You dream about it…
Sailing to far off beautiful places, crystal blue waters, secluded white sand beaches and evening skies
where the stars at night feel close enough to touch. It’s an escape that will make you wonder how you
ever lived without experiencing it. It’s the type of relaxation that can only be explained as intoxicating.
Specializing in all-inclusive, crewed catamaran sailing vacations, Festiva Sailing Vacations allows
you the opportunity to experience the yachting lifestyle at a fraction of the cost by making it
available by the stateroom. Reserve just a stateroom for two and join two other couples or reserve
the entire catamaran for you and up to six or eight of your friends and family and enjoy the entire
yacht for your own group.
From the moment you board one of our luxury catamarans, your every wish is our goal. From
a mouthwatering selection of island gourmet meals highlighted with your favorite cocktail, to a
variety of onboard activities such as snorkeling, sea kayaking and more, our captain and chef/
hostess will plan your trip so it is the best it can possibly be.
We invite you to join us in one of the many exotic island locations around
the world for “The vacation of a lifetime.”
Impeccable Service
The best way to describe a week with us is ‘mindless relaxation.’ Our captain and hostess/
chef will take care of your every need and show you the best the islands have to offer,
leaving your decisions to… red wine or white, snorkeling or beachcombing, hanging with
the locals or enjoying alone time with your favorite book. The onboard menu consists of
mouthwatering cuisine catered to your dietary requirements and preferences. It’s no wonder
we meet or exceed the expectations of our guests 98% of the time.
Exhilaration And Relaxation
During your week in paradise you will experience the islands as they were meant to be explored
and we provide all the gear and toys you’ll need for adventure. Spend the days snorkeling among
beautiful reefs and historic shipwrecks, explore the coves by sea kayak, dance until dawn at favorite
island hot spots or take an island tour to discover some of the region’s rich history and culture. Let us
treat you to a romantic picnic on a secluded beach away from the crowd or just relax on the deck and
enjoy the sights in search of our next `most beautiful place’ you’ve ever been.
Our Stateroom Fleet
Our stateroom fleet of beautiful Lagoon catamarans offers luxurious cruising with a focus on space and
style. Each of our catamarans has a four stateroom layout, each with a private en-suite bathroom. With
the amenities you would expect to find in any fine hotel, each stateroom comes with linens, towels, soaps
as well as individual air-condition controls. In all our destinations our catamarans can accommodate up to
six guests with the exception of the British Virgin Islands. Here we can also accommodate groups of up to
eight on catamarans that have separate berths for the crew. In addition to our stateroom charters, Festiva
Sailing Vacations has access to additional yachts worldwide. Whether it’s smaller or larger fully crewed
yachts or bareboats, our professional charter staff can help you find the perfect yacht for your vacation.

Destination Guide
Each of our exotic sailing destinations offers its own distinct personality, interesting
local culture and rich history providing you with a week filled with new adventures and
experiences. Unlike a large cruise ship, you will enjoy eyesight sailing during the day
in well protected waters and in the evenings we’ll be anchored in picturesque coves
enjoying a spectacular star-filled night sky. Your safety and comfort is paramount and
our catamarans and crew provide this no matter where you choose to sail.
Known as the Sailing Capital of the World,
the British Virgin Islands features more
than 25 beautiful islands with abundant
beaches and great reefs. The well protected,
calm sailing waters of the Sir Francis Drake
Channel are highlighted with traditional
Caribbean beach bars, crystal blue waters
and luxurious beach resorts.
