The tour director, Ivana went over and above- very responsive to people. So kind and knowledgeable! The meals were amazing- better than most restaurants. I liked having the down time in the morning to relax and a good overview of what was available in town made town visits enjoyable. The captains dinner with dancing and singing after was a kick. Thank you for everything!

We avoided the extreme heat and crowds that summer in Croatia usually brings. We were still able to swim in the mornings and enjoy walking around the smaller towns. The food on the Esperanza was quite good. Our tour director Ivana did a good job keeping us informed and on schedule.

- Patricia, 17/10/2024 05:35, Travelled with Friend/s

Sailed on the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik and back. It was great to visit some smaller destinations. We were extremely well looked after by all the crew. A special mention has to go to our guide Ioana who brought her energy every day.

- Wendy, 16/10/2024 08:13, Travelled with Family

The other passengers were lovely and kind. The staff were very professional and helpful. Ivana was a brilliant Tour Manager too.

We travelled up the Croatian Coast in Oct. 2024. The trip was simply terrific. The itinerary was first rate, the crew could not do enough to accommodate us, the ship was beautiful, and the food was better than restaurants. Overall we are recommending this type of travel, with Sail Croatia, to all of our friends.

The ship was comfortable and quite luxurious. Staff were very helpful and always pleasant The food was excellent. Congratulations to the chefs The cabin was cleaned daily and towels and bedding changed. Well done to the maid The captain changed the route when necessary to enjoy a safe venue and sheltered areas to swim. Being able to use the drop down platform enabled me to enjoy the daily swim stop. I would not have been able to do the swimming without it. Captain and crew did everything to enhance our experience. The travel guide V was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humour. All in all a very positive and memorable trip. I woul highly recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you Sail Croatia and staff of Olimp.

1. The wifi should work better. 2. For the price of the trip, I expected that we would have access to a good coffee machine 24/7. The urns provided were not satisfactory. 3. The excursions were overpriced. 4. The “included” tour of Dubrovnik should have included a bus to take passengers to the old town. 5. There should be enough treats during the coffee and tea hour (11-12) so everyone has a chance to get a snack. 6. The staff were friendly. 7. The boat was well kept. 8. Our rooms were kept clean. 9. The price of wine (bottles and glasses) were overpriced. 10. The captain’s dinner was very nice. It would have been better if wine was included.

- James, 30/09/2024 14:27, Travelled with Friend/s

Everything about our cruise on The Olimp was fantastic. The cabins were very comfortable, great showers and quite roomy. The food was amazing - every meal absolutely delicious. The boat was beautiful we had lots of space to relax and the captain chose excellent swim spots. The stops at the various towns were great and V we had time to wander and see the sights.. I have wanted to do this cruise for a long time and I was not disappointed - it was absolutely 5 star ⭐️

- Meredith, 27/09/2024 19:22, Travelled with Friend/s

Our September cruise on the Queen Jelena was wonderful. The ship is as depicted and very clean. Highlights include: - stops to swim in the Adriatic Sea - delicious meals - Mia, our tour manager, was very helpful, knowledgeable and available - charming ports and excursions in Dubrovnik (old town), Split ( the palace), Mljet ( biking through National Park)

- Chris, 27/09/2024 14:03, Travelled with Friend/s

Our friends from the neighborhood sailed with us - but the other passengers were lovely addition to the vacation. Mia was the best! So knowledgeable and pleasant.

- Rhonda, 26/09/2024 14:40, Travelled with Friend/s

It was a great experience. Vedren was wonderful. Not only knowledgeable but was so fun to be with. We had a wonderful time and will let all know what a wonderful time we had. The staff and captain were also great. Thank you for a wonderful 50th Anniversary.

- Debbie, 25/09/2024 14:37, Travelled with Friend/s

From the moment we got on board and met all the guests and staff we felt at home and very special. Our beautiful cabin manager Ioanna or Jo as we called her and all the staff were fantastic! Boris and Stella behind the bar and serving our meals each day, cooked by our wonderful chefs was fantastic. Swim stops and our friendly sailors who set everything up we’re also fantastic. Captains dinner was so much fun as was the village dinner and we loved our below deck cabin too. Thanks to our captain and crew for a wonderful trip on the stunning Olimp and to our new friends we have made around the world .

- Michelle , 23/09/2024 11:10, Travelled with Friend/s

Above expectations! The itinerary was great. Loved each port. Food was outstanding. The staff were wonderful. Kudos to the following: Mia-cruise manager-kept us informed, provided site suggestions and timely updates. Responsive to all needs. Capt Vlado-Made changes to itinerary to keep us sheltered from inclement weather. Ensured smooth sailing. Anna and Antonia-our dining/bar staff-super friendly and attentive. Cook staff-I was amazed by the food onboard. Special thanks for accommodating me as a vegetarian. My only negative comment is that the wifi was a struggle. Several of us were constantly trying to access it which meant not all guests had up to date info.

- Dianne, 21/09/2024 13:31, Travelled with Friend/s

Not sure where to even start - we had smiles on our faces from the moment we were greeted by our cruise rep for the trip, Vedran. He made us feel welcome and we knew we were in a fabulous trip! The staff of 7 (not including Vedran and Captain Gordan) did everything they could to make our 7 days the best they could ever be. Everyday we went to a new island full of beauty unlike anything we've ever seen! Vedran gave us some much education, information and recommendations at each location which was extremely helpful! His passion for Croatia is infectious! Our room was cleaned every morning by sweet Ella (a thank less job but very appreciated). Our room was very comfortable - we opted for a room on the lower level and it was perfect! The chefs - Frane and Ana, created a lovely breakfast and delicious, large lunches every day and they were great! Our waiters/baretenders - Tomo and Pamela - were so professional and so fun to get to know. I miss everyone so much! Until next time.

- Cristina, 20/09/2024 18:05, Travelled with Family

Ms Olimp ship had everything we needed. Crew was attentive and amazing. They became our friends for 7 days! Chef made incredible meals, Ionna made every accommodation work for the excursions we wanted. I would highly recommend this cruise.

- US Traveler, 19/09/2024 01:54, Travelled with Friend/s

Mia, the team leader, and all of the crew. Together with the captain the made the whole experience. The captain navigated to ensure we missed nothing on our itinerary. We are looking to book another cruise next year.

- Catherine , 17/09/2024 06:14, Travelled with Family

We spent a week on the Olimp in September 2024 and can honestly say it was one of the best holidays we have ever had. From the luxury of the boat to the wonderful crew we were thoroughly spoilt. We met some great friends and saw just how beautiful the Croatian coastline is. Our daily swim stops and evenings spent in a different island made it a magical week. Special thanks go to our Captain Jure and our Tour Manager Ioana for their exceptional service.

- Lesley, 12/09/2024 09:25, Travelled with Friend/s

Honestly every member of the staff was friendly and welcoming. Karolina was amazing and so warm.. we happened to board with a fantastic group of travellers all very kind and friendly. The boat is very comfortable and clean. The daily swims and perfect weather the cherry on the top.

- Catherine, 10/09/2024 10:32, Travelled with Family

Beautiful weather, fantastic crew and such a perfect start to our adventure. Couldn’t fault anything

- Cathy, 10/09/2024 05:25, Travelled with Family

I could not have asked for a more relaxing and enjoyable experience. The crew were wonderful, especially the guest co-ordinator Karolina. The boat is beautiful, clean and well appointed. The ports we visited were beautiful and each offered a unique experience. The daily swim stops were stunning and really made each day wonderful. The food was delicious. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone needing a break or wanting to see and learn about beautiful Croatia. I hope to come back and do it again.

- Leslie, 10/09/2024 04:57, Travelled with Family

Thoroughly enjoyed cruising the Croatian islands on our Dubrovnik to Split and return to Dubrovnik tour. Each port we stopped at represented a lesson in history. Thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour in Split and Dubrovnik with the local guides as well as the fabulous dinner with wine in Stari Grad at a local farm restaurant. Our morning swimming stops were a pleasure and the food served on the boat was divine. But there were negatives: 1. Our lower level cabins were adjacent to the engine room therefore when the boat left port early in the morning, no further sleep or talking could be had. These cabins were priced the same as the forward lower level cabins which seems unfair. 2. No itemised bar bills were provided so you had to assume that what you were billed for, you actually drank. 3. The boats internet was rubbish. 4. When rafted up at port with other boats, crossing over was difficult at times due to the height of each boat I.e. need individual ramps and not step up or down.

- Rosalie, 05/09/2024 14:17, Travelled with Family

Vedran Ovčar was fantastic. Our crew and itinerary. The ship and our weather were lovely. Can't say enough. We all had such a memorable, great time!

- Anonymous, 03/09/2024 14:55, Travelled with Friend/s

The Sail Croatia staff provided excellent, caring and friendly service. The trip was very relaxing as we enjoyed the swim stops. The meals were very tasty; however, an alternate selection would have been appreciated for those not enjoying what was provided. The rooms were very comfortable, but the air conditioning was not very cool. We were very appreciative to have a fan. Our tour guide, V, was excellent and very entertaining. All in all, it was a very memorable time. 😁

- Joanna, 03/09/2024 12:04, Travelled with Friend/s

V the cruise director was great! He was knowledgeable and had a great personality. He made sure we had everything we needed. All the crew was freindly and attentive. They made the trip even better with their attention to detail. Loved the swim stops and beautiful islands.

- Francine Eastman, 03/09/2024 09:13, Travelled with Friend/s

We absolutely loved our time on the Queen Jelena, which lives up to its ‘elegance cruise’ name. Some stunning spots selected for a daily swim stop before a lovely lunch as we sailed into our port for the day. The boat is immaculate and clearly well taken care of. All the staff were great, with our tour manager Vedran making this an exceptional experience with his briefings and recommendations and engagement with all the passengers. Would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to see more of Croatia and achieve that perfect balance of chill and exploration.

- Melanie, 01/09/2024 20:56, Travelled with Friend/s

Everything about our Elegance Cruise on Olimp was 5 star with wonderful staff, dining and ship facilities. The swim platform on our boat was the best we saw in Croatia. Wouldn’t hesitate to return on another trip.

- Beth, 26/08/2024 07:21, Travelled with Family

The Olimp and its crew were amazing, friendly and attentive . The yacht is gorgeous and the whole experience exceeded my expectation. The daily swims were fabulous, the daily lunches delicious and the excursions that Mia recommended were a lot of fun. Fellow passengers were a lot of fun and made it memorable as well. Thanks again to a wonderful captain George, his crew and Mia!! Looking forward to another trip in the future.

- Maria, 23/08/2024 18:21, Travelled with Family

I would have given this experience a 5* as almost everything was perfect with the exception of a few things. Beach towel for one person for the entire week is not acceptable. Changing of the bath towels every few days is also not acceptable. Breakfast time should be longer. Everything else was great !

- Cristina, 20/08/2024 17:31, Travelled with Family

Everything about this trip was better than I could have hoped for. The boat, the cabins and amenities were excellent. But what made it extra special were the dedicated team onboard who went out of their way to make our holiday a memorable occasion. The cooking was superb, the team serving us were amazing, the captain and crew the best. The swim stops each day were a big highlight and a magical experience. The islands each had their own charm. I felt so well looked after on this holiday. Another bonus was the great mix of similar age groups on the boat. I would definitely recommend this boat and team. A special callout to our Tour Manager, Ioana, who made it all happen, incredible co-ordination and management skills plus a charming personality to match. Great job Ioana and team. Thank you, Sail Croatia, until next time!

Destination and new friends. Organised tours and great hospitality from Mia and the crew. But ultimately it was swimming in the Adriatic in deep water.

We have just disembarked from Queen Jelena. The week was absolutely glorious. From Tomo and Pamela in the bar to Joseph and Matteo our sailors to Ella looking after our cabins and our fabulous captain Gordon we couldn’t have asked her a bit of week. But most of all our Leeder Ioana she was amazing. Constantly working to make our lives better and keep us updated. She went over and above every day so thank you Ioana. Danced the night away on our captains dinner it was a sensational week.

- Jenni, 06/08/2024 09:27, Travelled with Friend/s

The Olymp was a beautiful ship with a very capable and friendly captain and crew, who were attentive to our needs. Our expectations were far exceeded. Joanna had a great personality and made the entire week fun and informative. She provided many options and excursions for us to choose from. Thank you

- Michael, 31/07/2024 06:23, Travelled with Friend/s

I highly recommend this experience! The staff was professional and courteous. The ship was clean and comfortable. The Captain was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about wanting our whole group to have an amazing adventure! We were in good hands! Ioana ( activities concierge)made sure to brief us daily on the activities available in each stop along the Dalmatian coast. She was available to help with booking activities, guiding us to certain places and answering all of our questions. (All 38 of us!) This is truly one of my favorite all time vacations! I can’t say enough about the crew, the people, the places and the layout of the trip. If you have the opportunity to travel with the Olimp crew you absolutely should plan it now!!

- Cassie , 30/07/2024 16:01, Travelled with Friend/s

Cruise delivered as promised, a trip that had something for everyone and we were very happy with our decision to go with Sail Croatia! Vedran, our cruise director kept everything running like clockwork from the airport transfers to the excursions, responding to questions right away and making it all appear effortless though I am sure behind the scenes this was not easy! The other crew were very cheery the entire week and the ship was very clean. The chefs made us custom omelettes each morning for breakfast which were delicious! We also enjoyed getting to know the other travelers on the boat who were very friendly and nice. Would recommend to others looking for this type of experience.

- Anonymous, 28/07/2024 18:51, Travelled with Family

Esperanza is a beautiful boat, with excellent crew who were so friendly and attentive in just the right way. My holiday was dreamy, a time to enjoy every moment, it was great fun, full of surprises and all set within the beauty of the Dalmatian Islands. Our guide was great fun and a mine of information, and the food was really lovely. It was nice to escape sometimes to our cool cabin as we travelled through a heatwave. Thank you to everyone who made my holiday so very special.

- Joan, 23/07/2024 18:23, Travelled with Family

My solo cabin was clean and comfortable, with an outside door to let in the breeze and hang clothes outside. Air conditioning was strong. Food at breakfast and lunch were fantastic and Vedran’s recommendations for dinner and drinks were spot on. The smaller ship allowed us to have magical swim stops every day and explore small islands. Each day varied depending on the island, with some days more chill and others full of sightseeing or hikes. I was traveling solo but we had an incredibly warm and inclusive group of travelers from different generations. The smaller setting and a week together made it easy to connect.

- Evelyn, 23/07/2024 10:09, Travelled Solo

Our crew was amazing - friendly, thoughtful, and fun! This was our first small ship adventure and we felt like friends with our crew, who handled all our needs efficiently and gave us suggestions and history on the places we were visiting. We were able to connect with all the lovely passengers - only 18 besides us aboard. Swim stops were a blast in these scenic locations with the most gorgeous turquoise clear water I have ever seen. Absolutely the best. Highly recommend!

The boat was extremely comfortable and luxurious so much better than we expected. Cabin was comfortable and a generous bathroom. Staff were extremely helpful. Our hostess was excellent and very knowledgeable. Food was sensational and generous. Would definitely sail again with Sail Croatia

Everything was first class with this cruise! Cabins were surprisingly spacious, food was amazing, thought I was eating at a 5 star restaurant every night. They kept the yacht spotless. Our cabin was cleaned every day and she knew when to come without disrupting our cabin time. Our food/drink service was outstanding. Tomo went the extra mile to ensure we always had what we needed/requested. And with a smile! Ivana was so helpful and informative. She was easy to chat with and always on top of things. She made sure we had all the info needed to make this cruise a pleasant and fun experience. She also went the extra mile by taking us on a couple of unscheduled tours to ensure we could find our way around. Thank you Sail Croatia Crew
