My partner and I had a great week on Sail Croatia thanks to Lauren, Mateo and the other crew members. The weather was average but Lauren went above and beyond to maintain morale and organise alternative activities. The crew were very easy-going and friendly and we enjoyed learning about Croatia from them. Our only suggestion is to Sail Croatia directly - we think the itinerary could be improved. The Sail Croatia website states the white water rafting is available on the Split to Dubrovnik tour (which was not the case). We also would have appreciated more time exploring the towns as opposed to spending hours at swim spots.

The people - other travellers and the crew - are the highlight of this trip. Recommend for those who want to experience Croatia with new friends 😎

Marin was the best tour guide, he was so knowledgeable and very honest with his opinions. He would go out of his way to help you with anything you needed and made things run as smooth as possible. A great way to see the sights of Croatia!

- Hanna, 10/08/2024 11:38, Travelled in a Couple

Great way to see the islands and party through Croatia. Katarina our guide was so lovely, helpful and knowledgeable. Food was nothing special but our guide and the experiences they provided made up for it,

Lola our host & the crew were awesome and made us feel very welcome. Lola was very informative and helpful in a range of situations. The rooms were clean and tidy and the daily breakfast and lunch meals were delicious and kept us filled up for big days. The swim stops were beautiful. We had a great time on board the Mali Ante!

The crew on board couldn’t have been any better they were honestly the nicest hardest workers you will meet always smiling and helping out in any way they could. The food was 5/5 amazing as well at the itinerary of the week with stops and swim spots. Only feedback would be the variety of drinks at the bar were not as advertised on the website and didn’t have the variety to suit some people we were with.

- Brayden , 12/07/2024 06:35, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia was good. To make it better I would suggest more effort is put into the socialising of everyone on board e.g group drinking games, getting to know people etc. guided by the host. Also more time at each destination would be good! Not sooo long at swimming spots. Our host Clara did a good job for her first ever Sail!

- Annebelle , 03/07/2024 10:10, Travelled in a Couple

I was with Katarina on Zaramaris, Kat was incredible and made the whole trip incredible. Overall had a great time but some of the meals could have been better and felt some facilities were lacking, but this may have been due to being end of season.

- Melanie, 22/09/2023 19:28, Travelled in a Couple

Overall had such a fun week with an amazing bunch of people! Ioana our sail leader was incredible and went above and beyond for everyone, she made the trip unforgettable. Loved the boat and swim stops. Due to weather conditions we had a few schedule changes which should have been made up for! But overall was a bucket list trip I’ll never forget!

- Josie , 01/08/2023 08:59, Travelled in a Couple

Great if you want to party all week. Not ideal for a good night sleep. Toma our leader was great. Knew alot about the areas and organised everything well .

- Josh, 19/06/2023 15:24, Travelled in a Couple

We had an amazing trip ! The boat was super clean. The crew ensured that the boat was always spotless. The crew was also very friendly and welcoming. Our guide mila was amazing. She was knowledgeable and went out of her way to give us tours of every place we stopped at. She was kind, funny, and made our trip the best it could be. She was organized without making us feel like we were at school. She brought the group closer. The food on the boat was cooked very well. Everyone enjoyed the food so much. I wrote on my application that I was vegan however on arrival it was not known. It would be better if there was better vegan options for me instead of the regular menu without meat. Some days all I could eat was cucumber and tomato. Also the chef used a lot of oil on my food. The food was cooked well but a load of oil was added all over it at the end. I am not used to this and it was hard to eat. Overall a great trip thanks to mila and the mali ante crew :)

- Laura , 29/08/2022 09:21, Travelled in a Couple

From the moment we stepped on the Salve Di Mare it's fair to say we were very excited on what was to come. The boat was beautiful, clean and the rooms were air-conditioned and classy. Staff were incredibly friendly, led by our guide Julie who was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire trip (not to mention great fun)! Food was incredible on the boat, a highlight being dessert for lunch! We had such a good crew with us and everyone was there to soak up the beautiful sun, swim in the crystal clear waters and have a good time. Small feedback would be that the pricier upper deck rooms were smaller than the cheaper rooms below. Needed a bit more time on the islands especially when we didn't go out to party the night before. However, from the moment we took off, we knew we had made the right choice sailing with Sail Croatia. If you have any hesitation, just book with the Salve Di Mare you will not regret it.

- Stefan, 22/07/2022 10:06, Travelled in a Couple

Organized itinerary, helpful host, easy going vacation that we didn’t have to worry about any planning!

- Rob, 15/09/2019 11:07, Travelled in a Couple

We had an amazing week on our boat. The crew and our guide 'Duje' ensured we all had a fantastic experience. Our lower level standard room (room 14) seemed to be the smallest on the boat which was the only negative of our trip. Luckily we had an amazing crew and fellow guests which made up for it!!

- Anonymous, 28/08/2019 07:55, Travelled in a Couple

The boat crew and tour lead made this an enjoyable week long party. It would have been nicer to maybe have more time in each spot, however that is a benefit of hindsight. Rooms are as you expect however the en-suites leave room for improvement. The common bathroom and shower areas are sufficient. Croatia really turned on the sun for us with great weather the whole trip.

- Anonymous, 19/08/2019 08:18, Travelled in a Couple

The crew was not the friendliest or nicest to majority of passengers on the boat. The amount of tips they expect at the end is ridiculous. If they want tips they should provide better service. They need a better variety of food. You aren’t allowed to bring snacks on and they don’t have any on board. The actual sail was the best week of my life. You go to some amazing places and meet some of the best people. I would do it again but i know what to expect next time.

- Anonymous, 12/08/2019 16:26, Travelled with Family

Had a great time, staff where amazing!

- Dyllan, 09/08/2019 07:56, Travelled in a Couple

Was an awesome week with a great group of people and staff. Our sail rep Bri was amazing. She was very helpful and organised in keeping our week flow nicely. We were always given a brief before each location and knew exactly what the plan was for each stop. It was also good to hear a little history of each stop as well in her briefs. Bri and the crew on Milena were amazing. Thanks again for a great week.

- Stefan , 03/08/2019 04:15, Travelled in a Couple

This was my second sail. I loved the first one so I came back with my partner. Tea was amazing she made our experience even better. She was present, friendly and approachable. The boat was great as well as the captain. I do however have a recommendation about the bar. On my last sail we each had wristbands where each drink purchased was recorded on a computer system. This time it was controlled by the bar staff on a sheet where I and many of the other guests had been over charged. Even to the point where we took photos for proof and magically the numbers increased over night. I believe the bar tab should be in the hands of the customer and not the staff. This ended badly and effected the overall experience. I felt that it was cheaper and much better to buy drinks on the islands and not on the boat. Ivona was so lovely, Adriana could have been a bit more approachable and friendly. I am speaking as a guest who does not drink much (1-2 drinks a day on board). Thank you for a great time

- Ashleigh , 29/07/2019 07:38, Travelled in a Couple

We had the best time on sail Croatia, the perfect mix of seeing Croatia and partying. The tour had lots of great opportunities to make the most of your week. Thanks to our awesome crew for making it an unforgettable week!

- Mardi, 12/07/2019 08:40, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia week was one of the best weeks of our Europe trip. Although prepare your livers - there is a lot of drinking and partying in a different location each night. Great secret swim spots each day to wash away the hangover. Our Sail Croatia host Ivana on the Navigator ship was super helpful and informative! And shout out to our bartender Alena for her positive attitude and always making sure we were having a great time! Would not have been the same without these ladies!

- Gabi, 02/07/2019 16:34, Travelled in a Couple

Ana our guide was fantastic. She was absolutely lovely and so knowledgeable. She was always there for any of the passengers aboard when we needed her. I cannot say one bad thing about Ana. We all loved her. However the boat bartender was very moody and rude at times. Sometimes it felt like we were being treated like children. The crew did not interact much with the passengers and seemed like they didnt want to be there. We were given 1 towel to use for the whole week and it rained most of the week. It's pretty hard to dry a towel when it's raining and damp, we didnt appreciate this. Overall I still really enjoyed meeting all the lovely passengers and made some news friends that I will hopefully see again. The boat itself had broken stereo speakers and we werent allowed to play music at alot of the stops. Come on it's a party boat, music is a must people! Sail Croatia might want to consider hiring a new boat.

- Kyle, 06/06/2019 09:29, Travelled in a Couple

We met a few really great people who will be friends for life. The crew on board the boat were amazing.

- Jess, 27/09/2018 13:47, Travelled in a Couple

Boat was nice and clean. Great group of travelers. Overall a great experience!

- Katherine, 03/09/2018 00:39, Travelled with Family

I travelled with my partner (both from NZ), I’m 23 and he is 26. We went on a navigator cruise from Dubrovnik to Split. I highly recommend this cruise if you are young, love to meet meet new people and love to party. We had met an awesome bunch of people and also had a cool boat crew. We had the most epic week, made lots of memories and met some amazing new friends while exploring 7 places in beautiful Croatia. Cheers Sail Croatia!!

- Annabel, 06/08/2018 09:14, Travelled in a Couple

The friends that were made

- Giulietta, 03/08/2018 14:52, Travelled in a Couple

Tour Guide, People on board, the locations we stopped at. A/Cs in rooms probably need upgrading. Apart from that I would definitely recommend to anybody wishing to travel through Croatia.

- Michael , 30/07/2018 12:44, Travelled in a Couple

We had a great time on our cruise! Our group was really good and everyone got along great, the food was amazing!!!! We also loved the staff! Croatia was beautiful!

- Renee, 10/10/2017 11:37, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia was amazing. The islands we visited were stunning and the daily ocean swim stops were so much fun. The staff were friendly and we made good friends with them and we felt looked after. We bonded so much with our group and every night going out together was heaps of laughs and good times. Unfortunately there was bed bugs on our ship and we gave one of the other couples our mattress after the crew didn't sort out the problem and they and many others had no where to sleep. That was the only negative.

- Ellie, 18/09/2017 07:28, Travelled in a Couple

Sail Croatia was amazing, so well run and organised. Food was excellent and staff had the best vibes. Croatia is an amazing place, with every stop being so different! Had the worst hangover ever, but was totally worth it. Thanks so much, so many excellent memories!

- Erin, 19/08/2017 17:38, Travelled in a Couple

Had high expectations going on a navigator cruise as people told me it was the "best week" ever! Sail croatia did not disappoint, indeed it was the most amazing week ever, with the most outgoing/fun/craziest group of people, lets do it again, wouldnt change a thing, besides some airconditioning #mlini😉

- Alba, 15/08/2017 09:34, Travelled with Family

My partner, Zach and I had an amazing time on our Sail Croatia. The country was absolutely stunning, with Hvar being one of the most beautiful places we have visited to date. We were extremely fortunate enough to have had a great group of nearly 40 people, all getting along and sharing travelling stories as well as different drinking games for fun. Both Zach and I have made several friends we intend to keep in touch with once back in Australia, including our guide Alex who was extremely friendly, genuine and such a caring person. We are very excited that she is moving to our home state in Australia and intent to keep in touch with her. She certainly made our experience on Croatia Sail one to remember forever. Thank you team Sail Croatia and especially you Alex. Zach and Tiaan.

- Tiaan, 07/08/2017 14:15, Travelled in a Couple

The cabin crew and our host Lara were incredible! They were so friendly and made our time so entertaining. Im so sad to leave them they were like our family by the end of the week. Our whole boat was full of like-minded people and we all made sure everyone had a blast. Top job.

- Amy, 06/07/2017 17:27, Travelled with Family

Had a great time. But firstly our standard ship wasn't 'sea worthy' so we were put on a premium boat which was very nice but there were more rules and we had to keep the music down a lot. Sometimes it felt like school camp as everyone was given a lecture almost everyday for things that other people had done which isn't appreciated and ruined the mood. The fact that Sail Croatia doesn't check their boats until they have left the port is worrying. I don't recommend the Buggies unless you have goggles because the dust in your eyes ruins it. Highly recommend either canyoning or zip lining. But thankfully I met some awesome people and the islands were beautiful.

- Robyn, 03/07/2017 07:18, Travelled in a Couple

We had a great week on board the Maestral for our Navigator cruise. The boat was clean and out cabin was a private double bed as we had requested. We were very well fed on the ship for breakfast and lunch, and the crew was very accomodating and friendly. The excursion options were nice, but a little pricey. The suggested dinner locations were also a bit pricey, and some of them were less than great quality food. Overall though it was a very fun time, and we were able to coordinate our own excursions and do our own things for dinners anyways. We enjoyed the nightclubs we were taken to very much as well. Our Sail Croatia representative was wonderful and a really fun guy. I would recommend this cruise to others :)

- Chantal, 13/06/2017 12:27, Travelled in a Couple

The cruise was magnificent in terms of the views - majestic mountains in the background with crystal clear, bright blue sea water. The crew was very friendly and helpful. A little more attention to detail could be given to itenarary arrangements - excursions, places, times, etc. Overall awesome experience.

- Yolandi Coomans, 12/06/2017 12:34, Travelled in a Couple

Even though we went on the last cruise of the season and the weather was far from warm, we still had such a good week with stanko. Sail Croatia made everything so easy and such a good environment to make great friends :)

- Mia , 17/10/2016 07:59, Travelled in a Couple

Met amazing people, great excursions, Ivanna (our rep) was lovely. The only thing I will say negative - I wish the music and bar could stay on longer other boats had their music on much later but our Captain just seemed so grumpy.

- Angela, 16/09/2016 08:59, Travelled in a Couple

Staff were excellent- information helpful- locations were amazing- cleanliness was great too

- KATRIONA, 08/09/2016 21:30, Travelled in a Couple

Cruise was awesome it\'s a great week to make new friends, party and get some great shots of the coast! We had a great bunch of people on board with us which makes it easier. Lauren was our host she did a good job she was super busy working on 5 boats but always had time for us all! Yoshi did well pouring us all drinks each night only wish happy hours were longer haha Of course there\'s a few things that could do with a tweak. For a party boat you stay on the boring islands longer than you do the party islands, and you get told to be back on board by 5 and the boat doesn\'t depart till 8. Food was better on some days then others I feel sorry for any vegetarians out there! We also missed out on our last swim stop which was annoying and they all could have been a little longer! Overall an awesome week it\'s a must do!

- Leah, 31/08/2016 18:10, Travelled in a Couple

The experience that I had on our boat over the duration of the Split-Dubrovnik route was on the best weeks of my life. The combination of a great group that gelled well and got along on all levels as well as a responsive and organised cabin crew made for an amazing week. The ability for us as customers to interact so closely with the crew was unbelievable. The only feedback I could give would be for more organised Sail Croatia reps. A lot of the time we were given inconsistent and contradictory information about excursions, arrivals, night events and it was very hard to get a hold of someone each day to talk to. The morning address and arrival information feels very rushed, maybe assign a rep to each boat? More onboard medical facilities would be amazing, especially medicine to treat bee stings for those allergic!!

- Hayden, 29/08/2016 16:57, Travelled in a Couple

Overall the cruise was great. We loved the swim stops and how every day we were somewhere new on the way to our destination. Breakfast was simple - lunch much better and enjoyed this very much Drinks- good variety, pricing average but overall a reasonable week of drinking. Rooms- I had requested a double bed as we were a couple- no contact was made to let me know this boat intact had no above deck double bed rooms - I would have been happier to be below deck with air con and a double bed - disappointed in this lack of communication Activities schedule - frequent changes and flat out denial and non disclosure about availability of activities eg - buggies - overbooked for that day apparently so out your guide didn't even offer he activity - it was until we asked what happened to that activity that we were given a long winded answer about how many boats sailing at the moment. The sail Croatia recommendations were let downs night clubs, restaurants as they were in business withSC

- Monique, 15/08/2016 06:29, Travelled in a Couple

The staff and the other guests on the cruise were awesome and they made the whole trip very special. Only criticisms I had were very minor. (Wasn't allowed cheese and bacon in my omelette, only one or the other. Ice in drinks was hard to come, 1 litre of water wasn't enough and wifi was a bit dodgey) Very minor but if I'm paying top dollar for the premier plus boat I would think small things like should be available. On a side note things like stand up paddles boards on the boat for use during swim stops would be the coolest thing ever! Just a suggestion. Overall I still had an amazing time and would definitely come back if I had the chance. Thank you for a lovely week.

- Tristan, 15/07/2016 09:27, Travelled with Family

The staff was so wonderful and helpful! The food was good too! We also lucked out with wonderful people On our boat and great weather for the week! Thanks Sail Croatia!

- Michelle, 04/07/2016 05:04, Travelled in a Couple

The cruise was such an amazing experience. We sawill beautifull landscapes, old forts and crazy hectic nightclubs all in the space of a very intense but also relaxing week. The highlights were defiantly waking up with the boat moving and stopping near a beautiful island to go swimming, the awesome lunches and the awesome nightlife. The extra activities though are very overpriced but chilling on the boat is just as good. The sail croatia representative was a bit disorganised and kept changing deadlines and then getting grumpy. Defiantly worth it though, great week.

- Christopher, 27/06/2016 09:06, Travelled in a Couple

The best thing about this cruise aside from the gorgeous landscapes was definitely our host Ivana. The crew were also excellent and helpful whenever we had additional questions or needs. Food and drinks were both good and the drinks onboard were reasonably priced. The cabin was as expected small but sufficient however being 6"9 meant the bed was a bit uncomfortable as it had a foot-board. If you are tall hope for a bed without a foot-board so your feet can at least hang over. Being able to visit several beautiful ports and swim in the clean, clear waters throughout the week was definitely the best way to see the country and the shore excursions were a great option to explore each port in more depth. Probably the one negative was the horrific smell of sewerage on the last night of our cruise coming up through our ensuite but other than that this cruise was the best part of our 3 week holiday.
