5.00Our group had such a fun and memorable time sailing around Bonaire with James and Julia! We felt like we were just part of the family as James and Julia were so hospitable. First off, the boat is amazing and perfect for our group of 8 couples. Julia was such a fantastic guide snorkeling with us in some special spots around the island. We saw turtles and so so many fish. It exceeded all of our expectations! Finally, the snacks and dinner that James made for us was amazing and delicious. This truly was such a highlight of our time in Bonaire, and we’d recommend it to anyone visiting the island! Just book it and have the best time!
The highlight of Bonaire!

5.00An amazing trip! Captain Bri, Stephanie and Leo were fantastic! Stephanie was super attentive to our needs. The guava colada was wonderful! The captain included the boys and was extremely friendly and polite. Leo prepared AMAZING appetizers and dinner. We couldn’t have asked for a better crew to make our sunset cruise so memorable. Highly recommend!
Wow what an experience!

5.00Oh my goodness what a treat to do a Sunset Cruise with Captain James, Julia and our dear friends. The SV Lost Cat is an amazing craft and superbly equipped for a very special experience. The food, drinks and company was exceptional and we can’t recommend this experience highly enough. We also sat on the swings off the back of Lost Cat soaking in the Caribbean. An everlasting memory, thanks so much😘
Fabulous 50 sailing exceeded expectations!

5.00Our fabulous 50 birthday celebration on the private sailboat was phenomenal! The service was perfectly executed and the drinks plentiful. We were able to celebrate with a delicious birthday cake after dinner! The owners even decorated the boat for us! Perfection from beginning to end! Memories to last a lifetime!! We will definitely do it again when we’re back in Bonaire!
Special experience, special team, unique memories - Go!

5.00Our family of five join Captain James and team for an early April sunset cruise and dinner, and it is hard to describe how happy we are with the experience and its impact on us all. Their warm hospitality was equaled by the excellent fresh food and fresh drinks served with a genuine vibe that showed through for us. From teenage daughters to aspiring captain 10-year old boy to my wife and I, we all were able to slow down, take in the beauty, and really appreciate life and eachother a bit more despite frenetic schedules back home. This was easily the premier highlight of a trip to Bonaire that had many and will be a memory and experience that will stick with us. We will be back again, but I recommend everyone considering an experience like this to look no further. Enjoy and thanks again James, Julia and team! See you soon, The Wests
A perfect evening

5.00Julia and James and Kirbys were delightful hosts. Our family did a sunset cruise and had the most relaxing time. Our favorite music was playing and the food was amazing. My 13 year old son said it was the best meal we had all week (and we had eaten at all of the top restaurants on the island). The dessert was one of our all time favorites! My son who had gone scuba diving all day was sure he was not going to snorkel. But sure enough he saw the special spot (James' favorite sunset spot) and he had to jump in the water. Luckily Julia had extra gear for him. They had everything we could have ever wanted. It was the highlight of our trip. We will certainly do this again when we return. There are several options to chose from when searching private tours, but Julia was the friendliest with all of her communications and felt so personable.

5.00First and foremost, James and Julia, thank you so much for sharing your home with us. It was an amazing evening and an absolute highlight for our visitors. We enjoyed a sunset dinner cruise for 4 just over a week ago. Every single part of the cruise was outstanding. We are long time Bonaire visitors and have enjoyed other on-water experiences, but this one outdid all the others. If you are reading this and trying to decide where to book, your search is over. Just leave some room on their calendar for our future trips!!
