About Rolando:

 

A Lifelong Maritime Passion, Real-World Cruise Expertise. NAUTILUS

My connection to the ocean runs deep. As the son of a naval frigate captain, I grew up fascinated by maritime engineering and with an enduring respect for the sea. My personal cruise journey began in 1979 in San Juan, Puerto Rico, when I first stepped aboard the iconic Cunard Countess. That ship holds a truly special place in my life: it is where my wife and I fell in love. We married a year and a half later, and to this day, we continue our tradition of celebrating our wedding anniversaries at sea.

Over more than four decades and thousands of nautical miles, I have witnessed firsthand how cruising has evolved while keeping its true magic intact. For years, I have channeled this passion into organizing bespoke group travel and cruise vacations across the Caribbean and Europe for family and friends, managing every logistical detail with the care and precision of a seasoned traveler.

Through Nautilus, I bring this rich background, personal insight, and genuine love for the sea directly to you. I don't just book trips; I craft seamless ocean journeys and travel memories built on decades of authentic experience. Let’s chart the course for your next unforgettable adventure!

Pasión por el mar, experiencia que inspira confianza.

Mi fascinación por la navegación comenzó desde niño. Con un padre capitán de fragata, crecí soñando con la ingeniería naval y con un profundo respeto por los mares. Mi historia personal a bordo comenzó en 1979 en San Juan, Puerto Rico, cuando embarqué en el legendario Cunard Countess. Ese barco no solo marcó el inicio de mi pasión por los cruceros, sino también de mi historia de amor: allí nos hicimos novios mi esposa y yo. Nos casamos año y medio después y, hasta el día de hoy, seguimos celebrando cada aniversario de bodas en alta mar.

A lo largo de más de cuatro décadas y miles de millas náuticas navegadas, he sido testigo de la evolución de esta industria y de cómo un viaje en barco sigue siendo una de las experiencias más emocionantes y memorables del mundo. Esa devoción me llevó de forma natural a coordinar viajes grupales para familiares y amigos, tanto en travesías marítimas como en recorridos por Europa, cuidando cada detalle con el rigor y la dedicación de un experto.

Hoy pongo toda esa trayectoria, ojo para el detalle y amor por el mar a su servicio a través de Nautilus. No solo le ayudo a reservar unas vacaciones; diseño experiencias inolvidables respaldadas por décadas de vivencias reales en el océano. ¡Permítame acompañarle en la planificación de su próxima gran travesía!
