Sun Goddess

Cheryl has a passion for hosting family, friends and guests, and what better place than the spectacular, crystal blue waters of the Caribbean! She was rated as a Super Host for their Virginia Beach Airbnb home and has transferred her knack for details to hosting guests aboard Sun Goddess. Cheryl’s background as an executive/personal assistant for Fortune 500 CEOs and state senators provided her with years of experience, fueling her love for coordinating travel as well as planning corporate and high-level political events, including a fundraiser for the President of the United States. When living in Virginia, friends encouraged her to start a small catering company which gave her an additional outlet to showcase her love of cooking and entertaining. She is excited about her transition from the corporate world to life on the water where she will serve as both captain and chef for guests. Whether you’re planning a vacation to celebrate a special event or a relaxing island get-away from work, Cheryl welcomes the opportunity to feed your soul with delicious meals and make your trip aboard Sun Goddess a memorable one.

Ironically, Kevin and Cheryl met at a marina bar in Virginia Beach, VA. Looking back, it kind of seems apropos given their journey together. They enjoyed many years camping on the beaches in the OBX along with annual deep sea fishing trips. One vacation to the Caribbean changed everything. They booked an excursion on a private catamaran for a day and they were hooked. Sailing in crystal clear waters, walking on soft sandy beaches, snorkeling, swimming up to some cool beach bars, and being served ice cold drinks and a delicious lunch...well, life doesn't get much better!

Cheryl studied with author and culinary educator Sara Ciliberto of "The Unexpected Kitchen" fame during the 2024 summer holidays.

Kevin and Cheryl love meeting new people, entertaining them, cooking for them and what better place to do this than the spectacular Virgin Islands on their Royal Cape catamaran with a flybridge. They are ready to welcome guests aboard their beautiful Sun Goddess!

Kevin, or KDog as he’s known to family and friends, was born in Nicosia, Cyprus. His father was in the Marine Corps. and they moved all over the world to places such as Turkey, Lebanon, Beirut, Scotland, Japan and Germany before moving to the United States. Kevin's first love of the water began at age 11 when he sailed Sunfish, Lightning, Rebel and Hobie Cats. He fell in love with the power of the wind and ocean, and quickly advanced to sailing larger Hobie Cats off the coasts of NC and VA. Kevin worked as a union elevator mechanic by trade, and also opened his own company installing swimming pools, and building decks and fences. Never one to sit idle, he completed several major remodeling projects around his former homes in Virginia and Florida, and won an award for best backyard design. After purchasing the catamaran, Kevin’s skills were immediately put to use making several modifications and upgrades, and his mechanical background will ensure regular maintenance is performed on Sun Goddess. Captain KDog looks forward to sharing his adventurous nature with you, and who knows, you might just find a buried treasure!
