Kajikia Guest Reviews
Charter on September 10-17, 2023 in Corsica & Sardinia - Family of 8 from Switzerland
The M family from Lausanne had a dream week. Wow!
We knew we were traveling on a dream boat, but we didn´t think we´d be lucky enough to be accompanied by such an incredible, professional, attentive crew.
Fred, our captain, is a pro like no one we´ve ever known, who knows how to lead his team with great professionalism. He showed us some wonderful places.
Vanessa, direct and professional, brilliantly anticipating every detail to make the boat as comfortable as possible.
Iris, sensitive, smiling and attentive, who gave us perfect service and made our rooms the most comfortable and welcoming, always in a good mood even in the late hours.
Karlo, unrivalled, who delighted us and knew how to adapt his menus to everyone´s tastes.

A wonderful trip aboard Kajikia, from Bonifacio to St Florent.
Great crew. Thanks to you 4, we were all at our best, from sunrise to sunset, in the turquoise waters of the most beautiful coves, in front of Karlo´s ever more gourmet plates.
Many thanks to Fre, Vanessa, Karlo & Iris for these 10 days spent with us.
We wish you all the best and hope to see you soon in Antigua!
We couldn´t have dreamed of a better way to celebrate our wedding anniversary as a family. What wonderful memories!
A sushi party on a deserted beach for our candlelit dinner! Ah Scandola with Serge! Corsican songs with dad´s lobster pasta... An early morning céfé in a little bar in Girolata among the wild cows... lots of pretty coves... sunshine, a bit of storm and tempest to better appreciate the rest of the stay... Karlo´s delicious recipes and the smiles of Iris, Vanessa and Fred...
Thank you all for a wonderful stay!
Magnifique séjour à bord de Kajikia, de Bonifacio à St Florent.
Equipage de choc. Grâce à vous 4 nous étions tous au top, du lever au coucher de soleil, dans les eaux turquoises des plus belles criques, devant des assiettes de Karlo toujours plus gourmandes.
Mille mercis à Fre, Vanessa, Karlo & Iris. pour ces 10 jours passés en fmaille.
Bon vent à tous et à bientôt à Antigua!
On ne pouvait pas réver mieux pour féter en famille notre anniversaire de mariage. Que de beaux souvenirs!
Une sushi party sur une plage déserte pour notre diner aux chandelles! Ah Scandola avec Serge! Les chants corses avec les pâtes aux langoustes de son papa... Un céfé matinal dans un petit bar à Girolata au milieu des vaches sauvages... plein de jolies criques... du soleil, un peu d´orage et de tempête pouf mieux apprécier tout le reste du séjour...
