We sailed the Dalmatian islands off the coast of Croatia on board the luxury cruise yacht Olimp. The accommodation was exceptional comfortable and roomy. Captain Jure and the crew of the Olimp were outstanding, providing an awesome experience, while cruise representative Vedran took great care of us explaining (each day) historic/cultural significance of each port we stopped at and leading us in some of our on-shore tours. Even though our cruse was in late September / early October we still managed to stop periodically in quiet coves to swim and enjoy the waters of the Adriatic.

Great trip, wonderful scenery, super food, amazing tour guide (Karolina), friendly staff, and helpful sales team (we had to postpone our original trip for a year due to a knee replacement)..

- Peter, 08/10/2024 15:01, Travelled with Family

From the first day to the last day everything went as planned, the areas we visited were fantastic. The food on board was great and the staff were all very nice and helpful. Would definitely do a cruise with you again.

No snacks and coffee service only a few hours a day? Also couldn’t get a beverage while band was playing? Boat lost revenue during entertainment because couldn’t access the bar

Ten person adult family trip - wonderful way to see the best of Croatia. Cities of Dubrovnik, Hvar, and Split as well as smaller island villages. Balanced blend of excursions and free time to explore. Enjoyed our time, met people from Australia, England, and the US, and have already recommended Sail Croatia to family and friends considering a holiday in Croatia. Excellent staff (Mia) and ship crew,

- Mike, 14/08/2024 11:44, Travelled with Family

We were blown away by the ship, our room, all the amenities, the places we stopped, the food, etc., but mostly the personnel. Our guide/coordinator Barbara was wonderful. She answered all of our questions and concerns quickly, she was very friendly and competent. For anyone looking for a great experience they should take advantage of what Sail Croatia has to offer.

- Glen, 06/08/2024 14:48, Travelled with Family

Everything met or exceeded expectations. The team looked after us superbly. I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Having been on larger cruise ships we were looking forward to trying out a smaller one. The rooms were just as nice if not better, the service was incredible, and we found it's much much nicer swimming in the crystal clear Adriatic Sea than a crowded cruise ship swimming pool. We also found getting around to all areas of the cruise ship took seconds not minutes. Our 7-Day Cruise was the perfect amount of time for exploring the nearby coastline and islands. We were left with many wonderful memories and would highly recommend this cruise to anyone interested in visiting Dubrovnik and the surrounding islands.

As my first experience in a cruise, to share my holidays with people I was meeting for the first time, was a challenge. Ivana, our guide, and the crew worked things out wonderfully and ensured that we all had a great experience. Visiting many Croatia’s best cities by boat and swimming in the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea has been an unforgettable experience!

This was a family cruise I decided to take my family on to celebrate my 80th birthday. I would like to say we all thoroughly enjoyed the cruise and I personally would like to thank everyone at Sail Croatia for making this an experience we will not forget. The ship ‘ESPERANZA’ was beautiful. crew were excellent with particular mention of TOMO , bar manager who was brilliant, Itinerary was fantastic with some stunning views and your representative on board, ‘ Karolina’ was very knowledgeable, intelligent and willing to spend time explaining and answering all our questions. Sail Croatiashould be very pleased to have her. Last but not least , thank you to all at Sail Croatia UK office who answered my questions promptly and gave out all the relevant necessary information at the right times so I was fully aware of all aspects leading up to our cruise. FANTASTIC, STUNNING and I have no hesitation in recommending Sail Croatia to all my friends. Now it’s DIET time !!!!!!!. Philip Watson

We spent a week on the OLIM boat on the Elegance Dubrovnik return itinerary. The boat was beautiful, and the experience was fantastic. The crew was outstanding. The cruise director, Vedran was wonderful. Our Captain and the chef were outstanding. The food was great. We loved cruising in the morning which gave us most of the day and all evening to explore our destinations. We were able to find great dinner spots that gave us a beautiful view of the sunset over the Adriatic Sea. . We bonded with the other passengers on the ship almost immediately. We became close friends. Creating a strong bond between all of us only enhanced our experience. I would highly recommend this cruise.

- Jonathan B Rubenstein, 10/06/2024 14:31, Travelled with Family

We had a great week with Sail Croatia. Everything from the food, to the accommodations, crew, and excursions all exceeded our expectations. We will definitely book again.

- Craig, 29/05/2024 16:38, Travelled with Family

Great Crew and hostess Mia were outstanding. Minor problems: AC went out last few days though. Need a stronger band width for Wifi. Very spotty reception. All in all a good cruise was had by my wife and I and the couple we came with.

- Dale, 17/10/2023 06:03, Travelled with Family

Amazing coordinator, crew and ship, not to mention the gorgeous country destinations— all pleasantly shared with friends and family! What a great trip!

- Chuck, 26/09/2023 19:55, Travelled with Family

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay aboard the Esperanza. The boat was well maintained and looked as if it was just launched. All its facilities we excellent and our cabin simply great! The entire crew were very knowledgeable and enjoyable to be around. Our on-board Representative was exceptional and kept us informed of all our daily events. He also knew all the great spots to visit and superb places to eat. Truly a great experience!!

- Carl, 19/09/2023 18:29, Travelled with Family

We had a great week on Queen Jelena, a lot of fun and very relaxing. The Queen Jelena crew were all awesome and, along with Captain Gordon, they ensured the entire week was smooth and enjoyable. Superb service from Tomo and Pamala at the bar! Our Sail Croatia guide, Vedran, was great fun, had a wealth of knowledge about Croatia, and was excellent at communicating with us thought the whole week. Highly recommend sailing with the Queen Jelena team!

- Hamish, 06/09/2023 06:35, Travelled with Family

Very friendly crew and V was a great host with good and clear information. Meals were great and the drinks and nibbles Gordon put on in Brac at sunset was excellent and something everyone on board loved - build it in as was a highlight. Having some small nibbles to buy ie crisps nuts during day would be good. Family really enjoyed the trip.

- David, 05/09/2023 05:38, Travelled with Family

There were five family members in our group and they all enjoyed the cruise immensely. Perfect combination of on-board experiences and on-shore visits. Our cruise director, Ivana, was fabulous and attended to all of our special needs. The fellow travellers were loads of fun. The swimming from the boat was perfect. Scenery was amazing. We all had a great time and would do it again in a heartbeat.

- Vern, 29/08/2023 00:40, Travelled with Family

Definitely a highlight of our holiday! The cruise met all our expectations. The crew were outstanding and the food was unbelievable. What a way to see such a beautiful country. If visiting Croatia, the Queen Jelena is a must!

- Mario, 12/08/2023 21:23, Travelled with Family

This cruise was fantastic. Comfortable spacious boat shared with approx. 32 shipmates and 6 crew. Spacious comfortable cabin. Wonderful island hopping to some truly magnificent towns. Really enjoyable add-ons that we're enjoyed by most to the travelling group, including river-rafting, buggie rides, guided walks, mountain sky walks, and of course daily swimming stops. A thoroughly enjoyable week's sailing with plenty of chill out time in between the activities. Highly recommend.

- Lee, 08/08/2023 10:31, Travelled with Family

Whole package of cruise, crew, manager, fellow passengers iternary & excellent weather made it an amazing building of memories experience.?

It was an amazing time on the Olimp. From the Captain and Crew engaging with the guests to Boris and his incredible knowledge and attention to detail. Highly recommended

I chose Sail Croatia for a holiday with my sister who suffers from great anxiety as a result of mental illness. The friendliness, kindness and support of all the Sail Croatia staff made the whole holiday very relaxing and fun for us both. The other passengers were also a wonderful group. The excursions were well thought out and appropriate and although I might have preferred a little longer in some of the ports, I would not have traded that for the daily swim (which took place in fabulous locations!) A big thank you to Mia and the Sail Croatia team.

- Anonymous, 08/07/2023 10:50, Travelled with Family

One of the nicest experiences of our lives. Traveling with family and friends. The staff was exemplary, the food great with a Croatian influence, plenty of time in each port , the ship Olimp was immaculate, and plenty of options for side excursions. Croatia is a beautiful country.

- Stan, 27/06/2023 08:43, Travelled with Family

Travelled with 6 family members (adults) and were not disappointed with our experience. Our Sail Croatia rep “V” and boat crew especially “Bobby” could not do enough for us. OMG the food “exceptional”. All our stops were breathtaking. Swim stops every day in the blue Adriatic, outstanding. Our boat was full with guest from Australia (us), New Zealand, Canada, England and Spain and we all mixed and had a fantastic time. Our Captains dinner was a highlight of our trip. Would recommend in heart beat. Loved it and so will you.

- Wayne, 21/06/2023 14:50, Travelled with Family

We had an absolutely wonderful week aboard the Queen Jelena. Everything was well organised and the staff, led by Boris, were amazing. They were so helpful, friendly and accommodating. I would suggest however, that, on day 1, during lunch, everyone should stand up one by one, and introduce themselves with 1 or 2 sentences. It would make it easier to learn everyone’s names that way. The food was superb and ample. However, on day 1, there were supposed to be canapés and drinks before lunch. There were no canapés and the drink consisted of a sip of champagne each . This was a little disappointing. I would like to point out that there was one couple aboard who, I believe, gave a 1 star rating for this cruise. They were rude and insulting to the staff and their review, in our opinion, should be completely ignored, when reviewing the crew’s performance. As fellow Australians, we were embarrassed by their behaviour and attitude. Would definitely recommend Sail Croatia to our friends.

- Barry, 06/06/2023 18:32, Travelled with Family

Could be just about the best holiday I have had. Our guide and main contact (Boris) on the cruise was second to none ; very knowledgeable, friendly and always a great source of information. The boat staff were superb, from the captain to the cleaner, again very friendly and constantly tending to any needs. Croatia is such a beautiful country and the people very welcoming. Food on board was excellent. A very relaxing time was had by all, Our fellow travellers were great company, I will definitely be back.

- Dene, 30/05/2023 14:36, Travelled with Family

The passenger coordinator, Ioana, was amazing - great communication regarding what was ahead and very responsive to any passenger needs. There was food aplenty; we joked about getting three dinners every day. Best of all were the stops - every island is rich in history and allowed for easy access to the key sites. I wish we had more time at each stop so maybe next time I'll book a longer cruise.

We travelled as a group of six family members on the yacht Olimp. We were greeted on the dock as we boarded. The staff were fantastic from the moment we arrived until the moment we left. We share the experience with 14 other guests from a wide range of countries and everyone was so nice it added to the enjoyment of the trip. The Olimp was luxurious and it was great chilling on the decks and stopping for the daily swim. Our Travel coordinator ’Vedran’ was fantastic, full of useful information before each day and kept us all updated on a WhatsApp group. The meals on board were prepared by chef and again they couldn’t be faulted. I’ve already been singing the praises of the ship and crew to other friends who are keen to try the adventure.

- David, 10/05/2023 12:26, Travelled with Family

The Olimp was kept in impeccable condition due to the dedicated crew members. The size of the ship enhanced the passenger relations.

- David, 13/10/2022 00:06, Travelled with Family

This was my second Elegant Cruise with Sail Croatia and it certainly lived up to my expectations after thoroughly enjoying the first. Comfort of the ship, itinerary, food, service and the company of fellow travellers was all first class and the ambiance of the Adriatic just adds a wonderful natural element to the overall relaxing experience. Very highly recommended.

- Harry, 22/09/2022 06:31, Travelled with Family

We had high expectations of our Croation Coast Cruise but even these were surpassed. The Queen Jelena was immaculate and so comfortable. The service was superb, the food and wine excellent and the company of our fellow passengers was always delightful. At each stop we did as much or as little as we wanted. And the daily swim stops were a joy - diving into the azure blue waters of the Dalmatian coast - a dream. The islands we visited were all such fun and so interesting. The history was all there. And a different wine and grape at every stop - all excellent. Finally and most important to note - our tour guide Mia was exceptional. She was always there with a smile. She was always watching out for us and always on hand to help where-ever needed. She really cared about us all. And what a kind, caring and lovely person. We were very lucky to have her. It really was a special, memorable and outstasnding holiday experience.

- Ricky, 25/08/2022 14:46, Travelled with Family

Everything was perfect! The welcome, the cabins, the cleanliness of the boat, the kindness of Mia and Pamela as well as of all the crew, the beauty of the boat, the excellent food, the adaptation of the cook if necessary, the visits, the moments of swimming in the sea, everything was really very pleasant! I recommend this trip and this boat!

As a family of four we had a fabulous week sailing on Alfa Mario. A gorgeous yacht with lovely friendly, hardworking staff who made our holiday perfect. Our cruise was Split South and the isands we visited were beautiful, the swim stops chosen by our Captain every day were perfect with stunning clear waters. Our friendly host Ivana was very knowledgeable and gave us great talks on the local history, recommendations for dinner and much more. Any questions or special requests, including dietary requrements, were met without an issue. A fantastic holiday experience seeing beautiful Croatia, making lovely friends onboard the yacht of dreams.

- Alison, 05/10/2021 11:03, Travelled with Family

your cruise director Vedran was outstanding. he made the difference between an ok trip and a great trip. he was well prepared and knowledgeable. you have a gem. he is a 10/10. he should be commended for his ability to handle all situations and find a solution.

- berg, 24/09/2021 18:14, Travelled with Family

The very small number of guests (11) and the attention of the crew (8) made for a very private party. Vedran was always on hand to keep us informed and his entertaining and relaxed style contributed to the fun we all had. The other passengers were all charming and convivial. The boat was spic and span, the accommodation spacious and well appointed, the food was great (except there was too much!) and the Captain was welcoming.. The places we visited, with one exception (Vela Luka), were beautiful and interesting.

- Anonymous, 15/09/2021 11:04, Travelled with Family

It was the first time we have done such a cruise and we loved every minute of it. Good food, great company and friendly crew. Not to mention beautiful scenery and swim stops. What more could you ask for when on holiday?! we would definitely recommend it.

- Tony, 17/08/2021 08:11, Travelled with Family

1. The transfer car from the airport at Split dropped us off by the harbour, a long way from our hotel (which we had to locate ourselves). We could have been driven closer or shown where we could hire a 'golf car' to take us to our hotel. 2. On the boat the air conditioning unit drew air from the rear deck where the crew smoked. This made the atmosphere in our cabin very unpleasant. 3. Please supply black-tea (eg. English or Irish Breakfast Tea) on board. It would be much appreciated by British / Australian / New Zealand guests. Other than this we enjoyed the cruise.

We were a small group of great people and the crew were fantastic. The frequent swim stops at prime locations were fun. The activities available at each port catered for those who just wanted to relax through to the thrill seekers. All of these aspects were tied together by a great crew and fantastic activities Co-Ordinator. Nothing was too much. We would do this trip again without hesitation
