Dear Carlos and Maribel,
Where do we start? Our family normally goes on cruises., but this year we wanted to try something interesting, unique and WOW! We are so glad we did!
From Carlos´s exceptional sailing expertise, knowing the BEST snorkeling spots, hiking trails, island restaurants and for recommending the sweetest tour lady named ´Patsy´.
And Maribel, your food all week was so amazing and scrumptious! We know you attended cooking school and enjoy cooking, but also think you were born with a lot of culinary skills, too. Thank you for baking Brad a birthday cake! Candles and all. So thoughtful of you!
We all had the most memorable vacation because of you both and really appreciate your help with that. Our boys had tons of fun knee-boarding and so did their 54 year old dad! LOL
We will certainly miss you both and our lovely conversations during the day.
Thank you so very much!

Carlos and Maribel:
This has been an amazing week-long journey, whose highlights for us included sugar-sand beaches and aquamarine waters for swimming and snorkeling; thrills (for the younger folks) of speeding around on a raft being pulled by a dinghy and it´s speed-loving skipper; fabulous flavors and new tastes during extraordinary meals.
But there was another entire journey: the one of getting to know you, and this journey has also been a great pleasure. We are astounded at how quickly we felt a true part of your floating home. Thank you for welcoming us into your home with such warmth & humor, and for giving us so much fascinating insight into the people and places we encountered along the way.
Thank you for being our guides through a small slice of your paradise, the BVI.

Thank you doesn´t seem to be enough. You both created a wonderful week for my family, and when challenges arose, you gracefully helped us move past and back into fun. It was a pleasure getting to know both of you and all your efforts throughout the week are so appreciated. Maribel, your cooking was delicious! I was selfishly pleased during meal time that one of my kids had lost her appetite and I could finish her plate! Carlos, every day you created a new and fun adventure for us. My kids will forever remember their firsts dive gliding sub-wing experience, and so many wonderful moments. Thank you for all of it. And that medicine cabinet was HUGE! Not sure how this would have gone without it.

Captain Carlos and Chef Maribel,
Thank you for providing the trip of a lifetime! Your attention, care, and professionalism was much appreciated, especially sailing us through rough waters and feeding us with absolutely exceptional meals! I will cherish these memories forever. You have given us a love for the BVI and I certainly hope to return again.
This has been the trip of a lifetime! Staying at different islands each night and seeing new things each day was so fun. But the food was the highlight for me! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

We had an absolutely delightful cruise on ALIZE with Carlos and Maribel. We enjoyed sailing to all the different moorings to explore the shore offerings and water fun. Our favorite was Virgin Gorda. The red flag at The Baths turned out to be a blessing when we got a special tour of the island and still got to the Baths via land instead. And Maribel´s food! Each time Carlos delivered plates we all gasped at the beautiful presentation and then raved about the flavors and variety.
We were here 17 years ago and it is just as magical now as it was then. Great vacation! Very relaxing.

Carlos and Maribel,

Thank you for an incredible and absolutely wonderful week. It truly has been so enjoyable and perfect for our family. We have sincerely appreciated your incredible hospitality and opening your home to us.
We have loved a quiet week filled with breathtaking views, unforgettable sunrises and sunsets, great history lessons from Carlos and meals that words can´t describe. Maribel, your creativity and amazing culinary talents were both beautiful and delicious. Thank you for all your attention to details and sharing new dishes for us to enjoy (and take pictures of).
The quiet time together on the water was exactly what we were looking forward to-but it was beyond our expectations.
Thank you Carlos and Maribel. We sincerely enjoyed our time with you and sailing the BVIs.

We feel so fortunate to not only have sailed the BVI , but to do it on ALIZE, profited by your experience and hospitality! We greatly appreciate your experience in offering charters for years prior to our arrival. The things we had planned in our heads did not compare to your suggestions. Plus, as a worry-wart, Becky was never nervous for one second, knowing we were in great hands.
The food...Oh the food! Maribel, you spoiled us with meals we have never seen, much less tasted. They not only were delicious, but beautiful also. We were delighted to have this as a culinary vacation.!
Thank you for opening your home to us . We are so grateful.
May calm seas, blue skies and favorable winds define your remaining years.

Wow... what an amazing vacation! Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful home and for coordinating such an incredible experience for us. From sailing to snorkeling, from each location to every extraordinary meal, we had the best time. Scott loved being on a boat again and paddle-boarding for the first time. For us sisters, it was great to simply be together here, especially sitting up top with both of you while we sailed. If anyone needs lessons about using the dinghy ladder, Claire is always available.
Thank you again for everything- ha sido una semana inolvidable! We hope we can sail again with you soon.

For so many reasons over this past year we thought this trip was not going to happen. We are so thrilled that it did!! We loved being onboard ALIZE. Your insights on the islands, activities and itinerary were invaluable. Our time aboard ALIZE will be remembered for the evening sunsets & breezes, ´Caribbean showers´, great conversation, a lot of fun activities, wonderful cocktails and THE FOOD!! We have always felt that our travel has given us many gifts... The people we meet along the way are definitely one of those gifts- we will remember fondly our time spent with both of you! We hope to join you again on a future sailing adventure.

Dear Maribel and Carlos,

As you found out, even though Carlos suspected it, I was hesitant to come to the BVI since I had never done anything like this before and was nervous about how I would fit in. Your gracious hospitality and reassuring calmness put me right at ease and truly this was a wonderful experience that I would like to do again. Probably my most fond memory will be getting to know the both of you, hearing of some of your grand adventures and traveling insights.
Thank you for making our ´mid-pandemic´ charter the best it could be. The service was top notch, the food was five stars and outstanding and the company most enjoyable.
Con toda mi gratitud y deseo por las mejores bendiciones de Dios!!

Dear Maribel and Carlos,

What a marvelous trip this has been! I really had no idea what to expect. This trip was planned as a celebration of my 50th birthday and I wasn´t in the loop, so to speak. Add to that all the ever changing Covid regulations and I was not enthusiastic.
That being said...
Once I was on the ALIZE, in your capable hands, I was at HOME. The anxiety and apprehension...GONE!!
I was completely relaxed and my attitude shifted immediately. Thank you both so much for allowing us to share your home for these eight days. I was not disappointed about not being able to go on land due to the late Covid test results. I really am happiest when I´m with my sister. She´s my best friend. So I would have to say the whole trip was a SUCCESS!! We loved your cooking, Maribel. Every meal was a triumph! Carlos, your stories: so fabulous. Thank you for a safe and memorable experience. The BVI is beautiful but a trip with you two, even on swamp, would be worth it! I hope this is the first of several trips together.
