Chef

Captain: Robin Willows

Captain Rob has saltwater in his veins, having first taken to the sea at the age of seven sailing Optimists. By his teens, he was racing Hobie Cats, driven by a love of speed and wind. At just 16, he landed a deckhand position that took him island-hopping through the Indian Ocean for six unforgettable months—a formative experience that cemented his lifelong passion for life on the water. Rob has now spent over a decade sailing the breathtaking British Virgin Islands, a place he fell in love with during his travels to over 60 countries. His enthusiasm for sailing is infectious; he thrives on hoisting the sails, harnessing the wind, and showing guests a true sailing adventure. Ever ready to "show you the ropes," Rob loves sharing his knowledge with curious minds. With his signature sense of humor, love of watersports, and deep appreciation for the great outdoors, he's not only your captain but also your guide to unforgettable fun.

Chef Bex is a professionally trained yacht chef with a sharp eye for detail and a passion for creating memorable dining experiences at sea. With a lifelong background in hospitality, looking after others comes naturally—she intuitively anticipates guests' needs and goes above and beyond to make them feel right at home. Her adventurous spirit perfectly complements her dual love of sailing and cooking, resulting in fresh, vibrant meals crafted with creativity and care. Whether she’s sourcing local ingredients or preparing an elegant sunset dinner, Bex brings warmth and energy to every dish she serves.

Together, Rob and Bex are a dynamic and harmonious team who are passionate about delivering unforgettable charter experiences. Their combined love for the sea, dedication to hospitality, and genuine care for their guests ensure every trip is filled with laughter, adventure, delicious food, and lasting memories.

the age of seven sailing Optimists. By his teens, he was racing Hobie Cats, driven by a love of speed and wind. At just 16, he landed a deckhand position that took him island-hopping through the Indian Ocean for six unforgettable months—a formative experience that cemented his lifelong passion for life on the water. Rob has now spent over a decade sailing the breathtaking British Virgin Islands, a place he fell in love with during his travels to over 60 countries. His enthusiasm for sailing is infectious; he thrives on hoisting the sails, harnessing the wind, and showing guests a true sailing adventure. Ever ready to "show you the ropes," Rob loves sharing his knowledge with curious minds. With his signature sense of humor, love of watersports, and deep appreciation for the great outdoors, he's not only your captain but also your guide to unforgettable fun.<br /> <br /> Chef Bex is a professionally trained yacht chef with a sharp eye for detail and a passion for creating memorable dining experiences at sea.

Her adventurous spirit perfectly complements her dual love of sailing and cooking, resulting in fresh, vibrant meals crafted with creativity and care. Whether she’s sourcing local ingredients or preparing an elegant sunset dinner, Bex brings warmth and energy to every dish she serves.<br /> <br /> Together, Rob and Bex are a dynamic and harmonious team who are passionate about delivering unforgettable charter experiences.

They were spotless and cleaned daily. All excursions and pictures taken on the trip were part of the cost and no extra fees assessed. Special touches like St. Patty’s Day celebrations and remembrances of those family members we have lost, show how much they put into each of their charters.<br /> Chef Bex made sure everyone’s dietary needs were met with delicious meals and snacks. I wish she had a cookbook to sell so we could do our best to share her delicious masterpieces with our family and friends back home! Rob was an amazing captain that navigated the beautiful waters with grace, showing us so many beautiful spots and snorkeling experiences. He wasn’t too shabby in the kitchen either!

The yacht is a perfect size as you have separate “chill zones” (fly bridge couch and loungers were my favorite spot second to the trampoline) but it doesn’t feel too large to where you’re constantly looking around for your loved ones (or iphone in my case). Bex and Rob are so incredibly knowledgeable about the islands, the local fun/places to pop in for a pain killer, and everything on top of and below the water line. Our week was jam packed with adventures but it didn’t feel rushed. Our final day was spent swimming with sea turtles, which was professional captured on film by non other than Captain Rob himself.

We were treated to eight days cruising the beautiful BVI. Snorkeling and playing in Crystal clear Caribbean water. Swimming with turtles, rays, schools of colorful fish, squid and more. Beach days with no one but our party of nine and the crew. Three amazing meals on board a day that would rival any top tier restaurant. Stops at Jost Van Dyke for Pain Killers and all the things. Already looking forward to next time!</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> June 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Our group of nine were on the Bliss with a three person crew for seven days. Our crew was Captain Rob, his wife chef Bex, and also Jason. They were absolutely fantastic! All nine of us clients feel that way. My wife and I agree that our trip was even better than we imagined. The islands, coves, water sports toys, snorkeling, hiking, beaches, etc. were beyond amazing. We can’t recommend the Bliss and its crew enough! You will not be disappointed! </div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> June 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Don’t think twice…just book them. We were blown away by the yacht and even more so by this crew. Captain Rob took us to stop after stop where each was better than the last. Chef Bex is an amazing (and that doesn’t come close to describing her) culinary artist. You will NOT Be hungry or thirsty. Mate Jason was the sweetest and was always right there making everyone their favorite drinks and getting out all the water toys you could ever dream of. This yacht is beautiful. Just a couple highlights: cheeseburger lunch on a deserted beach, snorkeling at Diamond Reef, Soggy Dollar, Saba Rock, swimming with sea turtles. All of this was photographed by Captain Rob, above and below water. We will be back with them.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> May 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Amazing trip of a life time! Highly recommend. Boat is beautiful and staff is excellent!</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> April 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Our family had the opportunity to experience an amazing vacation this April 2026 in the BVI on Bliss. Rob our Captain, Bex our chef and “J” Jason our crew were extraordinary hosts. They are incredibly attentive, make you feel right at home and they are such a pleasure to share our trip with. From local lore and evening karaoke to knowing all the best snorkeling spot and capturing amazing videos of our excursions Rob helped us create wonderful memories. Bex is an amazing chef catering to everyone’s tastes from local flavors to comfort foods. Jason catered to our every need. Everyone took such good care of us. This was a trip of a lifetime. Pro tip-pack light. You will truly live in your bathing suit and coverups.<br /> Lovely people who truly love what they do and it shows.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> April 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>This adventure far exceeded any expectations I had going into the journey. This is a once in a lifetime experience. Rob, Bex, and Jason anticipated every need and desire - professional while warm and personable.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> March 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>We enjoyed a one week sail around the British Virgin Islands to celebrate a milestone birthday with four couples and three crew members. This was a once in a lifetime trip that has changed all of us for the better.<br /> The accommodations were amazing with each couple having their own room, including a bathroom and shower. They were spotless and cleaned daily. All excursions and pictures taken on the trip were part of the cost and no extra fees assessed. Special touches like St. Patty’s Day celebrations and remembrances of those family members we have lost, show how much they put into each of their charters.<br /> Chef Bex made sure everyone’s dietary needs were met with delicious meals and snacks. I wish she had a cookbook to sell so we could do our best to share her delicious masterpieces with our family and friends back home! Rob was an amazing captain that navigated the beautiful waters with grace, showing us so many beautiful spots and snorkeling experiences. He wasn’t too shabby in the kitchen either! We were fortunate enough to be with Jason, the First Mate on his first excursion. The way they worked together as a team and taught Jason was amazing to witness and quite educational for all of us. With Jason’s ambition and willingness to follow his dreams, Rob’s compassion, grace, and knowledge as a captain, and Bex’s amazing food, hospitality, and love, we have all made three new friends for life that are part of our families. I highly recommend your next charter be in the beautiful Bliss!</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> February 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>I just got back from an incredible trip aboard the Yacht Bliss in the British Virgin Islands, and I can’t recommend them enough! From start to finish, everything was super relaxing yet adventurous, thanks to the amazing crew.<br /> <br /> Each meal felt like we were dining at a high-end restaurant – seriously, the food was unbelievable! We got to enjoy beautiful sunsets and hikes while also spotting a lot of sea wildlife, which made the experience even more memorable.<br /> <br /> The captain and crew were extremely helpful and made us feel welcomed and safe throughout the trip. Their knowledge of the islands and the equipment on the yacht was impressive. They took us to some stunning sites, both private and lively spots with fun bars and restaurants, ensuring we got the best of what BVI has to offer.<br /> <br /> Booking the trip with Cooper Vinoagis from Limen Travel was a breeze. Their communication with the yacht company was fantastic, making the whole process smooth and enjoyable.<br /> <br /> If you're looking for an unforgettable sailing experience in the BVI, definitely give the Yacht Bliss team a shout – I’ll be back for sure!</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> January 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>This is the kind of trip that quietly ruins future vacations because it sets the bar almost impossibly high. You start with a world-class yacht and finish with a crew that just gets everything right.<br /> We sailed in high winds early in the trip and instead of feeling tense, it was exciting, smooth, and honestly exhilarating. That set the tone for the entire week.<br /> Captain Rob’s experience was obvious from day one. He handled challenging conditions with calm confidence and took us to incredible, uncrowded spots. You could tell he knows these waters inside and out.<br /> Then there was the food. Chef Bex delivered exceptional fine-dining quality meals on a boat. Lobster, lamb, sushi, duck, and an eight-course finale that was one of the best meals I have ever had. And I travel a lot and consider myself a serious food snob.<br /> BLISS was extremely comfortable for our group of ten with private queen cabins and bathrooms, hot tub, and great shared space. Everything ran smoothly and effortlessly. <br /> If you are deciding between charters, BLISS with Captain Rob and Chef Bex is an easy choice. This crew delivers a rare combination of skill, luxury, comfort, and unforgettable experience.<br /> This is the kind of trip that quietly ruins future vacations because it sets the bar almost impossibly high.

Rob, the captain, was exceptional — calm, capable, and created an environment where everything just flowed. Bex, the chef, was incredible. Every meal was thoughtful and next-level, and her energy made the boat feel like home.<br /> <br /> What made the trip truly special was the people. It was a rare mix of adventure, meaningful conversations, business, and personal growth — all in a setting that allowed everyone to be fully present.<br /> <br /> I left refreshed, inspired, and genuinely grateful. Highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for something special.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> Jan 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Sailing on Bliss was just that. Bliss. From the sailing and food to the snorkelling and exploring- all of it was blissful. This is the ultimate R&R. The yacht was roomy enough for 5 couples. I always felt like we had plenty of space to spread out. Our captain, Rob, found the best coves and even took us snorkeling to the most incredible spots where he dove below the ridges of the reefs to spot interesting creatures. Bex made the most delectable meals and surprised us with entertainment (no spoilers here). The reception with the Starlink was good for important calls or contact with the outside world when necessary. If you are looking for a way to recharge your soul and nervous system, Bliss is what you need.</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> Jan 2026</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>If you’re looking to book Bliss just do it, you will not regret it!! Everything about this week was amazing from the boat itself to Captain Rob not to mention the food, OMG Bex outdid herself with every meal! We also had Sue as our stew for the week, her service was outstanding! Bliss has every toy you could want to enjoy your week in the BVI, not to mention a hot tub on deck!</div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> New Year 2025-26</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>New Year Charter 2025-26</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[10199]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34580-1.jpg?272594820' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 1' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34580-1.jpg?272594820"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[10199]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34580-2.jpg?272594820' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 2' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34580-2.jpg?272594820"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> Christmas 2025</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>Christmas charter 2025</div><div class='clr'></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[10199]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34579-1.jpg?272594820' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 3' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34579-1.jpg?272594820"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'><a rel='prettyPhoto[10199]' title='' href='https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34579-2.jpg?272594820' class="review_img" data-lightbox="review_image"><span></span><img src='' style='border:0px;' alt='Photo 4' class="lazyload img-responsive" data-src="https://i1.wp.com/www.centralyachtagent.com/yachtadmin/yachtlg/yacht10199/10199guests34579-2.jpg?272594820"></a></div></div><div class='ebrimg cya-width-33 cya-width-block'><div class='ebrimg2 dc_decor_img' style='display:inline-block;max-width:98%;'></div></div><div class='clr'></div> </div> <div class='bs-example'> <div class="yacht_rev"> December 2025</div><div class='clr'></div><div style='text-align:left;'>I’ve been to the BVIs three times, all aboard different yachts. Our week on Bliss blows the previous two charters out of the water. The yacht is a perfect size as you have separate “chill zones” (fly bridge couch and loungers were my favorite spot second to the trampoline) but it doesn’t feel too large to where you’re constantly looking around for your loved ones (or iphone in my case). Bex and Rob are so incredibly knowledgeable about the islands, the local fun/places to pop in for a pain killer, and everything on top of and below the water line. Our week was jam packed with adventures but it didn’t feel rushed. Our final day was spent swimming with sea turtles, which was professional captured on film by non other than Captain Rob himself. From exquisite meals to karaoke on the stern Bliss truly is an unforgettable experience. I have been to 30 countries and seen many things, but Bliss is at the top of my list of favorite travel memories. Our family is truly grateful for the time we shared aboard Bliss.
