This boat had enough room for us and was easy to use and navigate. We cooked our meals and had plenty of space to keep food and drinks cold. Showering worked great as did the top deck lounging.

The Calypso was quite adequate for our family of 5 adults. We did have a problem with the fridge not working, but Emerald Star tried tirelessly to help. They really did all they could.

We all thoroughly enjoyed our holiday on the Calypso. The upper deck was spacious enough to relax and enjoy the views or be the Captain for a while. The table was a little on the large side as it was in the way when not in use.. Having a BBQ on the upper deck was a great asset. If we book another Emerald Star holiday then I think we would hire bikes too as touring around from the boat would be easier on wheels rather than on foot .
We stopped by at very characteristic villages and really loved our holiday in Brittany.

Nice boat, everything on board that one needs – not flashy or luxurious but that is ok for the price.

Boat was tired. Cooker ignition not working, battery problems on arrival meant we had to sit at Benson with the boat connected to mains power for an hour before we could leave. Cushions very basic
