The Stewardess Bible:
Empowering Superyacht Interior Crew Worldwide!
Working onboard a superyacht is more than providing luxury service—it’s a lifestyle that demands meticulous attention to detail, impeccable etiquette and a deep understanding of hospitality at sea.
New and seasoned yacht crew must be prepared to manage complex housekeeping routines, deliver white‑glove service and handle leadership responsibilities while living in close quarters with fellow crew and guests.
The Stewardess Bible is a comprehensive resource created by former chief stewardess Kylie O’Brien to help superyacht stewardesses and stewards master these challenges and build rewarding careers.
Since 2011 the platform has been dedicated to transforming the lives of superyacht stewardesses by providing comprehensive training manuals and real‑world advice.
Why Professional Training Matters!
Life onboard a superyacht requires much more than good intentions. A stewardess must know how to manage housekeeping, understand service protocols, prepare cocktails and cigars, arrange flowers and coordinate safety drills.
Formal training helps newcomers avoid costly mistakes and gives experienced crew a framework to refine their skills.
The Stewardess Bible is the leading authority in the field of stewardess training, setting a high standard that others have since tried to emulate with their own courses.
It offers comprehensive online training modules covering essential topics such as housekeeping, service duties, laundry on superyachts, cigar and caviar service, mixology, floral arrangements, and guest safety.
By addressing these diverse subjects, The Stewardess Bible ensures that professionals are exceptionally well-prepared for every aspect of their roles, making it the go-to resource in the industry..
Beyond the technical skills, training builds confidence. Many stewardesses enter the industry without prior maritime experience; structured guidance reduces the steep learning curve and sets clear expectations.
Hands‑on case studies and leadership modules are essential for senior stewardesses who will be managing teams and ensuring high standards onboard.
Our Mission: Simplifying Yacht Stewardship
The original Stewardess Bible was created out of Kylie O’Brien’s passion for excellence in yacht stewardship.
The mission statement emphasises making life easier for superyacht stewardesses by equipping them with the skills and knowledge needed to excel in every aspect of yacht interior management.
