“Carol, a sincere thanks to you and the entire crew of Skyline Cruises. You really made my husband Nygil’s 50th Birthday a memorable one.
All of my guests were very impressed and had a wonderful time aboard the yacht. Brunch was fantastic as well as the hospitality of the crew. Carol, you are a very wonderful person to work with. You made everything seem so easy that at one point, I wondered if my party was going to come off, but with your assurance, I trusted you and it worked out perfectly! I am looking forward to doing this again. Many thanks and God Blessings.”
“Dearest Carol, Words can’t express my appreciation for the wonderful job you & your staff did. From start to finish you were a pleasure to deal with. You made my daughters Bridal Shower something she will always treasure. Thank you Carol, I’m still getting phone calls 3 days later from my guests, complimenting the food, the service and not the mention the wonderful cruise experience! Thank you again, from the bottom of my heart.”
“Dear Staff of the Skyline Princess,
We definitely made the right decision when we chose the Skyline Princess for our parents’ 50th anniversary party. Renewing their vows on the third level, with the sunset in the background, was breathtaking. The friendly, courteous and efficient staff, the abundant gourmet cuisine, the exquisite table settings and the ambiance of the city made their party truly exceptional! Thank you for all your help, suggestions and extras. You were so accommodating to our special needs and requests. Family and friends are still talking about the spectacular extravaganza.”
Dear Carol,
We just can’t thank you enough for the personal, yet professional, attention you paid to all the details of our wedding reception and to our guests. The Skyline Princess was a wonderfully, unique way to celebrate! Thanks!”
