Accommodations

HIGH 5 is a 2023 Bali 5.4 sailing catamaran designed for relaxed, spacious island living, with the signature open-concept layout that makes Bali such a favorite for charter. The full-width lifting aft door opens the salon completely to the cockpit, creating one expansive indoor-outdoor living area filled with natural light and panoramic views. Forward, the solid foredeck provides a comfortable lounge and sunbathing area, while the flybridge offers another inviting space to gather, unwind, and take in the scenery from above. Accommodating up to 8 guests, HIGH 5 features 1 spacious owner’s suite and 3 queen guest cabins, each with a private ensuite. The generous four-cabin layout provides plenty of privacy without sacrificing the open, social feel throughout the yacht. With multiple lounging and dining areas from bow to stern, bright contemporary interiors, and an easy flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, HIGH 5 offers a comfortable and versatile home base for exploring the islands.

Chef: Lelani Bright Chef Lelani Bright Chef Lelani's life has been shaped by the sea, travel, creativity, and a love for creating meaningful experiences. Raised around boating adventures in Mauritius, she later joined her high school sailing team in Southern Maryland and became involved with the Sea Scouts, building an early connection to sailing and life on the water. After beginning her studies in broadcast journalism at American University, Lelani followed her passion for hospitality and transferred to the University of South Florida. There, she rowed on the university crew team and began working professionally in kitchens as a sous chef in the student dining program and at the Embassy Suites on campus. Her culinary journey later took her to the Caribbean, where she cooked for weddings and events in Saint Croix and completed a culinary and assistant management internship at Scrub Island Resort in the British Virgin Islands. She has also sailed charters throughout Washington, D.C., the Bahamas, Key West, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. Lelani’s cuisine blends influences from Hawai‘i, the Caribbean, and her Afrikaans heritage, creating food that is soulful, colorful, and globally inspired. Her menus are shaped by local ingredients, travel, creativity, and a deep belief that meals should bring people together.
