It was our family Christmas Trip. Our family of five had the most wonderful time aboard Calypso. The boat is beautiful, spacious & well stocked. However, what truly made the trip so amazing was Captain Bob! He was super knowledgeable and capable. He’s very attentive and interacted with our family beautifully. Also the icing on the cake was our chef Rigo! He made sure we had 3 meals a day and tea time. It was truly everything and more! 10/10

awesom vacation

This catamaran with Captain Robert is the most memorable family adventure vacation we have ever experienced. My husband and I quickly understood that Captain Robert is an experienced skilled boat captain and as a result, we were able to totally relax with our kids and take in all the water adventures! The boat is very comfortable and fully equipped for any water activities we wanted to pursue. Also,Robert made sure he understood what we wanted to focus on and then calculated the itinerary and adjusted based on the weather conditions,to maximize the fun! He knows all the best kept secret spots and how to navigate the pristine waters and culture. The boat was fully stocked with food and beverage provisions, and we were spoiled with a wide variety of meals that were always delicius. We enjoyed every moment on this vacation and will cherish these priceless memories for a lifetime. Thank you, Captain Robert. We are looking forward to more adventures with you!

Great family vacation

Captain Robert was absolutely amazing !!! He is a wonderful cook, we hadsteak, shrimp, and there was always an amazing spread of fruit to snackon!!! we were absolutely spoiled. Also, Captain let our son who is 11 helphim with the anchor, with the tender/dingy and the captain showed him allthe cool things about driving and running a big boat like this and my sonabsolutely loved it. Captain Robert took us to the coolest islands, divespots, snorkel spots and the coolest local bars/restaurants the islandshad to offer it was an experience of a lifetime. I also want to say, my 11year old had a major asthma attach while on board. Captain Robertliterally stayed up all night, helping me get my son to breath properly heis very knowledgeable and super helpful i consider him a friend to me andmy family for life. Thank you Captain Robert, the memories you helped uscreate are priceless we will see you again soon !!!Greg

Excellent Vacation!

I wanted to write a review of my family’s experience with Captain Robert . I will begin by saying that this trip, start to finish, is our entire family’s favorite vacation. Like many of you, we did not fully know what to expect and even thought about only going for a few nights just to be sure. However, we booked the full week and it was the best decision we could have possibly made. Captain Robert is the consummate professional. He began the trip by letting us know that he is always there to assist, but would not get in the way of family memories being made. His knowledge of the boat and the surrounding Belizean islands is nothing short of incredible. Our entire process began with excellent communication that outlined my family’s interests, including food/drink likes/dislikes in order to stock the boat with appropriate provisions. Once onboard, Captain Robert and I made final decisions regarding the agenda for the week, including which islands made the most sense for my family. Although he is happy to set off north for anyone interested in the more tourist locales of Caye Caulker and San Pedro, he was incredibly flexible to my family’s desire to go south and see some of the smaller more quiet and pristine islands. For us, this was the perfect direction, including Goff’s Caye, Rendezvous, Bluefield Ranch, Tobacco and South Water Caye.
