April 2026 BVI Charter

Keith, Casey, Christo & Chene,

Words cannot express how wonderful our week on Aeolus has been. Barry has dreamed of a sailing trip like this for a long time, and celebrating our 40th anniversary this way made it truly special. This has been, without question, the best charter experience we’ve ever had.

Aeolus looked beautiful online, but the real experience far exceeded anything we imagined. The yacht is incredibly well-decorated, comfortable, and luxurious. The crew is simply outstanding.

Every meal was exceptional—creative, delicious, and full of flavor—paired with unique drinks and beautiful table settings. Truly the best food we’ve ever had.

We were 100% pampered. Every request was met with enthusiasm, and the crew was both professional and genuinely fun.

The water toys were fantastic, and we really appreciated the effort you all put into helping us learn and enjoy them. It’s clear you work incredibly well together as a team.

This is an absolutely beautiful place to experience with such a talented crew. You made us feel safe, cared for, and completely looked after. We would love to join you again.

Hugs to all,
Pam & Barry

What a fantastic journey—Aeolus was AMAZING! Every detail was considered and personalized. We felt incredibly special and cared for throughout.

There were so many thoughtful touches that made each experience unique—custom cocktails, beautifully prepared meals, and seamless service. Casey’s creativity shone through in every dish, and Christo’s attention to detail—especially with the water toys—was impressive. Everything ran effortlessly.

Keith—what can we say—an incredible captain. Each day was perfectly planned, and every location felt like the best one yet.

Saturday was especially memorable—so much fun, and every stop was perfection.

Thank you to the entire crew!

Aeolus Crew—

Thank you for taking such great care of us. The yacht was beautifully maintained and perfectly equipped for us to enjoy the trip.

We loved the balance of sailing and cruising through such stunning islands. The attention to detail in every aspect of the experience was clear.

The food and drinks were outstanding and consistently excellent throughout. We felt safe, relaxed, and thoroughly pampered.

The crew worked seamlessly together—it truly shows.

We hope to see you again soon.

Everything exceeded our highest expectations—truly a trip of a lifetime and the perfect way to celebrate a major milestone.

The experience struck the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation. From snorkeling and e-foiling to simply enjoying the surroundings, every moment was memorable.

The food, drinks, and overall service were exceptional. The crew made the entire experience effortless and enjoyable.

We were treated like royalty. Without a doubt, the best crew anyone could ask for.

We will absolutely be back.

December 2025 BVI Charter

We chartered Aeolus in December, just prior to the holidays. Upon arrival, we found a magnificent yacht, maintained to the highest standards. The crew, led by Captain Keith, was just awesome, with First Mate Christo and Stewardess Chene taking great care of us upon our arrival. Casey, the chef, was just absolutely fantastic. Every meal was extraordinary, from breakfast to lunch and dinner.

We took part in every activity that the toys and gear allowed us to enjoy. We kept the crew and Captain Keith very busy with all of our activities. We used the e-foil, the sea bob and the sailboat, and the diving excursions were fantastic. The best part of our activities were actually sailing the boat. Keith took great effort to ensure that we got to sail as much as possible on our trip.

The entire crew absolutely spoiled us - they had a positive and can do attitude and approach for the entire trip. We can’t think of a single thing that could’ve made this trip any better. Our sincere thanks to the entire crew and we look forward to our next trip on board Aeolus.

Your thoughtfulness in every detail makes us not want to leave, but apparently the next charter group doesn’t want our company!

Casey - the food was divine! A culinary experience to say the least! My favorite meal was the lobster, the best I have ever had! You managed to have our children cleaning their plates at every seating! Another mission accomplished. Thank you for all your hard work on our bellies behalf. Only wish we could have seen you more.
Chene - "Pleasure" doesn't even do you justice! Your kindness cannot be matched and the mixology of ALL things incomparable! Thank you for taking such good care of all of us and laying down the law with our kiddos! Your personal touches were the icing to the memories we will take with us. When we get a boat #youarehired
Christo - Thank you for making the kids' watersporting dreams a reality! You went above and beyond to make sure they knew what they were doing, were safe, and got better every day. I'm happy they figured out the water cannon on their own. You also made each dinner such a delight with your lighting expertise! #youarealsohired
Michael - Kudos to planning the perfect itinerary! You certainly catered to our watersporting desires. I hope we made this charter memory a lasting one. May the mark of Knox bring a smile to your face when you think of us. You played doctor more than you needed to and filled our brains with boating knowledge we will hopefully need one day!

We lived in luxury, ate like kings, drank works of art, and learned that laughter on the water was the perfect way to spend days -- much of that laughter was watching each other try to master the e-foil. Each of your talents -- Michael's leadership, Casey's magic skills in the kitchen, Chene's wonderful ability to mix drinks and anticipate every need, and Christo's fabulous energy as he met our every water sport need -- created the perfect trip.

You all provided exceptional service and trust for my first time in the U.S.VI + BVI. You were all so caring, patient, friendly and professional. Words cannot describe being in your presence for a week! Casey, I applaud you for making my meals vegan and being so great at it. I am a big foodie, your meals have been the best I’ve ever had. I know you worked tirelessly to feed us and you’re seen for that. Nicole, your service is beyond first class. You treated us like queens and your drinks were the best thing I’ve ever had! The notes you left on my pillow is something I’ll take home with me to do in my household. Josh, you are quiet but you are seen for all of your hard work, physical work and making this trip so smooth and flawless - you are acknowledged!

Thank you for the diet accommodation for myself, thank you Nicole for the amazing dance moves and thank you to the boys for making us all feel comfortable. Until we meet again! - Laurel

This was a trip of a lifetime with 5+ star crew. Sharing a week of adventures with The Lady Sirens was a blast. An amazing group of ladies, leaving as friends with stronger bonds. I can’t thank the crew enough. They made the week flawless. Make a request and they would make it happen. Casey - thank you for the amazing food. You covered us… we never went hungry. You quickly learned preferences and accommodated them with ease (well, you made it look that way). I wish I could even come close to the amazing, healthy meals and treats you made. True talent!

Keep being amazing! - Candace

Previous Vessel '23 Review

Thank you both for being such kind and thoughtful vacation planners, our trip was wonderful. We made a lot of memories together and are grateful for everything you did to make it happen! Here are a few of our favorite memories: Gumption and all he entails: entrepreneur, DJ, Tour Guide, Lemur expert, photographer, and promoter! Michael's pants being assaulted by the chair in Anegada; may they find the courage to be worn again in public. Billy Ocean and Casey's bellowing laughs on Murder Mystery Night. Mom and her lost and found jewelry and hat nearly being blown to Puerto Rico. Of course we will always miss and remember Casey's delicious food. Thanks for being so flexible with us; it's going to be a sad farewell at the end of this vacation. We wish you both well in your next adventure and hope to see you on the islands next season!

Previous Vessel '23 Review

After our last charter, I think we all wondered if it was possible to match that experience...you guys exceeded it!! This was an amazing week with you both and it was so needed after a crazy, challenging few years. Casey, the food and service was perfect - we'll all be thinking of you when we're back in the gym. Thank you for making it amazing!! Michael, the quiet competence with a side of Texas sass. You did such a great job being our Captain, host, and guide. Thank you - we'd follow you both to any boat or place. This place is special to all of us and you made it more so. Thank you for taking such good care of us.
- Matt & Leni

Thank you both for such an amazing and fun trip.

We stumbled aboard late, tired, stressed, and excited to start our week. Within the hour we were casually laughing and getting into the groove of the vacation of a lifetime. Words cannot express our thanks for all the delicious food, special cocktails, patience, jokes, and most of all just taking care of everything so we just had to sit back and relax. Everyone agrees: Exceeded our Expectations!
One thing is for sure, this trip would have not been as amazing, fun, and memorable without our Crew - Michael & Casey. You are the VERY BEST. We feel so lucky to have selected Liquid Zen and spent our week with you. Can't thank you enough.

What a ride (literally)! Our Iowa YPO group will forever remember your phenomenal hospitality. The week couldn't have been more perfect from the beautiful spreads of delicious food, the humor sprinkled in with fun music, flexible timing for our excursions, and tolerance for our "wild ones." You have found your calling and we are fortunate to have been your guests. We greatly appreciate your smiles, your never ending friendliness, and the quick-witted comments. We wish you the best because you are the BEST. Hope we get to do it again sometime! You've opened my eyes to a whole new world. Thanks for everything!

Friends,
It is difficult to re-create unique and magical moments. Congratulations, you did it! This has been an amazing week. The two of you go above and beyond to create the best experiences. We will leave with hearts full. The beautiful stops, yummy meals, exploring, and lots of laughter. As a group we had several discussions on how we really enjoyed getting to know you both more. You both are precious! Thank you for Everything! Don't you dare come to Florida without stopping to see us in Ocala!
Love Angie, Clint, RJ, Todd, Nicole, and Nay

This trip was absolutely incredible and that is because of y'all! It was like being at summer camp with the two most fun counselors. You guys kept us in line with good suggestions and lots of delicious food. It was so awesome getting to know y'all, learning cool stuff about the islands, exploring new spots, and so much laughing. Casey - you're an amazing chef and the kindest person. Michael - you're an effortless captain and hilarious person. Thank y'all so much for making the week so awesome. We hope to boat with the two of y'all again soon - maybe we can find a few more merch stops!

- Laurie & Stephen

Thank you for the perfect 25th anniversary trip! Both of you made the whole experience far beyond our dreams! Casey, we don't want 'french trained' cuisine ever, we just want your amazing 'Chiefdom'!! :) Captain, my Captain - Michael what an amazing leader and host you are! Thank you so much for your patience with my scuba anxiety and your tolerance for our husbands! We cannot thank you enough for all you did this week!
We will miss you both!

"To say this was the trip of a lifetime doesn't even come close to the true experience that you two created for our family. Our two families, though separated by distance, have been coming together for years, and this is by far the BEST trip we have ever taken. The attention to detail, your kindness, and patience truly stood out. We all know 100% for sure that we landed the best crew & boat in the entire USVIs. We all can't wait to return to meet again & experience the BVIs with you both. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!"
-The Zaps
if you ever need an extra crew member for night watch, you know who to call ;)

"What a treasure it was to be a part of your Liquid Zen world for a week. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making this the best week ever!! It is hard to pick a favorite day/memory from the week. The sunset hike, the "icing", the scuba diving, the FOOD, the drinks, pineapple card game, the night time snorkeling, will all be in our hearts forever. Your attention to detail is so impressive. The two of you make the best team and your hard work does not go unnoticed. Grant is already plotting the next boat trip to the BVIS, but we all agree we couldn't do it with anyone but the two of you! Take care and be safe, and we hope our paths cross again!"

"Thank you both for such an incredible experience on Liquid Zen! Even though our parents weren't able to make it, we had the BEST time and honestly wouldn't have it any other way (except maybe icing Brad at least *one* more time). This week truly was the best relaxation that I didn't know I needed.

To Casey: no words other than wow - this trip was filled with the most amazing food and really not sure how I can go back to reality at this point (lol) Thank You! To Michael: Thanks for being such a fun Captain despite our plot to lose the dinghy. Also thanks for initiating Brad into the family by icing him upon arrival. We won't forget these things along with all the other great memories!

We had such a great time hanging out with you both, and feel like we are leaving with two new friends. It's been an unforgettable trip & we can't wait to do it again! (maybe we'll even let our parents join next time haha). Cheers! Love Mollie, Hastings, Emily & Brad

"Thank you for saving our vacation from near-certain tragedy! Not only did we get a great boat, we got an even better crew. You are a great team and top notch across the board. You enabled us to make new friends (including you) while having the time of our lives. Not a boring moment. It is rare to find people in the world who are so good at making others feel so good, have so much fun, and make them eat so much!! We will miss you." -Shaun (aka boat man) & Betty

"What a fantastic week...and unexpected given the inauspicious start having our originally planned vacation canceled the morning of our flights. As it turned out, we were lucky. This past week was better than expected - good time with great friends, of course, but with a nicer boat and (I'm sure) a better crew. You two were great, organizing a fantastic itinerary with unexpected surprises - After Irma concert, massages, Lime Out, Zozos...and what wonderful food!!! Thank You!" - Heather and Lou

"We have lost ourselves in the moment of "today is today." I am hard pressed to think of another time in the last two years when I have felt so relaxed and carefree and slowed down. This was all possible because the two of you made things so easy, comfortable, and your knowledge of the islands and what you knew we would enjoy. There were too many highlights to pick out just one, but what I will remember the most is the belly laughs with the two of you and all our friends. Thank you for absolutely everything!" - Christine & Rob

"Michael & Casey,
Thank you for giving us a week full of experiences and memories that we will remember for a lifetime! From the food that was out of this world, to teaching Shane and Travis to scuba dive, and even showing us the ropes of sailing, we've had the most unforgettable week island hopping around the Virgin Islands!

Both of you have shown unbelievable kindness, grace, patience, wisdom, joy, laughter, and love to not only our family, but to each other! Each of you are truly an inspiration to us and everyone you encounter! Thank you for being such a highlight on our trip and welcoming us to your home with open arms. We hope you have an amazing 2022!
Love, The Cristiano Family"

"We've traveled all over the world and this has to be our favorite vacation so far! Thank you for taking such good care of us! Michael was a great Captain from working the sails to navigating the dinghy in the dark. Casey - the meals, snacks, and drinks were way beyond our expectations - every meal was the "BEST MEAL" (seriously create a cookbook and make some side $$!!). Our trip has ended much too soon - let us know where you are in a year so we can book another charter with you! If you're ever in Atlanta, you have a place to stay so give us a call (same with Nashville! Come see us & we will take you to Broadway :)). God Bless you in all your adventures!"
