From the Logbook

Our take: Gypsy Princess

A well-maintained Lagoon 450 flybridge version, Gypsy Princess offers a comfortable and affordable crewed charter experience for up to six guests. While a 2012 model, the yacht has seen recent upgrades, including a new cockpit table for group dining and refreshed saloon cushions. The layout maximizes social spaces, featuring an extra-large flybridge lounge with a padded sun deck and a sunken forward cockpit—an ideal spot for sunset cocktails. Each of the three queen cabins includes an en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning, and high-quality French linens for a touch of luxury.

Capt. Quentin brings over a decade of charter experience, ensuring a balance of adventure and relaxation, while Chef Marine crafts flavorful dishes influenced by French, Italian, and Asian cuisine. She also mixes up delicious cocktails, making for a well-rounded hospitality experience. For groups seeking a budget-friendly yet stylish way to explore the BVI, Gypsy Princess delivers comfort, great service, and easygoing charm.

BVI Only charter February 2021

Awesome trip, and despite some paperwork, (which is much easier than filling out a credit card application) the entry in and out of Tortola was excellent. Planning on going back early March. Those that were handling the testing where all professional; very clean, and for the most part efficient. Testing on Tortola was quick/testing in Virgin Gorda a bit slower, but still clean, and results came back quickly.
The four days of on-board quarantine was fine, we did not feel any different other than having some bays completely to ourselves.

The boat was awesome. The crew pre-anticipated all our needs, not sure what we would have done without them; and the best part is that you can see that they love their job, take pride of ownership in Gypsy Princess, resulting in deliverables that are genuine.

The crew of Gypsy Princess,
I've been on many vacations and stayed at some very exclusive resorts so I wasn't sure how my first sailing adventure would compare especially during covid. I can honestly say that this was one of the best if not THE best vacation I've ever experienced. Being quarantined on the GP and the two covid tests were almost insignificant, having seas and coves almost exclusively to ourselves was incredible.

Your knowledge of the islands past and present, the 5-star food prepared on board daily, the snorkeling adventures, the sunset horseback riding on the beach, and the restaurant recommendation was outstanding. Your effort to ensure that everything was perfect (which it was !!) was appreciated and obvious. From pick up, to drop off, to testing, and to everything in between you guys were amazing.

I have already told several of my friends that the trip on the Gypsy Princess is a bucket list adventure and I hopefully will be sailing again with you in the future.

Warm regards from a cold new Jersey
Paul
