Fabulous! Thank you so much to Barbara and Gianluca for hosting us on their lovely cosy sailboat. Friendliness, efficiency, discretion, and very attentive to security, we had a wonderful time on board and the beach our captain chose was perfect. Recommend 100%!
Gianluca and Barbara were terrific hosts for our first sailing adventure as a family. They fulfilled any request and made us all feel right at home. We (including our 9 year old daughter) loved the meals prepared by Barbara. We were looking for some quiet time at sea for a few days and it’s exactly what we got. Thank you again Gianluca and Barbara!
Absolutely fantastic! Gianluca's friendly expertise, combined with Barbara's hospitality and delicious cooking, made us feel right at home on the water. A must-do experience for anyone looking for a memorable day on the water. Highly recommended, we had a blast!!!
My wife and I recently had the pleasure of renting a boat for the first time ever, and the experience surpassed our expectations. The skipper, Gianluca, and Barbara, were the epitome of hospitality. They were not just attentive but had an uncanny ability to anticipate our needs, sometimes even before we realized them ourselves. Their genuineness and warmth made it feel like we were in the company of old friends. The boat was in impeccable condition, reflecting the care and attention to detail that Gianluca and Barbara bring to their service. It's rare to find individuals who are not only good at what they do but also truly kind-hearted. A small word of advice to future renters – make sure to read the instructions thoroughly before embarking on your journey. We overlooked this step, but with Gianluca's expertise and willingness to help, everything was quickly sorted. In conclusion, our trip was filled with smiles, laughter, and unforgettable memories, largely due to the exceptional service from Gianluca and Barbara. We couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Gianluca & Barbara were fantastic hosts. What a beautiful boat. We felt welcomed like family. The whole day was relaxed and friendly. We will definitely go out with them again when we are next in Italy. Barbara prepared us a delicious lunch and Gianluca's knowledge of the area was a true education. The communication was excellent and the welcome was warm. Thanks 'Popeye' & 'Foreigner'. We will see you again!! 🥰🙋♀️🙋 Colleen & Mennolt
We had a great trip with Gianluca and Barbara! Very friendly and eager to make our trip as enjoyable as possible. Spoiled us with great homemade food where the tuna Gianluca caught himself was a highlight.
Thanks to Gianluca and Barbara's thoughtfulness and kindness, we spent eight wonderful days lulled by the sound of the waves and a relaxing rhythm. Gianluca spoiled us by catching fish, which Barbara expertly prepared, and they were both exceptional hosts at all times. We hope to share new adventures with them soon!
5-day mini cruise with the whole family (me, my wife and two girls aged 18 and 20) cheered by the attention and friendliness of Gianluca and Barbara; he, the commander, an expert skipper and very attentive to safety who dispenses many little secrets and anecdotes that make the time fly while sailing; she is nice, cheerful and an excellent cook who pampered us with her snacks, lunches and dinners even during the navigation, great!!! The cleanliness and order of the boat complete the excellent evaluation. We were also lucky enough to see dolphins during the navigation. Highly recommended!!!
We had a fantastic experience for a week on a boat with Gianluca and Barbara. He is a very good skipper, very experienced and competent, very attentive to both safety and comfort. Barbara is a very organised, elegant and creative woman, as well as an excellent cook. They both went out of their way to make our stay pleasant and were also very dedicated to the girls, transmitting their passions, not only for the sea, but also for art and cooking. We left thinking we would have a nice week on a boat, we left enriched by their stories and their life experience. Absolutely recommended.
First family experience (me, my husband and 2 girls aged 21 and 17) on a sailing boat. Thanks to the professionalism, availability and friendliness of Gianluca and Barbara we spent 3 pleasant days between Tuscany and Corsica learning the first rudiments of navigation. Both on the outward and return journey, we had the great gift of seeing the dolphins who "escorted" us while playing on the bow. The navigation was enlivened by the capture of a nice tuna (legendary commander Gianluca!!!) which at dinner, thanks to Barbara's expert culinary arts, satisfied our taste. We were pampered... Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Ani, Ali, Ale, Chicco.
We were on the boat for a week with 4 people. Gianluca and Barbara welcomed us into their home without making us miss anything. It was a unique and unforgettable experience, recommended to everyone.
We spent a wonderful day on the boat with my 3 and a half year old son and my husband. The boat is cared for in every detail, clean and comfortable. Gianluca and Barbara are very kind, professional and pleasant company. Highly recommended!
Wonderful first sailing experience! Our six year old daughter had a great time, as did we, carried away by the enthusiasm, competence, professionalism and friendliness of Barbara and Gianluca. Impeccable boat, excellent communication. Highly recommended?
Gianluca and Barbara were wonderful! Gianluca is a highly professional and attentive skipper. Great connoisseur of the sailing world. Barbara excellent cook and always smiling. I was with my son who was 100% involved by Gianluca! The shared bathroom, at first I was perplexed, actually didn't create any problems thanks to the very high attention to cleanliness by Gianluca and Barbara, which guests are invited to follow! We'll be back! Thank you!
Sailing with a sailboat is an indescribable experience, but having had the good fortune and the privilege of doing it with Gianluca and Barbara made it even more unique. With their experience and passion for the sea, they made us spend fantastic days that we will always carry in our hearts!
Gianluca and Barbara made us live a unique experience. They welcomed us with warmth and expertise and took us on a journey into the beauty of life on a boat. Despite some unforeseen events due to bad weather, they were really helpful in proposing alternatives. A special mention to Barbara's cooking and care and to the laughs that Gianluca made us have!
We spent some wonderful days aboard Jamboooh. Gianluca in addition to being an expert sailor was also a great teacher for me who am a novice enthusiast. Barbara is always attentive to the needs of the guests and a very good cook. The impeccably maintained boat is very comfortable and proved safe and fun while sailing. It was a wonderful experience that we recommend to everyone!

We and our 11 and 18 year old daughters spent 5 wonderful days aboard Jamboooh with Barbara and Gianluca. They were attentive, competent and always available guests. Good company, and discreet when needed. Barbara worked miracles with the galley, always offering delicious and varied dishes. Gianluca has always guaranteed safety and order on board, while satisfying all our requests. We recommend them with closed eyes to those who share their passion for sailing and beautiful boats.
A really good experience! Gianluca and Barbara are truly special people, who go out of their way to fulfill every wish and to leave a positive memory of the holiday. Barbara is an excellent cook and has also been able to satisfy some of our special requests / needs such as gluten-free cooking. Gianluca is much more than a skipper, he has a great deal of experience at sea and knows the details and curiosities of practically all the boats around the world. He will be able to teach you all the tricks of sailing and navigation, just show interest ;-)
Gianluca and Barbara welcomed us right away on Jamboooh as if we had been friends for a long time. First of all they explained the behaviors to be followed during navigation and made us view the entire boat. Once the formalities were over, our adventure began aboard this wonderful boat whose excellent sailing skills we could see in a bit of all situations. During the whole day Gianluca and Barbara pampered us not making us miss anything. While we were sailing it was pleasant to chat with both of us and learn the history and curiosities of the area that we saw. We have all been involved in the various operations necessary for navigation. It was our first sailing experience and thanks to their passion that has been passed on to us it will certainly not be the last with Jamboooh. Without a shadow of a doubt we can advise everyone to try to set sail on this wonderful sailing boat with Gianluca and Barbara.

Sono da sempre amante del mare e, fin dall'adolescenza, della navigazione a vela. Dal 2010 al 2015 ho vissuto quasi tutti i fine settimana a bordo della mia barca a vela e, dal 2016 ad oggi, ho deciso di vivere a tempo pieno a bordo. Vivere il mare in barca a vela è, per me, il modo più completo per sentirsi immersi nell'elemento. Ho comprato la mia prima barca a vela nel 2010: da quel momento ho cambiato stile di vita. Ho fatto diverse regate, anche se non mi definisco un "regatante". Sono esperto di manutenzione e conduzione della barca: questo mi ha portato a conseguire il brevetto di Istruttore Vela di Altura della Federazione Italiana Vela. Vorrei continuare a vivere il mare, condividendo la mia passione con altre persone, con l'intento di fargli vivere un'esperienza da ricordare positivamente.
