Lagoon 56ft - 2016

A3

Yacht description

When you first step onboard this luxury 56ft Lagoon catamaran A3, you will be super impressed by the panoramic windows, allowing you an unobstructed views of the tranquil bays and white sandy beaches of the BVI. Because the windows are upright as opposed to the normal slanted ones, the saloon area stays a lot cooler. The salon has comfortable seating that can accommodate a dinner for 10 or one person having a quick afternoon nap!

There are 3 spacious queen sized cabins and a guest cabin with bunk beds. The aft guests’ cabins are most comfortable, and whilst airy, each has their own air-conditioning controls for temperature control. Outside there is a large cockpit with easy water access from the stern. Up forward there is the usual trampolines, but this time they have added an awning so you can really enjoy the cool breeze whilst relaxing and not worry about burning.

Our personal opinion

Why book A3? – DIVING – This is a fantastic dive boat and first dive is included in the weekly rates. Add to this a great selection of water toys, gourmet food and a really fun crew and there’s a perfect week!

  • Dear Colleen & Matt,
    This was truly one of the best vacations me & David have ever had. It was such a treat to be wined and dined daily. The food & drinks were amazing. I love trying new dishes and you did not disappoint. It was so nice to have someone else plan our daily activities. Everything we did was so much fun! I will remember this trip forever.

    Thanks for accommodating my dislike of fish. Your substituting was perfect. Will miss you Guys!

    Thanks for a great week – lots of adventure… Awesome! Appreciate all the love that went into our experience and the wonderful adventures and food! See you again

    Typical for the weather, the wind was on the nose as we made our way east along the north side of St Thomas and St. John and was then non-existent as we sailed/motored west towards the end of the week. Oh well, thank God for engines. I did get to drive the boat some so I was very happy. We had a night sail/motor as well on a great evening. Could not have been better.

  • The best trip ever, saw the most beautiful beaches, landscape, fish & coral. The best food & meals from Chef Matt & the awesome Captain Colleen.

    Colleen and Matt must be the best BVI offers, knowledgeable, safety, conscious and fun! Thank you so much for this land lover having one of the best lifetime experiences!

    Colleen & Matt:
    Thank you for a totally first-class experience! I thought it might be hard to replicate the magic we felt on our first charter, but you two exceeded our highest expectations! Keep the island just like they are now until we return for our next trip! We will hopefully see you again soon! Good luck with that new house!
    Bim and Cathy

  • Matt and Colleen,
    This trip was truly amazing. We didn’t really realize what amazing things and places that we would see. Russ and I have a new appreciation for sailing.

    Matt, we can never repay you enough for giving Russ and I the open water ad a whole new would under the sea.

    Out high was diving!! Our low was the full moon party. Totally overserved, my own fault.

    You have both provided us memories we will never forget.

    You are amazing. Thank you so much!
    Russ & Chaise

    Love you

    Matt & Colleen

You both are Gems and we wish you both the very best in your beautiful life together. Don’t forget us and we will never forget you all!

    Keep on being Amazing!

    Thanks from the bottom of our hearts! Ditto!!!
