Real feedback from real guests — bareboat charters across the Whitsundays. From first-timers to guests on their tenth charter, here's what people say about sailing with Cumberland Charter Yachts.
We hired the power catamaran, Saltar, for 5 nights cruising around the Whitsundays with friends and our girls (group of 6). Last minute, decided to elope!
Rachel was absolutely amazing and so helpful. From me initially reaching out not knowing the area or even anything about boats, she was so helpful and made brilliant recommendations to ensure it was stress-free and not a logistical nightmare. Rachel's assistance was so appreciated and out of her job description, which we'll always be grateful for.
Thank you team — not only was Rachel amazing, everyone we dealt with from the team was fantastic. A great team makes all the difference. We definitely recommend booking through you for unforgettable and personal holidays.
Our third time chartering with CCY, and it won't be our last. We had a magical 6 days on board Skedaddle. We were welcomed by Rebecca, who'd helped with some last minute changes that really made for a seamless trip.
We made the clever decision to use Whitsundays Provisioning and all up we barely lifted a finger. With two young boys (10 and 6) we wanted to focus on our adventure and Jo our briefer the following morning walked us through some of the basics and helped us plan an idyllic week.
The family just had the perfect time — diving with massive Maori Wrasse in Manta Ray Bay, having Border Island and Cateran Bay all to ourselves, and a massive resident turtle visiting us at Chalkies Beach two days in a row. Can't wait to get back.
Best holiday ever — 14 nights on Girasol, our 3rd trip with Cumberland and always 100% given from the office staff to the boat staff. Special mention to Cam for a great briefing and to Matt and Uli for our debrief — everyone so friendly and making us feel special with no questions too silly to ask!
Hope you enjoy our leftover fish — we had the best fishing ever, even catching a 160cm kingfish. Sorry, no beer left over!
We have been coming back to Cumberland Charter Yachts for annual holidays for 14 years. The staff are fantastic — very knowledgeable and helpful in every way, even Robbie helping us with our gear onto the boat!
The boats are beautifully maintained. Each time we come we learn and see different aspects of the magnificent Whitsundays — snorkelling to hiking the wonderful trails. Such a good family recharge holiday. I think it is an experience that anyone who enjoys the water and beauty can enjoy. You don't even need to know how to sail, the fantastic staff can teach you.
