Overall rating
Michel is a great sailor who really likes to do it. He is also a very pleasant person and have a lot of subjects to talk about. Also the boat, Océane is very well maintained and is very good on sea.
Michel was a most gracious host and very accommodating. We had a terrific time and Michel had great suggestions on where to go for a swim, visiting the lagoon as well as an excellent underwater sculpture garden, also arranging for us to be in the best position to view the Classic Regatta. Would highly recommend Michel and his Oceane ~40 ft Beneteau, fully outfitted. Our first day was on some rough waters, but Michel gave us a smooth sailing experience.
Michel is a super host and skipper! The boat is very nice and with all comfort needed! We did a full day cruise and it was perfect. He also used a lot the sails thanks to the favorable winds and it was an awesome experience!
Our group of 5 (4 adults/1 child) thoroughly enjoyed our day with Michel! He was extremely accommodating and made sure everyone in our group had a great time. 10/10 recommend a trip with Michel if you have the chance!
We had such a fantastic day on Michels boat!! He was such a lovely and accommodating host and was really knowledgeable about the boat and the area. Would highly reccomend to anyone. Thank you Michel!!
Really nice day out with Michel. Lovely host and boat.
Everything was perfect and we had the most fabulous day .Micheal could not have been more accomadating and there was 10 people to look after.We had The Royal Regatta going on in Cannes and it was fabulous to see the sail boats from 150ft to 10ft out there enjoying the day.Highly recommend the day
We had a wonderful day out with Michel! He was delightful and took us to stunning stops along the coast. We would definitely recommend.
We had a wonderful 2 days and one night on michel’s beautiful sailboat! We could not have asked for a better way to spend time in France or a more charming host! We swam, sailed, relaxed and enjoyed great conversations! Thank you so much for sharing your home with us and your passion for sailing! We share that passion as well! Can’t wait to return another year! Katie, Glenn and Sarah (Seattle, WA, USA)
Nice boat and skipper, highly recommended. 😊
We were a group of 8 ranging from age 30-70s. Absolutely amazing experience sailing with Michel. Flexible and very enjoyable to spend the day with. Despite some very large waves due to unforeseen winds to start the day Michel came up with an alternative plan very quickly and still managed to get us back to our original plan before the day ended. Thank you for the coffee and sharing your pastis! Would 100% book again without looking at other boats.
A very Nice day with Michel. Relax. Good conversations. No stress. Open For all suggestions. We do recommand Michels boat and compagnie.
Top day with Michel. Our parents loved their surprise trip ;-) Would def. hire Michel again.
This was one of the best parts of our holiday. Michel was an amazing host and guide. We had such a wonderful day, with many laughs and we saw many amazing things. When we left for the day, we felt as if they were part of our family. The next time we are in the cote d'azur we are definitely sailing again with Michel. He is an excellent captain and his boat is beautiful!
What a great day. Michel was a pleasure to spend the day with. He is a genuine nice man who could not have been more accommodating. What a way to spend my 55th Birthday. Thank you Michel
Had really great experience with Michel! He was very welcoming and friendly!
Michel and his wife were great hosts! We stayed on shore, but had the boat at our diposal for two daytime excursions around the Cannes / Antibes / Lerins Islands area. The boat comfortably fit our group of 7.
Excellent weekend with Michel!!
Michel is a more than pleasant host He is available while remaining discreet He made our day a real moment of relaxation I highly recommend
Michel was exceptional. Attentive, precise, discreet, kind, professional. I did 2 days with my wife and two small children and we appreciated the boat and Michel's service. The boat is in excellent condition and is equipped with all the comforts for cruising, small excursions, bathrooms. We immediately got on well with Michel who managed the relationships very well as the management and management of the boat.
Thank you Michel for this wonderful day! Thank you for your welcome and your kindness!
Michel is very friendly and an excellent (and patient) instructor! He took advantage of the changeable weather and gave us some great days on board. We couldn't have hoped for better. Thank you Michel! (Oceane is also very well equipped).
Michel offered us an unforgettable trip on his magnificent yacht around the Lérins Islands. Michel was a very hospitable and welcoming host, we always felt his attention and desire for our day on his yacht to be great. Michel showed us beautiful and interesting places, as well as the most suitable lagoons for swimming. Following Michel's advice, we explored the underwater sculpture garden behind Sainte-Marguerite Island and admired the monastery on Saint-Honoré Island. The movement of the boat under sail was the most vivid impression of our trip. The gentle rocking of a boat sailing the open seas under sail, when there is no sound of the engine, but only the quiet rustling of waves, the creaking of wind-filled sails and the occasional cry of seagulls. We enjoyed a magnificent sunset over the sea. Oceania is a very beautiful yacht and with her red and white sail unfurled she is absolutely stunning. We are very grateful to Michel and hope to repeat our trip next year.
We opted for 3 days to discover sailing. Michel welcomed us aboard his superb boat. A whole person, pleasant, attentive.... he introduced us to sailing, the sea, the small coves,.... 3 heavenly days.
Michel welcomed us, my wife, me and our three children from 7 to 12 years old in an exceptional way. We spent 7 dream days, each of these 7 days in the Mediterranean was delicious. He was very attentive to our needs, navigation in particular, but for everything else too, very friendly, very accommodating. I really appreciated his pedagogical sense for navigation, with each of us, which was very educational. He knows the area perfectly, which greatly facilitates things during peak tourist periods. I must also say that I was impressed by the comfort of his Oceanis 40. In short, an extraordinary week for each of us 5 that we will never forget.
Excellent day with Michel, very friendly and experienced. Very comfortable, spacious and modern boat. Thank you for this great moment
Thank you Michael! We had a great day at the Lerins Islands. We recommend you !
My wife and I are planning to purchase a similar boat. We therefore decided to share Michel's boat for 2 days, in order to get back into the boat of navigation on smaller sailboats and to assess the handling of a 12-meter boat. We weren't disappointed: Michel coached us with patience, to steer, change tack, take in a reef, and anchor! We were able to learn more about this boat, and appreciated his expert advice on technical options and maintenance costs. In addition, Michel is very nice and friendly, and the king of sausage for the aperitif! ? To renew for us and we highly recommend it!
A beautiful moment with Michel, friendly, patient and pedagogue with the children.
We had a great day, Michel is a passionate person, pedagogue and shared his passion with us, we will do it again without any hesitation!
We had a wonderful family day sailing with Michel. It was also a beautiful day of sailing, to steer and maneuver, thanks to Michel's teaching skills. Thank you Michel for this great time, to do it again :-)
Just awesome ! We rented OCEANIS 40 for a birthday day, we were not disappointed !! Michel is a passionate person, very friendly, who likes to share his passion and take care of the people on board :) As soon as we feel like going offshore, we will call on him!
Wonderful day of navigation with Michel who knew how to transmit and share his passion for the sea with kindness and generosity.
Michel is an experienced and very friendly sailor. He is attentive to his team members and knows how to adapt to their requests. I recommend.
If you want to go to sea on a comfortable, safe and well-maintained cruising sailboat, do not hesitate any longer ... especially since the skipper Michel (very experienced) will take you where you want in complete safety and will make you participate in the navigation. Thank you very much Michel for this extraordinary weekend in the joy and good humor. Thank you for your kindness and kindness. I am ready to leave with you (in summer) and take my friends safely !!
We had a great day with Michel. Michel is a really nice person with conversation and very pleasant. It adapts perfectly to the people on board. We really enjoyed our getaway in his company. See you soon Michel
Very good stay, 1st sailing cruise. Michel shares his passion and is very attentive to passenger comfort !!!
Excellent day. Michel, the owner of the boat we sailed with, is attentive, helpful, accommodating and he knows how to take care of his passengers. We highly recommend it. A big thank you for this delicious day.
An exceptional day with Michel who is a very nice and welcoming person. The boat is at the top. Thank you again to you Michel and see you soon for having another great day. ?
Thanks a lot to Michelle for such a wonderful day that we spent on his yacht. We could only dream of such a warm welcome. We felt as if we had known him for a long time.
