CHILLIN HUT

About CHILLIN HUT

Best for: families and friend groups of up to nine, with couples seeking a social, activity-rich escape a close second.

CHILLIN HUT is a brand-new 2024 Bali Catamaran based in the US Virgin Islands, and her standout is the pairing of a genuinely accomplished captain with a dedicated yacht chef, both committed to making every day aboard feel effortless. Four queen cabins, each with a private ensuite, and a forepeak berth for a younger guest mean a group of nine can spread out without compromise.

Captain Raul brings seven years of blue-water experience across the Caribbean, French Polynesia, and Europe, balanced with a hospitality background that keeps the atmosphere relaxed and the itinerary well judged. Chef Katie delivers everything from elegant multi-course dinners to casual bites and creative cocktails, so guests rarely need to think beyond what they fancy next. On the water, a powerful nine-person tender, sea scooter, subwing, two paddleboards, a towable tube, and snorkel gear keep active groups busy from morning to sunset.

Luke & Kristen,

Thank you for a truly memorable trip. Your attention to detail and level of service were simply amazing. The itinerary you put together for us was incredible! A fantastic first sailboat charter and trip through the BVIs. We 'll be back! Kristen, your food was fantastic. Fresh and tasty every single meal! You are a genius in the kitchen and everything else you did, didn't go unnoticed. Luke, you are a great captain! We felt like we were in great hands all

week. Your table setting and bar tending skills were also great! Can't wait to get back to Peter Island, Cooper Island, The Baths, Bitter End, Anegada, Cane Bay, Jost, and Norman Island!

Kristen & Luke – Thank you for a fantastic week sailing about the BVI! Including making so many decisions for us.

☺ Every meal was fabulous (cookbook?). You both went above & beyond our expectations of/for this very special trip for us! Everyday felt so special as we celebrated our friendship. It's clear that you love what you do and that translates as an exceptional trip for all aboard. Thank you for answering all of our questions, we've learned so much. We couldn't have asked for a better trip and are thankful at least one Luke on board could captain our ship! 

Best, –Steph, Soph, Luke, Nithya & Michael

Kristen & Luke! 2/2026 It's hard to put into words how spectacular you made this adventure for us. We felt comfortable, safe & welcome from the moment we met you in person (and online). Your floating home became our home for the week! Each & every detail was well thought out & made us feel special.

Luke – your calm demeanor, knowledge & care for our safety was everything we could have asked for. And your sense of humor & mixology prowess never failed to impress! 

Kristen – Your mid-western hospitality, chef skills, kindness and creativity blew us away! At every turn.

Dear Luke & Kristen, Thank you so much for this incredible vacation that I will never forget. You guys always make sure that we had everything we needed and I am very grateful. Luke, I loved it when you took us out on the dinghy and played the music really loud. And Kristen, your meals were incredible! The whole trip after I ate your first meal I was looking forward to the food. You made me feel right at home when we were laughing together. Have a wonderful New Year and Merry Christmas

Thank you both so much for everything you did to make this trip fun, relaxing, and memorable. The food was delicious, I loved chatting with you guys, the dinghy joyrides and tubing was amazing. Thank you for the local knowledge on snorkel spots and rich people gossip. I really, really enjoyed this trip, and a large part of that was your kindness and hospitality. Thank you and Happy Holidays! ☺

Our skipper was exceptional! He went above and beyond to make sure my crew and I had a good time. I would recommend our skipper to any group of friends.

She made our experience truly five stars. Her food was stellar and presentation was top tier.
Every dish was somehow even better than the last. She also made sure our on and off boat time was well planned so we could enjoy every moment and she brought the best energy all week.

He was the best of the best, always willing to help and made sure we were having a great time. He was able to be himself and I believe that is what it is all about.

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
