"I just wanted to tell you that we had a great time on
Iona (Bavaria 39). We were totally impressed with everything to
do with your company - quality of boat, cleanliness, equipment,
maintenance etc etc. But what was really appreciated was the quietly
efficient and very personal help from all the guys in Greece.
Derek and Joe were a pleasure to deal with and Laurie and Kate
could not have been more helpful, caring and courteous. You really
have a great little company there and I will be telling anybody
I know who is interested in sailing in Greece that they should
go with you" - Jack Harrison - Iona - Bavaria 39 - August
2007
"We have just come back from a weeks sailing on "Christopher
Robin" and I just wanted to thank you for a brilliant week;
the whole package was absolutely terrific. The taxi transfer from
the airport was seamless and the team at Perigalia were very helpful,
providing just the right amount of information and letting us
get to sea as quickly as possible. The boat was in immaculate
order and much better than I am used to chartering. Returning
the boat on the Sunday morning was even easier than the pick up
and enabled us to enjoy an early morning sail and sun rise. Thanks
again for an absolutely wonderful holiday and a massive Bravo
Zulu (that's "well done" in Navy speak) to the team
in Lefkas." - Cdr Brian Meakin - Christopher Robin - Bavaria
37 - August 2007
"From the moment of our arrival to our departure two
weeks later, it was clear that everybody was focussed on ensuring
that our summer holiday was as stress free as possible. The yacht
was immaculate and the Assisted Bareboat scheme was terrific,
providing the assurance that we would always have somehere to
moor at the end of the days cruising. Many thanks to all in providing
one of the most memorable holidays in the Neill family history!"
- Archie Neill - Truly & Villa Petaloutha - July 2007
"Just a short note to thank you for all your efforts
in putting together our break on "Gabriella". She was a very comfortable
boat which sailed surprisingly well and we will definitely book
with you again. Nisos exceeded our expectations, from the rather
awkward flight requirements we gave you to the boat-briefing and
return home you handled it all with aplomb. The boat was obviously
well maintained and gave us a great holiday. I will have no hesitation
in reccommending Nisos to anyone who asks." - Dr Thornton
MacCallum - Gabriella - Bavaria 44 - June 2007
"A DREAM COME TRUE. Having arrived in the Ionian Islands
for our usual island hopping adventure. We unexpectedly ended
up chartering "Olive". We had a brilliant week on a first class
Yacht. We cannot speak highly enough of Laurie and all his team.
Thank you and see you next year". - Malcolm and Karen Norris
(Olive - Bavaria 36 - June 07)
"The boat was immaculate in every respect. The assistance
from Laurie and Co. was superb - this included coming out to meet
us at sea in the rib to take our car keys so he could re-park
our car. We had forgotten to move the car from the quay to the
car park before setting off!" - Clive Telford
(Melissa - Bavaria 42 - May 2007)
"The trip was absolutely perfect.
Gabriella was the perfect boat for us and we couldn’t have
had a better time.. Not many people, quiet bays and quays, very
nice weather and no heavy winds to scare us off, really it was
more than we possibley could have imagined. Thank you very much
for the excellent service of you, Laurie & his team. I felt
safe to know that the team were on standby if we had any problems..
Les is the best skipper Patricia and I could have hoped for: a
good teacher and a pleasure to have him on board. I think you
run your business in a very friendly and sailor like way, I felt
completely at ease with all my questions."
- Douwe Wielinga (Holland - Gabriella - April 2007)
"I just wanted to thank you for our stay in Villa Nisos.
We had the most wonderful time. The villa is absolutely beautiful
and the views stunning! Everything worked so well, from the
moment we arrived. Maria , Steve and Sally couldn't have been
more helpful. Even our flight being delayed on the way home wasn't
a problem as we just spent a few hours in the taverna opposite
the airport. We would love to do the trip again sometime and hopefully
combine it with a week sailing (we had a look around your boats
before we left , they looked fantastic)." - Chris Taylor
(Villa Nisos September 2006)
"We lost the prop and even though we were at the far
end of the Ionian Islands (Zante) Laurie had arrived and fitted
a new prop within a couple of hours (a 2.5 hour journey in the
RIB) . His quick diagnosis and refit allowed us to continue our
holiday without any disruption. The team all reacted with good
humour and efficiency and we never felt that our enjoyment of
our holiday was impaired". Sue and Phil Harrild (Little Gem
September 2006 - Honeymoon!)
"The boat was perfect. Plus point was the wind meter
and the automatic pilot, this was great, and not something we
usually get on a charter boat." - Jolanda Prins, Holland
(Little Gem June 06)
"Dave Hodge the skipper, was excellent. We had doubts
about how a stranger would fit in with our holiday, especially
in the close company of a boat, but Dave's relaxed and obliging
attitude worked out just fine. His knowledge of the area, ports
and tavernas was excellent. Shame he did not catch us any fish
though!" - Jerry Horton and family (Papillon June 06)
"I wanted to email to say thank you for all your help
organising our summer holiday on Olive (18-22 June). It was our
second time with NISOS and Olive and there was always the worry
that it wouldn't be as good as last year, however, it was everything
we hoped for and better. Can you please pass on our gratitude
to Laurie and Kate who were ever the perfect hosts with words
of wisdom on how our forth coming baby could be accommodated on
the yachts. I have attached a couple of photos for your website
and look forward to getting in touch again soon to organise another
fab holiday." - Mark Jones - (Olive June 06)
"Cloud Nine was spotless and in exceptionally good condition
for one on its fourth season. The on-site team service level was
above both Sunsail and the Moorings standards, both of which I
have found good in the past.....so Nisos have to be rated as excellent."
- Fin O'Leary (Cloud Nine June 06)
"Having not chartered a boat previously, we didn't know
what to expect. We were very pleasantly surprised with Good News.
In all, it could not have been better! We required assistance
only once. Laurie and the team could not have been more helpful.
They appeared in the RIB very quickly, and left us feeling that
we weren't the complete fools I thought we were!" - John
Shallcross (Good News June 06)
"Booking through Nisos in the UK via email was efficient,punctual,friendly
and allways asap. Laurie is a highly efficient and friendly person.His
wife, Kate seems to be a dynamo as well.She has Irish eyes and
a smile from here to Table Mountain. Rowan the whole Nisos team
at Perigalia seem to operate like a family of friends. If we ever
repeated such a holiday I would book with Nisos. I have already
referred two clients to your website.The reason why I initially
decided on Nisos was the prompt reply to my enquiery and the website.
I also like to use smaller companies because it normally means
more personal services.This was definitely what we got!!! "
- Ian Muller, South Africa (Numero Uno June 06)
"The boat was perfect. Plus point was the wind meter
and the automatic pilot, this was great." - Jolanda Prinns
(Little Gem June 2006)
"Both during booking and on arrival we were made to feel
welcome and treated with respect. This is my view is a big difference
between what Nisos and the large faceless corporates can offer.
The quality and condition of the boat was far superior to what
we could see other holidaymakers had on charter at various ports
- Catriona says it is her best holiday ever!" - Alexander
and Catriona Walsh, Northern Ireland (Rainbow - Elan 31 - June
06)
"No assistance was required, but the professionalism
and the friendliness of the base staff cannot go unmentioned"
- Steve Taylor (Realt na Mara May 06)
"Just a quick note to say thank you so much for a brilliant
week on Realt na Mara. The boat and all its kit were absolutely
spot-on, the Ionian was as delightful as ever, and our friends
- who had never sailed before - loved the whole experience." -
Mr and Mrs Scott (Realt na Mara Sept 05)
" Hi Rowan, We thought we would drop you a line or two
and some photos from our hols on Supernova. Considering that all
the arrangements were very much 'last minute' everything ran as
smoothly as clockwork. Our thanks to you and your team for all
your efforts, including Matt for the flights. Supernova was (as
always with your yachts) excellently prepared and presented. Sue,
my non-sailing partner, is now so hooked on cruising she can't
wait until the next time! I've attached a couple photos for you,
if you like any of them please feel free to use them on the website.
All the very best, Keith Straughton & Sue Palmer 'Supernova' May/June
06, 'Good News' 05, 04. "
"Our first charter - the boat was excellent." - J.McDonald
(Thalia 04)
"Nisos was an experience we loved, so keep up the good
work. Please pass on our thanks to all the Nisos team for
making it a great holiday." - J&D Easton (Cloud Nine
04)
"We are over the moon with you all. Thank you for
everything. We had a wonderful time. You definitely have
future custom from us and we will definately keep on
promoting you as the best company. As far as we are
concerned, the sun shines out of your bum!" - R.Eglin
(Good News 04)
An excellent holiday. Thanks very much - B.Capper
(Good News 04)
"It was a last minute arrangement. We spoke with Rowan
and we appreciated his flexibility" - R&J Jannsen
(Little Gem 04)
"Booking was easy and efficient, Laurie and the base
staff were excellent, very pleasant and helpful." -
D.Graham (Grace of Lefkas 04)
"Even better than expectations as we were upgraded
from a Bavaria 38 to a Bavaria 44! With a cabin each and
two heads what more could we want!? - P. Holmes (Cloud
Nine 04)
"Impressed by Nisos' ability to deal with the
unexpected (broken anchor) but even more so with picking
up small things eg bringing newbread knife with anchor!"
- J. Wright (Gabriella 04)
"Quote from Hilary and Tensing on summiting Everest
and eating Kendal Mint Cake "We sat on the summit of the
world and nibbled on our mintcake - our only complaint,
there was not enough of it. Same for Nisos. Not enough of
it. Would gladly recommend and have done" - T. Allcock
(Little Gem 04)
"Friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and flexible when
the number of crew changed several times. Willing to make
a real effort to ensure customer satisfaction. Went out
of his way and could possibly not have done more for us.
We broke the saloon table on day 1 on Papillon. Laurie
was with us within 15 minutes with everything required to
mend it. Superb. Also at the end of the phone when we
called for weather reports. Horizontal Nick is a gem. A
bosun who quotes Keats is something to be treasured. We
would absolutely, definatley, without a doubt book with
Nisos again." - L.Green (Papillon 04)
"A wonderful holiday, brilliant weather and sailing conditions,
the yacht was great and we'd definitely book again." - Mr
J. Turner, London (Supernova 04)
