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.

We were a group of friends (8) who joined Sail Croatia for the Dubrovnik to Split 7 day cruise. The cabins were comfortable, the bathroom more spacious than the normal cruise ship. With only 40 people onboard I was concerned that we would be in each others pockets. There is more than enough space onboard to ensure you can read a book quietly if you want. The staff on our cruise (Salve de Mere) were supurb, from the maid throufg to the Captain, we were all in excellent hands. I loved the fact that we docked in small ports each night so we could enjoy local restaurants and bars. Each morning we stopped for a swim...as it was late season a few of us decamped to the jaquizzi where we had pre lunch cocktails...great fun! Each afternoon we were given options of excursions we could take, from walking and exploring, to bike rides and wine tasting. I would probably give the Buggies a miss as you travel in convoy at about 20kms per hour...very boring and a waste of money..

We researched well and glad we did - it was well worth it. We selected the Katarina with Sail Croatia. The booking process was simple and efficient. We had the assurance the vessel we selected would be the one we sailed on. To our pleasant surprise, the vessel and crew exceeded our high expectations. Overall, between bareboat charter and cruise ships, this is the right size boat, right size crew and right size of guests. That we could tie up every night and free to come and go without water ferry made it extra special - like yachting. Very pleased and we highly recommend Katarina and her crew with Sail Croatia.

The staff, the food, the itineraries, the tours and the beautiful and spacious rooms made this cruise a number 10 in our book. We needed for nothing. It was very organized, clean and the food and service was excellent. Would highly recommend it as a must do. Thanks to the staff members. We appreciate all your hard work. Paul and Lorraine

My partner and I and a friend sailed the 7 day cruise with Deano and crew. The complete trip was great and Deano helped with advice, guidance and recommendations for the trip. Everything this he advised was spot on and we could not ask for any more. Deano even assisted to locate and track our lost luggage and have it delivered to the boat. Could not recommend more and would like to sail again in future, Eoin Australia

We travelled on Salve Di Mare. The boat was awesome. The people we met along the way were also fantastic. We had the best week. Nothing was an issue for the crew and our guide, Vitcho, made sure all was in hand and was able to cater for many different guest preferences for on-board and off-board activities. Highly recommend.

What an amazing trip. Our group of four couples chose Sail Croatia due to its unique vessel size (16-20 cabins) and itinerary. Our expectations were exceeded by Vicko, the Sail Croatia representative on the trip, as he made sure all of our problems were solved, and we had an amazing trip - he is one of a kind and absolutely the Croation fixer! The crew of the Salve di Mare was fantastic. The boat was clean, the room sizes were surprisingly large, and they all worked to make sure we had everything we needed - plus great food and drink. Make sure to take opportunities to go off the beaten path - find unique experiences and take advantage of the ones the Sail Croatia team provides where it suits your interests. We were able to discover so much - we ate a fish the owner of a restaurant speared that morning and cleaned on the dock. We took a rowboat to a monastery on an island. We climbed a mountain (ok hill) overlooking a beautiful town on the Adriatic. Take this trip!

What a great trip and sail, Crew did an amazing job, and we're always happy and friendly. Food was great, our cruise director Nikkos was always ready to help, and did a great job organizing our excursions. We will highly recommend sail Croatia and the ship Katerina to my friends and family. 😀

- Piper Lori Hoffmann , 17/09/2024 14:02, Travelled with Friend/s

We thoroughly enjoyed our cruise on the Tempera. The staff and crew were fantastic keeping us fully informed of the daily itinerary and working hard to make our holiday as comfortable as possible. The food served onboard was excellent with a range of tasty well presented dishes. Dino our Sail Croatia cruise director was friendly and polite with an excellent knowledge of the local towns we visited. The boat was looking a little tired in places but this did not spoil our holiday in anyway. Would we use Sail Croatia again ? Absolutely!😁

- Graham, 16/09/2024 12:45, Travelled with Friend/s

Dino our Tempera tour manager was great. Funny and neat. The crew were exceptional- Branco works so hard as do the fantastic chefs and the rest of the crew from captain to sailor and maid- you were all too perfect! The meals were way too good! Thankyou all!!

The Yacht was beautiful and nicely equipped and the staff was helpful and friendly. Nicos from Sail Croatia was very helpful with all the guests and requests. Was truly a trip of a lifetime.

- Darren, 13/09/2024 14:03, Travelled with Friend/s

Our host, Dino, was fantastic. He and the Captain made the necessary adjustments to our route so we could see the significant sites yet be protected from the weather. Dino was outstanding at communicating the daily agenda and making recommendations. He was very engaging and a key reason for the fun we all had. The group size was ideal for giving us all an opportunity to meet one another.

The Katarina crew, along with our Guide, Nikos, made our week aboard the Katarina a memorable experience. The Katarina and crew made everything about being on vacation relaxing. From the minute we boarded, the crew and staff took care of our every need. The swim stops and choice of adventures made staying active and immersing ourselves into all Croatia had to offer easy. Nikos was wonderful keeping our group of 36 busy and organized, suggesting activities and wonderful restaurants at each stop. Thank you for a wonderful week!

- Renee, 05/09/2024 21:20, Travelled with Friend/s

I appreciated the friendliness and camaraderie of the staff. Klara was very helpful with booking restaurants and activities. I especially appreciated how honest she was about the excursions.

The boat, Katrina was unbelievably clean and well kept. The Katrina crew was helpful, friendly, and on time. The rooms aboard Katrina were clean and maintained that way throughout the sail. Katrina is staffed by a family that works together and takes pride in all they do. They made the trip easy, stress free, and fun.

- PETER, 04/09/2024 10:33, Travelled with Friend/s

Crew/staff on Katerina were the best and made our trip fantastic!

- Tom, 03/09/2024 05:28, Travelled with Friend/s

This review speaks specifically about the KATARINA and it's crew. Hardly anyone on our trip (we had the entire boat) had experience with island hopping in this region, or with Sail Croatia. After a few days of being on the boat, and seeing other boats, crews and visitors in various ports, we knew that somehow we hit the lottery. You can always find something that could have gone better on a trip, but I am struggling to. The boat was newer, very clean, very well maintained and the captain and crew were amazing. All travel related aspects of the trip were explained by the captain personally, and he even offered tours of the engine room and bridge. The servers/bartenders were very efficient and best if all, intuitive. The maid service worked around passenger movements/activities.

- Glen, 02/09/2024 16:53, Travelled with Friend/s

Whole trip was excellent. Boat was clean and well maintained. The crew of the boat were first class, very friendly and always went out of their way to help. The sail Croatia guide was excellent. Good recommendations and clear communication about activities and the itinerary. All the swim stops and harbour stops were great. Everywhere we stopped had great things to see/do. We didn't do loads of the excursions but they had plenty of choices and those we did were great. Food on the boat was delicious, varied and plentiful, couldn't have asked for much more.

I took the trip with a friend, leaving and returning to Split in August 2024 on the Mali Ante. The whole went very well. The ship itself was great, clean, well-managed and crew were great. Split and Dubrovnik were inevitably crowded, but the other stops were really enjoyable. At around 35° the cabin remained perfectly cool. Overall I can find nothing which could have been better, I would full recommend.

The boat, the crew is unbelievable, sailed on Almissa 6 years ago, it was so good we did it again. The cruise was just how remembered it, so much fun and so much to see and do. Every meal on Almissa was on point, would recommend Almissa to anyone.

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!!

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 :)

Had such a great time on Sail Croatia. I was so lucky that the group of 30 people were fantastic to travel with, kind, warm and very sociable - all ages all fantastic. Our nights where we were all together were definitely the best. Ivana our host did an amazing job, she was really friendly, professional and informative but most of all reallt authetic - a great representative for Sail Croatia. Nikolina and Errol the other front of house staff were exceptional and continually went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The 3 staff were stars, thank you.

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.

The sail Croatia tour leader (not going to try and spell his name) was very knowledgeable on history of the country. I would recommend this boat any day and you will not be disappointed. Thank you for making our holiday memorable Team Tempera.

An amazing week and excelled my expectations on all levels. Great group of people on board both the team and guests with a great relaxed vibe throughout. Karla our guide was absolute amazing, extremely down to earth, approachable with a positive attitude that reflects in her passion for the job and she is truly an asset to the business. Her daily recommendations for restaurants, bars, sightseeing and tours were always on point and greatly appreciated. The boat itself was great and the whole crew on board did an awesome job making the trip a great experience. Looking forward to the next one!

- Michael, 06/07/2024 06:10, Travelled with Friend/s

From the outset the trip was outstanding! I think what made it even more special/better is we had the entire ship with 30 of our lifelong friends and family. Perhaps all ships are operated similarly, but ours was a family run operation so there was just a great dynamic among all. Extremely pleasant and accommodating at all times. Truly they were like ninjas always in the shadows working and cleaning keeping the ship spotless all the while ensuring every whim and desire was fulfilled. (Bonus: shower water pressure was great!) Our cruise director Klara was splendid, knowledgeable af and always giving us great guidance on the variety of excursions at each port, the ATMs for better currency exchange along with the best restaurant, clubs and bars to frequent. She was fun and energetic and would join us as well as help expedite, if necessary. An absolute memorable 5-Star once in a lifetime (maybe 2 or 3x ;) ) trip. When you get to Split or return Mistral Beach Club is a MUST! !Cheers

I booked the entire ship of 18 cabins and then filled them with family and friends from all over the US. It felt like summer camp. Every morning at breakfast you had the 'early birds" followed by the "hungover last minute crowd". We ranged in age from 19 to 62, and had a blast. The excursions were fun and very different from stop to stop. The staff was outstanding and really only had to go to one person, and not manage 18 personalities. Our cruise director Klara was the best. I would go again.

- Brad, 01/07/2024 20:07, Travelled with Friend/s

The entire crew were great. They took care of all of needs and requests with a smile. They worked so hard to make sure that our trip went smoothly. The swim stops were great in the clean blue water. All locations had a different feel and provided a great variety of the Croatian lifestyle.

We had a very amicable, enthusiastic and knowledgeable tour guide on a very comfortable boat (Salve di Mare). Nickos delivered good local information and history of our destinations throughout the trip. The destinations were good (though very busy with other tourists, though we had to expect that) weather quite warm (hotter as the days went on) so swim stops were enjoyed. The crew were also very good, efficient and helpful And we also had a like group of fellow travellers all out to have a good time with whatever the day brought. Very happy with your product, Thank you.

Lola was outstanding. She was very professional and handled everything perfectly. The crew was great. Worked very hard to keep everything running nicely. The boat was always perfectly clean and tidy. The food was terrific. The boat was very nice and clearly very well cared for. A couple of the excursions could have been better, but Lola did a nice job of making the best of it. For example: On the buggy ride, one of the buggies wasn’t working when we were ready to return from the beach and blocked 3 of us in. The buggy operators left us and we were stranded with little idea of how to get back to the boat. But thank you to Lola for addressing the problem with the operators to everyone’s satisfaction. .
