Fabulous!

Anita, our Tour manager was fantastic! Always thinking on all the passengers and making sure we had a great time. The cabins were comfortable, spacious. The food was very good with varieties. I will definitely repeat soon with Sail Croatia.

Fantastic Adventure

Our Tour Manager, and a professional crew The Group of wonderful people ( now friends) Croatia experience first time. Excellent planned Wine Cruise., very comfortable ship (Jelena) Reducing the rating from 5* to 4* only because the wine tastings fell short of my expectations.

Perfect autumn break

The trip was great for my restricted mobility. The railings on all walkways and stairwells made walking around the ship possible. The crew were always available to offer a helping hand or arm. One of the sailors - Mario - was exceptionally thoughtful. He carried my mobility scooter on and off the boat, storing and charging it overnight. He was sensitive to my fears, crossing from boat to boat, offering encouragement and praise, as well as physical help. Wonderful intuitive personal skills!

Beautiful

The boat was handsome and comfortable. The food was delicious. The crew was responsive and funny and kind. And the islands were a sight to behold.

Great experience to do a private yacht tour

We had a great time on our private catamaran tour in early October 2024. When I asked family members what their top parts of the trip were, they said "the amazing coves that our captain took us to for private swimming and relaxing," "the fabulous food that our hostess cooked for us every day", and the wine and food we found along the islands. October was a great time to travel around beautiful Croatia without crowds, and while there were some limits in that restaurants or shops were sometimes closed and the weather was less predictable, it ended up being a terrific trip. Every step of the way (including a post-trip excursion) was supported by both the administrative teams and the sailing teams.

Stylish way to see Croatia

Sailed on the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik and back. It was great to visit some smaller destinations. We were extremely well looked after by all the crew. A special mention has to go to our guide Ioana who brought her energy every day.

- Wendy, 16/10/2024 08:13, Travelled with Family

Fabulous

We travelled up the Croatian Coast in Oct. 2024. The trip was simply terrific. The itinerary was first rate, the crew could not do enough to accommodate us, the ship was beautiful, and the food was better than restaurants. Overall we are recommending this type of travel, with Sail Croatia, to all of our friends.

Excellent trip

Ioana and the crew

- Georgette, 14/10/2024 19:24, Travelled with Family

Memorable holiday

The ship was comfortable and quite luxurious. Staff were very helpful and always pleasant The food was excellent. Congratulations to the chefs The cabin was cleaned daily and towels and bedding changed. Well done to the maid The captain changed the route when necessary to enjoy a safe venue and sheltered areas to swim. Being able to use the drop down platform enabled me to enjoy the daily swim stop. I would not have been able to do the swimming without it. Captain and crew did everything to enhance our experience. The travel guide V was amazing. He was very knowledgeable and friendly with a great sense of humour. All in all a very positive and memorable trip. I woul highly recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you Sail Croatia and staff of Olimp.

Amazing Experience

We travelled on the Katarina from Split return. It was so much fun and the scenery spectacular. If I had to suggest one thing that is a must I would say you need to book on the Katarina. It is a family run yacht and they honestly treat you like family. It was 5 star from start to finish.

- Sandy, 14/10/2024 09:36, Travelled with Family

Memorable

The crew was fantastic, the people that were guests were amazing, and the planning that went into making it all happen was incredible! We felt that the tour was very thoughtful and it made the most of what the weather and the islands had to offer. We have done the Sail Croatia tour once before seven years previous to this trip. We felt just as good about it and that is why we returned.

- Colette, 08/10/2024 15:55, Travelled with Family

Amazing Hike Trip

Our plan was to do the E-bike trip but it was full so we decided to jump on the hike trip! We definitely made a good decision!! Mate and Karla did such an amazing job accommodating everyone! They both really love their country and love to share it with everyone!! We were able to go off on our own and rent bikes/mopeds if we chose to change things up a bit! We met so many great people from all over the world! We highly recommend sailing with this group!

- Carol, 08/10/2024 10:02, Travelled with Family

Fantastic experience!

My sister and I had a great trip on the Tempera ship. What more can I say about the amazing crew, the 5 star meals, the swim stops and the experiences that were set up by our hard-working, devoted ship activity director, Ioana. The small ship atmosphere is the way to go. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia.

Sail Croatia Explorer's trip

Really enjoyed the crew! Ioana was absolutely amazing and always replied so quickly. Food was excellent but you need good hot coffee. (This seemed to be the consensus) Room was perfect. Really enjoyed the whole experience, thank you!

Great Sail Croatia Hiking Trip

We were on the Colombo boat with Bruno and an excellent crew. They were polite, efficient, hard working, friendly and very good at their jobs. Our guides Mate and Karla were fantastic! They were knowledgeable, fun, interesting and dealt with our group exceedingly well. They were motivating and lovely. They really made the trip special. We also had a group of wonderful like minded people taking the tour which made it even more fun. Thank you Sail Croatia for a very memorable holiday. 🤗🙏

Cycle trip

Friendly staff. Well organized guides. Clean ship

- Anonymous, 02/10/2024 08:07, Travelled with Family

Just Fantastic!

We traveled with family and friends - everyone had a connection to at least one other person and my sister - the organizer - had done a cruise on the Mali Ante the year before, so certainly all of that familiarity contributed, but the trip was just a wonderful combination of exercise, relaxation, wonderful people, perfect weather and idyllic destinations. I don't remember ever being that relaxed and content.

- Debbie, 30/09/2024 18:12, Travelled with Family

A week to remember

What a wonderful week on Tempra Explorer Cruise this week. The crew were extremely helpful and attentive. The chef was masterful in his approach to Croatian cuisine. Lovely presentations and always supremely delicious. Our Sail Croatia host Victor was such a positive influence. He is funny and very knowledgeable. Our cabin was easily large enough for 2 adults and good size bathroom and shower. Loved this cruise!

- Diane, 30/09/2024 16:02, Travelled with Family

Fabulous

The staff MADE the trip! Ivica, Andro, and Andres were wonderful. I will certainly ask to be on their boat when we book again😍

- Alexandra, 30/09/2024 06:14, Travelled with Family

Fantastic Week

Dino was amazing, so helpful and knowledgeable, provided wonderful recommendations and was always available. The staff was awesome, couldn’t have asked for nicer people. The boat was nice and spotless. Would and will highly recommend to others

Amazing trip

Loved my 7 day cruise on Almissa! Every day waking up to stunning Croatian islands, towns and cities was such a fantastic experience with options to do as much or little as you want. Almissa the boat was clean and well equipped to cater for all passengers. The cabin was spacious and comfortable and the crew including Dino the Cruise Director were fantastic! I would 100% recommend and if I'm ever over this side of the globe again, wouldn't hesitate to join another Sail Croatia cruise.

Best Vacation in a Long Time!

Not sure where to even start - we had smiles on our faces from the moment we were greeted by our cruise rep for the trip, Vedran. He made us feel welcome and we knew we were in a fabulous trip! The staff of 7 (not including Vedran and Captain Gordan) did everything they could to make our 7 days the best they could ever be. Everyday we went to a new island full of beauty unlike anything we've ever seen! Vedran gave us some much education, information and recommendations at each location which was extremely helpful! His passion for Croatia is infectious! Our room was cleaned every morning by sweet Ella (a thank less job but very appreciated). Our room was very comfortable - we opted for a room on the lower level and it was perfect! The chefs - Frane and Ana, created a lovely breakfast and delicious, large lunches every day and they were great! Our waiters/baretenders - Tomo and Pamela - were so professional and so fun to get to know. I miss everyone so much! Until next time.

⛵️

We had a fabulous time on our recent sailing adventure from Dubrovnik to Split with our Captain Khristian Khristian has great experience and great knowledge of traditions & lifestyles of Croatia which we truely enjoyed learning about. His sailing ability is incredible. ⚫️My only feedback is that the 2 front bedrooms should not be sold or advertised as double rooms ! These are single rooms and we were thought the yacht was for 4 couples fortunately for Sail Croatia one of our couple could not come away with us otherwise this would have been a huge problem. I suggest you change your advertising for this yacht to 2 double & 2 single rooms. Please don’t hesitate call me for further feed back in regards to this. +61 408197374

Fabulous yoga cruise

Many thanks to Dora and the Crew of Almissa. A hugely enjoyable cruise, great yoga sessions by Dora with stunning swim stops as we travelled the coast and islands of Croatia. A lot of fun too! Beautiful islands and ports to explore, with the help of Dora’s top tips we had a great holiday and would throughly recommend.

An amazing sailing experience!

Our Skipper Duje was wonderful. His excellent sailing experience and regular 'check-ins' to see how we were all doing made for a very relaxed and thoroughly enjoyable week of sailing in beautiful Croatia! I was very nervous about being 'out there on the high seas' but with Duje's confidence in his skills and putting our safety and well being as being the #1 focus each day, I soon felt calm. Our hostess Nola, was lovely and we really appreciated her talent to cook delicious meals! We would definitely recommend Sail Croatia and especially engaging Duje to Skipper a Charter. Warm regards Jenny and Terry

Fabulous Fun trip

This was our first sail Croatia cruise and it exceeded all my expectations. The itinerary was a perfect way to see Croatia and included some great excusions. Every stop was beautiful Our cruise rep Vicko was fantastic, his knowledge allowed us to plan a perfect week and see as much as we could in the time we had. We definitely will return again

Mia, the team leader, and all of the crew. Together with the captain the made the whole experience. The captain navigated to ensure we missed nothing on our itinerary. We are looking to book another cruise next year.

Libertine

My husband and I booked a 7 night cruise on the Libertine for our 20th wedding anniversary. Our skipper was Linda and she was amazing! The whole week was perfect, minus some weather scares. Each island was so stunning. Wineries, great food and super nice people. I could do this every year!!

Split to Dubrovnik

My family and I were just on Sundance with the fabulous skipper Jack Sparrow. From the moment we stepped on board Jack made us feel so welcome, he was very helpful, insightful and wonderful to deal with. We were warned about upcoming bad weather and he went out of his way to make sure we were safe and happy the whole time. The whole experience was just incredible and I would highly recommend both Jack and Sail Croatia to anyone who wants to see Croatia in its prettiest form. We went to lots of islands and bays throughout the week. Loved it so much!! Thanks Sail Croatia and Jack!!

Esperanza Dubrovnik return

Honestly every member of the staff was friendly and welcoming. Karolina was amazing and so warm.. we happened to board with a fantastic group of travellers all very kind and friendly. The boat is very comfortable and clean. The daily swims and perfect weather the cherry on the top.

Getaway

I could not have asked for a more relaxing and enjoyable experience. The crew were wonderful, especially the guest co-ordinator Karolina. The boat is beautiful, clean and well appointed. The ports we visited were beautiful and each offered a unique experience. The daily swim stops were stunning and really made each day wonderful. The food was delicious. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone needing a break or wanting to see and learn about beautiful Croatia. I hope to come back and do it again.

- Leslie, 10/09/2024 04:57, Travelled with Family

Great experience

Great way to see the islands and the cycling is challenging. Cabin is very comfortable. Crew were extremely helpful and friendly. Guides were very engaging. Definitely recommend this if you come to Croatia.

Wonderful week in the sun

The trip was a wonderful experience, made better by the great staff and the other guests. Made some good friends and discovered the beauty of the Croatian coast on a comfortable boat. Highlights included the swim stops, the local cuisine and the beautiful towns we stopped at

Most enjoyable cruise

Thoroughly enjoyed cruising the Croatian islands on our Dubrovnik to Split and return to Dubrovnik tour. Each port we stopped at represented a lesson in history. Thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour in Split and Dubrovnik with the local guides as well as the fabulous dinner with wine in Stari Grad at a local farm restaurant. Our morning swimming stops were a pleasure and the food served on the boat was divine. But there were negatives: 1. Our lower level cabins were adjacent to the engine room therefore when the boat left port early in the morning, no further sleep or talking could be had. These cabins were priced the same as the forward lower level cabins which seems unfair. 2. No itemised bar bills were provided so you had to assume that what you were billed for, you actually drank. 3. The boats internet was rubbish. 4. When rafted up at port with other boats, crossing over was difficult at times due to the height of each boat I.e. need individual ramps and not step up or down.

Dizare, Sales Rep at Sail Croatia replied 2024-09-19:

Dear Rosalie, Thank you for your detailed review and for sharing both the highlights and suggestions on both of your tours. We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed the historical walking tours, the fabulous dinner in Stari Grad, and the divine food onboard, as well as the beautiful morning swim stops in lovely secluded bays. We regret to hear that there were some aspects that had an impact on your overall cruise experience. Regarding the noise from the engines, as our ships are small motor cruisers, the engines do make some unavoidable noise when in operation, similar to a running car. We understand this may affect travelers differently, but it is part of the small ship experience. We are pleased to advise that we received a total customer score rating of 4.4/5 for your week onboard. Regarding the bar bill, guests are welcome to request an itemised bill each day to track their consumption. The Wi-Fi can be temperamental as it is subject to download limits and can experience reduced coverage while out at sea. The ramps between boats are designed for ease of movement, but due to the unique designs of each vessel, some variations in height are expected - we appreciate your suggestion of individual ramps. We thank you again for all your feedback and hope you enjoyed the rest of your trip.

Exceeded all expectations

Our captain, Marko, was brilliant. He quickly understood where we have been on previous trips and our priorities for this trip. All the stops planned were fantastic whether beautiful tranquil fishing ports or “wild” moorings in turquoise bays. The snorkling was some of the best I have experienced in the Mediterranean and Marko even managed to include an intro scuba dive for my son which he loved. Marko booked all the restaurants and they were all first class. We sampled an amazing array of fish and seafood. Now we are contemplating the next time we can return to this beautiful country and will try to get the same captain if we do as he was integral to our wonderful experience.

Salve Di Mare

Our passionate Sail Croatia guide Ivan was always there for us with recommendations for activities and food and local history at our Port stops . Our ship Salve Di Mare and crew were also amazing with at least one swim stop per day. Each swim stop the crew moored us in amongst the most stunning scenery and pristine water.

Fantastic Week on Sail Croatia

Sail Croatia cruise was one of the best weeks I had traveling through Europe. Tour manager Dino was absolutely fantastic at his job, he was super informative and looked out for everyone on the boat no matter what. The crew were very attentive and always made sure we were well fed and looked after. I couldn't recommend this type of holiday travel more!

24th Aug 2024- Fab trip

The itinerary, staff, accommodation and food were all great. The staff were very helpful and accommodating my gluten free diet. Visiting 4 islands was great. The option to have ebikes was good - especially in the heat. The organising of the sailing, where we stopped and the routes we covered on the bikes - were all very well planned out and explained to us every day in detail. The staff were very friendly. Had a fab holiday. Would definitely recommend. Thank you Sail Croatia

- HEATHER, 02/09/2024 10:38, Travelled with Family

Dream come true

From a click on google to a fabulous experience. Combining cycling with a cruise gives you the best of both. Explore the islands on bicycles allows you to see so much more of what a Croatia has to offer. The vessel, guides, crew and food were all excellent

Sail Croatia EOS 2024

Our EOS boat was so great because of the crew we had! They were all so super friendly and helped us with anything we needed! Sasa was our main best friend who we got along with so well, he helped us out when needed, toured us through the towns and recommended good places to eat/ party. Lucy made the best drinks ever and was great to have a conversation with. We always felt safe with the crew and were very well looked after. By far one of the best times I’ve had on my trip! You’re the best Sasa and crew and we will miss you all 😭

Catamaran with family

This was our first time on a sailing holiday and it certainly won't be our last. Everything was perfect including the comfort and cleanliness of the boat, the organisation from Sail Croatia but most importantly our most amazing skipper whose knowledge meant that we always felt safe and looked after.. We moored in beautiful bays and swam in the turquoise sea, we visited various islands and fell completely in love with Croatia. A perfect holiday for a family of 5 with 3 grown up children aged 21, 19 and 15. Just amazing!!
