Atlantia Guest Reviews
January 2025- Crew Review From Previous Yacht
Our week on the Grand Admiral was amazing thanks to Jeff, John, Tom, and Sue!! I couldn´t thank these folks more for helping our family make memories to last a lifetime! Jeff really came through with fabulous snorkeling spots and even got a group of dolphins to chase our wake. All hearts are happy!!
Can´t wait to see you all again!!
December 2024
Blue Ocean knows how much these experiences mean to their customers and do not take that lightly! Captain John is one of those captains that if anything unfortunate were to happen you feel you´re in good hands, not to mention he´s captained some of the largest vessels in the water and in the sky!! Team him up with Daniel, who we can´t wait to see become a captain himself, and it is an experience of a lifetime! Daniel served great drinks, helped the chef, very knowable of the island and great stories plus an awesome deck hand! Blue Ocean and their staff are the only option, do not work with anyone else..no need to!!
PS book Key West catering and make sure Zach Wolf is your guy, talk about someone finding their calling ´chefs kiss´ the food was the best and local with great stories and descriptions of the culinary process! Loved it!
December 2024
John and Amanda are amazing. Took us to see beautiful reefs. Had an absolute blast with these two.
1000% Recommend!
November 2024 - Crew Review From Previous Yacht
We had a fantastic time on Andiamo with Capt John and Amanda. They were so kind and laid back while being totally professional. We were lucky enough to find a couple of pods of Bottlenose Dolphins that hung out around Andiamo for quite a while. Truly magical.
September 2024
Captain John and Amanda were great, super knowledgeable about the area and insanely kind while out on our charter.
We even had a small issue with our AC unit and Captain John was back at the boat at 11 o´clock at night helping us rip apart the unit to get it working again.
We have nothing but amazing things to say about Captain John and Amanda and we hope you too get lucky enough to have them show you around this beautiful island they call home.
August 2024
We rented a 62 ft yacht for 4 days. Boat was Par T On. Sue helped us with our reservation and pre travel paperwork. She was great.
Hannah checked us in and was very professional and friendly. Turns out she was from our own home town. Great service.
Then on 20 August 2024 we had this pleasure of meeting Captain John Emlet and Mate Amanda.
We cruised around Key West all afternoon and finished up at sunset. Not only were they informative and professional but a great couple.
Was if we had been friends for years. We had the most fun day at sea ever, and a great time staying with Blue Ocean Yacht Charters. The company and people are amazing and everyone needs to experience what we have. Highly recommended.
August 2024
My fiance, two friends, and myself had such a wonderful time with John and Amanda on our day charter of the Florida Keys. They were pleasant hosts that allowed us to have a good time on our own while also being informative and flexible with our agenda for the day. Would highly recommend them for a wholesome boat experience with John and Amanda and Blue Ocean Yacht Charters
Crew Review From Previous Yacht
We spent a week long charter on Andiamo captained by the wonderful John Emlet and his beautiful wife, Amanda. John and Amanda were amazingly knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind. It was obvious from the start how much experience John has as a captain, and we always felt safe and at ease. By the end of the week they felt like family to us! They knew the best snorkeling spots, and we were blessed to see THOUSANDS of fish, sea turtles, sting ray, and even a shark! Our son (10) is a die hard fisherman, and Captain John and Amanda made sure to make sure he had a blast catching lots! We were even blessed to have John make us his famous seafood fettuccine, which was incredible!! We would recommend them to anyone, and we are already making plans to charter and use them again. The catamaran, Andiamo, that we chartered worked perfectly for our family of four, was clean, and was stocked with everything we needed for the week. We had the best vacation and can´t wait to return!
