Pamyk, we are just like you two. No experience. We were looking hard at Festiva. I believe less than $4k for the week all inclusive. Their boats looked good and big enough for alone time. But we opted to splurge this year and instead will get a crewed boat. Definitely more expensive. But what the hell, you only live once. We are sailing Nov ‘19 as well. 16th thru 23rd. If you are there then let us know. Love meeting TTOL’ers while in the BVI’s. Planning the trip is half the fun too. This board has great info and lots of followers who are more than helpful.
