After such a great experience with Filip as our skipper last year, we were delighted to sail with him again this year aboard the catamaran *Reality* (Lagoon 51), chartered from Nava. Once again, he exceeded our expectations and helped make it a truly memorable holiday.
The entire experience, from booking to check-out, was smooth and hassle-free. Communication with Nava was excellent throughout, and everything was well organized. The boat itself was in great condition, comfortable, and perfectly suited for a fantastic week of sailing.
As for Filip, he is everything you could hope for in a skipper — highly experienced, professional, reliable, and simply a pleasure to spend time with. From the moment we stepped on board, we felt relaxed and knew we were in good hands.
The route was thoughtfully planned, taking us to beautiful bays, crystal-clear swimming spots, and some wonderful local restaurants that we would never have discovered on our own. Filip's local knowledge really added something special to the trip.
We also appreciated how he handled the occasional less-than-perfect weather. He always had a good alternative plan and made sure we still got the most out of our week. No matter the circumstances, it was clear that he was focused on giving us the best possible experience.
What really stood out was how much he genuinely cared about the people on board. Throughout the week, Filip consistently went above and beyond to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves. Whether it was adjusting plans, sharing recommendations, helping wherever needed, or simply creating a great atmosphere, nothing ever seemed like too much trouble.
By the end of the week, it felt like we were saying goodbye not only to an excellent skipper but also to a friend. A large part of what made this holiday so special was Filip, and we would not hesitate to sail with him again for a third time.
A huge thank you to Filip and the Nava team for another wonderful sailing holiday. We can wholeheartedly recommend both the skipper and the charter company.
