    Italo and Mariann were truly the best hosts we could’ve asked for. From start to finish, our charter was an unforgettable experience. They were incredibly responsive and patient with all my (many!) questions, and went above and beyond to accommodate every detail for my birthday celebration. The entire crew was kind, professional, and so much fun to be around—they really created such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The boat itself was stunning, the views were breathtaking, and everything from booking to boarding was seamless and transparent. I especially loved the bartending option, which added such a fun and elevated touch to the evening. We’ll definitely be back—it was a magical night on the water that we’ll all be talking about for a long time.

    We had a great time with Italo & Mariann. They made us feel special through every step of our journey, including sending us great photos they had taken during key moments of our voyage. Their communication and hospitality was top notch, from the earliest planning stages right up to the day itself, helping me craft the perfect experience for myself and my girlfriend (who I proposed to on the trip and is now my fiance!). We can’t wait to book with them during future trips over the years to come.

    Italo and Mariann were the perfect host. We were scared about the weather but Italo informed they use NOAA for the weather and we didn’t have anything to worry about. He was right it was a beautiful evening. It was a beautiful day on a beautiful yacht. Would recommend anyone to use Italo and Mariann yacht. The captain was even great and entertaining also extremely helpful.

    Italo and Mariann were incredible hosts! Prior to departure, they were very responsive and communicative when I had questions. They easily accommodated my request for certain gluten free mixers due to one of the guests having a celiac allergy. We had a phenomenal night sailing on the Hudson while taking in the Statue of Liberty and NYC skyline. The boat has a great party space with a fire table on the top deck and nice lounge area downstairs. Mariann and Italo were very attentive throughout the night to make sure we had everything we needed. I would absolutely book again!
