For about a decade now, I have been renting from Sailoé (Lorient and Seychelles) on various types of vessels for several weeks each year: Archambault, Pogo, Oléa, First 31.7 to 45, Lagoon, and more. Stéphane and his team are sailing enthusiasts, whether it's racing or cruising. We have learned a great deal from them, never hesitating to seek advice on various aspects such as adjustments, safety, navigation, anchoring, weather, and more. Our conversations are always empathetic, free from judgment.

Regarding their fleet, we have never encountered any issues: the boats are exceptionally clean and technically flawless. I recommend Sailoé to all my acquaintances with full confidence. Stéphane offers numerous solutions even in the event of last-minute changes. Looking forward to next Friday! ?

It was far not the first experience of charter bareboat for me, but it was one of the few times when I can't say anything negative about charter company. Initially we booked Lagoon 38 of 2016, but ~ 1 week before our charter we were upgraded to Lagoon 42 of 2017 absolutely for free. Guess it was something wrong with the first one, but anyway. So I would say it was as good charter experience as it could be. Catamaran itself was absolutely fine, we hadn't any problems with it, passed check in and check out smoothly and quickly.
The only advice I would give to potential clients - don't count on snorkeling masks and paddles that are included - much better to take yours with you.

I went through ACV/SAILOE for the purchase of an A31, in preparation for the Transquadra 2018. Stéphane Bariou and his entire team found us an exceptional second-hand boat, brought it back to a like-new condition, and supported us throughout our project with great professionalism.

Fantastic holidays in Corsica aboard a beautiful Lagoon catamaran! The booking team did everything they could despite the weather and time constraints to ensure that we had a wonderful stay. I highly recommend it for a rental in the southern part of the Island of Beauty.

It's my first rental. And it won't be my last.
All the preparation for the outing (Ascension 2012 on 4 days) was managed quietly, the exchanges by email or telephone allowed us to be ready to board.
Handling without worries, efficient (replacement of winch cranks a little worn. Assistance in reassembling the lazy-jack ;-).
The boat, the A40: what happiness. Surfing at over 18 knots, less than three hours between Concarneau and Port-Tudy. Sails that can be shaped as you wish. A vast cockpit ideal for manoeuvring. State-of-the-art tactical equipment.
After two days, we find that it is not "Spartan" enough. We can still lighten her up a bit.
That's it, I still have to get back in shape to leave with, or with another.
Thanks to the whole team!

Catamaran Charter
We chartered a Lagoon 38 Catamaran with a Skipper for two couples. Our Skipper, George, was fantastic! The boat was clean and everything was in working order. We didn't love the first night and last night moored on Eden Island because the boat is moored near a discotech club that boomed all night both nights, but that was really our only complaint of the whole week.
Our first day, we sailed (not motored) to Curieuse Island just off Praslin and George helped us cook the Tuna that we caught that day for dinner. The rest of the week was a blur of Giant Tortoises, SCUBA Diving, Snorkeling, and Sailing around Praslin and Le Digue Islands before making the crossing back to Mahe Island.
This was truly a memorable trip, made all the better by our skipper and new friend, George.

A few words to finally express our complete satisfaction after 3 rentals with ACV. The boats (Lagoon 380, 410, 450s) were always top-notch, and the team is truly competent and attentive. Thank you all, and hopefully, see you in 2021!

A professional team, helpful, attentive to customers. A very well-equipped catamaran suitable for our coastal cruise in southern Corsica. The skipper was truly excellent and went above and beyond what was expected. A big congratulations and thank you to Sailoé for our successful vacation.

A wonderful and trustful experience with Alex, our skipper, and Natacha, our hostess. The boat is very well-equipped and comfortable with private spaces for everyone. We had some issues with the toilet that were resolved by Alex and Natacha. A true Corsican culinary discovery with Alex's dishes... A delight... Thank you.
