September, 2024 - YGo, CorsicaYGO - Sunreef 60' - Corsica and Sardinia
The yacht: The yacht exceeded our expectations. It was modern and very well-functioning. We were spoilt as we had the main cabin but I believe all others were happy with their cabins.
The crew: The crew were fantastic. Pepe , Nova and Braam went out of their way for all our requirements. Pepe was a great chef and Nova learnt very quickly there were 30 different types of coffee an Australian can order.The destination: It was hard to comment on all the destinations as we had to modify due to the weather conditions. When the weather was good they took us to great places and bays. We probably didn’t see Porto Cervo in its best light so the jury is out on that but the other places were great.
Luxury Charter Group: Rebecca, you have been a great help and have responded to any of our requests in a professional and friendly manner. In summary it was a great trip slightly affected by the weather but we still had a memorable experience.

August, 2024 - Beluga, AustraliaThe trip, the crew and the boat were amazing! We cannot say enough. Captain Matt and everyone on the crew could not have been nicer and taken better care of us. They were outstanding!
Chef Matt was excellent too. He was very accommodating in both time and food for all my kids – who have very diverse diets. Acacia and Rick were great with the diving! They were fired up to go anytime we wanted.
Rick was also great with my son Bobby who it took a lot of patience to get him to dive. Marlin was great too. He helped with everything.
Captain Matt and Marlin even took my kids fishing at 10:30 one night after they were up until 4:00 am moving us to a new location the night before. Shea and Willow were also very accommodating with every request. We cannot compliment everyone on the crew enough.

August, 2024 - Son de Mar, CroatiaYacht Experience: Unbelievably great experience. The charm and character of the Son De Mar was something else. This combined with incredible comfort of full length resting places all over the yacht just added to our enjoyment. Being a bit of a Piscerian water baby there was swimming, snorkeling, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, seabob, jetski and water skiing available. Even our request for cigars and back gammon board were met.
Crew Service: Not enough good things can be said about the crew. Captain, chef, deckhands and stewardesses were all most welcoming and accommodating. Nothing was ever too much trouble and all done with a smile and a pleasant nature. The crew truly added another layer of enjoyment to our Son De Mar experience. We overindulged ourselves on the wonderful dining fare and were served French Martinis as we sunbaked on the floating jetty.
Itinerary and Destinations: We were given full say on where we went round the Croatian Islands but who cared. Every place we stopped and visited was a winner thanks to the captain’s experience.
Luxury Charter Group Customer Service: Rebecca gave us an absolute armchair ride in organising our cruise. Always was pleasant, friendly and most helpful with all aspects even when we called her at dinner time.

August, 2024 - Falco, CroatiaBooking our recent charter on the FALCO in Croatia through Luxury Charter Group was an absolute pleasure, thanks to the exceptional service provided by Rebecca. From the moment we started planning our trip, she was incredibly responsive, attentive, and dedicated to ensuring every detail was taken care of. When we needed to make last-minute changes and adjustments to our travel logistics, Rebecca handled everything seamlessly. Her attention to detail and willingness to go the extra mile gave us complete peace of mind leading up to and during our holiday.
Once we were aboard the FALCO, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. The yacht itself was beautiful, comfortable, and impeccably maintained. The crew, led by Captain Dare and Marin, provided unparalleled hospitality and expertise that made every moment of our journey truly memorable.
As we explored Croatia's stunning coastline and islands, the FALCO crew ensured we were able to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the destination. Their passion for sharing this incredible country with us was inspiring.
We can't thank Rebecca and the entire Luxury Charter Group team enough for helping create such a wonderful experience. We highly recommend the FALCO and Luxury Charter Group to anyone seeking an exceptional yachting vacation. Thanks once again for your support and we will keep you in mind when we plan our next adventure!

August, 2024 - Lady Gita, CroatiaDear Rebecca,
What a a fantastic trip we had in Croatia on the beautiful LADY GITA! We want to thank you personally for helping us organise this trip of a lifetime and for always being available to answer our questions at any time of the day. We really appreciated your knowledge and experience and loved all your recommendations.
LADY GITA exceeded our expectations, not only is the boat just gorgeous but the crew and Captain Toni were phenomenal. We can not fault anything about this boat or the itinerary. Captain Toni always found the most beautiful places to moor and often we felt like we were the only people on the water. The chef was fantastic, he planned all the meals around our preferences and they were always delicious.
The rest of the crew were also amazing, they were very attentive and were one step ahead of us asking for anything. The water toys were a big hit with our family and guests, the jet skis, seabots and stand up paddles were the most popular and our boys loved learning to ride the flightboard. We also had a couple of keen golfers on our trip and they loved hitting golf balls off the back of the boat. Such a huge treat to have spent a week on LADY GITA, we will treasure these memories forever and we definitely will be booking another trip on this boat again.
Thank you again Rebecca.
We look forward to working with you again when we plan our next holiday.
July, 2024 - NAVYA, GreeceHi Rebecca,
We loved it the week away on NAVYA. We have said a million times we wish we were still on it. The comedown is not fun! Thanks for everything Rebecca.
Yacht Experience
NAVYA is a beautiful yacht. Being so new, everything was modern and beautifully fit out. It was meticulously clean, bed linen and towels were a lovely quality and it was surprisingly spacious. There were many areas to sit and relax, enjoy the sun and as a family of five we all felt we were not crowded in on one another and had space. The air conditioning was a gift! The boat was equipped with everything you could need – water scooters, paddle boards, snorkels, goggles, flippers and of course the donut. Captain Tasos took the kids out several times on it and they loved it. We had never sailed in a yacht before or a spent night on one. We all absolutely the loved the experience and felt it was a magic way to celebrate Mat’s 50th. It enabled us to see many islands in a short time and many sights only accessible by boat which we hadn’t realised. A large cruise ship didn’t appeal to us. We would definitely book another charter on NAVYA.Crew Service
Tasos and Savvina were exceptional. We loved spending time with them and getting to know them and were so upset having to say goodbye. Tasos is calm, kind and insightful. He spent time showing one of our sons how to fillet a tuna he caught and nothing was ever too much trouble. He sorted a laundry run and also a venue for us to watch the Euro soccer final! He came to pick us up at 11.30pm which was late. We really appreciated it. He was very knowledgeable and shared our love of peaceful and quiet spots to anchor, rather than mooring in marinas. He knew all the best spots to go. Our middle son wanted to go cliff jumping, and of course Tasos had the perfect spot!Savvina was also wonderful. Producing amazing meals from a small but well-equipped kitchen, Savvina had us all rushing to the table for every meal. The food was so good, we only ate two meals in the whole week ashore and we all agreed those meals weren’t as good as Savvina’s. Savvina is quiet and gentle and we all loved her. She went to great lengths to cook food we all wanted to eat. Mat’s birthday dinner was next level and she had even procured a beautifully decorated (and tasting!) 50th cake. We asked for delicious Greek food and we got it. She heard me say one morning that I loved cheesecake – and she made one for dinner that night. I loved it when she wanted to take a picture of a particularly fabulous meal so she could show her mum. The food was an absolute highlight and we can’t thank her enough. Everything was fresh and delicious. We also loved raiding the treat basket!!!!
Tasos and Savvina went to great lengths to ensure our holiday was memorable and special. We couldn’t have asked for better crew -especially as it was the first time we had tried this type of holiday. It was a wonderful break (for me especially) from domestic jobs. We can’t thank them enough.
Itinerary and Destinations
The Ionian islands was the perfect choice for us, and we thank Rebecca from LCG for the recommendation. The water was calm, there was no wind and my fear of seasickness was not realised. The islands are fairly close together which was great as it meant fairly short sails inbetween. We saw so many – Lefkada, Kefalonia, Paxos, Antipaxos, Atokos, Meganisi and Corfu. We were taken to places of jaw-dropping beauty, seeing high white cliffs, beautiful blue water, cave grottos and beaches. We enjoyed going ashore to look at shops, have a meal or an ice cream. We went for a fabulous walk in Fiskardo and loved seeing the ruins there. It was everything we wanted in a Greek holiday.Luxury Charter Group Customer Service
Rebecca Montgomery from Luxury Charter Group was amazing. Extremely efficient and knowledgeable, Rebecca was one of the best holiday service providers I have encountered in all our years of travels. Taking on board our wishlist of amazing Greek food and sights and enjoying a unique family holiday experience to celebrate the 50th birthday, (blended with slight fears around seasickness and not having done anything like this before) Rebecca was a fabulous support. Rebecca responded to all queries within minutes (no matter the time of day) and made us all feel so excited about the trip and that it was the right holiday to choose. Rebecca’s customer service was outstanding. I feel so fortunate to have been given a recommendation for LCG from a friend. We will most definitely be booking again. Rebecca did warn me once we had completed one sailing holiday we would be booking every year!! I think that might be the case. Many thanks to you Rebecca!~JM
July, 2024 - Shangra, SardiniaThank you, Rebecca, for organizing the best 10 days for us on SHANGRA. We had the most amazing time.
The crew was faultless and so friendly. We loved every minute of it. The itinerary was also perfect - a great mix of swimming spots and ports. The spots we went to were incredibly beautiful. Crystal clear water. Picturesque bays. We’re all feeling a little deflated today having to leave. I will be recommending you to friends in the future, for sure.
You made everything very easy. Thank you.

July, 2024 - Gulet Aurum, CroatiaHi Rebecca,
This was an extraordinary experience for all of us. The crew were essential perfect, and I wrote to Captain Ante that I was searching for a word that was more perfect than perfection, but could not find one.
This was a truly memorable, and absolutely lovely journey, and we are so grateful to you for the impeccable service you provided. I cannot even imagine a lovelier experience than spending a week with this incredible crew.
You did an absolutely amazing job.

June, 2024 - Amada Mia, CroatiaHi Rebecca
What a wonderful week we had on AMADA MIA. From the very first enquiry with Rebecca (and being our first cruising experience, we had many questions which she answered quickly and accurately) until our farewell with the crew in Split, everything was seamless.
We had 3 couples on the yacht which to my mind was the perfect number. We were never crowded and always able to find a quiet space. A fourth couple would fit with ease, but I enjoyed having the extra space. The yacht itself is lovely, spacious and well finished with all the mod cons you could hope for. We didn’t want for anything.
The crew were amazing, skipper Dom and his lovely wife Sabina took care of us exceptionally well and their chef Mario was superb. The volume and quality of food was well beyond our expectations. Every mouthful we were served was a taste sensation and we were continually wowed, literally from breakfast to dinner each and every day. We specifically requested light lunches and if that was light, I’d hate to see heavy.
We opted for a very light cruising schedule, wanting instead to spend quality relaxing time in an anchorage, and Don’s knowledge of the area and weather made this simple. Each morning we had a discussion and Dom and the crew were really flexible, doing exactly what we wanted, when we wanted it, so we got exactly what we wanted all the time.
We wouldn’t hesitate to book with Luxury Charter Group again.
Regards

September, 2023 - Lucky Clover, GreeceHello Rebecca,
This was our second trip on LUCKY CLOVER. Captain Jordan, Madrona and Giannis did everything to make our holiday as enjoyable as possible. The yacht was well maintained, Our rooms serviced every day. Madrona was very attentive to all our needs
Captain Jordan took us to beautiful swimming spots and lovely Greek villages. Giannis’ meals were sensational. Giannis was very patient with us as a few of the ladies were real foodies and he gave us lessons on how to prepare his special lamb dishes, he also guided us to the fish markets on Aegina where we bought sardines and he prepared them that afternoon for aperitivo. Everything was catered for. The transfers to and from the boat were on time.
We will definitely be back!!!
