We had the best time on our trip! David and Heather were such gracious hosts! The boys loved the endless supply of Shirley Temples and we were amazed at what Heather was able to create in the kitchen. Our favorite memory will be the tour of Necker Island, but a close second was snorkeling the reef off Anegada. We'll hold this trip close to our hearts for a very, very long time Brennan, Natalie, Dane and Cole P.S. Please let us know when you publish the Stella Blue cookbook!

Heather and David, we had the most magical time on our trip thanks to you. The food on and and off boat was amazing. The excursions, the water activities and learning about sailing were moments we will ever forget. Swimming with the turtles was the most incredible time, and we will never forget this trip of a lifetime. The deckhand was absolutely STELLAR! We can't wait to come back and are thankful to have made new friends. Thank you, Caityn + Derek
