Overview
Have you ever day dreamed about sailing away to a deserted tropical island? How about waking in a tranquil blue harbor to the smell of coffee, bacon, and your favorite gourmet breakfast cooking in the galley? Where the only stress you feel is deciding what to do today?

•	Snorkel through a kaleidoscope of vibrantly colored fish
•	Sea kayak to the caves that inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to write Treasure Island
•	Sail the famous Sir Francis Drake Channel
•	Dance barefoot under the stars at a beach bar frequented by the jet-set
•	Dive the wreck of a 17th century British Naval Vessel or,
•	Do nothing at all on one of the world’s most beautiful beaches with a good book and a bottomless glass of your favorite beverage

Where all the details of your dream are handled by your own attentive staff including an experienced captain to take you where you want to go and a gourmet chef to prepare sensational meals the way you want them?

You’ve come to right place. At Island Symphony we make these dreams come true for everyday people.

We’d like to share some of the reasons why a crewed luxury yacht vacation from Island Symphony may quite simply be the best vacation in the world.

•	Customization – Every aspect of an Island Symphony is developed with you in mind. You determine the itinerary, you set the menu, you choose your favorite drinks and plan your activities or lack there of. If you cruise by an interesting looking Island, why not stop and explore and if you like, stay the night. It is our pleasure to find out specifics about every aspect of your dream vacation and then put those requests into action.

•	Adventure for everyone! – the entire vacation can be an adventure and you decide which activities you want to experience. Get behind the helm of a classic sailing yacht. Dive over from a selection of over 300 shipwrecks. Sea Kayak through salt water mangroves and hunt for sea horses. Learn to wind surf or for the more adventurous Kite board. Water ski. Knee board. Hike to the top of a 1700 foot mountain. Explore underwater caves. Marvel at the site of 50 foot boulders at the Baths. Hunt for Caribbean lobster at the worlds third largest barrier reef. Swim with dolphins. Parasail. Jump from a cliff or walk the plank off the second tier of an authentic pirate ship. Tour the islands in a sea plane that lands at the foot of your yacht. Go on a helicopter safari for billfish and humpbacked whale. Tour the undersea world in a real submarine. Experience phosphorescent organisms and sleeping sea turtles during a night snorkel.

•	Relaxation – We have spent so much time talking about all that there is to do on a yacht we have yet to mention the favorite activity for most of our guests – relaxing. Doing nothing in style sounds like a perfect vacation for many busy executives. If curling up in a hammock with a good book and your favorite drink sounds like heaven you’ve come to the right place. A leisurely sail is a great way to calm your nerves. While the yachts have phone and email service your co-workers don’t have to know. If you want to get away from it all, your yacht can take your as far from civilization as you want to be so you can finally really relax and unwind.

•	Luxury Accommodations – The finest sheets, linen table cloths, and fine china sometimes seem out of place when the guests are barefoot and in t-shirts. Like a floating bed and breakfast your Island Symphony Luxury Yacht is decorated with good taste and the love of its owner. The master staterooms are spacious with King and Queen beds, air conditioning and separate showers. It is almost a shame the near perfect weather drives most people outside because each salon is as comfortable as it is unique with full entertainments centers, extensive reading libraries, DVD collections, and video and board games. It’s like having a room at the Ritz that goes where you want to go with the added convenience of only having to unpack once. And not unlike a luxury hotel, rendezvous spa services and personal training sessions can be arranged throughout your vacation (for additional fee).

•	World Class Customer Service – Our goal is to create the vacation of a lifetime for each of our guests and this experience begins with your first contact with Island Symphony. We love to be challenged by the most unique request and simply don’t like saying no to our guests. For Virgin Islands charter guests, our on Island location ensures that the little extras are handled directly by Island Symphony. Regardless of your destination you will be in the caring hands of our network of partners we consider friends. The level of service provided aboard the yachts will exceed the highest of expectations. Your crew is dedicated to meeting your every whim. Our fleet boasts some of the hospitality industry’s best and brightest talent with backgrounds in all aspects of hotel and restaurant management and even a contingency who have worked on African safari. When you experience an Island Symphony you’ll want to come back again and again.

•	Surprising Value – Starting at less than $250 per person per day all inclusive, a crewed charter yacht vacation represents incredible value. Compared with other all-inclusive offerings and you’ll be amazed at the value. Be careful drawing a comparison at any price as there is no real comparison.

•	Outstanding Cuisine – How often do you have a gourmet chef at your disposal? Our chefs have classical training and have worked in some of the best restaurants in the world. The best thing about your menu is that you help write it. We survey our guests to determine their preferences and standards and build a menu to suit their specific wishes. Fresh fish and lobster, grilled meats, French and Asian cuisine, what ever you wish for breakfast, lunch and dinner with nightly appetizers during happy hour. Check out the sample menus on our electronic brochures to see first hand the masterpieces our chefs can prepare. (Special Note - We cater to the most challenging diets and can prepare kosher, vegetarian, and Atkins meals. So if you like, you can go on a luxurious vacation without going on vacation from your diet.)

•	Fully Stocked Bar – The bar is always open and will also be stocked to meet your needs. Our all inclusive price includes your favorite beer (if available), wine (from a large selection) and top shelf spirits (Absolut is the standard for Vodka). Your captain will prepare some popular island libations like the Painkiller, Bushwhacker and Pina Colada as well as some unique recipes that you’ll beg to take home with you. If you are a non drinker; mineral water, fresh juice and soft drinks are abundantly available to quench your thirst. Any unique or special request like vintage wine or Dom Perignon can be met with an add-on fee based on wholesale pricing.

•	Romance / Family time – We take care of all the details to ensure an unparalleled romantic getaway. We will provide the beauty of the sea, the islands, the sunsets and the stars. Your crew knows all the romantic picturesque places to anchor and deserted beaches best suited for a romantic interlude with a champagne picnic. They will take care of the pampering, leaving you free to focus all your energy on your loved one. An Island Symphony Yacht Vacation is perfect for a honeymoon, anniversary or special event. Also, the intimate nature of your own private floating villa is a great environment for busy families to reconnect and spend quality time. So many activities are kid friendly and many of our yachts specialize in family activities like treasure hunts and “Pirates of the Caribbean” themed dinners.

•	Amazing Beauty! – it is nearly impossible to adequately describe the vibrant colors that exist in our charter destinations. The multiple shades of blue (water), green (lush plantlife) and every other imaginable color (sea life) demand appreciation. The mountainous topography and location of our islands and cays create a great backdrop for every photograph. The yachts provide underwater digital cameras for your use to capture those unique memories so you can relive your vacation and brighten up the dreariest winter day. If you haven’t relaxed in a hammock and stared at the stars in the Caribbean sky at night then you have never truly seen the heavens.

•	Quality – When your goal is creating the vacation experience of a lifetime, quality control is paramount. We personally inspect the yachts at the seasonal yacht shows to ensure that they meet the highest standards. In addition, we periodically spot check yachts throughout the year to ensure that they maintain yacht show standards while in charter. Also, ongoing research on yachts, crew and cruising destinations is conducted aboard our company yacht the M/V Adagio. While our expert opinions are important it is the thoughts of our guests that matter most. For this reason, we survey each guest by phone to get their feedback on important issues from the level of service and care provided by their crew to their perceptions of the food and yacht accommodations. To ensure that we maintain the highest level of quality we share the results of each survey with the yacht owners and crew.

•	Uniqueness / Cache’ – Let’s face it. Second only to the experience itself, is the fun you get from sharing the stories about your vacation with friends and family. Imagine their excitement hearing all about your vacation experiences aboard a luxury charter yacht with a private gourmet chef.

•	Safety – For our yachts safety is always a top priority. In many cases, more than one crew member is a licensed captain. In these uncertain times, the Virgin Islands enjoys the privilege of being a U.S. territory with top notch medical facilities and all U.S. government agencies. It can be reassuring to take an exotic vacation with the reassurance of homeland security.
