ISLAND KISSES GUESTS COMMENTS
Celebrating 40th Birthdays July 2024
To the world's best Captain & First Mate (aka Fifi & Andre!)
I can't imagine a more fun way to explore the BVIS! Everything from Fifi's gourmet meals to Andre's action-packed activities (and patience while we tried all the new things!) was absolutely perfect! Y'all helped us check things off our bucket list (swimming in the middle of the ocean !), took us to the coolest hot spots & hole in the walls, rescued our mahjong cards each time they blew into the water ( you think we would have learned !) & met us with a smile around every corner ! We are leaving with the fullest hearts (and bellies!) and best memories! You two are something special and we wish yall a life time of love!
-Allison & Chris
Thank you Fifi and Andre for an amazing week! It was truly an unforgettable time- the best 40th!! Thank you!

Quality Family Time May 2024 BVI
Andre and Fifi, our crew,
The best on the ocean blue!
They plotted our path,
To Cooper and the Bath,
‘Cuz they realized we hadn’t got a clue.
Lobster and steaks, fruit galore,
Pasta and fish and much more.
The food was sublime
As we sailed the coast line,
We ate ‘till our jaws were all sore!
We’re so glad we did something so hip.
It’s far better than a blah-blah cruise ship.
With our captain and mate,
The greatest of great!
Just a fabulous sailing boat trip!
“The time we spent on Island Kisses was amazing! We had family time, rest time, adventure time and just the most amazing trip ever! Fifi and Andre, you made the trip so easy and wonderful and we will remember you always!”

Spring Break March 2024
We had the best Spring Break ever!
Our favorite parts are when we went snorkeling on the reef and the wreck. We took some really good hikes and we found some big and cool shells and some good views.
Andre took us on some great tubbing and great wakeboarding. Fifi’s cooking was so good some of our favorite meals were steak, pasta, pizza and the desserts were so good, our favorite ones were the traditional portuguese dessert (Pastel de Nata), the crumble, and the lava cake.
Thanks Fifi and Andre for being so kind and making our trip the best ever!
-Ally, 9 years old

Christmas 2023 BVI
Dear Andre and Fifi,
Thank you for an amazing and very special week! We loved spending Christmas with the two of you. You did such a great job of accommodating our special guests and needs. You're great every step of the way, from the pre-trip planning to our final night, everything was amazing. You listened and noted and incorporated all our preferences to make sure we had the best trip. Fifi - we loved everything you fed us! The crab cakes, the ribs, the starters and snacks and all the incredible desserts. We were so very, very spoiled and pampered. Our cabins were so nicely appointed and set-up. We were comfortable and every need anticipated and accommodated. Andre - Thank you for planning an incredible route. We loved each of the stops, each more beautiful than the last. I can't even pick a favourite. Thank you for the smooth dinghy rides and the fabulous swim platform. You made every request seem possible always a "No problem" attitude. The playlist made the trip special as well. several songs will forever make me think of this trip. And, the beautiful pictures that you took with the camera and drone captured special moments for us. Thank you, thank you for all of it.
Beyond being amazing, perfect crew for us, thank you for being the special, talented , smart kind patie people you are. We have made new friends for life!! Your hard work and attention to every detail made our special family trip one we will never forget!
Love Jane, Fred, Kennidy, Salvadore and Francesca.
