REVERIE

To the best crew ever!

Thank you for answering excellent week? We not only enjoyed the beautiful scenery, but also yhe fabulous company of the crew. Anegada was our favourite to see all these beaches! And great snorkeling outside of Saba Rock. Each & every meal was incredible and we loved them all. Everything from Jetske - so good. Jetske’s Pink Painkiller was the greatest! Yummy. Thanks for everything, we will always have great memories of our week together.

Captain Doyle & Crew made our week on the Reverie the vacation of a lifetime. We spent most of the trip looking forward to Christina’s next meal! Jetske was incredible to us and made sure we had everything we needed from sun up to sun down. The crew knew all of the best spots around and our itinerary maximised our time in Paradise! Overall, the combination of a beautiful boat, breathtaking scenery and a wonderful crew made this a trip we will NEVER forget!

Jetske, Christina & Doyle,

You three truly made this vacation incredible! This crew worked so well together and made sure everything we had on board was perfect! I can’t thank you all enough + I’m excited for all of you - where your next adventures take you!

Maya & Mayson

A beautiful time was had by all! Doyle, Christina & Jetske were the perfect hosts. They were truly professional but fun and joined us with laughs, stories & sarcasm. The Reverie is a lovely vessel which made our journey super comfy. Thank you you for showing us the wonders of the BVI- we will be back.

Scott & Adrienne

Reverie crew- we cannot say a big enough thank you for the best week onboard! From your youngest passengers to some unexpected tumbles and Band-Aid hoarding, you helped make some of the best memories and wonderful sailing trip for everyone!

Thank you for amazing meal after meal, for delicious daily cocktails, for shared conversationd and birthday & graduation celebrations. We are leaving with hearts so full from spening this special time together as a family, but we are so lucky that we had you all to share alongside us.

Wishing you the best on all next adventures and hope our paths cross again one day!

With love, the Onufrieff-Andrew-Armstrong family.

Doyle- you run a great ship and I am sure you will run a great ranch as well. Thank you so much for taking us to Anegada, and for showing us the “real” Anegada. It’s easy to relax when you feel secure with you as captain. Super job!

Christina- What amazing food! Your care in shopping 14 vendors really shows in your dishes. Everything was beautifully prepared & presented. Best of luck!

Jetské (Sassy) - You’re the best! You made the trip so much fun. I wish you the best in your career ahead.

~Barabars Loutos

The Reverie crew was the best crew that we have had out of our four charters. They were pleasent and accommodating and made the week a wonderful experience, the food was spectacular as was the humor of the staff.

We had an exceptional week and highly reccomend Reverie.

Charmaine & Payl Berggeen

Many thank you’s, what an amazing team! Watching you all work together for the week was truly an experience. This has been an amazing trip. Captain Doyle keeping it all moving, Christina cooking, I would fly in just for that. Then there’s Jetské, the most amazing find. A girl wise beyond her years, with a future as bright as she wants it to be. Love them all, love to all, thank you.

~Mark

P.S Don’t trust Jetske in card games :)

Doyle, Christina & Jetské

Our trip is beyond what I can express here. BVI Charter Vacation has been on my wish list for years & all of you brought my wish to reality. Reverie is a floating “four seasons”, but what was way beyond my expectations is the three of you. Thoroughly enjoyed how you work as a team, your warmth, kindness and humor. Jetske, your drinks & smiles always brightened our days. Christina, your culinary talents are amazing. Every dish was a pleasure to watch you display your skills and share your knowledge and life stories. Love, live & laugh! Hope to see another time, in Sonoma.

Reverie- that is what you have done for us in this trip of a lifetime. If our paths do not cross again I wish you beautiful lives. All gratitude and love to you Christina, Jetsk and Doyle.

~Allyson

To the crew, you have all been so wonderful to us, it exceeded my expectations. Montana is a far cry from sailing in the ocean. Doyle, good luck of god speed on your cowboy adventure. Christina, you are the best chef I have ever been around. Jetske, you will make a great captain one day!

~The “flat-lander” Jack

Doyle, Christina & Jetske

Words cannot begin to describe our experience with you aboard Reverie. The drinks, food & company were exquisite & nothing we have ever experienced before. Although Christina is sharing her recipes, I don’t think anything she has cultivated will ever be able to be recreated by us. Her presentation, flavors & creativity were done by that of a master & someone who loves what they do. Leonard was also a ship favourite & good addition to the crew… excellent bacteria Leonard! Jetske, although you made me drink enough water to drown an elephant, I forgive you. All jokes aside you are an amazing steward. You will go far in life & never limit yourself. I honestly don’t know how you come up with our daily drinks but they were all 10/10. Drinks (water for Hannah) and jokes were flowing & a good yimr was had by all. Anytime you want to visit us you are welcome in Sonoma & Montana. Doyle, or shall we say Doily? Thank you for sharing your knowledge of sailing & life stories. You handpicked an amazing crew & this trip was nothiny short of extraordinary. All our sailing stops were beautiful & we loved every one of them. I also think Jack has a massive man crush on you & rir mention to me if you ever wanted to come up in Montana & hunt you are more than welcome. Which is not something he says to many people.. we’ll even throw in our pony- for free. We will miss you guys & thank you for this amazing experience. We are sad to leave you :( Thank you for everything.

Captain Doyle, Christina and Jetske,

We can’t begin to thank you enough for the most beautiful, amazing vacation we have ever been on. You all have such attention to detail and truly spoiled us. We don’t want to leave. From getting to sail to gorgeous beached, eating delicious food, enjoying our “drink of the day” so much fun. We are so fortunate to have met you all and hope that if you are over in Sonoma that you will come and visit. We really appreciate all you have done for us. This was definitely a trip of a lifetime. Thank you! We love you guys!

~Alicia Herrick

Capt. Doyle, Christina, Jetske and Leonard. Nothing short of extraordinary- truly a one in a lifetime, bucket list experience that exceeded every expectation we had. So much so, we’ll be back in April of 2027!!

Captain Doyle is phenomenal, navigator, storyteller, and musician. We'll miss him when we come back and pray he teaches peers all of his tricks. The food and drinks under Christina and Jetske would be reason enough to take this trip again. Everything was delicious and we are so thankful that Leonard behaved himself on this trip. Thank you both for making us feel so loved and thank you for sharing the recipes with us. Thanks for an unforgettable adventure with dear friends that we will never forget.

All of our Texas Love, The Crofts

Doyle, Christina & Jetske

Where do we even begin to describe the trip of a lifetime that you all gave us?? We will remember this forever.

This entire trip has been a “ROSE”, weather and flies be damned! Endless thanks for the impeccable service, culinary expertise & warm friendships.

We didn’t violate the “no fly zone”, only slammed a couple of doors & we had no heavy feet! Thank you again for the incredible memories and all the laughs!

All our love,

Ted & Anita, Dave & Becky, Kelly & Betsy

Reverie

I want to express our heartfelt appreciation for the amazing vacation we have had aboard your boat. From start to finish it has truly been unforgettable. The crew was fantastic, attentive, kind, and incredibly skilled. Y’all made every moment feel special, seamless, and fun! Thank you for exceptional service and hospitality and genuine care. Even when things did not go as plan it ended up being one of my favorite days seeing you play guitar and be in the moment with us.

Thank you again and hope to sail with you again!

Dear Crew,

This was the best trip of my life. You guys have set my standards so high. I don’t know if any trip could top this. You guys are now like family. I will miss you guys.

Dear, Dylan ♡

Dear crew,

This was such an amazing trip and one of the best trips I’ve been on. You have been so nice and funny. I’ve tried so many new things on this trip, definitely the clearest water I’ve been in. Such an amazing adventure with the best crew ever. This would be one of the trips I will tell to my kids. This was so FUN!

Love, Cricket! 💕💓

Doyle, Jetské & Christina —

Thank you doesn’t seem to truly capture how I feel as we come to a close to this amazing experience. Thank you for keeping us safe, fed, and with a big beautiful smile on your faces.

I know this is not goodbye, rather see you next time.

With love and gratitude —

Jane, Dylan & Charlie “Cricket”

We love you

What an amazing week!! Food, hospitality — I could go on & on. It will be a trip my family will never, never forget.

I love our Captain Doyle; as a matter of fact, we want him to come home with us — the best chef on the face of this earth!

Our family has said this is the best vacation they have ever had. I never think we could match this in any way.

I love you,

Ruth & Harold Pugh

To the best crew/boat in the BVI —

Thank you for the most amazing trip our family has ever been on. The memories will be talked about at dinner tables and family gatherings for generations to come.

With love and gratitude,

Jarrett & Janae

Where do we even begin… This has been such an amazing experience for our entire family. It takes a special crew to manage this group… and you nailed it! (Well, except the Capt. 😉)

We are going to be telling stories about this trip for decades. This has been such a special trip to share for Thanksgiving, & then to be able to spread Dallas’ ashes was over the top!

Thank you all so much!

Leanne

OMG THE BEST TRIP OF MY LIFE!!! ♡♡

Thank you guys so much for an amazing trip, it really changed everyone’s life in such a positive way. I will cherish this trip forever and every single memory made. It was so fun and the crew truly made it more special. I love all 3 of you for each of your special talents and everything that you guys do. It was amazing and nothing will beat it. I hope you guys have a great rest of your season and I hope we will meet again. ♡♡♡

LOVE, TAYLOR THOMPSON

Having been many places in the world I have met a lot of cool people, but I may never forget you guys Doyle thank you for your patience and answering all my questions. Maya I have never had so many amazing meals in my life. Seeing your passion for food is special and I hope you keep fostering it Car. Thank you for making me all those Shirley Temple. It was so cool to watch you work on the boat as well scuba diving is my all-time favorite thing and thank you for being such an amazing dive master. All of you guys are hilarious and I will forever cherish the memories you guys helped create on this trip. Thank you all for fostering my love of the ocean Cam Moran.

Dear Captain Doyle, Chef Maya, and first made Caro

Thank you for the most amazing week aboard Reverie your warmth care and incredible service made every moment unforgettable he turned a dream into reality in BVI for us. Until next time.

Lots of love, Monty and Dinah Burch

Thank you for an absolutely stellar trip. It has been nothing but smooth sailing no doubt the greatest crew on the ocean. Not all heroes wear capes

Sincerely, Brennam, Luke Hawkins

Captain Doyle,

Your god-given talent is leadership. You have picked two of the best crew members imaginable and the three of you together are outstanding. I have watched you over the past week and all I can say is wow. Watching you captain Reverie was impressive. I always felt safe and extremely confident with you at the helm. Thank you for making this my very best vacation of my life. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience.

Chef Maya,

Are you kidding me? Every single one of your meals were amazing. My favorite was definitely your red curry - I need your recipe! All week long I saw how hard you worked, your love for each dish and your smile - genuine smile, when you served us. Whatever you do in this life - you will be wildly successful. It’s rare to see someone with as much talent as you, work as hard as you do. I hope our paths cross again one day - you are incredible!

Caro - best deckhand ever

Caro, you made our trip so special. You are so kind, hard- working, fun and it’s impressive to see how skilled you are at your job assisting Doyle with the boat. Andrea wasn’t lying when she said she wants to put you in her pocket and take you home forever. As someone who has worked within a small crew on a fire truck, you are hands down one of the hardest workers I’ve seen within a crew and you’re obviously someone who fits in well and will be successful in whatever you do in life. It was a pleasure spending a week with you!

Victoria & Travis, Jason & Mandy, Chris & Andrea, ansel & Sheryl.

To the incredible crew of Reverie,

This week felt like a dream choreographed to perfection but still relaxed, light and personal. You struck that impossible balance between luxury and ease, formality and fun.

Thank you for delivering an experience that was flawless, fun and far beyond anything we could have imagined. We came aboard expecting beautiful views. We’re leaving in awe of the people who made them unforgettable.

Captain Doyle- your calm command and quiet precision made us feel like we were in the best possible hands. You somehow always found the perfect beach, the perfect view and somehow - always - the perfect song to match. You didn’t just take us around the USVI + BVI, you gave us the perfect place to honor Chris and make new memories along the way thinking. We are so grateful.

Chef Maya, you are a world class chef every dish you created was a work of art, creative refined, and possibly delicious. We’re still dreaming about every bite. You’ve raised the bar so high it may be dangerous.

Caro - from morning coffee to sunset cocktails, to keeping everything stunning, so smoothly behind the scenes, you did it all with such grace and warmth. Your presence made every single day better.

While living with sunburns, full hearts and completely unrealistic expectations for every future vacation, thank you for everything truly.

With admiration and appreciation,

Amy and Ted, Taylor and Michael

Captain Doyle,

You are a true “all rounder” as a sailor, crew leader, mentor, host and fun guy. It especially shows when you help with menial tasks and mentoring the crew. I am very glad to have watched you in action and you inspire me to be a better leader, especially cool, calm and fun.

Chef Maya,

You are a true wizard and seem to be unflappable under any condition. Anyone can see that you have set ambitious goals, executed with incredible discipline and achieve stunning results as a team player in the galley. The meals you prepared were delicious, visually appealing, healthy and made with love. I will remember your introductions to each dish where you spoke with a soft voice and warm smile.

First Mate Caro,

You exhibit warmth, grace and joy in everything you do, whether it is pulling in a jib sheet or offering a delicious libation. Your smile can light up a room and put everyone at ease. You are an adventurer and great team player. Thank you for your hospitality. I bet your mom counts down the days until she can see her talented and confident daughter.

Our Dearest Crew

We write to you tonight on the seventh night of our voyage on the sea. Lucky to have been on Reverie. It has been a voyage to pleasure!

Words fail to even begin to express how incredible this week has been. Maya's cooking is a true gift and we feel blessed to have witnessed and savored true culinary perfection!

Capt. Doyle hes been nothing short of phenomenal - his expertise and his command of the boat have been amazing to watch.

We feel honored to have been a part of the history of Nae Kae!

We will be back!

Dave, Lisa, Kate, Claire

Doyle and Maya!

Thanks for an awesome adventure this week. What a treat to get to sail with you. We will never get over this trip. The service was unlike anything we have done. Thank you for creating an awesome space for us to come together as friends. A great way to celebrate my 40th birthday! (And another birthday and anniversary :-))

Thanks for sharing such a special place with us!

Much love,

Carly, Lindsay, Collins, Matt, Jeffrey, Brett, Beth, and Alice

The crew was amazing. Doyle is extremely knowledgeable and always found the perfect spot. He was a perfect captain and having been on many boats myself as well as our guests...He was one of the absolute best. Maya was amazing. Her humor was perfect and engaged perfectly with the crew. Her food is off the charts and definitely the best in the Caribbean at sea!.

The yacht was very clean and they maintained it that way throughout.Their attention to detail was apparent but we were also able to live on the boat and enjoy all parts. we loved all aspects of the boat.

Food was amazing. We moved to half board and thought getting off the boat would be a good idea. We had some great meals and experiences off boat...Maya's food was the best!! She was very accommodating and listened to everyone!! It was personalized and perfect.

Jonathan

Doyle and Maya,

Where do we even start? From #Beryl/schedule changes to laughing so hard until we cried at Doyle during the name game, there isn’t a memory we won’t cherish for many years to come! The seas were rocky, but the times were good! Thank you for celebrating our 50th with us. You made the entire trip a fantastic trip with our favorite people.

I will never look at a sheet of paper, the same again. Thank you for opening up to us and sharing food, discussions, and loads of comedy! Thank you so much! I am not as gay as Brittan, but I am way more exciting! It’s not goodbye it’s see ya later! So grateful and thank you for answering all my questions, and inquiries!

The cookies! So good! The food and the steak and the rancheros and the ceviche and more good appetizers and cookies, so good! Can’t wait to sail again !

Heather, Jonathan, Dhani, Marsha, Britton and Will

Doyle and Maya,

Thank you for welcoming us into your home. You treat this boat with lots of care, love and respect and it shows!

We started this awesome vacation as strangers, and I feel we are leaving as friends! This has been an experience of a lifetime. I appreciate you learning all the little details of love makes each of us feel a little more special.

Maya… All I can say, is you are one HELL of a cook. Fabulous… each meal.

Discovering the different islands and learning about BVI was another highlight!

Doyle makes sure you see all of the best spots! Sorry for all the questions!! And for bringing Jack!

Enjoyed it all!!

Mark and Julie

Doyle and Maya,

I seriously don’t know where to start! I knew this trip would be amazing but you guys blew those expectations out of the water! All of my research did not even compare to this experience. You are both amazing at your jobs and amazing as beautiful people too. I only hope our paths cross again somewhere in the future. The beautiful places you took us, the amazing food, the peaceful and relaxing days that turned Into beautiful night. All the fun and laughter and we are so glad we all finally figured out each others humor!!! You work like a well oiled machine together and the eight of us will forever remember this trip and how you both made it even better! Remember, if you ever get to SoCal, we have lots of room for you to stay, and you won’t have to do a damn thing… Just relax like we did. Thank you for the best vacation I’ve ever been on! Keep in touch!

Sammi

Doyle and Maya,

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for one spectacular vacation. Giving 110% all day, every day as you both do is no easy task yet you both flow seamlessly together and make it appear a piece of cake!

Anticipating our needs is a knack you also both have. Doyle– I believe you may know Jack a tad better than I might. What a gift for seeing people and perhaps that is part of the reason this trip is so special.

Each and every spot we anchored, each and every meal we ate, just kept getting better and better. Maya, your talents know no bounds.

All the best wishes,

Lynne and Jack

Dearest Doyle and Maya,

Thank you both for an incredible trip filled with unforgettable memories. Both of you were a perfect team and made us feel so welcome the minute we stepped on the Nae Kae. This trip has far exceeded expectations and we will definitely come back for another excursion in the near future.

Doyle, your command of the boat was flawless and made us feel so comfortable and safe. Thank you for putting up with our little nuances and especially for the priceless drone flying lessons.

Maya, thank you for your exquisite culinary skills, for delighting our tastebuds, and for the many wonderful breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Your attention for detail did not go unnoticed, and we are grateful for you!

I hope both of you will consider visiting Costa Rica in your next travel endeavors.

Pura Vida,

Steve and Elizabeth

Maya and Doyle,

Thank you so much for the wonderful trip! You made everything enjoyable for our celebration. The impressive meals and going over and above for Aaron‘s dietary needs. Karen’s birthday was very special. Thank you for delivering the cake too! It was delicious. Beautiful boat, beautiful places. The trip met all expectations. Thanks for putting up with all our partying fun. We all wish you the best of luck with your new improved cat. And for the record, Arabian horses are not only the smartest, but also the prettiest.

Thank you again, stay juicy.

Love,

Thank you so much for a wonderful week! We thoroughly enjoyed the family time, sun, and getting to know you all! We will definitely be back! Doyle, thank you for all your humor and expert captaining, Maya for your fabulous cuisine and Caitlin for your creative cocktails! Until next time!

Thank you!

Shelby, Brock, Maci, Braden, Hannah and Blake

Maya & Doyle this has truly been the most amazing and relaxing experience of our lives. Everything from the food to the weather to the crystal clear waters did not disappoint. The food was always a delicious surprise. We loved trying new fresh vibrant flavors. Doyle going snorkeling with you and finding a rock to jump from was a highlight of Lee Bay, which we think was our favorite. We feel so blessed to have gotten to go on this unique experience and we will never forget how well you both took care of our group. Maya- recipes please! Especially the desserts!

All the best to you both-

Laura & Mike

Cowboy Doyle + Maya-

We are speechless- which is rare. You both made this week extra special and we are beyond grateful. We’ve been on this trip five times now and this trip was the best! Thank you, thank you for making this week incredible. We will cherish all of the super special moments. If you are ever on the East Coast or in Charlotte, please visit us.

Thank you! ❤️ Becca & Frank

Doyle & Maya

Thank you so much for an amazing week! You made celebrating our 20th anniversary and unforgettable experience. We saw beautiful coves, fish, water, etc. The food was such a treat, our pallets have never experienced such great cuisines! You made this trip our #1 vacation of all time and we will be back!

❤️ Kevin & Corry

Dear Maya & Doyle,

Thank you for the most incredible trip of our lives. You made us feel like part of your family for the most incredible week of our lives. We cannot thank you all enough. See you in Lauderdale and beyond!! Everything was purrrfect (MEOW).

Yeehaw! Brittany & Erick

A week with good friends is always a treat. Because it always includes a lot of laughter and recalling memories. Friends are truly one of God's gifts. However, when that week is part of a bucket list trip- well, those stories and laughs will be visited again and again. To say that the Nae Kae made that special would be an understatement. The Nae Kae is a beautiful, comfortable, well kept vessel. This is all because of Doyle and Maya! It is wonderful to be under their care. The food out of that tiny galley is truly amazing and the way they work as a team was part of what made the week so relaxed! Thank you to you both for taking such good care of us this week. And for graciously tolerating our laughter and jokes and drinking LOL! Wishing you the best in the future and you know we would be delighted, if you always compare us to your other guests.You know you love us!

Laura and David

Cpt Doyle & Maya -

Absolutely amazing week of adventure, food, laughs, sailing, sites, drinks, and meeting you both. We did it all in one short week and are forever grateful. The BVI are beautiful but you both are amazing people and truly made the trip! We hope to see you in Steamboat or Bend- you are always welcome!

Until then-

Brian

Doyle and Maya-

Wow! That doesn't begin to cover how this trip played out. From the moment we stepped on board you made us feel welcomed and comfortable.You have created a special space and truly brought us into your home. We Loved hearing your stories, getting to know you both, and experiencing the beauty of the BVI. The roses…Maya's food... appetizers on the bow, dinner up top (felt like celebrities), the snorkeling and other water fun, watching Doyle kite surf, getting a taste of both “touristy” at Willie T’s to experiencing the wild nature at the Bubbling Pools. I loved watching the sails unfurl, seeing the dolphins, eels and rays. The time spent with dear friends and making new ones in you both was priceless. Next time we will let Brian win the Euchre tournament.

Thank you both again for a magical week. You’re always welcome in Keystone, CO (or capital S capital T capital L, but that seems a lot less glamorous than life down in the BVI) any time. We'd love to share our slice of the world with you-As long as none expects meat like Maya's!!

A toast to you both with “mini-beers”

Casey and Brent :-)

Doyle & Maya - We are all so very grateful for the energy and heart that you poured into each ofus to make this such a memorable adventure. My rose and thorn intersected as it was truly amazing to have the trip go so fast and flawlessly with 10 people but flying by too fast for us... aspect of the journey felt relaxed, easy and therefore very enjoyable as we navigated the BVI islands and the fun each had to offer. It was a perfect combo of relaxation and doing! Obviously, we can't say enough about the food...every meal was incredible and Maya spoiled us and amazed us with her creativity in the kitchen. Seriously we’d buy the Maya-Nae Kae cookbook :)) And Doyle's stealthy dance around the boat was confidence inspiring and made us all feel safe and comfortable the entire time! We hope that Denver is on both of your travel schedules in the near future. We'd love to host you (although the food may not be as spectacular). Again, thank you both for welcoming us into your home, sharing your beautiful surroundings, navigating an unforgettable trip and rewarding us with your friendship!

Here's to more adventures to come!

* Special thanks for accommodating Purdue in the final four!

Thank you, Maya & Doyle, for such an amazing week & for welcoming us into your home. We appreciate so much the attention to detail, care, and love of the islands you shared with us. Our return after 30 years was far more than we could. ever imagine. We will treasure the times in beautiful coves, exploring and enjoying the water, the amazing sunsets, fantastic meals, but most of all the memories created on board with all of us, especially the two of you. Hopefully it won’t take us another 30 before our next visit.

Best to you both -

Tina

Wow... This experience has been amazing! I'm not sure we could pick a favorite... But the snorkeling is close! This trip was truly spectacular but with the great service and food... Indescribable...the food was truly 5 stars as were the drinks. Most of all, you made this a life memory for all of us that we undoubtedly will never forget.Thanks for that and for putting up with this crazy crew.

Ryan and Candy

Thoroughly enjoyed a week of sun and fun with friends and family. Memories to last a lifetime! The weather cooperated, a few showers here and there, but when you are sailing, what's a little more moisture in the air? The crew was very meticulous in the care of the boat plus the passengers. They were informed and always ready to lend a hand when needed. Sun, sand, snorkeling, stingrays and starfish. The S's is have it! Amazing week, amazing trip, amazing memories,

Billy and Claire

Doyle and Maya,

Dear Doyle and Maya,

Thank you so much for such a special experience, this has been the best trip of my life. It was so special to experience one of the most beautiful places in the whole world but getting to know both of you has been equally special. You are both truly such special souls, and what you create on this boat together can only be described as magic. My heart is so full leaving this week and I hope you know how once in a lifetime this experience was for all of us. I hope we can meet again soon and until then I am sending you all the mermaid magic! Thank you Maya, for your outstanding meals, which have truly ruined all other foods for me, and for all of your laughter and kindness. Thank you Doyle for your thoughtfulness and strength as a captain and for always making us laugh while keeping us safe.

Much love,

Lucie

P.S. we’re so sunburnt our cats won’t recognize us

Doyle and Maya,

How can we ever express on paper the extraordinary, larger than life week of perfection we experienced on Nae Kae with you‽ You crafted each day to be special and centered around our hopes for the most spectacular week we could imagine. Your thoughtfulness each day, each meal, each activity was evident. As ours was a 60’s cruise, with four of us having a birthday party, one each evening, you were able to create a special event every night. We laughed, we danced, snorkeled, dined, and explored with such joy. Thank you both for welcoming us into your home and showing us the beauty of the USVI’s and the BVI’s. We can never forget these happy memories.

Love, the Arnold and Baker Family

Captain Doyle and Chef Maya,

Words can’t express how grateful we are for the most amazing week. If you bottled joy that best describes how I felt and the energy on board. Thank you for helping us create new lifelong memories, you are a part of our family now! You two are world class and make such an amazing team. My mom turned 60 this year so it was really special to make her feel loved and spend this time all together. Please come visit us in Alabama anytime. We’d love to have you for a proper football game. Roll Tide!

PS-Chef Maya is wonderful!! Gourmet food!! Better than the restaurants!! Captain Doyle docks like no other!

Doyle and Maya, thank you for making our first BVI trip one to always remember! Loved the Supmarines, snorkeling, and we will never forget swimming to Soggy Dollar. Maya, you are an amazing chef! The food was top-notch! Painkillers were the best!

Janel and Jeff

Captain Doyle and Cheff Maya, what an amazing week our group had. None of us had sailed before, and you’ve ignited a passion in all of us to do this again. The food was amazing! We felt like we were dining at a Michelin star restaurant each night. Thank you, Maya! Doyle, thank you for the amazing itinerary and spots we stayed each night and your willingness to go off script when we had a request. All of our friends back home are very jealous and most likely future clients. Thanks again for the trip/experience of a lifetime.

Steven and Gretchen

Dude this was the most amazing trip ever thanks to both of you. We can not thank you enough for all your efforts. It really made this an epic experience for us. We've never been on a boat trip like this before & didn't know what to expect but this topped everything we could have thought of. You made the scenery perfect & are just the best from Paije's coloring, Rebecca's day drinking to Magic's irritation meals, snacks & random bursts of energy everything was perfect. We laughed & more than we have in a long time & truly treasure this time we had. Thank you for putting up with our pack of misfits. I hope our paths cross again & if you are ever in Seattle you are so welcome to stay with us!

❤️ Sam (Ritu-Tanmeet) & Deepika Nelak

Dear Doyle + Maya,

We can't thank you enough for creating such a magical week for our group. We knew from the moment we stepped onto the beautifully decorated boat that we were in for a treat and you not only did not disappoint but went above and beyond to help make every minute of the trip extra special. The beautiful scenery was surpassed only by the gourmet meals and kind gestures you told to make us feel welcome and cared for - from delicious jello shots for our dance party to ensuring we didn't step on sea urchins to everything in between. Thank you for being so amazing - we will be back for sure! ❤️

Sara & Bryce

Dear Doyle & Maya,

Our week couldn’t quite get the justice it deserves with just a few words here… It truly brought us so much joy, relaxation and laughter. Thank you for every element you provided to create this incredible retreat. The five star meals, the treatment you gave us and every detail was truly immaculate. Thank you big!! Can’t wait to do it again!

Beautiful boat, beautiful islands, but what made this experience member was our crew, Doyle and Maya! We were welcome from the moment we set foot on the boat, and not just the Champagne!!! Their instructions and guidelines were detailed, and made us feel comfortable, but also relaxed and safe, the food was amazing! And the experiences were incredible! Thank you both so much! I plan to be back again!

From the moment we set foot on the boat, the Nae Kae felt like home. I always say life is all about the people you cross paths with and getting to know Doyle and Maya over the last week has been truly a pleasure. Too many special moments to mention, maybe I will just say thank you for creating such a beautiful environment for the Norehad family (+) to create lifelong memories. Thanks for everything! Let’s get Nae Kae’d!

A perfect week on the Nae Kae! It was a full week of laughter, sun, snorkeling and incredible food. Maya and Doyle, you have officially become part of the Norehad clan. You both made the boat feel like home from the start and we are incredibly sad to leave. A few highlights of the week…

– Maya’s amazing ability to cook gluten free

-New Year’s Eve, dancing and 360 photo booth

– buzzing around Anegada on mopeds.

– the painkillers!!!

– Doyle’s New Year’s eve, solo-spectacular, ukulele performance

– spending lots of quality time together.

We will definitely be back and send many friends to the Nae Kae.

What an incredible trip thank you Doyle and Maya for making this such an unforgettable experience, and for all the laughs and fun along the way. Formal apologies for Sean breaking the bathroom door, hipper, and for losing the rubber yeti bottom. Cheers to 2024, I hope you both have a wonderful year .

Maya and Doyle,

Thank you for the most memorable 40th birthday a girl could ask for. Unequivocally, the trip of a lifetime. I don’t think there was ever a moment on our trip where we weren’t laughing or smiling.

The sensational food, incredible itinerary, and the access to everything on board really made the trip extra special. But most importantly, your warm and welcoming personalities. We felt like family immediately.

Thanks for the memories!

Amazing captain Doyle and Maya, the “unflappable one”…

This has been about the most incredible week of my life!!! If I had a bucket list, this would have been on it for sure!! Spending a week with my children has been so satisfying to my heart! I am so enjoyed getting to know Maya and Doyle!! Such lovely, kind and caring people!!! The Lord bless you, and keep you, the Lord make his face shine upon you and give you peace.

Love,

Donna

Dear Maya and Doyle,

Thank you for an amazing experience aboard the Nae Kae. You both made the experience unforgettable with all the little extras along with the amazing food and beach time.
