Our family of 5 had a lovely experience aboard the Lady Lynsey! Initially, I booked for my husband and me and then our adult daughters and 14 year old wanted to join. There was plenty of room for them and the crew made them feel quite welcomed. Dinner was great and the cruise to Christmas Cove was delightful. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know the crew and sharing stories about our adventures in St. Thomas/St. John. It was a delightful Christmas Eve, Eve. Thanks for a wonderful evening!

Having stayed at their sister property in Martha's Vineyard a few months earlier we had to come over for a meal while celebrating a return anniversary in St. Thomas. Everyone, from the ferry crew to the resort staff could not have been friendly and, more so, fully efficient and competent. Saturday nights the resort's upscale restaurant is closed and instead there is a much more casual offering. It is, however, no less terrific I'm certain and for our evening, just perfect. The evening was a very special one thanks to the associates and team members, chef especially.
