We simply loved TiAmo

Excellent communication throughout from Chris at DMA, the boat, the crew and the experiences were all outstanding. Captain Eleni, Iliana and Marina onboard TiAmo were simply the BEST! Professional, courteous, fun, great at their jobs…we had a blast with them. The boat was perfect for our group of friends, the weather and the islands, the ports we visited were simply amazing. I’d recommend DMA, but more specifically, TiAmo and her crew!

Concierge Service

Louis was extremely knowledgeable and guided us through our first yacht charter experience which turned out to be exceptional. He was always at the ready to answer questions and communicate with the yacht crew before and during the charter. He provided excellent service and we highly recommend working with DMA.

Croatia yacht experience

DMA yachting arranged an amazing experience for us on the Elizabeth.
The yacht was beautiful and comfortable and the crew, captain Mate, chef Mico, and stewardess Nina were friendly, helpful, and professional. They gave us great suggestions for tours and restaurants and arranged drivers and guides for us.
We had a wonderful time!

The Bahama yacht charter arranged by Louis…

The yacht charter arranged by Louis Lamprell was superb. I had delayed the contract until after hurricane season to be sure that the boat was not damaged. The Nauti Dogs catamaran charter was everything advertised and more. The most spectacular part of the charter was Captain Trevor and Chef Sarah. I strongly encourage you to use Louis to book this charter and sail the most beautiful region of the Bahamas.

The boat was beautiful but….

The boat was beautiful. Marco our captain was not engaging, didn’t offer agendas/options for the day, some restaurant recommendations were not good and it seemed he didn’t want to sail, we motored a lot! Eleeza our hostess was great, funny, her cooking was outstanding. It would have been nice for her to tidy our rooms when she had time as she wasn’t busy the whole time we were onboard.

You entrusted us with your vacation—and we missed the mark.

We sold you a $14,000 bareboat catamaran with a skipper and cook—an option that clearly didn’t meet the standard of the fully crewed yachts we normally recommend and stand behind.

As the budget tightened, our broker didn’t draw a clear enough line between a bareboat with a captain and cook, and a truly crewed yacht. It’s the difference between a luxury resort and glamping—where your neighbor might cook, but won’t clean.

There is a difference between a skipper and a captain:
A skipper drives. A captain leads, hosts, and curates the experience.

There is a difference between a cook and a chef/hostess:
On a bareboat, there is no stewardess to handle the everyday details—like tidying cabins or emptying bathroom bins. It’s not about time; cleaning simply is not part of a cook’s role.

We should have communicated that distinction more clearly. That’s our responsibility.

Had we received this feedback during the charter, we would have pushed for immediate changes. Unfortunately, the crew—who were Croatian—did not pick up on your polite concerns. Cultural differences played a role, and your respectful feedback was not understood as a clear call for action.

We're taking this experience seriously. From now on, we won’t offer any boat we can’t fully stand behind.

It’s also clear from our track record: every 1- to 4-star review we’ve received stems from bareboats with added crew, typically under $20,000. We won’t sell them anymore.

We’re grateful for your feedback. It’s helping us sharpen our focus—and recommit to the standard we set out to uphold.

Great way to charter a boat

It was a pleasure to book a yacht through DMA Yachting, the rep that was assigned to us, stayed with us and answered all of our questions very quickly and guided us through the whole process, as well as during the charter to make sure that everything went great, and it did!

Sarah was so responsive

Sarah was so responsive, informative and friendly to our questions about the process of booking a sailing charter. This was a new travel experience for us so I wasn’t sure what to expect and had many questions. We couldn’t have asked for anything better! Thank you!

Exceptional Yacht Broker!!

We had a terrific charter in the BVI! This is the second time Louis Lamprell found us the perfect sailing yacht that exceeded our expectations! From start to finish, Louis was there for us. He really takes the time to listen, answer questions, and set up calls with the crew. He even followed-up during and after the charter to make sure everything went well. If you are looking for the vacation of a lifetime, contact Louis and DMA Yachting!

Nadja with DMA Yachting was amazing from start to finish. She guided us thru the process of choosing a vessel that fit our needs and budget. She was in contact with us prior to, during and after our AMAZING charter. The Captain (Dwight) and Chef (Tia) really exceeded all expectations and the BVI is beautiful. If you are looking to charter a vessel for the BVI or anywhere, reach out to DMA Yachting and ask for Nadja.

Fantastic experience

Marcelle was enthusiastic, informative and lovely from first contact.
The crew was incredible. Captain Tasos modified our route to avoid weather (we stayed just ahead of storms) and provided a varied experience on types of islands. Savvina was kind and is an amazing cook! Harris was playful, energetic and very helpful. All were kind and professional.
The boat was lovely, with many comfortable places to hang out. The kids loved the toys, and there was enough time to enjoy them in lovely coves.
Valium 62 provided us a memorable family trip of a lifetime.

William was wonderful! We booked a charter for our adult kids for a week in the BVI's. He matched us with the perfect Cat and was extremely attentive and professional through the process. I highly recommend DMA as well as William! Thank you, and I will definitely use you for our next trip!

5* service from Louis all the way

5* service from Louis all the way. First time using DMA as a Tour Operator based in the UK and it was exceptional. Even when the boat we had booked had a technical issue 3 days before charter Louis came up trumps with a replacement and the guests LOVED it! Would 100% book again.

Most AMAZING vacation - cannot recommend DMA, Earnout, Capt Bill, Chef Ashley and John highly enough!!!

I wish I could it give it more than five stars. Our entire family agrees our eight days in the Exumas was our best vacation ever. Every aspect of the trip was INCREDIBLE. From the start, working with John Boullin the broker at DMA was a fantastic experience - he was super responsive and knowledgable finding us the perfect boat for our family of four (two teenage boys). Earnout was top notch - a gorgeous spacious yacht decorated beautifully. Every aspect of the boat and decor so well thought out. It came with tons of water toys that kept everyone very busy when not just relaxing and enjoying the serene beauty. The best part, however, might have been the crew - Captain Bill Holden and Chef Ashley Akers were just incredible. So lovely, friendly and accommodating in every way. Bill would set us up fishing, take us to great spots snorkelling, drag us in dingy through mangroves on a raft he blew up, take us tubing and even instructed the four of us on two intro scuba dives. He did it all so calmly, so kindly and so competently. We felt like we were in such safe and fun hands. Chef Ashley’s food was BEYOND delicious and gorgeous. Every meal was a Michelin 5 star restaurant in taste and presentation. She made us such healthy, fresh and delicious meals - no one left a morsel on a plate even our pickier teenage boys. From sunrise to sunset they were taking such good care of us and ensuring we had the trip of a lifetime. We cannot recommend DMA, Earnout, John, Ashley and Bill highly enough!!!
