Why is this training different?
In a world where “exceeding expectations” is the baseline, we’ll equip your crew to craft truly unique experiences, surprising and delighting guests in ways they never imagined.
This isn’t your typical “how to serve a drink” training. At The Crew Academy, we pioneer groundbreaking training programs for the yachting industry.
In partnership with renowned hospitality expert Paul Martin, this program delves deep into the psychology of service, empowering your crew to anticipate needs, create unforgettable moments, and build genuine connections with guests.
Transform your crew.
Masters of anticipation
We’ll let you into a little secret. Often, guests don’t know what they truly want until it’s presented to them. Your crew will learn to anticipate guest needs before they are even voiced, becoming masters of intuitive service.
Empowerment, not servitude
We instil a sense of pride and purpose in your crew, helping them understand that they are not merely servants, but skilled professionals with the ability to curate exceptional experiences.
Seizing the moment
We foster a proactive and opportunistic mindset, encouraging your crew to seize every opportunity to enhance the guest experience, turning ordinary moments into extraordinary memories.

With over 30 years of experience working with the world’s most elite establishments, including iconic names like Hotel de Paris, The Ritz Carlton, and Waldorf Astoria, Paul brings a wealth of knowledge and a contagious passion to every session.Â
But Paul is more than just a hospitality expert. He’s a master communicator, a human connection specialist, and a firm believer in unlocking inner potential. As well as a world-champion mixologist (seven global titles and two Guinness World Records!).
