2018 April – 60th Birthday Celabrations

What an amazing 60th birthday celebration!
The food was delicious, the service was first rate and the accommodation was the best. Everything was planned to perfection and you made it seem effortless. And, oh how can you throw a party! Thank you so much for showing us your piece of paradise that is the BVI and we can´t wait to come back again! We loved the yoga, the snorkeling, the meals (THE MEALS!), the chill time and the entertainment (best music ever!)

Was like summer camp for adults 🙂 Elise and Tim
Thank you for a totally awesome week in the Caribbean Sea! Sweet friends- fantastic new friends – incredible snorkeling and sailing, excellent music – and the most exceptional experience was Daniela´s delicious food. Whom! 3 meals a day, beautifully presented and effortlessly served with a sweet smile. We totally enjoyed our 60th birthday celebration. Thank you all for a job well done.

You have only our best wishes, thoughts and prayers…xoxo William and Donna

Sailing BVI aboard the LUXURY catamaran Shangri La. Our Captain, Cook and crew were AMAZING!! Such a stress free vacay aboard Shangri La as the crew catered to our every needs—they SPOILED us!!

Thank you so much Bernd, Captain, Manager and Perfectionist and Daniela Chef, Master Yoga Instructor and an all arround “LOVELY” person inside and out! Thank you for such a wonderful and enjoyable experience! It surpassed all our expectations of a LUXURY sailing experience! I feel so blessed to have found your vessel.

You are the perfect boat & crew. It’s very clear why Shangri La won 2nd best boat at the show—an award you should be very proud of!

You and the Captain make a great team The Land Of Oz Crew (Kansas is often referred to this from the famous movie The Wizard Of Oz): Dave, Debbie, Tom, Cindy, Margie, Ron, Rich & Nancy

PS: We couldn’t wait to see what you were cooking for dinner. It was so fun looking forward to your lovely & delicious meals!

2018 February – Happy Sailing

We had 12 wonderful days aboard Shangri La in the BVIs.

Dani and Lena took care of wonderful culinary highlights each day that we had to „work off“ in the morning with yoga. Bernd spoiled us with secluded beaches and coves. It was a fantastic island hopping – with snorkeling, bathing, fun in the water, on board or at the beach.

Bernd made every day special. His local knowledge and his sailing skills are enormous. From the first moment on we felt so comfortable. Dani & Bernd are a perfect team that pampers their guests very personal and professional from morning to evening with Kaiserschmarren „all you can eat“ accompanied with Viennese Waltz music, or barbecue night, great steaks by Bernd prepared on the Weber Grill with Caribbean sounds under the beautiful starry sky.

Yes, here comes everybody the mood for a wild dance party with great music. It has been great fun with you, keep doing this and again a very warm thank you for the wonderful time with you.

2017/2018 – Happy New Year!

I wanted to thank you for your help with our BVI trip. We had an incredible time.

The catamaran, Shangri La, was perfect. Well-appointed with great rooms and for such a small space, we never felt like we were on top of each other. The crew was fabulous. Bernd (the captain) was always ready with ideas of where to go—we visited the Baths on Virgin Gorda, snorkeled at a few famous and wonderful spots, including the Indians. He set up an impromptu sundowner on a beach one night, made cocktails and set up a limbo game with a tree branch. Super fun.He was always making fun cocktails and the boat had tons of fun activities using the dingy—there was tubing and wake boarding and something called a sub-wing which we’d never heard of. The kids tried it all (as did most of the adults.) Then, during the sails, we rested and read and napped.

A perfect combination of down time and activities. The food was also incredible—fresh tuna steaks, rib eye, sashimi, a stuffed pork tenderloin and Daniela (the chef) was great about accommodating the kids’ more limited palates. If you have clients interested in the BVIs (or a catamaran in that region), I would strongly recommend Shangri La. I hope you’ll pass on our thanks to the boat company, too.

All in all, it was a perfect trip. Chris ranks it top 2 with Africa and I think I agree.
We look forward to going back!

This has been such a fantastic trip – a week of relaxing, sailing, eating, drinking, and being together with my sister and her family. Thank you so much for sharing your fantastic spots with us. We look forward to coming back for another week. You guys are WONDERFUL!

Love, Daniella, Luke, Will, Nicole, Jack, and Claire
There hasn’t been a better week in my life that I can remember. Certainly for me, the Caribbean and the Virgin Islands are amazing, but the crew of Shangri La were incredible, and this trip has been a beautiful moment in time for me. I am forever in your debt.

Thanks and with Love, Nicole and Blake
