Dear Captain Stathis & Joanna,
Thank you for the most magical week, you could not have been kinder and more attentive. We loved every day of our trip and are sad to see it end.
The beautiful swimming spots, getting to know beautiful islands and towns, the people of Greece and the FOOD, the FOOD, the FOOD! We almost had to roll back home.
We are very sad the trip has come to it's end. It was so wonderful to be able to spend time as a family, under your care.
We are already dreaming of our next trip.
Sail safe, until we meet again.
Love,
Anna , Al, Chema Jose and Danny

This week has been about so many dreams come true! Sailing Greece with my amazing family was made brilliant every day,thanks to Stathis & Ioanna. This 'dynamic duo' made every day memorable, marvellous and fun. The hospitality was detailed and thoughtful, the food delicious, comfortable beds and spectacular scenery and swimming.
Thank you for showing gorgeous Greece with us.

Dear Captain Stathis and Ioanna,
Seven days, seven nights upon the sea with Captain Stathis steering skillfully. Through Hydra's charm and Aegina' grace, he found each perfect anchoring place. The sails went up with morning light, a glorious and stirring sight, while turquoise, blue and emerald waves, danced around our island days.
Sweet Ioanna, angel of the gallery, fed us fetta by the alley. Breakfast fit for gods on high beneath the endless Grecian sky.
We paddleboarded, swam and played, with seabob adventures daily, made for Poros shares to Dokos Bay, to Moni's peaceful hidden way. Thtough Chenesar's waters crystal clear, Captain's parking skill, we cheer! No dock too tight, no cove too small, he mastered evey mooring call. Greek hospitality wrapped us tight. In cuisine dreams and starlight night.
Dear Stathis and Ioanna true, our Saronic magic came from you.

Dear Stathis and Joanna,
We shared a wonderful, unforgettable experience on board of the Zalina last week together and thanks to you!
For the kids Arthur (10), Caroline (15) and Josephine (17), it was the first trip on a sailing boat. Stathis made it always fun for them, preparing all the toys , Sup , e-surfboard, floatable seat, from the moment we arrived and anchored.
Stathis showed us incredible beautiful hidden bays to swim and seen overnight. We were really impressed and defintely want to see more of Greece.
Stathis choose the trip carefully to avoid sea sickness , but at the same time , made sure that we had some very nice sailing distance. It helped me relax completely.
Our hostess Joanna prepared for us 3 five star (5*) meals daily, always with a nice Greece taste and a big selection. Even for a healthy Belgian family it was often too much to finish all, despite of the delicious taste!
Joanna was a lovely , friendly , smiley and above all , attent hostess, always ready with drinks , bites and a lots of healthy fruit.
We are going to miss her hospitality!
Thank you for ZALINA, Stathis and Joanna for bringing us these everlasting beautiful memories!
Love Isabelle

We had a wonderful 7-night trip aboard Zalina and thoroughly enjoyed every moment. Captain Stathis and Ioanna provided exceptional hospitality and service throughout our journey - they were thoughtful, attentive and constantly went the extra mile to ensure we are comfortable, safe, well-fed and truly enjoying our vacation.
Captain Stathis is a terrific captain; he made great recommendations for destinations and ensured we visited all the places we had hoped to see, while also introducing us to some hidden gems we wouldn't have discovered on our own.
Ioanna's cooking was absolutely superb, and her care was flawless - like a true Greek Mom she made sure we were always looked after and never went without.
We absolutely loved our trip and can't wait to come back, next time with our kids!!!
Thank you for all the memories!!
