November 2024 BVI Charter

Dear Cait and Jake. What an amazing week you planned for our family in the BVI’s! I can’t begin to explain how much fun and how special this time was for our family this week. The snorkeling spots, family dinners, trips to Willy T’s couldn’t have been better if we tried. The boys loved seeing puffer fish, sharks, tarpon (especially James lol) Cait every meal the children would try and guess what you were preparing and every one was surprising and beyond delicious…”Cait‘s plates” is a fan favorite…the girls think they are your marketing team now lol! The two of you are such a fantastic team! The company is so lucky to have you! We will hunt y’all down the next time we come to the BVI’s and would love to host you in South Carolina whenever you’re free. Thanks for being our crew and more importantly, becoming our friends. All our love, Stephanie, Doug, Hayes, Anna, Grant, and James

Jake and Cait - Thank you both so much for an amazing week! Its so difficult to find enough adjectives to describe all the beautiful things we saw and all the wonderful activities we did.

May 2025 BVI Charter

Jake and Caitlin made us feel like all our wishes came true. We were always at a perfectly fascinating spot at the right time. Our days were amazingly planned out, they felt long and satisfying. We did so much and yet feel like it was a super relaxing vacation. Every day was a surprise. Jake is a great captain and knows the BVIs really well, we always felt safe. Caitlin's cuisine was so wonderful, every meal was prepared with meticulous care, the flavors were amazing, the presentation spectacular. On top of that they were well balanced nutritionally. They were served without asking, at the perfect time between activities. While providing a wonderful service, it felt like they were invisible angels taking care of us. We felt like we were at home and not guests on Adagio. We pretty much surrendered all our decisions to their team, which made it the ultimate relaxation experience. We now know that it is the crew that makes the trip. Thank you!
