Excellent Ship with wonderful crew. Chef prepared meals were great. Our tour manager Ioana was fantastic. Destinations were wonderful made even more memorable by the other passenger where everyone got along famously.

What an adventure! Sailing on the Olimp was fantastic. First, the cruise leader, Ioana. Wow. Dynamic, organized, fun. Not sure the cruise would have been the same without her leading the way. The ship itself was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was helpful to make sure all our needs were met. Beautiful destinations and fun history tours. Even though we were traveling with friends, the new friends we made helped make things even better. Would be happy to go again.

Wonderful ship and crew were very accommodating.

The ship, Olmp, was immaculate and the crew always helpful. With only 36 passengers the experience was very personal and we were fortunate to have a very interesting and homogenous group . The meals served were all delicious but the service was a little too efficient for me. I prefer a slower pace while eating. The only meal that I would avoid n the future is the so called "BBQ". Definitely not up t the chefs usually high standards. The Sail Croatia cruise is a great way to sample all that Croatia has to offer. Our cruise director, Ioana, added another dimension to our touring experience. We all had a wonderful and educational experience on the cruise

Great ship, great guide, great crew, great experiences, and great companions, made for a remarkable journey and wonderful vacation.

We had a wonderful time on our Elegance Cruise. We've only been on one cruise before and that was a huge ship; it was so impersonal. With Sail Croatia, there were just 18 cabins, it was so much more intimate and we made new friends from around the world. The captain, crew and our cruise director Ioana couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. The Croatian coastline and islands are spectacular; we saw architecture and history we never knew existed; and the people were a joy. We highly recommend you do the same if you get the chance.

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.

- Donald, 18/10/2024 15:09, Travelled with Family

My first experience on a yacht/small cruise ship. All of the crew aboard the Olimp were fabulous in their efforts to make our cruise enjoyable. It was obvious that all of the crew take pride in their work and they were all excellent in executing their duties. Our Sail Croatia host, Ioanna, was also fabulous. She kept us informed and fostered camaraderie amongst all of the guests. She was exceptional at that! Ioanna also planned some excellent walking tours of Croatia which included visits to historic sites, national parks, family farms, beaches, jeep tours and restaurants. The food on the yacht was great! Great chef! Great Captain! Thank you for the several swim stops at beautiful, remote locations. That was something that one rarely gets to do. All in all, a great vacation and I highly recommend a cruise on the Olimp!

- William, 17/10/2024 11:02, Travelled in a Couple

i certainly would recommend sail Croatia , we sailed on the Olimp the staff and tour guide were great, nothing was problem

- jamie, 16/10/2024 22:51, Travelled in a Couple

Location, location, location...Croatia is absolutely beautiful! The boat and the crew was fantastic as well. The passengers (36 of us) got along extremely well and we made some amazing friends. I would highly recommend this location, company, boat, and crew.

- Michael, 15/10/2024 11:06, Travelled in a Couple

Every aspect of the cruise was great: the ship, the itinerary and of course the staff, especially Ioana, the representative from Sail Croatia. Lots of great memories and pictures!

The people

- Steve, 15/10/2024 02:14, Travelled with Friend/s

The crew was fantastic. Very friendly and accommodating. We were kept informed on a daily meeting about changes and weather situations concerning our travels. V our guide was great, suggesting restaurants and other things about the Croatia people. I would choose to do this trip again. It was a vacation of a lifetime! Most people were not happy that coffee couldn't be have after 9:00 am.

- Rick, 10/10/2024 17:24, Travelled with Friend/s

I am totally impressed with Sail Croatia's attention to detail in all aspects of our adventure. All staff members respond quickly and are always there to help. On the boat, our guide, Karolina, was knowledgeable and very personable. All the crew was pleasant and enjoyable. The ports were great and gave us a sense of Croatia's past history. This is such a great company we brought along another couple as this was our second sailing with Sail Croatia. Kudos!

- Dennis , 09/10/2024 20:31, Travelled in a Couple

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

Staff was great. Especially Klara and Pamela. We enjoyed the swim stops and island stops. The meals were so so too much fish for my liking. They’ve in our room didn’t work for 1/2 the week. The tours were great, Capains dinner/dance and wine tours as well I would include gratuity in the price and/or arrange for credit card payments for on board liquor purchases for some people I spoke to were surprised they needed so much euros at the end of the trip which may have an effect on gratuity’s We would highly recommend Sail Croatia to anyone that asks us

- Rick, 08/10/2024 13:54, Travelled with Friend/s

Great crew all round. Extremely professional and courteous. Very high standards of comfort and cleanliness. Very professional Tour guide , perfect touch and interaction with all passengers. Only complaint is breakfast is too early to close at 9.00am, also it was a direct shut down at that time. Even at 9.o5 am the coffee and tea was closed, leaving the only option was to purchase. Tea and coffee. That station should be available all day subject to cruising condition.

- Graham, 08/10/2024 09:07, Travelled in a Couple

Amazing tour of different Croatian towns/cities, daily swims, smaller cruise ship that allows getting to know your cruise partners. Klara is terrific as our tour guide. Great leadership and communication skills. Would highly recommend it. Definitely more intimate and exciting than the larger cruise ships.

- Patrick, 08/10/2024 00:36, Travelled in a Couple

Firstly I was nervous being on a small cruise (36 pax) as I have had bad experiences with cruises before. But the vibe on the boat when we arrived welcomed and exhilarated us with the extremely high standards and quality of the Olimp and it's fine crew. The captain (Yure) was every friendly, inviting and pleasant to spend time with. The rest of the crew were similar. Vedran was very pleasurable to listen to, knowledgeable about the places we visited and funny in his deliveries of daily instructions and when also answering any of a miriad of questions thrown his way. We met as strangers but after 8 days of fine cruising, dining and activities we all left as good friends! I cannot recommend this trip highly enough and will look forward to my next trip on the Olimp.

- Christopher, 07/10/2024 08:39, Travelled in a Couple

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.

- Stephen, 05/10/2024 23:50, Travelled with Family

From the first moment stepping on board the holiday engendered a sense of anticipation and excitement. A delightful boat welcoming crew and guide what more could be wanted. The following days fulfilled all the initial promise. Excellent accommodation, superb food along with crew and staff who worked hard to provide the perfect holiday. Every day provided new experiences from swimming off the boat to the rich tapestry of each island visited. Croatia is a beautiful country with a long history and a very friendly welcoming people. The colour of the sea has to be seen to be believed. A holiday to remember.

- Peter, 04/10/2024 19:21, Travelled in a Couple

We dare you to find a comparable cruise with so few passengers at such an affordable price — anywhere in the world. Though we vacation in Europe every year, we had never taken a cruise because we dread the thought of a big ship with hundreds if not thousands of passengers. Sail Croatia is intimate (38 people max!), fun and casual (pack lightly). The meals are not only gourmet and delicious, they’re photogenic. Our cruise director (Karolina) was attentive, informative and a delight to be around. The crew was hard working and aimed to please. Croatia is stunningly beautiful. Its towns are easy to navigate and remarkably uncrowded during our September visit. Crime is virtually nonexistent. And if you should happen to find a similar cruise elsewhere, let us know.

- Greg and Debbie, 02/10/2024 20:08,

Our cruise was made fantastic by the amazing staff on the boat. They made sure everything was 1st class and made us feel happy. Boris and Stella were amazing and friendly towards us. The Chef and his staff did a fantastic job and every meal was presented 5star and tasted delicious. The sailors were friendly and always up for a chat and would help/do anything for us. Our room was kept clean daily by the maid she was lovely. The captain was fantastic and made sure we were always safe, very professional and great experienced operator for a young man, the captains dinner was a fun night. Last of all the magnificent cruise director Ioana (Jo) she was brilliant, entertaining and funny. We meet some very nice people from all over the globe, I highly recommend this to anyone

Beautiful boat, charming crew, delicious food, great host and fun passengers. Good excursions too. Crew and guide really tried to make the trip as good as possible given the sailing conditions. Really enjoyed it. Thank you! Some ideas: Be nice to have had breakfast outside on the boat deck Would rather have paid the bar bill on a card than in cash Tables of 8 or 10 better than 9 one couple had to split up Excursions accompanied by detailed printed material.

- Hector, 01/10/2024 08:40, Travelled in a Couple

The Olimp crew was fantastic and the sail exceeded Our expectations. Having only 35 guests allowed us to meet and engage with everyone. All of the guests were super friendly, fun and interesting. Loved every minute of the cruise.

- Peter, 27/09/2024 00:41, Travelled in a Couple

Croatia is a great place to explore and sailing is a great way to vacation. The ship is beautiful and has a wonderful crew to insure your time spent is enjoyable. We met fabulous people on the cruise and in every port.

- Jeff, 26/09/2024 15:44, Travelled with Friend/s

A wonderful trip with fantastic crew, everything and more than we had hoped for. Great walks and excursions with information that helped us try and get our heads around the history and country. Thanks to Vedran whose daily talks were awaited with great anticipation - "you read us like an open book". Thanks Cruise Croatia for putting together such an enjoyable itinerary, with wonderful crew.

- Kevin , 25/09/2024 08:17, Travelled in a Couple

The professional and casual pace that that it travels at. We met great people, made new friends and had a fantastic time The ship, OLIMP was immaculately kept and the cabins very comfortable. Everything worked well.

We reserved a few years ago but then the COVID Pandemic landed. We had to cancel and Sail Croatia were so great to deal with. A full refund no hassle. We rebooked six months ago and just returned home. We were on the ESperanza Dubrovnik return. Boarding was easy. We met with Mia the cruise director. Such a lovely warm kind person. She was so organised . We got great information and recommendations where to go when ashore. The food was very good . Anna and Antonio were our servers and bar tenders. Nothing was too much trouble to them. The weather was not the best but the captain and the sailors had to rearrange the itinerary to avoid the rough seas at times. We felt safe at all times and managed swim stops in secluded bays every day. Overall we loved it. We made new friends who we will keep in contact with. Two small areas that could improve. The hairdryer in the room wasn't great so I'm told. Also the ladders for getting back onboard after swimming need to be longer. Excellent.

- John Philip Collins , 19/09/2024 18:40, Travelled in a Couple

We had a fabulous time on the Esperanza. The boat is very spacious (the rooms are bigger than those mega cruise ships). The facilities in the room are clean and the water pressure surprisingly strong. All the included food was varied and very tasty and we loved the organzied outcomings such as the Stari Grad Village dinner which was incredible. The onboard staff was fantastic and special Kudo's to Mia the tour organizer and Antonio in the restaurant/bar. The whole tour is a great way to see Croatia.

- Evan Ferguson, 19/09/2024 16:26, Travelled in a Couple

Another wonderful cruise on the Queen Jelena. The boat was as beautiful as last time, as were the crew, the food and the Croatian Islands. Organisation was impeccable, and our host, Vedran, was attentive, knowledgeable and very good company.

It was a fantastic ship to cruise on The staff were professional and the meals top notch Not one complaint Our tour director on board was friendly , helpful and thoroughly professional We would recommend Sail Croatia and the Olimp to anyone thinking of sailing along the coastline of Croatia

- Geoffrey, 17/09/2024 06:28,

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

- John, 17/09/2024 05:00, Travelled with Family

The boat, the crew, the places we visited were all outstanding. Not to mention the excellent mix of our fellow cruisers. Now even less likely to go on a big cruise!

A really good mix of activities - swimming along the way, visits to old towns and beautiful islands, wineries and interesting places together with a great crew who looked after us very well. Karolina was just exceptional and made our cruise so much more than just a cruise.

- Geoff, 10/09/2024 16:10,

We visited some great islands all of which had a different experience and activity to participate in if we wanted to . The Captain , crew and our host were amazing and nothing was too much trouble . The facilities on the boat were great with more than enough space for people to relax . This was our first ever cruise and I believe we have started with the best as I don’t believe any other would come close . I must also say the other guests from all different walks of life and country’s also plaid a big part in making an unforgettable week . Highlight of the week for us was the Captains dinner with live musicians encouraging all of us to join in with songs that we all knew !

We had a memorable time on this Elegance cruise. with Sail Croatia. The fellow passengers, the crew and our guide, Carolina all added to our very enjoyable experience.. Esperanza is well equipped, clean and comfortable with excellent food. The places we visited and the swim stops were all brilliant. Would certainly do it again.

The ship was beautiful and comfortable, the cruise director was very funny and knowledgeable and the crew was very professional, competent, friendly and helpful.. We enjoyed it thoroughly! It was extremely hot during the cruise and the swim stops were a wonderful way to cool off but it was hard to stay cool on the boat. The food was good but lunches were a bit heavy for my tastes and drinks were a bit on the weak side. Stops and excursions were interesting and informative - could have skipped Milna -may be replace with Trogir or a night not in port with 2nd swim stop and simple light dinner on the ship.
