“We are very excited to be awarded this designation after just four years of delivering our first charter. Having a commitment to deliver an exceptional charter experience to every guest not only with our award-winning innovative yachts, but also with our personal service to every guest has been our driving force since inception.” said Raul Bermudez, Vice President of MarineMax Vacations. “We are not the oldest or the largest charter company in the BVI, so it is a tremendous honour to be recognized as the BEST BVI Charter Yacht Company this year among the respected companies we were up against.”

The 2015 Awards is the 5th Annual Virgin Island Property & Yacht Reader’s Choice Awards and generated record-setting numbers this year. “The popularity of this year’s Readers’ Choice Awards is a reflection of the extensive reach, engagement and response that the magazine generates. The voting numbers were staggering,” said Erin Paviour-Smith, Account Manager for Virgin Islands Property & Yacht.
