Guest Testimonials
Charter from August 22 to 29, 2026 in Sicily – A group of 4 from Florida
Dear Melissa and Francesco,
Thank you so much for a great time. The trip was memorable and your warmth made it special.
From the Casa Cipriani, style meals to laughter, music and moments we snacked.
We feel happy to have shared our first visit to Sicily aboard Ombre Blu3 with you both and te wobderful amazing crew.
Thank you for making us feel so welcome.
We’ll always remember Sicily and you guys !
With Love, K & A
CHARTER from August 9 to 16, 2026 in Sicily – Italian group of 6
We have just spent an absolutely unforgettable week aboard OMBRE BLU³, cruising through the Aeolian Islands, and it is difficult to imagine how the experience could have been any better.
The yacht is beautiful, spacious and extremely comfortable, but what truly made this holiday exceptional was the extraordinary crew.
Francesco and Melissa were simply incredible. From the very first moment, they made us feel completely at home and took care of every detail with warmth, professionalism and genuine passion.
Francesco is not only an exceptional captain but also an amazing chef. Every lunch and dinner was something to look forward to: fresh ingredients, wonderful Mediterranean flavours and beautifully prepared dishes. It was like having an excellent Italian restaurant travelling with us from island to island!
And every morning Melissa surprised us with her fantastic homemade cakes, pastries and other treats for breakfast. Waking up on a beautiful bay in the Aeolian Islands and finding one of Melissa’s freshly baked creations waiting for us became one of the pleasures of the holiday.
Their incredible knowledge of the Aeolian Islands was another huge part of the experience. They knew exactly where to take us, from beautiful secluded bays and swimming spots to the best places to visit and enjoy ashore. Thanks to them, we felt that we were discovering the very best of every island rather than simply following a standard itinerary.
A very special thank you also goes to Francesco for giving our sons the opportunity to experience their first scuba dive. Seeing their excitement afterwards was one of the highlights of the week and a memory they will certainly keep for a very long time.
Marlowe and Aileen were wonderful throughout the entire week — always kind, smiling, attentive and available whenever we needed anything. Nothing ever seemed to be too much trouble for any member of the crew.
It is difficult for us to imagine a better crew. Francesco, Melissa, Marlowe and Aileen didn’t simply provide an excellent service; they created an atmosphere that made us feel even better than at home.
We arrived as guests, but by the end of the week it felt much more personal than that.
A beautiful yacht, spectacular islands, wonderful food and, above all, four exceptional people.
We will never forget this fantastic week aboard OMBRE BLU³. Thank you, Francesco, Melissa, Marlowe and Aileen, for making it so special.

Charter on June 10-17, 2023 in Amalfi Coast - Group of 6 from Los Angeles
The charter was wonderful, boat and crew were excellent and the food was truly outstanding.
We did a circle of Procida, Ischia, Ventotene, Capri, Positano, and Sorrento.
My one regret is that we didn’t go further to the Pontine Islands to avoid the crowds (mostly American) but happy to see the Amalfi Coast from the comfort of a boat vs. crowded hotel.
You may be hearing from people in our party about another charter on OmbreBlu. And we may try it again in Sicily!
Thanks again to you for helping us make a fabulous trip!
Charter on May 20 - 27, 2023 in Sicily, group of 6 from Texas, USA

Dear Melissa, Francesco & Marlowe
We are a numerous group, but with you, all of our needs were satisfied. The tour was perfect and every island and every night at anchor couldn't have offered better sensations. Guaranteed fun! And top food! Thank you for having given us such a splendid vacation. Ps. More compliments, we forgot to say that the boat is so well looked after and maintained! GR
August 2020 – Aeolian Islands, Sicily – Swedish Guests (second trip on OMBRE BLU ³)
Dear Melissa & Francesco, Thank you for yet another absolutely unforgettable week in the mesmerizingly beautiful archipelago of the Eolian Islands. However, I must fault you. For one thing my waste line. Francesco’s cooking (and Mel’s Muffins! Darn those Muffins!) which we thought could not possibly get better. Was just simply divine. We would rather eat your cooking than in a 5-Star Restaurant ashore. But these trips are truly made special by you two. We are grateful to have been introduced to you and this lovely way of exploring beautiful places. You are very special, incredible even. The service, hospitality and atmosphere are honestly fantastic. Can’t wait for new adventures with you next year. xoxo D++++ Ps. Covid felt like a distant place with you all. On this amazing boat. We felt so safe and you were all so conscientious. Meanwhile, the pandemic rages in other places OMBRE BLU ³ was truly the sanctuary we all savely needed. D.C
July 2020 - Amalfi Coast - UK Guests
"Dear Melissa, Francesco and Marlowe,
We had an unforgettable journey on your beautiful boat. You have thought about every detail, from the elegant fabrics and timeless decor to lounging and seating for every occasion a sea and ashore. The food is delicious, perhaps too yummy, as we are all bursting out of our clothes. We loved exploring the coastline, swimming in the magical inviting waters, catching jellyfish, sailing, tasting new wines and local delicacies. You have given us a truly unique family holiday. Whether relaxing or active, we have loved our time aboard OMBRE BLU ³. From our hearts we thank you. Until our next excursion!"

July 2019 - Sardinia/Corsica - Repeat Guests from the USA - first time on the new and larger OMBRE BLU ³
Melissa, Francesco & Marlowe
Two words... perfect Trifecta!!! Three different locations, three different sets of friends and family on each charter but the one consistent item is the amazing, friendly, knowledgeable experience you provide every time! Your in-depth knowledge of each location enables us to experience all of the beauty of Italy (with no planning on our part :)) The Ombre Blu culinary experience is on par (or better than) many Michelin Star restaurants! We look forward to seeing that Cookbook someday! Thank you for helping us create more memories that will last a lifetime! Until the next time... With love Rosanne & Chris
