AQUA PANDA

Katalin and Peter are one of a kind host. They were flexible with my reservations and were so responsive to my request and needs. Not only that, this trip will forever live in my heart with the accommodations provided!! I'm already planning my next visit! Csoda, the dog, is so precious and friendly as well! Already miss her morning greetings!

Our expectations were beyond met during our week in the BVIs with Kata, Peter, and Csoda. From all of our meals being thoughtfully prepared, to scuba diving and snorkeling excursions fully planned, we had a week of pure relaxation. Peter even joined us at some of our snorkeling spots and was a great guide. If we had it our way, we would be visiting Peter and Kata for a yearly trip. We hope to get back on their boat soon!! Highly recommend.

Kata and Peter were amazing hosts, couldn't ask for someone better! They went out of their way to even pick me up right by the airport, and helped shuttle me back and forth to the island where I was attending an event during the stay. The Aqua Panda is a beautiful vessel and of course the surrounding environment is awe inspiring. The bed was comfortable and, in spite of it being quite warm outside (about 80 degrees), I was able to sleep comfortably. It was just me on the boat, but I'd definitely book with them again if I was returning to the BVI with a group, too. They've got a stand up paddle board, various water sports equipment, and a friendly dog, Choda. Overall an amazing trip - only wish I had more time to hang out with them and enjoy the Aqua Panda life.

We had the most unreal week with Aqua Panda in Antigua. From day one it was pure freedom: sailing around the island, seeing those shoreline views you only get from the sea, hopping off to explore little beaches, and somehow ending up at a floating cocktail bar like it was the most normal thing in the world. We got seriously blessed with wind and kitesurf conditions. My personal highlight was Green Island — absolutely brilliant. Proper flat water, solid consistent wind, boat launch or beach launch whatever you prefer, almost no other kiters, just tons of space and that dreamy “is this place even real?” vibe. It’s been a while since I last experienced this! And it wasn’t just sailing and kiting. The snorkelling was amazing too. Proper “wow” water: azur blue, crystal-clear, and full of life. Saw tons of coloured fishes, stingrays, a blue-spotted ray, sting, and at one point I genuinely got outswum by a turtle😂 We even caught lobster and conch and turned it into the freshest lunch ever — nothing hits quite like eating what you just caught! Hanging with the Kata, Peter, the other guests and most importantly Choda was such a big part of what made it special. A great mix of like-minded water enthusiasts and kiters — the kind of crew where everyone’s stoked, everyone gets it, and the vibes stay high from sunrise to sunset. Great energy, loads of laughs, evenings filled with card plays, while being looked after during the day with healthy meals. Basically: epic sailing, insane kiting, unforgettable snorkelling, amazing people, and a trip that somehow felt both adventurous and effortless. THANK-YOU!! Already looking forward to coming back. 🌬️⛵️🪁🐢🍹🦞
