Everyone at the Athens base made the process as easy as possible. We were given a clean and prepared boat, the staff was fantastic and the experience reaffirmed my commitment to charter with the Moorings again!
We were very pleased with the seamless transition from the airport pick up to the dock at Corfu to meeting our Captain and the experience and itinerary he created for us. It was a wonderful holiday. I would recommend it highly to others.
Agana was a magical experience! We loved everything about this trip – the culture, the food, the people we encountered and the beautiful water and towns along the way. This was out first chartered trip where we did a mixture of moorings in bays and in the towns and it was lovely. I highly recommend this destination for a mix of relaxation and culture all in one.
Beautiful sailing area, great staff checking in and out of the boat. The boat itself was well equipped, great condition, and everything worked.
High quality boats, great service and great value. The Moorings has always stood behind every charter.
Moorings staff was professional and supportive from the moment we entered into contract to sail in Sardinia until our trip was over. Lorenzo our captain was exceptional making us feel safe, comfortable aboard, and guided us to many sensational destinations.
From the minute we met our crew our stay was fantastic. communication and options for our daily plan were great, of course the skipper Knows the best places to visit and he adjusted based on our preferences – we were spoiled from beginning to end and the boat itself was in great condition.
