Reviews
We had a magical week on the Nae Kae. We felt safe and cared for in your expert hands. So many trip highlights on board and off... longer sails, delicious and beautifully presented meals (and boards!) and fabulous cocktails, major boutique shopping, gorgeous water and beaches, and the unforgettable Gumption Necker Island tour... Soggy Bottom... I mean Dollar... did have a mean Pain Killer and Hendo’s a very good ceviche. Caper’s Band was also a fave. Hope the dingy serves you well for many more days and that you are #blessed with good vibes all summer long. Thank you for being great hosts and guides,

Thank you for the most magical week! It’s almost impossible to decide what we liked best—but the only sad moment was discovering that the remaining Key Lime Pie was missing. So many beautiful destinations, so many delicious meals, and so many belly laughs. You both anticipated every need we might have and never complained (aloud!) about anything. You are professional, highly skilled, patient, and fun! We hope someday we can sail with you again.
Thank you for everything!

The yacht was very clean and they maintained it that way throughout.Their attention to detail was apparent but we were also able to live on the boat and enjoy all parts. we loved all aspects of the boat.
Food was amazing. We moved to half board and thought getting off the boat would be a good idea. We had some great meals and experiences off boat...Maya's food was the best!! She was very accommodating and listened to everyone!! It was personalized and perfect.
Jonathan
Where do we even start? From #Beryl/schedule changes to laughing so hard until we cried at Doyle during the name game, there isn’t a memory we won’t cherish for many years to come! The seas were rocky, but the times were good! Thank you for celebrating our 50th with us. You made the entire trip a fantastic trip with our favorite people.
I will never look at a sheet of paper, the same again. Thank you for opening up to us and sharing food, discussions, and loads of comedy! Thank you so much! I am not as gay as Brittan, but I am way more exciting! It’s not goodbye it’s see ya later! So grateful and thank you for answering all my questions, and inquiries!
The cookies! So good! The food and the steak and the rancheros and the ceviche and more good appetizers and cookies, so good! Can’t wait to sail again !
Heather, Jonathan, Dhani, Marsha, Britton and Will
Thank you so much for the wonderful trip! You made everything enjoyable for our celebration. The impressive meals and going over and above for Aaron‘s dietary needs. Karen’s birthday was very special. Thank you for delivering the cake too! It was delicious. Beautiful boat, beautiful places. The trip met all expectations. Thanks for putting up with all our partying fun. We all wish you the best of luck with your new improved cat. And for the record, Arabian horses are not only the smartest, but also the prettiest.
Thank you again, stay juicy.
Love,
Karen, Justin, Julie, Dave, Dana, Erin, Bloody Bob and Jen
Thank you for welcoming us into your home. You treat this boat with lots of care, love and respect and it shows!
We started this awesome vacation as strangers, and I feel we are leaving as friends! This has been an experience of a lifetime. I appreciate you learning all the little details of love makes each of us feel a little more special.
Maya… All I can say, is you are one HELL of a cook. Fabulous… each meal.
Discovering the different islands and learning about BVI was another highlight!
Doyle makes sure you see all of the best spots! Sorry for all the questions!! And for bringing Jack!
Enjoyed it all!!
Mark and Julie
I seriously don’t know where to start! I knew this trip would be amazing but you guys blew those expectations out of the water! All of my research did not even compare to this experience. You are both amazing at your jobs and amazing as beautiful people too. I only hope our paths cross again somewhere in the future. The beautiful places you took us, the amazing food, the peaceful and relaxing days that turned Into beautiful night. All the fun and laughter and we are so glad we all finally figured out each others humor!!! You work like a well oiled machine together and the eight of us will forever remember this trip and how you both made it even better! Remember, if you ever get to SoCal, we have lots of room for you to stay, and you won’t have to do a damn thing… Just relax like we did. Thank you for the best vacation I’ve ever been on! Keep in touch!
Sammi
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for one spectacular vacation. Giving 110% all day, every day as you both do is no easy task yet you both flow seamlessly together and make it appear a piece of cake!
Anticipating our needs is a knack you also both have. Doyle– I believe you may know Jack a tad better than I might. What a gift for seeing people and perhaps that is part of the reason this trip is so special.
Each and every spot we anchored, each and every meal we ate, just kept getting better and better. Maya, your talents know no bounds.
All the best wishes,
Lynne and Jack
Thank you both for an incredible trip filled with unforgettable memories. Both of you were a perfect team and made us feel so welcome the minute we stepped on the Nae Kae. This trip has far exceeded expectations and we will definitely come back for another excursion in the near future.
Doyle, your command of the boat was flawless and made us feel so comfortable and safe. Thank you for putting up with our little nuances and especially for the priceless drone flying lessons.
Maya, thank you for your exquisite culinary skills, for delighting our tastebuds, and for the many wonderful breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Your attention for detail did not go unnoticed, and we are grateful for you!
I hope both of you will consider visiting Costa Rica in your next travel endeavors.
Pura Vida,

Absolutely amazing week of adventure, food, laughs, sailing, sites, drinks, and meeting you both. We did it all in one short week and are forever grateful. The BVI are beautiful but you both are amazing people and truly made the trip! We hope to see you in Steamboat or Bend- you are always welcome!
Until then-
Brian
Wow! That doesn't begin to cover how this trip played out. From the moment we stepped on board you made us feel welcomed and comfortable.You have created a special space and truly brought us into your home. We Loved hearing your stories, getting to know you both, and experiencing the beauty of the BVI. The roses…Maya's food... appetizers on the bow, dinner up top (felt like celebrities), the snorkeling and other water fun, watching Doyle kite surf, getting a taste of both “touristy” at Willie T’s to experiencing the wild nature at the Bubbling Pools. I loved watching the sails unfurl, seeing the dolphins, eels and rays. The time spent with dear friends and making new ones in you both was priceless. Next time we will let Brian win the Euchre tournament.
A toast to you both with “mini-beers”

P.S. Doyle - Iguanas do have brains! :)
our hearts, and we are never ever the same." - Flavia
Doyle & Maya - We are all so very grateful for the energy and heart that you poured into each ofus to make this such a memorable adventure. My rose and thorn intersected as it was truly amazing to have the trip go so fast and flawlessly with 10 people but flying by too fast for us... aspect of the journey felt relaxed, easy and therefore very enjoyable as we navigated the BVI islands and the fun each had to offer. It was a perfect combo of relaxation and doing! Obviously, we can't say enough about the food...every meal was incredible and Maya spoiled us and amazed us with her creativity in the kitchen. Seriously we’d buy the Maya-Nae Kae cookbook :)) And Doyle's stealthy dance around the boat was confidence inspiring and made us all feel safe and comfortable the entire time! We hope that Denver is on both of your travel schedules in the near future. We'd love to host you (although the food may not be as spectacular). Again, thank you both for welcoming us into your home, sharing your beautiful surroundings, navigating an unforgettable trip and rewarding us with your friendship!
Here's to more adventures to come!

Thank you so much for such a special experience, this has been the best trip of my life. It was so special to experience one of the most beautiful places in the whole world but getting to know both of you has been equally special. You are both truly such special souls, and what you create on this boat together can only be described as magic. My heart is so full leaving this week and I hope you know how once in a lifetime this experience was for all of us. I hope we can meet again soon and until then I am sending you all the mermaid magic! Thank you Maya, for your outstanding meals, which have truly ruined all other foods for me, and for all of your laughter and kindness. Thank you Doyle for your thoughtfulness and strength as a captain and for always making us laugh while keeping us safe.
Much love,
Lucie
P.S. we’re so sunburnt our cats won’t recognize us
How can we ever express on paper the extraordinary, larger than life week of perfection we experienced on Nae Kae with you‽ You crafted each day to be special and centered around our hopes for the most spectacular week we could imagine. Your thoughtfulness each day, each meal, each activity was evident. As ours was a 60’s cruise, with four of us having a birthday party, one each evening, you were able to create a special event every night. We laughed, we danced, snorkeled, dined, and explored with such joy. Thank you both for welcoming us into your home and showing us the beauty of the USVI’s and the BVI’s. We can never forget these happy memories.
Love, the Arnold and Baker Family
Words can’t express how grateful we are for the most amazing week. If you bottled joy that best describes how I felt and the energy on board. Thank you for helping us create new lifelong memories, you are a part of our family now! You two are world class and make such an amazing team. My mom turned 60 this year so it was really special to make her feel loved and spend this time all together. Please come visit us in Alabama anytime. We’d love to have you for a proper football game. Roll Tide!

Janel and Jeff
Captain Doyle and Cheff Maya, what an amazing week our group had. None of us had sailed before, and you’ve ignited a passion in all of us to do this again. The food was amazing! We felt like we were dining at a Michelin star restaurant each night. Thank you, Maya! Doyle, thank you for the amazing itinerary and spots we stayed each night and your willingness to go off script when we had a request. All of our friends back home are very jealous and most likely future clients. Thanks again for the trip/experience of a lifetime.
Steven and Gretchen
Sam (Ritu-Tanmeet) & Deepika NelakWe can't thank you enough for creating such a magical week for our group. We knew from the moment we stepped onto the beautifully decorated boat that we were in for a treat and you not only did not disappoint but went above and beyond to help make every minute of the trip extra special. The beautiful scenery was surpassed only by the gourmet meals and kind gestures you told to make us feel welcome and cared for - from delicious jello shots for our dance party to ensuring we didn't step on sea urchins to everything in between. Thank you for being so amazing - we will be back for sure!
Sara & Bryce Bates
Thank you for being the individuals that you are and for bringing all of your incredible skills and attributes to create an amazing week for our eclectic group. Your patience, kindness, thoughtful caring and wonderful sense of humor made this time very special. Creating and curating spaces in and around the boat for a choose your own adventure vacation to meet everybody's needs—both those they expected and those needs they didn't even know existed. You are an exceptional team, and I appreciate the time and effort that goes into making that teamwork seem so natural and effortless.
What an incredible week of memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for sharing your home with us. Love & hugs. Please look us up if you're in Maine.

Thank you for the most memorable 40th birthday a girl could ask for. Unequivocally, the trip of a lifetime. I don’t think there was ever a moment on our trip where we weren’t laughing or smiling.
The sensational food, incredible itinerary, and the access to everything on board really made the trip extra special. But most importantly, your warm and welcoming personalities. We felt like family immediately.
Thanks for the memories!
This has been about the most incredible week of my life!!! If I had a bucket list, this would have been on it for sure!! Spending a week with my children has been so satisfying to my heart!
