Yomira co-founder Neil Hornsby, has always been a fan of the Caribbean, particularly The Grenadines. “Ever since I was a youthful deckhand taking charter guests around the islands, I fell in love with the picture perfect ‘quintessential’ Caribbean with its fabulous beaches, plenty of space to escape the world and stunning waters to swim and snorkel. Apart from a few more beach clubs and exclusive resorts it’s still very laid back and unspoilt by and large, sailing through the islands on a gentle trade wind is close to perfection in my book.”
His last trip to the Caribbean was December 2024 when he and co-founder Amanda Armstrong, visited the Antigua Boat Show. Not only did they catch up with the Captains and crews but also visited the best luxury superyachts on display. Their top four favourites were the showstopper CC-SUMMER, which ranks in top 100 largest yachts in the world and comes with a superb spa, while its helipad transforms into an inflatable court complete with basketball hoop. Another favourite was the superbly styled and equipped MAVERICK from Mangusta as well as the beautifully designed NURI, whose award-winning chef was named “Top Chef of the Show” for the second year running. For more of a sailing experience the elegantly crafted catamaran VIVA LA VIDA is hard to beat and comes with a wide variety of water sports that are ideal for the Caribbean.

Another of their recommendations for anyone heading to Antiqua is the newly-opened The Hut Little Jumby, this private island beach club and restaurant is a must-visit for anyone in the area.
What also makes the Caribbean so special is that there is every type of superyacht experience available – whether with Family & Friends, taking time to relax the Mind, Body & Soul or simply exploring island life – Yomira’s combination of custom-tailoring and expertise in luxury superyacht charters creates itineraries with an exacting attention to detail, the highest levels personalisation and the all-important destination insight. All in all a perfect equation for a winter sun escape.
From now until April 2025 we have a great selection of available yachts and at some exceptional low season rates. There has never been a better time to go.
