ANDIAMO

Thank you so so much for the most wonderful New Year’s week aboard Andiamo!
Dear Rochi & Juan, Thank you so so much for the *most wonderful New Year’s week aboard Andiamo!* You are such unbelievably warm, welcoming & attentive hosts. You made all of our wishes come true - beautiful, absolutely delicious and healthy meals plus every opportunity to be in the water. From multiple foiling sessions with Juan’s tips & encouragement, to snorkeling with rays & turtles, paddle boarding, zipping around on the sea bob, & tubing - we truly enjoyed ourselves! Your thoughtful selection of harbors (some we hadn’t been to before) set such a nicely relaxed pace giving us plenty of time to read, rest, draw & play card games (Thanks for joining and beating us in 21!). Another thing we really enjoyed was your teamwork as a professional couple; it elevated this charter to another level *(our best yet!)* and will certainly serve you both so well in your future together. We had an amazing time with you on Andiamo. Thank you!!!

This was our first family sailing cruise and we loved it!
It’s nearly Christmas Eve, but we got our gift early this year by being on Andiamo and spending time with Juan & Rochi. in the beautiful BVI’s. This was our first family sailing cruise and we loved it! The boat was great in all respects, very comfortable with a great layout for both family/gathering and private times. Juan & Rochi are awesome. We picked Andiamo based on their partnership and menu/cooking talents and they were simply both fantastic. They both give 5 stars service and attention to everything they do. Juan enjoyed taking us snorkeling, and using the dinghy to wakeboard with our kids. We would still be “lost” in The Baths without him! Rochi prepared countless appetizers, desserts, and snacks with care and creativity - it’s amazing what she & Juan can do in such a limited kitchen! Juan is a great bartender and we’d been busy at all hours - he even made tomato juice from scratch! Where there’s a will, there’s a way! Juan & Rochi are simply kind, smart, and wonderful people; they are curious, engaging, warm and symbiotic with one another. We love them and hope to see them again on Andiamo, or host them on their future trips to the U.S. With much gratitude, and Merry Christmas!

Thank you for taking such good care of us!
Words fail me. Thank you for taking such good care of us!!! You made what seemed an impossible task, let us forget what isto come and enjoy living in the moment. I appreciate your professionalism, your hard work, but mostly your kindness. This trip has spoiled us forever. Joe asked me to write that this has been the best vacation of his life, which, for him, is really saying something....!

Each day gets better and better!!!
Captain Juan and Chef Rochi, Thank you for treating us with so much care on your boat, Andiamo. It truly feels how much you enjoy putting in the effort to create the most beautiful moments for us. Juan is the most accommodating, and Rochi, thank you for the attention with the most exquisite and delicious food! Each day gets better and better!!! But even better than the scenery and the food is the lovely energy you both radiate on the boat at all times. I am very glad we chose to come to Andiamo with the two of you!!! We would definitely do it again. Xoxo, Gabriela & Eduardo & Captain EG (Paxon) - 07.14.2024

Wow!!! Best vacation ever!
Wow!!! Best vacation ever! Thank you for taking us on with such short notice - best decision we have ever made on vacation… Your hospitality was so appreciated by both of us and I have no idea how we are going to make our own beds and cook our own meals this week! ?? You two are just simply lovely and Andiamo is lucky to have had you for Season I! Thank you for taking us to all the most beautiful (and quiet!) spots (and for letting us sleep in). We hope to do this again with you. Much love! ?? Suzanne and Pat

Five star service!
Warm welcome, above average, comfortable surroundings, impeccable attention to detail, five star service, this was the level of service we received from our our adorable Captain and first mate mate, Juan + Rochi.... We sailed off on our adventure with our dear friends John and Lynn for a 2-week Catamaran adventure on Andiamo. We found the boat and cabins to be spotless, every day, when we returned from our adventures, we would find our cabins freshly cleaned with little extra touches. We specially loved  the daily quotes we would find on our bed. We found our personalized sailing charter to be above and beyond in meeting all our needs! Juan and Rochi’s kindness has no boundaries. Every day was a new adventure, Juan would start every morning with a story time for what could expect for the day, while Rochi served one of her over the top breakfast, followed up with a light lunch and the evening was topped off with a gourmet diner. Rochi is an amazing chef! Rob especially enjoyed cooking lessons. Juan surpassed all of our expectations with tailored water adventures, including sailing lessons, boat operational tour, guided water fun with all the toys, planning hikes, arranging car rentals, including following up to make sure we were well taken care of and including getting his captain discounts. All the while, always ensuring our safety and his first priority. Both Juan and Rochi never stopped to ensure our days were organized, jumping in to make boat repairs, always cleaning, polishing, making sure we had everything we needed, including trips to shore for that extra ingredient that was needed to guarantee a prefect meal. Thank you Juan and Rochi for all your tireless efforts all the laughs and all the little extras that made our trip so special. Our memories will always be treasured!!!   *And we are so much looking forward to booking with you guys again!!! Cheers!

You both went above and beyond to anticipate all of our needs!!!
Dear Rochi + Juan, You two are truly special people!!! ?? From the first day we met you on the boat we were greeted with Big Happy Smiles and that amazing positive energy continued throughout our two week adventure!!! ? You both went above and beyond to anticipate all of our needs!!! I was so pleasantly surprised that with all of my dietary restrictions I didn’t have a care in the world!!! Rochi is an unbelievable great chef!!! We own a fine dining restaurant in the states and her food rivals that of ours!!! Truly amazing food + healthy!!! Juan was always so happy to take us on any adventure we wanted. There were so many great moments that we all smile and laugh when we remember them!!! We could not have dream for a better team to help us de stress from our normal lives!!!! *We are so grateful for this wonderful trip!!! Thank you!!!. ?*

We felt so at home and comfortable. The most beautiful sweets! Watching the two of you work together gives up hope :) what a team!
Rochi and Juan, Gracie said this was the best vacation ever! Alex learned the value of wearing sunscreen :). Stephanie wants cooking lessons from Rochi ??. Bert is thankful that Captain Juan helped Stephanie get over her fear of boats. Fisher is thankful for Juan teaching him how to wingfoil. We felt so at home and comfortable. The most beautiful sweets! Watching the two of you work together gives up hope :) what a team! We had the best time sailing, playing, and the food was AMAZING! We hope that you sail another season so we can see you again next year. Love, the Diener Family

We would recommend Andiamo, Juan, and Rochi to anyone looking for a fantastic charter experience.
Oh my goodness, I have so much wonderful feedback about our trip. Juan and Rochi were fantastic! I would recommend them and the boat to anyone looking! We all loved them, and had a magnificent time. The food was delicious- truly thoughtful, intentional meals- all with fresh ingredients and tasty seasonings. They were very attentive in every way, not the least of which was having tasty cocktails and wine offered up at all the right times. The itinerary they suggested was perfect for our family, and gave us the opportunity to see many beautiful settings. The kids loved the SeaBob and we all really enjoyed snorkeling. Juan accommodated the kids' every wish to wakeboarding, kneeboarding, and tubing. He was also so kind to teach our youngest son about the fishing gear as they cast a line on our way to St. Barth’s. And Rochi could not have been more kind and doting on all of us- she even let our 9 year old daughter help her make delicious chocolate mouse for one of our deserts! Finally, the boat was beautiful and immaculate. Juan and Rochi kept all of the spaces very clean and organized. All of our wants and needs were taken care of perfectly and we had the most wonderful trip! We would recommend Andiamo, Juan, and Rochi to anyone looking for a fantastic charter experience.

The week was truly fabulous!
Dear Juan & Rochi, We had a wonderful week with you in the Grenadines! You're so sweet and attentive, even (& especially) during our little bout of seasickness & minor medical issue. You were also great in meeting our gluten free needs. Thank you for everything throughout the week, especially all the time the girls wanted to go tubing. The week was truly fabulous and we loved getting to know you. I enjoyed the Quote of the day cards on our bed each morning. We wish you all the best as you embark on your chartering journey! Love, The O’Connors (Erin, Brian & Cailin) & Evin & Charlotte
