Thank you so much for caring for us during our charter in the British Virgin Islands. ARAOK took us to many beautiful places, and on our journey, we made many discoveries. Stingrays, tarpon, squid, and of course some delicious lobster. We loved the beaches in Anegada and the many safe harbours we anchored for the night. Thank you especially for the special service you gave to us and our young children. I can only begin to wonder how they have absorbed all of the sights, sounds and tastes they have had the privilege to enjoy. Every need our ours was anticipated and delivered expertly ad swiftly. It has to be said that “chef” excelled himself. Together with Mimi, serving exquisite food to everyone’s delight. Vive ARAOK!

Thank you for making our first sailing trip so special, and safe, and allowing us to see places that we would have never seen without you. The meals were exceptional and creative. Damien went above and beyond in taking care of our family, planning activities and always being available. Thank you for caring for us wholeheartedly.
Thank you for an amazing, memorable trip that we will remember for life. Your courtesy, dedication, and full commitment made the experience outstanding. The sailing was very professional and comfortable. The food selection, presentation, and taste, were outstanding and better than 5-star restaurants. In addition, the attention to detail was noted and appreciated. Wishing you all the best, hopefully we will see you again.
