Maui Custom Charters definitely lives up to it's name! Had a last minute change of heart to book an afternoon sail for our family as I wasn't sure how our girls would enjoy it (something you just don't do on big vacations as slots fill up quickly ☺️). Was on the phone with Captain Anna on a Tuesday and we were off sailing with her and her crew that next Wednesday ⛵! Asked her if she could take care of dinner for us and she did not disappoint (excellent dinner captain!). Our youngest and most timid warmed up rather quickly and was roaming around the boat like a pro; while our more adventurous one had a blast learning a thing or two about sailing - giving my wife and I time to just soak it all in together. MCC will be our regular stop everytime we're back on the island from here on out. Captain Anna clearly loves what she does and gave us more than just a sailing experience.. She made us feel like Ohana!

I cannot say enough good things about Maui Custom Charters. They were absolutely amazing and truly catered the experience to us. Captain Anna and her crew made us feel so welcome and were so nice! I was 6 months pregnant and we brought our 2 year old daughter on board. They made sure we all felt safe and comfortable and gave us free reign of the entire boat. They provided pastries, fresh fruit, beverages and sandwiches for lunch. They also provided everything we needed for snorkeling. Anna went above and beyond for us while watching our 2 year old on board so my husband and I could snorkel together. The snorkeling was amazing and we swam with huge turtles and the most colorful fish. If you’re considering Maui Custom Charters while you’re in Hawaii, I would highly recommend booking with them! It was an experience we will never forget!
