Guest Experiences
Read what previous guests have to say about their unforgettable time aboard Bereshit.
This was a trip of a lifetime and both Captain Pablo and Chef Aritz made it all possible. They went above and beyond to make our 8 day sail the most memorable trip EVER! Captain Pablo’s knowledge of the BVI’s was spot on and always knew the best islands to visit. We wanted to dinner one night on an island and his recommendation was amazing and he even made the reservations for us. We also decided at the last minute to get married on the boat so Captain Pablo made sure my day was perfect and found decorations and had a beautiful bouquet of flowers for me. The food….I can’t even describe the amazing dishes that Chef Aritz prepared for us, each morning he greeted me with a cappuccino and made sure to review the daily menu with us and gave us options. I’ll post pics of each meal so they can speak for themselves. Each meal was made with love and even Captain Pablo made his famous grandmothers French Toast one morning which was to die for! I would 100% recommend sailing with this crew, you won’t be disappointed I promise.
The best of times are had at sailing the sea and this boat is the one you want.
Pablo and Artiz were great and blended perfectly with my family. They were always on point and delivered everything anyone could ever want. They were super with everyone in my family and my 3yr old daughter loved them both. Food and a clean cabin was always available and they became great friends and honestly I was sad to part ways at the end of the trip. Can't wait to sail with them again in the future. The boat was amazing and the trip was too, l've been around the world and have had many trips, you can't go wrong with the Bereshit crew!!!!!!
Our sailing experience around Mallorca on the Leopard 50 ‘Bereshit’ was nothing short of magical - from the breathtaking beaches and luxurious comfort to the exceptional crew, every moment was a five-star adventure we’ll cherish forever!

Aritz Santiago Ballesteros
Aritz Ballesteros is a 36-year-old chef renowned for his passion for creating unforgettable culinary experiences. Over the years, he has evolved from a culinary enthusiast into a seasoned Head Chef, excelling in kitchen management, team leadership, menu creation, and event organization.
Aritz's career has taken him across much of Europe, including a notable tenure with Chateauform in the Netherlands, where he worked in stunning locations across Holland, Germany, France, and Switzerland. His experience includes positions at prestigious establishments such as the five-star Conservatorium Hotel in Amsterdam and high-end restaurants like Taiko Amsterdam, specializing in Asian cuisine, and Helling 7 in Amsterdam.
