The beaching of a single (no surprise), live animal is usually the result of sickness (mental maybe?) or injury. Bad weather, old age (#fact), navigation errors, and hunting (teeth needed) too close…

Firstly, thank you for the advertising! After recent dealings with the self-acclaimed "blogger" (Chris von Ulmenstein) her label must rather be changed to "blubber". After some insulting emails to us…

I would like to thank Mr. Cross and Mr. West for this excellent training of 3 days. It was meaningful, enriching, and informative. It was a wonderful experience, and we created lots of memories as well during the sessions."I will never forget everything that i learnt, just like the man who will never forget about that cup of coffee at the airport. Thank you very very much.

I wish to convey my heartfelt appreciation to the esteemed SABA International Butler Academy for the invaluable lessons imparted during the preceding nine weeks. Upon departing the institute, I emerged as a wholly transformed individual, imbued with a profound sense of professionalism. I am confident that I am poised to join the ranks of the finest Butlers in the foreseeable future. My gratitude extends to Mr. Cross, West, Ms. Hunter, and the entire faculty of the SABA Butler Academy for their contributions to elevating the standards of the service industry. Their shared insights and wealth of experience as Butlers have been truly enlightening.In light of my experience, I wholeheartedly endorse the SABA International Butler Academy to fellow hospitality professionals and individuals contemplating a career in Butler service. It stands as a superlative choice—one that promises personal and professional fulfilment of the highest order.In conclusion, I am reminded of the timeless wisdom encapsulated in Mr. Cross's biblical quote: "In everything, do to others what you would have them do to you." Indeed, the ethos of service and respect exemplified by this principle resonates deeply with the ethos of the SABA International Butler Academy.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen,Thank you so much for taking the time to read my review. 😁Allow me to introduce myself, my name Mohamed Shifau and I had the amazing pleasure and honour of attending the SABA butler training this year in The beautiful Sirru fenfushi.My apologies about the long intro. if I did not do that my dear teacher might have given me a lecture hehe, truth be told it was one of the best experiences I have had in my life, I went there expecting the training to be hard and the trainer to be strict, considering my knowledge of being a butler, the perfect, poised and always formal person they are but the training was everything but what I expected it to be.Mr. Newton and Ms. Jill were outstanding. they took so good care of everyone and the training was filled with laughs and fun as much as educational benefits. Hats off to the two mentioned above it was a delight and a pleasure knowing you two and getting to learn under your guidance.Anyone and everyone who is interested in becoming a butler and knowing the crucial points of who and what a butler is, SABA is the place for you, the knowledge and experience alone is worth everything.I have made so many beautiful memories with my classmates and teachers that I will cherish for as long as I live and I hope that many more like me will find there way to there own memories just like mine and many more before me.I have only one complain with the training, which is that it ended too soon. I wish I had more time to learn and grow with you Mr. Newton. Thank you so much for everything and my apologies about my late reply I wanted to sit down and peacefully write to you and the week after my training was anything but peaceful so I hope you can forgive my delay.Missing you, Ms. Jill and all of my classmates and hoping to see you all again and to the new comers planing to join the SABA family, a very very warm welcome and I assure you, you will never be the same person after you join this family.With love, care and unwavering respect,Your student always,Mohamed ShifauFrom the beautiful Maldives 😁❤️
