Dear Nova crew, Berj’s dream vacation was to sail the Greek islands. He asked me to coordinate it. Never in my wildest dreams did I expect to put together such a fabulous trip. Nova is a beautiful catamaran. You the crew make certain everyone from all age groups have fun. We enjoyed the various islands with all the special sites. The water activities were also fun. Food was extraordinary and presentation was beautiful. Thanks for making Berj’s dream vacation a reality.

Dear Costas, Akis and Dina, I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful amazing week aboard the beautiful Nova. We had been planning this trip a family for the past 3 years, and you exceeded ALL our expectations. Costas you are a very skilled Captain and you always set us up in the very best spots, thank you !! Akis you are the most amazing Chef, we have NEVER had such amazing food. We ate so much more than we should, diets when we get home, but it was all worth it because it was truly AMAZING and so delicious. Dina, thank you for being such a caring and fun hostess, always making sure our needs were met. Thank you for the wonderful massage and foot scrub. You’re the best ! This trip was epic for our family and we leave with so many beautiful memories that we will cherish for a lifetime. We hope to return again soon ! Thanks for everything !

Thank you so much for the most incredible holiday ever !! You guys have been so helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble for you. Thank you Captain Costas for the awesome buoy rides and managing to get us off (it can be a hard task !). Thank you Akis for the absolutely amazing food, you are an incredible chef and you are going to make it very hard for me to go home and adapt to my own cooking again. Lastly thank you Dina for the countless cocktails and lots of laughs, you have been so much fun and really spoiled us. This has been a trip I’ll never forget ! Lots of love

Dear Costas, Dina and Takis, Thank you so much for such a wonderful holiday. We’ve had some great holidays before but this must be the best ! Captain Costas, nothing was too much trouble. Your knowledge of the islands meant that each day was perfect. And you even found octopus for us to look at up close, and dived for sea urchins for our aperitif. Takis, the food you cooked was amazing ! I don’t think we’ve had a week of such deliciousness. You have spoilt us all and we are extremely grateful for the thoughtfulness and care around our different dietary needs. And Dina, what can I say ? There seems to be nothing you can’t do. You are always so cheerful and made us feel very special for our holiday. Thank you for taking care of us !

Dear Captain Costas, Dina and Takis, Thank you for the trip of a lifetime ! From the moment we boarded Nova, we felt comfortable being in your friendly and capable hands. Captain Costas, you navigated through the most stunningly beautiful waters, and brought us the most magical destinations. The beautiful painting we bought of your home town Hydra will occupy a prominent place in our home. Thank you as well for all the fun water activities, you’re the greatest ! Dina, you are “super”. You assisted the Captain, tended to Nova, and catered to our every need without skipping a beat. We love you ! Takis, the meals that we enjoyed on Nova were by far the most delicious we have ever had. You are truly a master chef. The ingredients were fresh, the preparation was extraordinary, and best of all… your charming presentation. Thank you all for your expertise, warmth, and kindness. You will forever be kept special in our hearts, till we meet again. Love.

Notre 3ème expédition sur Nova fut aussi merveilleuse que les précédentes. Nous avons découvert des nouvelles îles des Cyclades accompagnés d’un fort meltem de force 7 ! Nous avons surmonté tout cela avec brio et un grand sourire. Une nouvelle découverte cette année fut Stelios, ce talentueux chef qui nous a initiés à la cuisine sous vide, un vrai délice ! Capitaine Costas et Dina sont toujours aussi présents et pleins de délicates attentions pour nous, rendant ce voyage mémorable. Thank you very much, we will miss you !

We enjoyed a relaxing cruise in the northern Dodecanese islands. Nova is extremely comfortable compared to its peers, with perfect layout and excellent seakeeping. The crew has been professional and reliable in any respect. Food onboard was delicious and better than any restaurant ashore. Thanks captain Costa, Nasos and Dina PS: we have had a very good time and hope to repeat next year
