The guide, Anita, was excellent. Charming, efficient and most helpful. It was a joy to have such service. I cannot recommend her too much. The crew were very helpful. Food not so good- too much overcooked meat, just one fish dish in 7 days.. Good bar service. Most enjoyable party after the captain',s dinner- lots of dancing ! I did not engage in excursions, as too strenuous for my age.. Others enjoyed them.. Cabin fine and very efficient and pleasant cleaner.

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!

- Brian, 22/10/2024 07:36, Travelled with Family

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.

It's ok

- Navi, 30/09/2024 05:10, Travelled Solo

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

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!

- Geoff, 18/09/2024 14:27, Travelled with Family

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!!

- Ragnar, 20/08/2024 21:08, 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.

- Micah, 15/08/2024 14:10, Travelled with Family

Sebastian was a very great guy

- Jack, 13/08/2024 14:20, Travelled with Family

Firstly, the crew were a huge highlight of the week long sailing up the Croatian coastline on the Adriatic Sea. They were warm and welcoming, energetic, professional and made every effort to make my stay a memorable one. I cannot speak more highly of their efforts to make this week of sailing relaxing and enjoyable, leaving me with no other option but to book again for next year! Secondly. The Tempera was a beautiful ship, exceeding my expectations. Spacious rooms, large deck area for relaxing and gathering together and first class cuisine. The food was amazing! You certainly won’t be hungry! Thirdly, the destinations they chose to stop, not only in port, but also for swim stops were breathtaking. For my first cruise ship experience, this once is going to be hard to beat. Once again, thank you to the crew, our knowledge and welcoming tour leader and Sail Croatia for making my first time in Croatia one I will not forget!!

- Christopher , 06/08/2024 07:31, Travelled Solo

The crew! Anita, Nicolina & Erol were brilliant, They worked so hard. The Captain & his team kept the boat moving and immaculate and the cooks provided us with so much food but our daily interaction with the "front of house" team was lovely. Anita kept us informed about our visits and was such a friendly and helpful leader. Nicolina & Erol were just great and kept us well "watered". We were so well looked after.

- Peter, 30/07/2024 15:43, Travelled Solo

Everything about this trip was super fun and easy. The boat - Tempera was more comfortable then I expected. I stayed below deck and the cabin was cool and quiet. The shower was honestly big enough for 2 people! Lots of common space outside the cabin to find some quiet time or mingle. The crew - Friendly, competent, attentive. Nothing was too much trouble. Our Sail Croatia rep onboard was knowledgeable, personable and well organised. The food - breakfasts and lunches exceeded my expectations. The itinerary - the Explorer trip suited me perfectly. There was as much or as little as I wanted to do. Every day was the same but different - wakeup, breakfast, swim, lunch while motoring to new town, explore new town in the afternoon (with activities if desired), dinner and party... Also a shout out to my 30 shipmates. This type of holiday encourages mixing with other guests, but it never felt forced. Would do this trip again :)

- Steve, 22/07/2024 19:48, Travelled Solo

Sail Croatia was an outstanding experience. The ship was clean and comfortable, the captain and his team were outstanding, and we had an outstanding itinerary that went from Split to Dubrovnik. In between, we stopped at several islands - including Vis, Havar, and Korčula to enjoy this beautiful country. The food was good, it was plentiful, and the daily swim stops were outstanding. What made this extra special was the wonderful crew.

- Christopher Hanifin, 15/07/2024 12:46, Travelled Solo

The crew made everything so much fun.

- Eric, 11/07/2024 17:01, Travelled with Family

A ‘stand out’ holiday for my wife and I. We loved the boat, the crew and the friend we made on board. We travelled to the most beautiful island harbours and sailed on the clearest sea. We would recommend this holiday to anybody.

- Bruce, 03/07/2024 18:58, Travelled with Family

Absolutely loved our Sail Croatia trip from Dubrovnik to Spilt! Great food, great people with an awesome crew led by Nikos! Would definitely recommend!

- Nicholas , 01/07/2024 19:58, Travelled with Family

First up, Ana, our guide, was top notch and probably the best guide I've had on any trip. She provided comprehensive maps at each stop of good restaurants, museums, attractions and bars, carried herself very professionally, and was always polite and informative. She is an asset for Sail Croatia. The staff, were also brilliant. Particularly Branko on the bar. You want your bar staff to be funny, eccentric and great to have a conversation with, and Branko exceeded expectations on all three! The food was also impeccable. The Explorer cruise was also a very good crowd. Perhaps slightly older and more couples than I expected, but it suited me well. The only parts where Sail Croatia fell short for me was some of the experiences. Not having an alternative option instead of rafting (which was unavailable in Makarska on my trip) was disappointing. Even a short walk along the Cetina would have been OK. The Korcula buggy tour was also short and expensive for what it was.

- Lewis, 17/06/2024 20:51, Travelled Solo

The Explorer cruise was the perfect balance of sightseeing, relaxing and fun activities, all in a social setting with the option for some alone time. Not being the party animal I was in my 20s and having more of a disire to see the scenary and learn the history of a place, this tour was perfect. We still had the odd party and was nice and social but traded the thumping music of night clubs for jazz music on beautiful beach front restaurant. The crew and the boat was fantastic, the trip was well planned with plenty of options and flexibility to work around the weather and the best destinations. All up a fantastic week, the highlight of my 2 months abroud so far.

- Phil, 10/06/2024 07:16, Travelled Solo

Great trip everything was better than expected. Will definitely do it again.

- Anonymous, 10/06/2024 01:54, Travelled Solo

It never is one thing that makes a trip wonderful. The itinerary was fun and event filled. Lots of things to see and do or just do what you want, Beautiful boat. Lovely appointments, Enough space to be able to find a spot to enjoy some solitude but small enough to be friendly. We were blessed with beautiful weather and lovely secluded swim spots, You don't know what personalities you'll get with 30 guests but, again, this cruise was blessed with very friendly and fun folks. It was amazing how well we all got along and were appreciative of the crew. Speaking of the crew, they were spectacular!! Very friendly, accommodating and engaging folks. Always ready to lend a hand or ear and available at the drop of a hat. They were truly interested in how your day was going and that your needs were met. Our fantastic Sail Croatia rep, Vicko, was always on top of our itinerary, made sure we were aware of the days activities, upcoming adventures. Too much delicious food. I highly recommend it. Go!

- Stephen, 27/05/2024 17:45, Travelled with Family

We had a fantastic crew which made our trip so great.

- Sean, 27/05/2024 07:43, Travelled with Family

My son and I had an amazing trip with Sail Croatia. The country was beautiful. But what made the trip were the people on board and the incredible crew. Everything was relaxed, easy, and so fun. I would and am highly recommending this trip to everyone.

- Neil, 21/05/2024 12:41, Travelled with Family

I had a great experience on my explorer cruise on Salve Di Mare. Our tour director Klara had a very bubbly and friendly personality and gave recommendations for each stop we had. Captain Frane and his crew did a wonderful job on board throughout the week. This is one of the better holidays I have been on and I would sail again on Salve Di Mare in a heartbeat!

- Bobby, 07/05/2024 14:21, Travelled Solo

The combination of friendly staff, wonderful sites, and nice boat made it wonderful.

thank you so much for the trip. everything was great & the staff were all amazing

- Jan, 11/10/2023 02:14, Travelled Solo

Wasn’t the cruise I planned from start, that was booked up. Was suggested Salve de Mare and so happy I did. From start to finish everything went better then expected. The ship and especially her crew we’re just a great friendly caring bunch on and off the ship. Klara our rep was just wonderful, organised some great tours, hung out with us day and nights, an infectious laugh that can’t be forgotten. All the guests were amazing, great age range on board and we all got along. I definitely enjoyed myself. Thank you Sail Croatia for making it possible, Klara and Crew of Salve de Mare for making it special and the guests for making it unforgettable.

- Anthony, 19/09/2023 07:25, Travelled Solo

Everything was organized very well. Food on board was great. Clean modern rooms with on suite bathrooms and showers. Relaxing experience visiting various islands of Croatia. Also daily swimming off boat was great with provided water equipment such as swimming goggles, floaters, and foot fins.

- Ronen, 02/09/2023 20:36, Travelled Solo

Katarina is an amazing ship, Very luxurious. Ivan (The Captain) and his crew were very knowledgably, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our experience that much more special. The food aboard Katarina is amazing and the service is no different. Stjepan our leader was very well spoken, humorous, and full of knowledge of his country. You could tell he has a real passion for his history and taking care of his group. Would definitely go again!!

- Brandan, 31/08/2023 18:47, Travelled Solo

Steve, and the Katarina crew made for an unforgettable experience. From great food to expert advise on what to do at each stop. I could not have wished for a better atmosphere on board, and cannot recommend a better way of exploring the beautiful islands and the crystal clear water that the Adriatic Sea and Croatia have to offer.

- Anonymous, 30/08/2023 13:18, Travelled Solo

Had the most amazing week in Croatia aboard the Almissa. The boat was clean and very comfortable, and all the staff were amazing from the sailors to Tina and Rocco behind the bar and our representative Vicko. I only had slight issues falling asleep the first couple of nights as the boat was a bit louder than expected but I got used to it during the trip. The provided breakfasts and lunches were also very tasty with very generous portions but I will say maybe a different brand of coffee or machine as the coffee wasn't the best. Thankyou again for the amazing week, can't wait to come back!

- Anthony , 28/08/2023 11:52, Travelled Solo

Vicko was the ultimate guide - friendly, knowledgeable and he made sure he interacted with all the different passengers. The crew were all amazing, especially as the captain was a bit sick for a few days but you wouldn’t have noticed as everyone was so professional. Of course the real star is beautiful Croatia itself, but the tour was everything we hoped for and more. I can’t speak highly enough of the whole experience and would love to do it again one day.

- Marcus, 25/08/2023 06:23, Travelled with Family

Had the best week on sail!!! Everything from the crew to the delicious food was on point! Our tour manager Boris was helpful in every way possible! Pointing us in the right direction for restaurants, bars or beaches in which we could just chill out. His daily speeches about each island / port were very informative and he always had the whole boat laughing with his presentation and sense of humour! 10/10 for Boris!

- Craig, 21/08/2023 16:09, Travelled with Family

This was our first time on a small boat cruise and it was amazing! We were a group of 6 within an overall group of 32 and we really got to know the rest of the sailers. That’s not possible on the large cruise ships. The crew and our tour rep were amazing too and we saw them working up close every day which again was very different. However, the star of the holiday was Croatia as it’s now our favourite destination in Europe and we’ve been everywhere in Europe! The scenery and the locations were incredible! We would now holiday in certain locations just based on spending one afternoon/ evening there e.g. Makarska, Korcula and Hvar and also Brac which we spent 2 days on prior to the cruise. The zip line excursion in Cetina was my personal highlight as that was a first for me and was amazing! The Game of Thrones tour in Dubrovnik runs that a close second as the guide (also called Ivana!) was really knowledgeable and it was a stunning location. I’d recommend this cruise to everyone !

- Danny , 21/08/2023 05:12, Travelled with Family

Great ship, fantastic crew, incredible island stops, excellent range of activities, superb shipmates and to top it off we had the best of the best.....Ivana!

Combination of a number of things - a very nice boat (Salve di Mare), good food, a fantastic guide (Ioana), excellent bar staff (Ivan in particular was brilliant), great choice of stops and swim stops and a nice group dynamic.

- Tom, 07/08/2023 09:59, Travelled with Family

This was my second time with Sail Croatia, and once again, it was a brilliant trip. A beautiful boat, a great crew and our fantastic tour leader, Dora, made the tour unforgettable.

- Michael, 27/07/2023 12:32, Travelled Solo

The ship is beautiful, the destinations are fantastic and diverse, and our guide (Ioana) did a phenomenal job. She was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and fun to be around the entire time. She went out of her way constantly to ensure that everyone was happy and having a good time -- give this gal a raise!!

- Austin, 13/07/2023 13:56, Travelled with Family

The staff and everything on the boat was top quality. Fully enjoyed my stay on the Salve di Mare, and this is the only way I plan to visit Europe! I highly recement .

We absolutely loved the Sail Croatia Split-to-Split trip on the Princess Diana. The ship was larger and nicer than we expected and very well maintained. The captain and crew were top notch. We especially enjoyed Boris and Erol who were the waiters, they always provided great service with a smile. The food was also really good. The mix of relaxing time, swim stops and activities was really good too. And a huge shout out to Ivana, our onboard tour director, she was always working so hard to make a smooth and enjoyable trip for everyone on board. She really went over and above and made the trip run really smoothly. She provided a lot of valuable information and did a really great job all week. It was also nice having the other guests onboard and we enjoyed spending time with them and getting to know them. Overall, a really great way to visit multiple port cities in Croatia and we'd highly recommend Sail Croatia!

- Thomas, 03/07/2023 17:49, Travelled with Family

We had the most fantastic week (24th June 2023) with Sail Croatia on the Princeza Diana. We were so fortunate to have a fantastic group of fellow travellers on our boat, within hours we were terrific friends and by the end of the week, we were so sad to be leaving one another. The Sail Croatia team, in particular, our hostess Ivanna really bought the group together and made the trip such a once-in-a-lifetime experience. They were so organised, so helpful and so friendly and we couldn't recommend them more highly. We are an Australian family of 4, husband and wife, with 2 daughters 21 and 19. We spent a lot of time researching the best boat for our various age groups and we really nailed it with the Sail Croatia Explorer cruises. If you are looking for the best way to visit Croatia and see the beautiful islands of the Adriatic then don't hesitate to book with Sail Croatia, you won't regret it.

all the people were really great. Including staff. I found that I developed relationships with a few of the staff members on board which made the trip even better. Destinations beautiful and vjeko ensured everyone got the most out of every island.

A great bunch of people to travel with A great tour guide (Mila) was exceptional The crew were good especially Maryan Good food thanks to the chef One complaint is the fact that there was a spare room and a very shy young lady asked if she could have her own room instead of boarding with a complete stranger. I was discussed to hear that your company charged her an extra $600 euro in cash on top of what she had already paid that was cruel Steve Whitmore

- Stephen , 14/06/2023 11:41, Travelled with Family

This trip was amazing....a little relaxing, exploring, adventures, meeting new friends and it was all planned out for you! Our host, Vicko was incredible too! What could be better than to sit back relax and enjoy! Thank you Sail Croatia! We want to go on some of your other trips!

- Jordan, 13/06/2023 20:29, Travelled with Family

Fantastic cruise with great people who made the experience even better. Dino worked hard to make sure the cruise itinerary was best for the weather which ensured we had the best opportunities to see and do as much as possible.

I can't Say enough about my cruise, I did it with my Sister and the Crew was amazing, Steve, our cruise director was informative and a pleasure to be around, The food was great, The boat was very clean, the stops were great, I have been telling all my friends about it, As I have been to 58 countries, many multiple times, People listen to what I say.. Only thing that could have made it better is Stand up Paddle boards & Kayaks Regards, Myles McGinn

- Myles, 01/11/2022 20:04, Travelled with Family

Such a great way to explore Croatia, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. The cabins were nice considering your on a boat. Our host Ioana was extremely knowledgeable and friendly which made the experience that much better! Sometimes I wish we had spent two nights at some of the bigger destinations like Havr but otherwise great experience! the excursions and activities organised by Ioana were fun and you didn’t have to worry about planning things and just enjoy and relax your time on holidays
