Zara and Tim,

Thank you for everything! You have made both of our trips with you above and beyond our expectations! We feel like you’re a part of our Tennessee and Florida family!
Every experience from Willie T’s, to the bubbly pool, our favorite Anegada experiences were amazing! The food…OMG! The food, drinks, and fellowship was wonderful!
From what we thought would be a once in a lifetime trip is now an annual event. The two of you truly have a gift of making us all feel and experience the Bvi‘s in the most fun and beautiful way with all the fun packed in as well! We love and appreciate you so much!
PS thanks for introducing Casey to food!

Zara and Tim,
Than you for allowing us to be your first Ladies Only Boat! When you can keep eight ladies happy for five nights you are obviously special people. Every meal was better than the next time and we knew it was gonna be a fun time and we walked onto the boat to a bottle of Veuve! Not only did you never judge us but you always helped us take whatever idea we had (neon parties, Pirate night) to the next level. You made the birthday girl feel so special while also catering the trip of a lifetime for everyone on board. We will think of you every time we have hood rat ratchet hour! Let me ride that dinghy dinghy!!
Love you both, Erin

Zara and Tim,
What an amazing week this was celebrating our friend Lauren‘s birthday! I can’t thank you enough for all that you did and making this trip perfect. You both went above and beyond and exceeded all of her expectations. Besides being great hosts you were so much fun to hang out with and we’re always up for anything. From Willy T’s to the full moon party I loved every minute. I hope we can all do this again and have y’all as our crew!

Zara and Tim,
You guys are the best! We knew this would be a great trip, but the two of you made it amazing. You took us to places we won’t forget, the food wasn’t fantastic, and we had so much and we had so much fun hanging out with you. We will always be thankful that you made our friends birthday trip unforgettable. And we know you won’t have dance parties like ours again. Good luck with the new boat and if you’re ever in North Carolina come see us!

It was amazing!! Tim and Zara are the most gracious hosts! We had so much fun with them! The boat was beautiful! You could tell they took pride in their work! Zara is an amazing cook- Tim made a few yummy things as well! Tim had great knowledge of local things. Took us to the “popular “ places but took us to places we didn’t know about and we had some great adventures! I couldn’t recommend this trip enough- especially with Tim and Zara!!

Zara and Tim,
We cannot thank you enough for the amazing time! From the moment we stepped on board we felt completely at home. You both are so warm and gracious. Your attention to detail is outstanding. Our every want and need was anticipated.
We will never forget all the different sites, activities and excursions you planned for us. We would have a difficult time picking a favorite. Each day was better than the last and the meals were so delicious that many nights we chose to eat on board rather than venture out. When we did go dine on land your recommendations were just right!
We hope to see you back in the states- you are welcome at our home anytime!

How can we begin to thank you for the incredible week we’ve gotten to spend on your incredible boat?! We will cherish every memory. The fishing, the snorkeling, the hiking and all the laughs! You offered unparalleled hospitality and treated us like family.
Thank you for curating the best stops, incredible meals, perfect cocktails, fantastic conversation but most of all for putting up with the Thornton family chaos and shenanigans! We miss you already! If you ever need a Texas ranch fix we’re a call away!

Dear Tim and Zara,
Thank you for making my last break for a while so magical! Thank you for the rare opportunities (like water skiing and knee boarding) that even if we drove you crazy you still let us keep trying until we got it. The food was absolutely incredible along with the visual. You guys are so amazing and I will miss you both endlessly. Zara, thank you for letting me cook with you and showing me the behind the scenes in the kitchen. Tim, thank you for putting up with my stubbornness when I was attempting to waterski and then hyping me up when I went knee boarding. I would also like to thank you guys for teaching me how to sail, maneuver a boat as well as how to tie them off. I couldn’t ask for a better crew to spend my vacation with! I wish you the best and I hope to see you guys again some day!
