Charter Reviews
S.R., Hermosa Beach, CA (April 2017)
"I recently had the opportunity to go sailing on Eros with my son, some of my best buddies and their sons. What an experience! The boat is beautiful - everything it's advertised to be. We hit surfing and snorkeling spots you can't get to without a boat. We did some fishing, took many father/son kayak trips and just soaked up the amazing sun and waters of the BVIs. Simply put, a trip we will remember forever."
B.D., San Gabriel, CA (2017)
"Excellent in every way. Loved the sailing. We wouldn’t change a thing."
J.M., Denver, CO (2017)
“Our group of seven ladies absolutely loved every minute of our five days on board Eros; we are very grateful for the experience and look forward to returning with husbands and kids.”
R.J., New York, NY (2017)
"We had an amazing time. Eros is a spectacular yacht, the crew was excellent, the USVI were beautiful and the weather was good too! The highlight of the trip was sail down passage between USVI & BVI. We also had great time with anchored activities: diving off transom/swimming around Eros; snorkeling with colorful reef fish, turtles and a sting ray; seeing spotted eagle rays jumping out of the water; enjoying delicious meals; “skurfing” (one son learned to waterski, the other learned to wake board); spending two afternoons on uncrowded beaches; etc. Great family time!”
J.S., Orange County, CA (2017)
“The sailing and island hopping experience of a lifetime.”
January 2012
Many thanks to the crew of Eros for a memorable experience. You treated us with such courtesy from the time that we arrived on Eros to our warm goodbyes. Our cruise Downeast along the Maine coast featured wonderful sailing, cozy anchorages, a variety of options for shopping, dining, or hiking ashore, and wonderful meals on the boat. We especially enjoyed happy hours and dinners around the cockpit table with party lights strung around the deck for ambiance as we watched the sunset across the water. Eros was fun to sail on a reach with the rig powered up. The Chef and food were amazing and you even met our wish for a lobster bake onshore. Thanks for the extra effort, and thanks too for entertaining us one night by singing sea chanties. -
Each day brought grand adventures and numerous moments of happiness. There, literally, is nothing more that could have been done to make it any better. Many thanks to you and the entire Eros crew for giving our families a vacation week we will never forget. -
