Sail was an amazing experience. I want to thank Klara and the crew (Ivan and Fillip) for making it a very memorable week. Beyond the amazing crew’s efforts, I want to raise one very important consideration that Sail Croatia should acknowledge moving forward. In light of the premium price paid by each passenger, we all expected for more to be included as part of our wrist bands we wore around everywhere. We did not get anything for free with the wrist bands which was extremely disappointing. I recall friends of my mine previously doing the same sail in 2019 and noting that Carpe Diem entry fee being included, Mljet national park, Revelin and others being FREE. As is, the Sail is not cheap and I was shocked to discover the above were not included. Until Sail Croatia remedies these factors, I will not be recommending the experience to others.

Hi John, thank you for taking the time to review your Navigator cruise with us this summer. We are so pleased to read you had an amazing experience on your cruise and I will be sure to pass your comments and kind words onto the team, thanks so much for this! I've looked into the points you have raised further and can confirm inclusions on the Navigator cruise are as per our website. The wrist bands inclusions are the same as 2019 including entry to Revelin before midnight (if no DJ is playing or special event is taking place), a welcome shot in Dos Locos and free entry to Club Deep before 11pm. The entry fee for Mljet National Park is at an additional cost, this is noted on the website to enable guests to budget correctly before their sail. Thanks again for an amazing week on board John and we look forward to having you join us again in the future!
We were super lucky with the other guests we got on our boat as they are what made our trip the 3 stars instead of a 1. The staff on our boat were so unorganized, uninterested and if I’m being honest just not up to the standard of a premier ship. It didn’t even feel like we had staff on board. Our excretions were either late or not booked and our food was always late and again not up to standard of what I was told I would be getting for premier. We had zero boat parties or group activities organized compared to another sail Croatia boat next to us. Brody who was leading the boat next to us was amazing he tried include us in as many activities as he could but he had his own boat to run. I give full credit to him for trying to include us. I also don’t appreciate people on the boat being messaged by the lead of our boat asking to give her a good review. If you want a good review them be a good boat host!! Definite room for improvement on this premier boat

Hi Brooke, Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the company of your fellow travellers. I'm sorry to hear you didn't find the staff onboard to be helpful. I have checked the feedback for your Onboard Representative, and the average rating was 4 stars. All our ships get to enjoy socialising onboard and also the opportunity to enjoy the nightlife in each destination. Thank you for your comments on Brody, we are pleased to hear he was helpful and simply amazing. We will be sure to pass on your kind comments to him. Reviews are based on your personal experience, and we would like these to be as honest as possible, true to your experience so we thank you for sharing this with us. We have taken your comments onboard for future improvements. Thank you.
The destinations were really good but the food was not good and the AC in the room was not working as expected, the room was never cold enough.

Thank you for your review. We appreciate your comments and hope that you enjoyed Croatia as a whole. Our chefs aim to provide meals to cater for a variety of tastes and are able to offer more of the foods you can eat daily. In regards to the AC, where there is a need for improvement, our representative is always on hand to ensure that standards are met but they are only able to do so if they are made aware. Thank you again!
The trip was amazing. The only suggestions I would make would be to have more chances to do optional activities. Most of the activities we signed up for ended up not going ahead due to not enough people signing up . The Tarin crew and Zach were amazing and really made the trip that much better.

Thank you so much for your review! As excursions operate on minimum numbers, if there is not enough interest for a particular excursion, this will not go ahead which is very unfortunate for those wanting to join. There are a number of excursions available during your week which your Onboard Rep can assist with. Thanks so much, we will pass your comments on to the Tarin crew and Zach!
It would be good to have a profile of each boat online so we can actually see what we are paying for and what boat your going to stay in. I felt there was too many swim stops of doing nothing and not enough excursions. The alcohol on board was very little , the drinks were mostly juice very small measurements. A shower room would be essential, we were showering with a shower head in a toilet. The crew were amazing though and made it a great trip

Thank you for your honest review. We're glad the crew were amazing and were a welcomed inclusion on your trip! I see that you booked a cabin on our Standard ship (cost effective, small rooms, no ensuite) - we have descriptions available for each of our Navigator ship categories available on our website, so that you know what you're in for. We are always happy to provide additional information and answer any questions if need be :-). We try to get a good balance of on-shore vs off-shore experiences, so we do appreciate your comments here.
Be specific about what extras are offered for your sail. We wanted to do zip lining and i had previously emailed sail croatia to ensure we would have a chance to do it. Get on our boat and ask first day to be told not in our itinerary which was disappointing. We asked again if we would have time and were told no. We rearranged our trip back from dubrovnik to zagreb and when we stopped in omis and did the zip lining we would have definately been able to complete this in time before the boat departed omis. Other than that. Trip was great.

Thanks for your feedback and we hope you enjoyed your Navigator cruise with us. Zip Lining is an available excursion in Omis and we are really sorry to hear you were unable to partake in this excursion. We see that you also enquired about this prior to your cruise and we confirmed this was an option. We are currently investigating further into why you were unable to do this at the time - thank you for your feedback on this. It's great to hear you had a great trip otherwise and we thank you for providing feedback.
