"Our skipper was great, super helpful and friendly. Professional and experienced beyond his years! Felt incredibly safe the entire time and had some great conversations.10/10 couldn’t fault him!"
Tapas experience
My family just finished a wonderful week sailing with our Captain and Chef Mary Campbell.The experience was 5 stars. The boat was clean, comfortable and as described. The itinerary was well crafted with snorkeling, beach time, fun spots (hello Soggy Dollar, Tipsys, Willy T’s).
What made it unique was the crew. They took exceptional care of us from before the trip started until we parted ways. A taxi was waiting for us when we landed, welcome snacks when we arrived to the boat.
A highlight was the beautiful healthy delicious food prepared by MC. We felt like we were in a food vlog. Every meal better than the one before and accommodated a food allergy and restriction. Fresh fish, fruit, deserts, international flavors from Brazil to Morocco, it was amazing.
Capt kept us safe and engaged. Putting us on great snorkeling spots, taking our kids inner tubing behind the dingy, making drinks, great conversations.
This crew is special.
We are already dreaming of coming back.
2025
An exceptional experience from start to finish.
While the boat Tapas was as expected, the crew exceeded all expectations of our charter.Our extended family—parents, our four adult sons, and two daughters-in-law, recently spent an unforgettable week aboard the yacht Tapas with Captain Matija Pavlović and MC, and the experience exceeded every expectation we had.
From the moment we stepped on board, Matija created a welcoming environment that made all eight of us feel instantly at home. Managing a group of varied ages and personalities isn’t always easy, but Matija balanced everyone’s interests with incredible ease, making each of us feel cared for and completely included.
His knowledge of the British Virgin Islands is outstanding. Every day brought a new highlight secluded beach, a spectacular snorkeling spot, or a perfectly timed sail between islands—each chosen with our family dynamics in mind. He orchestrated the itinerary so seamlessly that it felt like the islands were unfolding just for us.
Matija’s professionalism and mastery of seamanship were evident in everything he did. His calm, confident demeanor made us feel safe at all times, even in challenging winds or busy anchorages. Yet he pairs that competence with genuine warmth, humor, and a positive spirit that made even simple moments onboard feel special.
Whether he was helping the adventurous members of our family find the best places to explore, or giving space to those who wanted to relax and soak in the scenery, Matija always seemed to know exactly what each person needed. His ability to connect with everyone—parents, sons, and daughters-in-law alike—made the trip feel personal and perfectly tailored.
Our week with Captain Matija was truly one of the finest family vacations we’ve ever taken. If you’re considering a yacht charter in the British Virgin Islands, you couldn’t choose a better captain. He transforms a beautiful sailing trip into an extraordinary family memory.
An exceptional experience from start to finish.
These two crew helped us have a great experience in every way.
In addition to the captain, another of the highlights of our trip was the incredible talent, warmth, and artistry of Chef Mary “MC” Campbell.From the very first meal to the last, MC delivered a dining experience worthy of a top-tier resort, yet with the comfort, creativity, and personal touch that only a gifted private chef can provide. Every dish she prepared was beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and crafted with thoughtfulness and care. Whether it was a fresh, bright breakfast, a vibrant island-inspired lunch, or a showstopping dinner, MC turned each meal into an event we looked forward to.
One of the standout moments of the entire week was her extraordinary jerk turkey Thanksgiving feast. Preparing something so special in a yacht galley is no small feat, yet MC delivered a holiday meal that was both festive and unforgettable, flavorful, tender, and infused with her signature creativity. It made celebrating Thanksgiving in the islands feel magical.
MC’s collaboration with Captain Matija was another huge part of what made the trip feel effortless. The two work together with seamless coordination and genuine respect, creating an atmosphere on board that is relaxed, joyful, and incredibly well-orchestrated. Their synergy ensured that meals were timed perfectly with sailing plans, activities, and family energy, helping each day unfold smoothly and beautifully.
Beyond her culinary skill, MC is simply wonderful to be around, warm, thoughtful, upbeat, and always attentive without ever being intrusive. She connected effortlessly with each member of our family, and her ability to accommodate different tastes and preferences made everyone feel cared for.
Chef Mary Campbell is a true gem, an exceptional chef, a gracious host, and an essential part of what made our week on Tapas, one of the best family vacations we’ve ever had. Anyone fortunate enough to sail with her will remember the meals, the creativity, and the warmth long after the trip ends.
These two crew helped us have a great experience in every way. I highly recommend Matija and MC.
10/10 skipper
Matija’s personality and Croatian background makes him a perfect skipper. He was very familiar with restaurants and clubs along the route and helped us plan our stops. He is also very easy going and fun to be around. He made our whole crew feel comfortable. He can also be very professional when called upon. My wife sprained her ankle, and he coordinated a trip to an ER on the island that night. When the ER said they couldn’t help much where he then coordinated for us to get an Xray someplace else. Furthermore, he ensured we were back by the afternoon so we could meet back up with the rest of the crew. 10/10 skipper and we look forward to working with him in the future.

"Our skipper was great, super helpful and friendly. Professional and experienced beyond his years! Felt incredibly safe the entire time and had some great conversations.10/10 couldn’t fault him!"
Tapas experience
My family just finished a wonderful week sailing with our Captain and Chef Mary Campbell.The experience was 5 stars. The boat was clean, comfortable and as described. The itinerary was well crafted with snorkeling, beach time, fun spots (hello Soggy Dollar, Tipsys, Willy T’s).
What made it unique was the crew. They took exceptional care of us from before the trip started until we parted ways. A taxi was waiting for us when we landed, welcome snacks when we arrived to the boat.
A highlight was the beautiful healthy delicious food prepared by MC. We felt like we were in a food vlog. Every meal better than the one before and accommodated a food allergy and restriction. Fresh fish, fruit, deserts, international flavors from Brazil to Morocco, it was amazing.
Capt kept us safe and engaged. Putting us on great snorkeling spots, taking our kids inner tubing behind the dingy, making drinks, great conversations.
This crew is special.
We are already dreaming of coming back.

An exceptional experience from start to finish.
While the boat Tapas was as expected, the crew exceeded all expectations of our charter.Our extended family—parents, our four adult sons, and two daughters-in-law, recently spent an unforgettable week aboard the yacht Tapas with Captain Matija Pavlović and MC, and the experience exceeded every expectation we had.
From the moment we stepped on board, Matija created a welcoming environment that made all eight of us feel instantly at home. Managing a group of varied ages and personalities isn’t always easy, but Matija balanced everyone’s interests with incredible ease, making each of us feel cared for and completely included.
His knowledge of the British Virgin Islands is outstanding. Every day brought a new highlight secluded beach, a spectacular snorkeling spot, or a perfectly timed sail between islands—each chosen with our family dynamics in mind. He orchestrated the itinerary so seamlessly that it felt like the islands were unfolding just for us.
Matija’s professionalism and mastery of seamanship were evident in everything he did. His calm, confident demeanor made us feel safe at all times, even in challenging winds or busy anchorages. Yet he pairs that competence with genuine warmth, humor, and a positive spirit that made even simple moments onboard feel special.
Whether he was helping the adventurous members of our family find the best places to explore, or giving space to those who wanted to relax and soak in the scenery, Matija always seemed to know exactly what each person needed. His ability to connect with everyone—parents, sons, and daughters-in-law alike—made the trip feel personal and perfectly tailored.
Our week with Captain Matija was truly one of the finest family vacations we’ve ever taken. If you’re considering a yacht charter in the British Virgin Islands, you couldn’t choose a better captain. He transforms a beautiful sailing trip into an extraordinary family memory.
An exceptional experience from start to finish.
These two crew helped us have a great experience in every way.
In addition to the captain, another of the highlights of our trip was the incredible talent, warmth, and artistry of Chef Mary “MC” Campbell.From the very first meal to the last, MC delivered a dining experience worthy of a top-tier resort, yet with the comfort, creativity, and personal touch that only a gifted private chef can provide. Every dish she prepared was beautifully presented, perfectly balanced, and crafted with thoughtfulness and care. Whether it was a fresh, bright breakfast, a vibrant island-inspired lunch, or a showstopping dinner, MC turned each meal into an event we looked forward to.
One of the standout moments of the entire week was her extraordinary jerk turkey Thanksgiving feast. Preparing something so special in a yacht galley is no small feat, yet MC delivered a holiday meal that was both festive and unforgettable, flavorful, tender, and infused with her signature creativity. It made celebrating Thanksgiving in the islands feel magical.
MC’s collaboration with Captain Matija was another huge part of what made the trip feel effortless. The two work together with seamless coordination and genuine respect, creating an atmosphere on board that is relaxed, joyful, and incredibly well-orchestrated. Their synergy ensured that meals were timed perfectly with sailing plans, activities, and family energy, helping each day unfold smoothly and beautifully.
Beyond her culinary skill, MC is simply wonderful to be around, warm, thoughtful, upbeat, and always attentive without ever being intrusive. She connected effortlessly with each member of our family, and her ability to accommodate different tastes and preferences made everyone feel cared for.
Chef Mary Campbell is a true gem, an exceptional chef, a gracious host, and an essential part of what made our week on Tapas, one of the best family vacations we’ve ever had. Anyone fortunate enough to sail with her will remember the meals, the creativity, and the warmth long after the trip ends.
These two crew helped us have a great experience in every way. I highly recommend Matija and MC.
10/10 skipper
Matija’s personality and Croatian background makes him a perfect skipper. He was very familiar with restaurants and clubs along the route and helped us plan our stops. He is also very easy going and fun to be around. He made our whole crew feel comfortable. He can also be very professional when called upon. My wife sprained her ankle, and he coordinated a trip to an ER on the island that night. When the ER said they couldn’t help much where he then coordinated for us to get an Xray someplace else. Furthermore, he ensured we were back by the afternoon so we could meet back up with the rest of the crew. 10/10 skipper and we look forward to working with him in the future.
