linens and beds were great, not a bad thing to say about the boat at all. No flaw from a user perspective. Charter was a 10/10! Well-done crew of Namaste! Home run, we thank you!***November 26, 2024***
