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

The tour director, Ivana went over and above- very responsive to people. So kind and knowledgeable! The meals were amazing- better than most restaurants. I liked having the down time in the morning to relax and a good overview of what was available in town made town visits enjoyable. The captains dinner with dancing and singing after was a kick. Thank you for everything!

We avoided the extreme heat and crowds that summer in Croatia usually brings. We were still able to swim in the mornings and enjoy walking around the smaller towns. The food on the Esperanza was quite good. Our tour director Ivana did a good job keeping us informed and on schedule.

- Patricia, 17/10/2024 05:35, Travelled with Friend/s

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 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

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

Everything about our cruise on The Olimp was fantastic. The cabins were very comfortable, great showers and quite roomy. The food was amazing - every meal absolutely delicious. The boat was beautiful we had lots of space to relax and the captain chose excellent swim spots. The stops at the various towns were great and V we had time to wander and see the sights.. I have wanted to do this cruise for a long time and I was not disappointed - it was absolutely 5 star ⭐️

- Meredith, 27/09/2024 19:22, Travelled with Friend/s

Our September cruise on the Queen Jelena was wonderful. The ship is as depicted and very clean. Highlights include: - stops to swim in the Adriatic Sea - delicious meals - Mia, our tour manager, was very helpful, knowledgeable and available - charming ports and excursions in Dubrovnik (old town), Split ( the palace), Mljet ( biking through National Park)

- Chris, 27/09/2024 14:03, Travelled with Friend/s

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

Our friends from the neighborhood sailed with us - but the other passengers were lovely addition to the vacation. Mia was the best! So knowledgeable and pleasant.

- Rhonda, 26/09/2024 14:40, Travelled with Friend/s

It was a great experience. Vedren was wonderful. Not only knowledgeable but was so fun to be with. We had a wonderful time and will let all know what a wonderful time we had. The staff and captain were also great. Thank you for a wonderful 50th Anniversary.

- Debbie, 25/09/2024 14:37, Travelled with Friend/s

From the moment we got on board and met all the guests and staff we felt at home and very special. Our beautiful cabin manager Ioanna or Jo as we called her and all the staff were fantastic! Boris and Stella behind the bar and serving our meals each day, cooked by our wonderful chefs was fantastic. Swim stops and our friendly sailors who set everything up we’re also fantastic. Captains dinner was so much fun as was the village dinner and we loved our below deck cabin too. Thanks to our captain and crew for a wonderful trip on the stunning Olimp and to our new friends we have made around the world .

- Michelle , 23/09/2024 11:10, Travelled with Friend/s

Above expectations! The itinerary was great. Loved each port. Food was outstanding. The staff were wonderful. Kudos to the following: Mia-cruise manager-kept us informed, provided site suggestions and timely updates. Responsive to all needs. Capt Vlado-Made changes to itinerary to keep us sheltered from inclement weather. Ensured smooth sailing. Anna and Antonia-our dining/bar staff-super friendly and attentive. Cook staff-I was amazed by the food onboard. Special thanks for accommodating me as a vegetarian. My only negative comment is that the wifi was a struggle. Several of us were constantly trying to access it which meant not all guests had up to date info.

- Dianne, 21/09/2024 13:31, Travelled with Friend/s

Ms Olimp ship had everything we needed. Crew was attentive and amazing. They became our friends for 7 days! Chef made incredible meals, Ionna made every accommodation work for the excursions we wanted. I would highly recommend this cruise.

We spent a week on the Olimp in September 2024 and can honestly say it was one of the best holidays we have ever had. From the luxury of the boat to the wonderful crew we were thoroughly spoilt. We met some great friends and saw just how beautiful the Croatian coastline is. Our daily swim stops and evenings spent in a different island made it a magical week. Special thanks go to our Captain Jure and our Tour Manager Ioana for their exceptional service.

- Lesley, 12/09/2024 09:25, Travelled with Friend/s

Vedran Ovčar was fantastic. Our crew and itinerary. The ship and our weather were lovely. Can't say enough. We all had such a memorable, great time!

The Sail Croatia staff provided excellent, caring and friendly service. The trip was very relaxing as we enjoyed the swim stops. The meals were very tasty; however, an alternate selection would have been appreciated for those not enjoying what was provided. The rooms were very comfortable, but the air conditioning was not very cool. We were very appreciative to have a fan. Our tour guide, V, was excellent and very entertaining. All in all, it was a very memorable time. 😁

- Joanna, 03/09/2024 12:04, Travelled with Friend/s

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.

- Bob , 03/09/2024 09:25, Travelled with Friend/s

V the cruise director was great! He was knowledgeable and had a great personality. He made sure we had everything we needed. All the crew was freindly and attentive. They made the trip even better with their attention to detail. Loved the swim stops and beautiful islands.

Great way to see the islands.

- Ray, 03/09/2024 06:13, Travelled with Friend/s

We absolutely loved our time on the Queen Jelena, which lives up to its ‘elegance cruise’ name. Some stunning spots selected for a daily swim stop before a lovely lunch as we sailed into our port for the day. The boat is immaculate and clearly well taken care of. All the staff were great, with our tour manager Vedran making this an exceptional experience with his briefings and recommendations and engagement with all the passengers. Would highly recommend this for anyone who wants to see more of Croatia and achieve that perfect balance of chill and exploration.

- Melanie, 01/09/2024 20:56, Travelled with Friend/s

What a fantastic way to see the islands. The food was fabulous. The Crew made you feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble. We have seen some of the islands previously on large cruise ships but having experienced cruising this way this is now our preference. Our room was a good size and air conditioned, a powerful shower small things I know but all make a difference. And things the travel agent may not know. We made new friends and have booked for next year with them 😀

We have just disembarked from Queen Jelena. The week was absolutely glorious. From Tomo and Pamela in the bar to Joseph and Matteo our sailors to Ella looking after our cabins and our fabulous captain Gordon we couldn’t have asked her a bit of week. But most of all our Leeder Ioana she was amazing. Constantly working to make our lives better and keep us updated. She went over and above every day so thank you Ioana. Danced the night away on our captains dinner it was a sensational week.

Everything about this trip was wonderful from start to finish, The staff, the crew, the itinerary, the food, the opportunity to partake in amazing excursions, swim in the Adriatic every day, or simply relax in the luxurious salons or out on deck. My husband and I enjoyed every minute. We travelled with a large group of friends and there was truly something for everyone. Highly recommend this trip!

We just returned from a 7-night charter of the Queen Jelena. Our group included nine families, including those in age from teens to their 60s. It's a group that has traveled together extensively, but this trip was truly extraordinary. The boat was perfect, the cabins spacious and cool, with great outdoor spaces. The itinerary (Elegance route from Split to Dubrovnik) was wonderful, with each island offering something new. The swim stops, as others have said, are truly magical. Above all else, it was our tour manager, Karolina, that made the week so special, handling our large, boisterous group with aplomb. Our group included a number of hotel and restaurant owners, and I don't think any of us have experienced a more capable and caring hospitality professional. She, Captain Gordan, and the entire crew created a wonderful experience our group of friends will never forget. If you're considering a charter of or cruise on the Queen Jelena, don't hesitate - it's extraordinary.

I highly recommend this experience! The staff was professional and courteous. The ship was clean and comfortable. The Captain was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about wanting our whole group to have an amazing adventure! We were in good hands! Ioana ( activities concierge)made sure to brief us daily on the activities available in each stop along the Dalmatian coast. She was available to help with booking activities, guiding us to certain places and answering all of our questions. (All 38 of us!) This is truly one of my favorite all time vacations! I can’t say enough about the crew, the people, the places and the layout of the trip. If you have the opportunity to travel with the Olimp crew you absolutely should plan it now!!

- Cassie , 30/07/2024 16:01, Travelled with Friend/s

The crew was wonderful. The daily swim stops really added to the experience. Food overall was great, but I would have liked to seen a few more hot breakfast choices. Maybe an optional laundry service would make it even better….(I underpacked) Overall it was an amazing trip and one that I will never forget!

- Greg, 30/07/2024 08:35, Travelled with Friend/s

We were fortunate to share our experience with a wonderful group of travellers.. The crew were excellent and our tour manager was very focussed on delivering an experience we would not forget. We have great memories, new f t iendships and a love of Croatia.

Our family’s experience was phenomenal, from our welcome gathering at the dock in Split when we boarded to our final farewells with the gracious staff I know the bridge in Dubrovnik.. The Helena was beautiful, beautifully kept, Each member of the staff was kind and generous with their willingness to help. . They were approachable, informative and consistently professional yet beyond kind. Our daily morning swim stops were a treat. Our many daily excursions were perfectly planned and matched with our group. The recommendations of restaurants and destinations each evening were far above our expectations. Carolina, in particular, made our week one we will never forget. We will offer our accolades to everyone who asks!

- Amy, 23/07/2024 10:08, Travelled with Friend/s

Our crew was amazing - friendly, thoughtful, and fun! This was our first small ship adventure and we felt like friends with our crew, who handled all our needs efficiently and gave us suggestions and history on the places we were visiting. We were able to connect with all the lovely passengers - only 18 besides us aboard. Swim stops were a blast in these scenic locations with the most gorgeous turquoise clear water I have ever seen. Absolutely the best. Highly recommend!

Everything was first class with this cruise! Cabins were surprisingly spacious, food was amazing, thought I was eating at a 5 star restaurant every night. They kept the yacht spotless. Our cabin was cleaned every day and she knew when to come without disrupting our cabin time. Our food/drink service was outstanding. Tomo went the extra mile to ensure we always had what we needed/requested. And with a smile! Ivana was so helpful and informative. She was easy to chat with and always on top of things. She made sure we had all the info needed to make this cruise a pleasant and fun experience. She also went the extra mile by taking us on a couple of unscheduled tours to ensure we could find our way around. Thank you Sail Croatia Crew
