Ciro and Simona are not only excellent Captain and First Officer on board, but also beautiful people who gave us an unforgettable experience, they opened their home/sailboat and their hearts to us!!! We took with us the best memories of wonderful places and above all, new friends!!!! We recommend them 1000%. Without a doubt one of the best moments lived that will remain forever in our memories and in our hearts. Just to remember Ciro and Simona: "Softlyeeeee..." ??

This was literally a perfect day and the highlight of our trip to the Amalfi Coast. We felt like we were home! 100% recommended.

We had the best vacation with Pablo and Diego. It was our first time renting a sailboat, and we were very lucky to find Ciro's sailboat. He welcomed us warmly, and even though we couldn't set sail for the first two days due to bad weather, he took the time to show us Sorrento and Naples like only a local could. The sailing adventure was really fun. We think arriving at each island and beach from the sea was much better than doing it by land, because of the number of people during peak season and the possibility of jumping into the water at each place we anchored. The best part was being able to take a nap, sunbathe, or read while we moved from place to place, so we could enjoy every moment we had on the boat. We shared meals and drinks with Ciro and Simona, and we felt at home telling stories with them and among ourselves. All in all, the three of us would say that it is 100% worth visiting the Amalfi Coast and the islands of Naples with Ciro, because it is more practical, much more beautiful, and more entertaining. P.S. Ciro needs to practice hooking the giant Mediterranean tuna because it got away. Next time we'll have to find that same one and eat it. 😂👨🏻‍🍳 P.S.2. The 5-second rule applies on the boat. P.S.3. We send you lots of love from Chile. P.P.S. Pablo got a sailboat tattoo in Rome afterwards.

This magical trip has been our favourite holiday we have ever had! Ciro and Sabina are truly wonderful people, you could not meet more generous, kind hosts. They welcomed us like family and made the trip far more special than we could ever have imagined it to be. They literally never stopped smiling for the entire trip, and they went out of their way to ensure we had an incredible stay. Importantly for us, they showed great love, patience and care for our children which meant so much to us. The Amalfi coast is of course, breathtakingly stunning but our trip was made extra special because of beautiful Simona and Ciro. Their great knowledge of the area meant that they took us to all the best spots at the right times. It would be hard to imagine a more gorgeous area in the world to visit. Our trip was the perfect mix of glorious sailing, swimming in crystal clear water, and visits to wonderfully vibrant towns. As for the boat itself, it is beautiful - very obviously, it is maintained to perfection and the stylish touches really appealed! Anyone who goes on a trip with these wonderful people is extremely lucky. We will recommend to all our friends and will certainly return ❤️

4 unforgettable days and 3 unforgettable nights! We shared, in the truest sense of the word, an incredible stay with our two 8-year-old children, Ciro and Simona. This trip far exceeded our expectations with its pleasant surprises, the atmosphere, the aperitifs, and the meals we shared together. We embarked on a personalized journey and discovered some fabulous spots. This experience was enhanced by Ciro's fishing skills, as he caught a 15kg bluefin tuna on the morning of the second day! We then took advantage of our hosts' culinary talents, enjoying this fresh tuna in delicious dishes until the end of our trip. Our daughters were amazed; they were also able to steer the sailboat and will cherish all these memories for a lifetime. Ciro and Simona are always ready to make children happy! 4 dream days!!

Ciro and his wife gave us a very warm welcome, we felt at home right away on their beautiful boat! They were very kind and friendly. We visited some lovely places, and seeing Ciro sail was an unique experience. This overnight trip made our vacation extra special – a great experience we will not forget!

We rented this sailboat for a weekend in Procida, and the experience was simply perfect. The boat was in excellent condition: clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a safe and comfortable cruise. Highly recommended.

A 5 star trip! It was the best!! Do yourself a favour and get on this boat ASAP. We were on the boat for our honeymoon and had a magical time. The hospitality was spectacular and Ciro was incredibly welcoming and generous. During the course of our trip we discovered how knowledgable he was about the area. We were on the boat for 5 nights and sailed to wonderful islands and along a coast that Ciro knew incredibly well. He was full of fun facts that will engage you during the trip. The food was beyond belief, Ciro is an expert and what we had was delectable, be it midday foods, lovely lunches or great restaurants. If you happen to join him for a few nights, please ask Ciro to show you the secret beach. It is beautiful and a wonderful surprise!

Well where do we start.. what an incredible and unforgettable trip! Ciro and Simona welcomed us with open arms and made us feel at home from the moment we stepped onboard Elenoire. Ciros local knowledge is exceptional and he planned the perfect route in advance with the time frame we had. Ciro and Simona explained details and historic information as we sailed along the coast line. We dropped the anchor and explored common and not so common areas along the way, Ciro took us in the tender through little towns and caves and private beaches, Ciro had the vessel equipped with all the equipment you could need, very comfortable and organized!! We fished our way along from each location and spent time snorkeling in beautiful caves along the cliffs. We didn’t want the trip to end and feel as though they are both family now. We will be back as soon as we can to sail with Ciro and Simona!! Traveling the coast by boat and visiting the towns in the tender is the perfect way to see Amalfi, this has been the best experience of our Italy honeymoon so far!! Thank you so much to Ciro and Simona, we miss you both already!! Until next time!! Jaiden and Bruna xx

Ciro was great. He is very knowledgeable and easy going. Took us out for a full day. Headed toward Capri and he took us to unique and special places to swim and see. Nice onboard lunch with a bottle of Prosecco. We had an excellent time in spite of the wind not being cooperative. It was a perfect experience

Yesterday, my friends and I had the experience of sealing with Ciro and his wife. Was unforgettable. From the moment we stepped on board, they gave a warm and lovely welcome. The attention to detail was impeccable, making us feel like royalty. He had the amazing spot to take and also offers you paddle boarding and take you to grottos and to Capri. As we glided through the serene waters, the stunning nighttime scenery left us amazed. We capture the best moments in a picture-perfect memory. It was a night of relaxation and pure magic. If you're looking for a memorable evening, this sealed boat adventure is a must-try.

Despite a few hiccups prior to our departure, the whole trip was amazing! Ciro was a wonderful host, who made us very welcome and comfortable! He made sure that we were able to do everything we wanted, even though it was last minute and very busy. His pasta was amazing and we had such a great time. The boat was clean and welcoming, fun and, above all the Captain was the best!

My partner gave me the dream of my life...a sailing trip.? We were lucky enough to meet two wonderful people, Ciro and Simona, who have given us the opportunity to make us feel at home from the very first moment. Experience and professionalism in choosing the best places, sympathy and availability never seen until now. To make everything even more magical was the splendid marriage proposal, totally organized with their collaboration ... what to say a dream come true in all respects. Definitely to repeat ... thank you very much.

We had a fantastic time on Ciro’s boat. Both Ciro and Simmone were fantastic guides to explore the local coastline with, and were very accommodating. I’d highly recommend a day trip on Ciro’s boat to anyone staying in the Sorrento area!

As agreed with the skipper Ciro, we met at 9 a.m. at the boat dock. Even the greeting was very warm. Ciro and Simona gave us a wonderful day on board their boat. We were shown the surroundings of the Gulf from Naples to Capri and also told a story or two about it. There was plenty to drink on board and some snacks were also served. At the beginning we had to make do with the engine of the boat because of a "lull". Around noon, some wind picked up and the sails could be set. A great experience to move forward only with wind power. We got along so well with skipper Ciro and his highly trained assistant Simona, who also prepared an excellent Italian espresso for us, that the four of us ended the evening in a restaurant. We can fully recommend a boat trip with Ciro and SIMona. We not only spent a wonderful day on board the Elenoire, but also met two really great people. Thank you and best regards Jenny & Gerhard
