WLMS Yacht Charters

One of our best vacations ever! This was exactly the relaxing trip we needed. Max and Whitey, our incredible crew, were an essential part of that. So experienced, knowledgeable and talented, they were wonderful company and peerless hosts. If you are ever lucky enough to book a cruise on the Nutmeg with them, dont miss your chance. We all still miss Maxs delicious meals and Whiteys jokes! Planning and then taking this trip in the midst of the Omicron wave of the pandemic was confusing and nerve wracking! If not for Mandy Walker, our cruise broker, Max, and Whitey, it never would have happened. They kept us up to date on changing restrictions and offered sound advice on how to navigate testing requirements. We had never done a private cruise before and lucked out in finding Mandy. She worked hard to understand us and our needs and then recommended a crew and boat that were a perfect fit for us. I talked with a number of yacht brokers before working with Mandy and none were as thorough and professional as she. The BVI certainly delivered for us with perfect weather and amazing sunsets. But Mandy, Max and Whitey made this a trip we will never forget.

Our experience working with Mandy was absolute perfection. Our charter was originally scheduled to set sail in March of 2020 but was suddenly cancelled due to Covid. During that crazy time of uncertainty, Mandy kept in very close contact with us regarding the future of our charter and was able to get us re-scheduled for 2021 on an incredible boat with a top notch crew. From the very first phone call to the day of the charter 18 months later, every question we had was answered quickly. We felt like she had a genuine interest in helping to make our vacation one to remember, which it most definitely was.

Working with Mandy at WLMS Charters is perfection. My journey with her started 4 years ago. I had been looking at houses to rent after going on a cruise to Tortola and while searching some boats came up. Sailing peaked my interest because I had done a sailing trip when I was younger. Behind the inquiry was Mandy. Just in email I knew she was the right person to pick the right boat and crew for a trip with my then 4 year old and almost 10 year old. We picked a crew and boat and then the hurricanes hit. She stood by replying to emails instantly and assuring us we could either delay our trip or be refunded. I later found out she was going through something personal and I would have never known because of her professionalism through it all. We decided to delay after shuffling boats and a new crew and charter 1 happened. Then charter 2 and just 3 days off the boat from charter 3. The most recent charter we had another family so a larger boat and new crew were in order and she once again guided us to perfection. She truly listens and knows the industry very well. I would charter a boat without knowing anything about it with her recommendation anyday. I can not say enough how easy Mandy is to work with and how thorough she is . 3 years and 3 charters later with Mandy guiding us. Time for charter 4!

WLMS Charters was great for planning our first yacht trip in The Virgin Islands. Mandy was very quick to respond to all my questions and requests. She stayed on top of our bid for The Karma and was just as thrilled as I was when we won the challenge. She communicated all of our needs to the crew, including our desire to have our kids get Scuba certified. This was the best vacation ever!

It was the first time I've ever planned a vacation on a boat and I had no idea where to begin and how everything worked. I found Mandy searching online and she was the one with the best customer service, and helped me all the way from choosing the right sailing boat for my family until arriving on the island to our accommodation, transfer from and to the airport and recommendations for places to eat and visit while on the island. Mandy was very interested in understanding what we were looking for, what we liked and dislikes and our expectations for this vacation to help us find the boat that would fit us best. She was very attentive to details and what made her help unique was that she gave her personal review/opinion of the boat that would match to our needs. The boat we chose was LUNA and the owners Nim and Fabiola are amazing hosts!!! In addition to helping with the boat, Mandy went beyond and gave us many options of hotels and accommodations for the night we would sleep on the island, including her place that she had just started renting for her charters guests. We decided to stay at her place and everything was perfect, she made us feel very welcomed during our stay. Thank you Mandy and Jason for taking such good care of our family from the very first day until we landed safe back home! Gustavo & Familia Dechichi
