Everything just came together beautifully. Fantastic weather, a diverse interesting group of friendly really nice passengers, a warm friendly crew and fantastic host Anita. On board food was great. The timing of events, swim stops and activities each day was well, thought out and just worked. Anita did a really good job of keeping everyone updated throughout the day both personally and via a group chat including extra things to do, places to eat etc. To top it off, the boat, Salve de Mare, was fantastic, with lots of space, very clean and comfortable with everything operating as it should. Would definitely travel with Sail Croatia again!

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.

Marin and Mila were great guides on all of the rides. The food was very good, and the captain and crew did a great job. I would very much look forward to going on a future bike and sail cruise.

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)..

Great yacht, excellent team, beautiful islands. The ops team were superb - extremely helpful and responsive throughout the booking process, departure and sailing trip. Thank you!

Swim stops were cancelled due to weather without consulting passengers. Some activities were cancelled either because of equipment malfunction. A better hostess would be good.
- Malcolm , 07/10/2024 06:54, Travelled with Family
Hi Malcolm - thank you for your review. We're glad to hear you found us to be a good company to travel with. For everyone's safety, we were sorry to see that a swim stop wasn't possible due to the unusually poor weather conditions, and we understand this affected your experience. We’re pleased to see that the hostess received all 5-star reviews for your departure. Once again thank you for your feedback.
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.

Brilliant format. Some exercise, great scenery and hospitality from the Croatians. Good food on-board and in the towns. Lovely friendly and interesting other guests/passengers. Excellent crew and travel guides.

Friendly, competent, accommodating Skipper (Tony) and Hostess (Nina) as well as a great yacht made this Croatia coast line sail a wonderful family reunion.
- Jean, 02/10/2024 14:04, Travelled with Family
Sailing Croatia on a catamaran is the best way to experience the beautiful Croatian coast line. Amazing swimming spots, lovely dinners at each island and interesting culture and heritage. Hrvoje (Jack) was a brilliant skipper. His knowledge, friendliness and experience was excellent. The sail Croatia team made the booking of the holiday an easy process with great communication.. I can highly recommend the Sail Croatia team if you are looking to sail the Croatian coast line.

The cabins were cold and the first nigt on board the boat we could hardly sleep due to the chill in the cabin. We could not control the tempreture in the cabin. The cabin had lower standard than we expected. The food served on board was not good.Breakfast was good but lunch and grill could have been better.. I had the feeling during the trip that we were alwayes in a hurry. and the cykling tours not relaxed.Not much time for fotos or to observe the scenery etc. Nevertheless we enjoyed the trip.The staff was friendly and helpful at all times.
- Pall, 26/09/2024 17:53, Travelled with Family
Hi Pall, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed your trip and found our staff friendly and helpful, though we're sorry to learn that some aspects didn't meet your expectations. Regarding the temperature in your cabin, we’d like to mention that the AC units onboard also have a heating function. Our Onboard Rep would have been more than happy to assist with this, had they been made aware of your discomfort. We appreciate your feedback on the meals. While breakfast met expectations, we'll pass your comments on to our team regarding the lunches served. In terms of the cycling pace, our Cycle cruises are designed for the more active traveler who enjoys a faster-paced itinerary. However, for those seeking a more relaxed experience with plenty of time to take in the scenery and capture photos, we offer other options such as our Explorer or Elegance cruises. These might be more suited to a leisurely travel experience in the future. Thank you again for your feedback. We hope to welcome you back onboard soon for another adventure.
The 2 guys seeing us on the boat were really professional. Gave us time, answered questions and were extremely welcoming and friendly.
- Bob, 24/09/2024 09:23, Travelled with Family
Sail Croatia were fantastic to deal with. Despite some mechanical problems with our boat identified before our charter commenced, they supplied us with a newer alternative boat and offered appropriate compensation. Tvetsan and his team could not have been more helpful in ensuring we were safe, happy and had a great time.
- John, 24/09/2024 08:20, Travelled with Family
The staff were excellent, with special mention of Klara and Branco who made the cruise extra special. Klara's knowledge of the islands and history were shared to us with passion and humor and was received extremely well by the guests. The arranging of excursions was flawless and we always knew the times and booking details well in advance. Branco made sure that we were served plenty of food on board and his bar manner was second to none. The islands themselves shared their different characters, all of which were enjoyed by all. We would definitely do this again as we thoroughly enjoyed our first ever cruise provided by Sail Croatia.
- Daryl, 24/09/2024 07:24, Travelled with Family
The ship (Salve di Mare) was so comfortable and very well maintained. The crew were professional, friendly and fun. The meals were exceptionally well prepared and presented. Our Sail Croatia tour representative, Vicko, was so knowledgeable and helpful. This cruise was absolutely the right choice for seeing the Dalmation coast and I highly recommend Sail Croatia!
- Kevin, 23/09/2024 21:41, Travelled with Family
Saša, Dino, and the entire Crew of the Pacific were the absolute best every day. They made the trip such a seamless pleasure. I couldn't have asked for a better week in Croatia. This was my second time on Sail Croatia, and they topped my expectations by far. Big thanks to the chefs. The food was delicious, and that's coming from a chef myself. Cheers, Sam 🤠
- Sam, 23/09/2024 06:59, Travelled with Family
Our vacation experience with Sail Croatia was excellent and memorable. Having cruised in Europe, Caribbean and Alaska on much larger ships we were looking for a new cruise experience: Sail Croatia delivered a new, higher level of cruising intimacy to us. The yacht Salle Di Mare was unique in terms that it is a mix of traditional design coupled with modern elegance. There were plenty of areas to relax and enjoy a tranquil cruise around the Croatian islands. It's a very intimate experience unlike the large cruise liners. You get to meet the crew and see them working every day. You mingle all the time with fellow passengers and make new friends. And you have this against a backdrop of picture-perfect islands, historic sites, and blue (clear) water. Plus, our cruise had 6 out of 7 days of sunshine, and on the day without sun we had indoor wine tasting :-) As an endorsement, we are already planning another Sail Croatia cruise!

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

Great boat and an awesome skipper in Jack. Nothing was too much trouble for him. Boat was very modern and comfortable.
- Kevin, 12/09/2024 06:44, Travelled with Family
Unbelievable places, once in a lifetime activities and a fantastic crew. Lateah our trip manager was a brilliant guide. Always up for a good time, knowledgeable beyond her years and extremely approachable amidst ever changing circumstances. Highly recommend. Tommy the waiter on our boat was also a 10/10, always went above and beyond, very funny and down to earth guy.

Amazing week with our Skipper Jack Sparrow on the catamaran “Sundance”. Jack was fantastic and provided GREAT recommendations and took us to all the best places in Croatia. The boat itself was great and perfect for our family of 6. Highly recommend

Bartul and Miranda were the best guides! They did a great job discussing the history and culture of the areas we were biking through. They were charismatic, patient, fun and genuinely interested in everyone on the ship. The presentations of the upcoming bike rides were informative and prepared us well for the difficulty of each ride. Bartul and Miranda went above and beyond to make our vacation amazing!
- Zach, 09/09/2024 17:02, Travelled with Family
Excellent pre and post sales service, with regular follow-up from Sail Croatia with lots of useful information and a very good customer portal. Our boat Morpheus was amazing and was beautifully presented and clean. When we arrived in Dubrovnik, the Sail Croatia pre-departure service was very good. At our destination in Split, the team led by Tsvetan were very friendly and helpful….eg: in helping us to store luggage. Airport transfers were very well organised and the drivers very personable. Our skipper, Marko, was awesome……friendly, professional, safe and very knowledgable, which meant he was able to tailor our 7 days from Dubrovnik to Split perfectly to our likes and needs. A big thanks to Marko and the Sail Croatia Team for a perfect week.
- James, 04/09/2024 21:10, Travelled with Family
I think the best thing about our week was the kindest, hospitality and liveliness of our crew particular Mario. It was clear that these people went above and beyond their duties and expectations to allow us to all have an enjoyable week. Mario was a fantastic tour guide he was knowledgeable in all aspects, was very able to manage the 36 people crew and an absolute genuine mate. It was the efforts of Mario that made my experience with sail Croatia as good as it was. Highlights of the trip was definitely being able to swim off the boat in the middle of the bays or oceans that we anchored up at and just float around. All the people enjoyed this experience which allowed all of us to be on the same paper to swim, enjoy the sun and party at night. I have made lifelong friends on this trip and for this I am grateful that we chose to do sail week to see Croatia. Thank you again to Mario, Isabel, Big Daddy, George and the other crew for their hospitality over the week.

We had an unforgettable week on the Blackbird catamaran with Sail Croatia. The whole team was fantastic, and the boat was in great condition—spacious, comfortable, and perfect for our group. The highlight of our trip, though, was our incredible skipper, Nikola. His knowledge of the area, from recommending beautiful destinations to great restaurants, made the experience truly special. He was professional, thoughtful, and knew when to give us space, especially at swim spots, while always being there when needed. Nikola’s kindness, expertise, and genuine care made the week amazing. Big thanks to Nikola and the entire Sail Croatia team for an outstanding experience!

Sasa, Lucy and all the cooks and captain deserve to be paid 10x more after looking after the 42 of us for the week, honestly the best week of my life but might need to wait at least a week or 2 before going again. Sasa is a god ❤️
- Sam, 30/08/2024 19:22, Travelled with Family
Honestly the whole crew just made it awesome, Ceili especially was awesome was so helpful with giving us stuff to do, places to eat and overall just gave us the best experience possible wouldn’t change a thing and would hope if I can do it again in the future Ceili would again running things. Cheers

We had a nice trip on kingfisher. Our captain and hostess were nice and helpful on making our trip enjoyable. Thank you for a fun trip. A few recommendations yo improve the experience: 1. Please tell the guests to bring more cash for mooring fees and dinners. 2. It would be nice to spend the last night on an island vs split. You can just move check out to 10 am and that would really be a nice way to end the trip. 3. The 42 Lagoon catamaran only has 3 cabins if you use a skipper so that is an important description item as the skipper takes one of the cabins. When they sold us the catamaran they sold it to us as if it could sleep 8 people which is incorrect. It can only sleep 6 guests with a skipper.
- Jean , 22/08/2024 16:52, Travelled with Family
Dear Jean, Thank you for your review and for sharing your experience on Kingfisher. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed your trip and found the skipper and hostess helpful. We appreciate your recommendations and we agree that bringing extra cash is a good idea for mooring fees and dining, so that guests can prepare accordingly - we also outline this in our Pre-departure information provided. While we understand the desire to spend the last night on an island, late check-out is not possible due to the extensive safety checks and cleaning required before the next departure. Our website correctly states that this vessel has 4 cabins that can accommodate 8 guests. It's common in the sailing industry, particularly in Croatia, for the crew to use the salon area as a double bed if all cabins are occupied by guests. Thank you again for your valuable input, and we hope to welcome you on board again in the future.
I loved exploring the magical Croatian waters and towns with Sail Croatia. The boat was great (slept like a baby!). The food was amazing, the fellow passengers were interesting and fun, and the crew was the best. Thanks, Ivana, Josef, Sebastian, Cesar, and all, for a wonderful week!!

Beyond the beautiful islands, coves, marinas around Split, Sail Croatia (broker, not owner of the boat) has always given me complete, fast and effective preparatory information. And I assure you that I am really picky.
- Andrea, 19/08/2024 15:18, Travelled with Family
It was such an unbelievable experience, One our family will never forget. Croatia's unmatched beauty and history, paired with an excellent crew, delicious food, and new adventures each day, truly set this apart. It is hard to describe just how much we loved this trip.

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,

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
Duge and Daniel our Captain and Host were fantastic. Great at personalizing our experience and catering to our needs. Our boat, the Jublio was built in 2023 and was well maintained. We thoroughly enjoyed seeing Croatia from the sea and seeing the small island towns was very special. We would recommend sailing with Duge and Daniel on the Jublio again. We would prefer to be able to contact our team earlier than the morning of the departure however this is a company policy I believe and not particular to our crew.
- Daniel, 06/08/2024 00:47, Travelled with Family
I don't actually have the words to fully capture what a special experience our Sail Croatia trip was so I'll begin by just saying do not hesitate! Literally every part of the journey was near perfect. My family of 6 was looking to charter a boat and the sales team was helpful and super responsive to help us figure out the right vessel for our journey. We ended up booking HoundDog and it was wonderful. Prior to the actual charter the team was amazing at telling me what we needed, what we didn't need, and just making everything feel really easy. When we arrived everything was even better than expected! Our crew felt like friends on the first day. If you rent the HoundDog you'll be lucky enough to spend time with them also! The ship was perfect - pictures almost don't do it justice. But what is the hardest to capture in words is the beauty of Croatia at every stop, and the pure bliss you feel on board with every wish taken care of. This was the best vacation we have ever taken.

We had a lovely time on board the Morpheus from 15th of July till 22nd. The holiday started a bit unfortunate due to a delay of our flight and as a consequence our luggage arrived a day later than expected. Our skipper Marco suggested an alternative route which made we could easily collect our luggage the following day from Trogir. We had a lovely trip, enjoyed the islands, Marco suggested a nice itinerary which suited our family needs. He was discrete when we wanted it and available when we needed it. Overall, a wonderful experience, definitely also thanks to Marco's professional attitude. We will definitely do this again. Best regards, Koen, Veerle, Lucas, Ella and Tess

Was a great trip. We had an AMAZING skipper Kristian who made the trip really enjoyable, safe and just relaxing and memorable. The itinerary was perfect and that was because of the skipper. We did wish we could have contacted him in the week coming up to the departure. The pre departure list was very informative, just missing the ability to do laundry in the marinas as we used the same towels all week. Otherwise very professional setup, great boat, spacious and great. We where 5 adults and 3 kids (2 5 yr olds and 1 toddler 17 months)

Had a great week sailing around the islands with my wife and 3 kids. Loved the flexibility of choosing where we wanted to stop and spend the evenings. It was a nice mix of marinas and quiet bays - great way to avoid the tourist crowds and see the special side of Croatia. Our skipper was absolutely amazing - friendly, respectful and full of local knowledge. The trip was made better because of him -- if you can ask for Hrvoje (captain Jack) - he is a brilliant human! Highly recommend Sail Croatia.
- Grant, 16/07/2024 08:55, Travelled with Family
Experiencing the Dalmatian coast via a sailboat charter through Sail-Croatia is an amazing experience. You see parts of the island chain that are not frequented by many others as well as get the opportunity to visit the more known, historic towns. Our Skipper, Sinisa MARINOVIC , was incredible. He was constantly learning about what we were interested in doing and worked to ensure we were having a great time. He proved to be a great source of knowledge as well as a companion for our crew. Sail-Croatia is professional and organized. We would charter with them again.
