XANDROS - "The Defender of Mankind..." Xandros is first Lagoon SIXTY5 available for luxury charter vacation and the first of its kind to be present in and around North America.

The completely redesigned Flybridge area highlights the future of yachting and sailing onboard catamarans with full bar, dining area, lounges and dual helms. The Experience onboard Xandros is meant to be the perfect mix of Luxury and Modern Adventure. Three Crew are onboard to provide seamless service and guide the best vacation of your life. All of today's top technology accompanies the vessel including Dive equipment, Dive Compressor, Seabob's, E-foil, watersports equipment, floating lounge, huge tender and more. Come change your perspective with us on aboard Xandros... We're looking forward to your arrival. With its slender hulls and sculptural curves, the Lagoon SIXTY 5 has rightly earned its place in the world of luxury sailing yachts. The secret of its beauty lies in the sensual lines. They are an alliance of both tradition and modernity that orchestrate its generous proportions. On board the SIXTY 5, the flybridge is a key space that is accessed via wide, safe stairs. Electric sliding doors give the option of this space being fully enclosed as required. The SIXTY 5’s flybridge is a beautifully appointed deck with two helm stations. One on each side, for clean, unobstructed views. The rigid bimini is fitted with see-through glass. It allows the skipper to keep an eye on the sails when they are hoisted up. The flybridge is home to a huge, comfortable and sleek looking sofa. You will also find spacious storage lockers underneath the sofa and a reclining backrest. A large dining table and another wet bar with a plancha grill, fridge and cutlery lockers, complete the picture. When on board the Lagoon SIXTY 5, you can look straight through fore to aft and out over your surroundings with commanding 360° views. Her elegant interior is by Nauta Design, and demonstrates the new signature “Connect” outfit from Nauta. The main saloon is comfortable and luxurious with open spaces and natural light. The same design concept has been applied to the guest cabins. They enjoy good overhead height and excellent natural light and views. The high level of finishing throughout every cabin reflects the luxury feel of the main saloon. The bright and spacious saloon is located forward. It has a design palette that includes grey oak and beige upholstery for the sofas. A large dining table is positioned on the starboard side, with a u-shaped sofa and lounge area with a low coffee table on the port side. This first hull has a galley-down layout with four cabins. It delivers the massive main deck saloon space for guests to enjoy. From the saloon there is direct access to the foredeck terrace. This area offers features sofas, a coffee table and an optional canopy shade that can be installed on to stainless pillars. This space is also ideal for storing diving gear.

Christmas 2025 BVI Charter
We had had an absolute blast on Xandros! Everything was amazing! The weather, the boat, the food, and especially our awesome crew, Tyler, Rachel, and Cole. This was my first time on a boat like this and it did not disappoint. I would rank this as #1 for family trips!

November 2025 BVI Charter
Captain Tyler, Stew Rachel, and Chef Cole deliver a level of service that exceeds every expectation. They consistently anticipate our needs—before we even voice them—making the entire experience feel seamless and personalized.
Captain Tyler is an exemplary leader: calm, confident, and clearly highly qualified. His steady presence sets the tone for a stress free trip. Rachel ensures that everyone feels cared for at all times. Her professionalism, kindness, and instinct for guest comfort are top notch. And Chef Cole is, without question, the most talented chef we have encountered in our travels. Every meal is remarkable, both in flavor and presentation. (The lobster donuts are especially noteworthy!)
Their collective warmth, skill, and commitment to excellence made this charter truly exceptional. We would happily book with this crew again and will be recommending them enthusiastically.
Thank you for assembling such an outstanding team. They represent Xandros with distinction.

Past Reviews for Tyler, Cole, and Rachel
Tyler Armstrong – Captain
"Captain Ty was amazing! So knowledgeable about the area and made us feel completely safe. He even fixed our drone when it crashed on the beach! A great mix of professional and fun — couldn’t recommend him more!" - Charter guest, S/V Pelican
“Due to flight delays, we arrived after 9 pm to a beautifully set vessel. Ty and Claire work seamlessly together, are very professional yet personable and approachable. Both were very observant to our individual preferences, crafting the perfect meals and itinerary while still being

Cam, Jada & Sam,
What an amazing 7 days with you on Xandros! Words can't express how much we appreciate the 5-star level of service... and the FOOD! Every meal was like Christmas morning. Thanks for spoiling us and giving us a very special week. We can't wait to see what life has in store for you three. You are truly special!

Dear Cam, Jada & Sam,

"Wow! Where does one begin when asked to describe 'heaven on earth'? Pure bliss, unparalleled happiness, as close to perfection as a week can get.
Six of us had the great fortune of chartering Xandros for a full week - our "Melebration" - seven days celebrating the 50th birthday of my wife, Melody - the coolest lady on the planet (we all agreed that Jada was undoubtedly most people's obvious choice!)
We came in search of beautiful geography, hidden coves and memorable sunsets. What we got was so much more. While the locations in the BVIs are incomparable, it was Cam, Jada & Chef Sam who made this truly the trip of a lifetime.
Cap Cam - you deserve to be the star of the next Avengers team. A true to life modern day superhero. Is there nothing that you cannot do on the high seas? And a brilliant sense of humor to boot!
Ms. Jada - you are queen of hospitality, high princess of the BVIs. Your secret power seems to be the ability to read minds and anticipate the needs of everyone of your needy high maintenance guests (we like to think that we're so easy going, but I'm quite confident it's far from the truth). You do it all with true grace.
And Chef Sam - I'll put your masterful dishes up against any Michelin chef in the world (and let's see them do it solo in a galley kitchen with an induction stove!) Each dish inspiring mouthwatering awe and full of creative inspiration, unbelievable, incredible - pull out the thesaurus to describe your culinary skill & prowess.
And thanks to all for sharing your home with us. We hope that we were worthy & thankful guests.
May our paths cross again in the future. All the best & much love.

Cannot thank you guys enough for just a wonderful trip! Sam - your meals were incredible! Jada - your attention to detail and cocktails were so memorable!

"Dear Jada, Cam & Sam,
From the second we stepped on board, you have taken care of our every whim and exceeded all our expectations!
Jada - thank you for anticipating every need before we knew it. Your kind demeanor and warmth is so welcome.
Cam - thanks for a beautiful tour and your infinite patience with John and my limitations. Your willingness to teach and participate in our activities made it easy.
Sam - thanks for the fabulous food! And your adjusting to my personal needs. My only regret is that I now have to cook for myself.
In sum, this was truly "dolphins and rainbows". In other words - perfect."

You all are truly first class in all regards. Xandros and her special crew are incredible memories for this family.

Hope to run into you all again soon, if only someday in an airport.

Thank you so much for an amazing week! We had so much fun playing with the water toys, relaxing, learning to SCUBA, learning to E-foil and doing a little kiting. The food was amazing! You all took such good care of us all week and we really appreciated it. Thank you for pushing the adventurous side with cliff jumping etc.
Best Vacation Yet! We had so much fun jumping off the rock, playing with water toys, and over all getting to experience the beautiful BVI with you all! You made this trip to paradise so fun and easy!
Dear Mayon and Elizabeth,
Thank you for such a fantastic vacation. We really appreciate all that you did to make it special. From getting all the toys out and ready for us each day to finding steep runs and rocks that we could jump off of. From hanging in the dinghy in case the guys needed help kiteboarding, to teaching the kids the dice game and spike ball. From all the beautiful place settings to the cleaning/organizing fairy in our rooms each day. From the cocktail/mocktail queen to all the running around you did constantly to be sure we were taken care of. Thank you so much we wish you all the best in the future!
Sincerely,

Cam and Jada Past Reviews 2023
March 2023
"What an epic adventure on board. Our dashing, debonair Captain Cam... you navigated the swells to the outer reaches of Anegada and led us on every adventure we dreamed of, thanks to your seafaring expertise and island connections. You are the perfect combination of competence and charm. And oh my, Jada... you are the quintessential First Mate! With grace and graciousness you kept the boat in shipshape and served our every need before we even knew what we needed! Thank you for nourishing our bodies and souls with your amazing culinary creations. We knew our meals would be tasty, but yours far exceeded our expectations in every way... from the fresh herbs to the array of taste and table settings... such beautiful feasting and deliciousness."
April 2023
"Jada and Cam, sailing with you both and living together for a week was a wonderful and memorable experience that we will cherish throughout our lives. This was not my first rodeo chartering but the best itinerary, boat and crew by far. You guys made our week effortless, no worries, stress-free."
April 2023
"Cam & Jada, where do we even begin - this was a vacation of a lifetime with the hosts of a lifetime! No crumbs or bottle of red wine left behind. Your storytelling, hospitality and culinary skills were the cherries on top of this very special trip - these memories will forever be in our hearts."

Words don't suffice for the extreme thoughtfulness, delicious food, and stellar service. You have spoiled us this past week!
Elizabeth- the thoroughness and beauty of detail and perfection was beyond measure. Your talents are many and supreme.
Mayon-I'm so happy for you and Elizabeth! You are both so lucky and well rewarded. You are an amazing captain and have a great sense of humor-not to mention, weirdly capable of many sports and other activities.
Sam-It was an honor to celebrate your 27th with you and be fed by you-truly remarkable food-still don't know how you did it. We think you should have Elizabeth package your many delicious dips, sauces, etc!
The 3 of you-We are so very blessed to have had this trip with you. Every little thing, Every big thing, every everything was beyond all expectations!
Thank you and Merry Christmas
-The Ziegler Family
This was the most special and amazing adventure I'be ever been a part of. Mayon and Elizabeth you had the most positive, fun, and exciting attitudes. The people you are with can truly make the vacation 10x better than it could have been. Thank you to both of you for doing that for me. I feel like I really got to know the both of you.
Sam! King Sam, Samsquash- my guy! The best chef I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Thank you for the incredible food and fun times. Hope to connect in Nashville. I'm so grateful for this experience, and I 've built memories that will last a lifetime.
There's so much I can say about how incredible this trip has been, but words simply do not suffice. May, Liz, and Samsquash we are a wild crew lol. Anyway, Merry Christmas and thank you for the best gift I'll ever receive.

Dear Aeolus Crew,
Thank you so much for this week, I loved it! What I enjoyed most about you was you guys were always trying to make us happy and I LOVE your drinks, food, funniness and sailing abilities. Love you guys! Love, Brenna
Captain Mayon, this has been BY FAR the best vacation I have ever been on>. Everything about ti was new and adventurous! What I loved about you was YOUR HUMOR. I would have expected the captain to be uptight and closed off but you were the opposite. It made me laugh SO much when you saiD GARABAJE and BUH-REN-AH! Thank you for the amazing week and I hope to see you again!
Miss Elizabeth, I can’t physically process how this boat could manage without you. You do so much amazing work around here that I don’t even notice sometimes. I especially appreciated how you go with the flow so calmly and make the BEST DRINKS I have ever had. You are so kind and fill everyone around you with joy. Thanks for hosting us so well and I hope to see you around (plus a ring)!
Chef Sam, you are the most talented Chef I’ve ever met. I really enjoyed all the meals you made and how exotic the food was. I am bummed I didn’t get to know you as much because you were always cooking, but I enjoyed the amount of time we had on the beach. (I also liked having an audience for my sick burns). I experienced the coolest food every day this week so thanks and hope to see you soon!
Crew, Thanks so much for the amazing week! I have never experienced anything or one like this before but I loved it! Come visit when you’re in Georgia! - Ashlyn
Dear Aeolus Crew,
Thank you for all the hard work you guys have put into our stay! The scuba diving was incredible, the drinks were delicious, and the food-there are no words! This trip far exceeded my high exceptions thanks to all fo you! Thankfully, Marshall
Dear Mayon, Elizabeth & Sam,
You three made our trip SO memorable1. We knew it would be a good trip because it’s a catamaran and the Virgin Islands, but with you three, the trip was beyond our wildest expectations. Having to make 6 people happy is no small feat, but you guys did it like it was nothing. The way you served us, fed us, entertained us, but mostly were with us, that means the most. You three will always be our favorite crew ever! Come for a visit! -Trey & Amy
Mayon, Elizabeth & Sam,
You three have literally crafted the James Family’s #1 vacation. We surveyed the kids and there has been none better. You guys have blessed our family with your servant hears, your attention to details, and your overwhelming kindess. Thank you for sharing a week of your lives with us. We are better for it and we will remember you always. Much Love from -Trey, Amy, Marshall, Ashlyn, Scarlett, Brenna
