A perfect sailing week thanks to Matea!

The boat was comfy, the route perfectly balanced between fun moments and chill ones, and the skipper Matea was the kindest and most professional person I’ve met! Thanks for all the great advice, great mood and great moments spent together! It was also a blast to have an all girls boat!

Zaramaris

The staff had so much knowledge and so well equipped, Francesca was so spot on with all the activity and club recommendations and an all round elite person. And for the cook, the meals were absolutely on point always had me wanting seconds. These guys were great and gave me wanting to do it all again and again.

SAIL CROATIA PENELOPA

The crew and Ola made this such an enjoyable trip. We got really lucky with our group on the sail, which alongside the crew and Ola created such a fun environment. My overall highlight was the time we spent on the boat before and after going out, as well as the swim spots. Everyone’s company and enthusiasm was always amazing. Will definitely be back and recommending Sail Croatia!

Outstanding experience

Our experience with Sail Croatia was simply spectacular. From the very beginning, everything was perfectly organized, the boat was spotless, and the route was breathtaking. The food onboard was delicious every single day, with fresh and varied options that exceeded our expectations. A special thank you to Lucija, our guide, who was incredibly attentive, kind, and detail-oriented at all times. She made sure we felt comfortable, well-informed, and enjoyed every stop and activity to the fullest. Her warmth and professionalism truly made a difference. Overall, a first-class experience: excellent service, stunning scenery, delicious food, and a crew that genuinely cares about their guests. I would absolutely recommend it 100%!

Trvdi boat

One of the best weeks I've had! The boat was awesome, the people on it and the whole crew were 10/10. Couldn't fault Antonio at all, gave really clear instructions, very welcoming and made it feel like you've known him for years after the first day. Couldn't recommend him enough of the rest of the crew for that matter!

Sail Croatia

The whole week spent on board was absolutely incredible and a big part of that was the crew especially olja Before even boarding the boat I was greeted with the most friendly smile I’ve ever seen and the energy to match so it was a great start I knew we were in for somthing special. Olja is the superstar of the team every morning you’d wake up to the most positive person on board and that was olja she would start everyone’s day off with positive vibes and a few laughs to share She made everyone on board feel heard and right at home if there was ever an issue olja would resolve it straight away so we all knew we were in good hands She had a lot of knowledge to share and great ideas on how everyone could spend there day. Because of olja I will absolutely be doing another sail Croatia I just hope she will be on the same boat as us So big thank you to olja for making this a week I will never forget she is one of a kind and such a hard worker.

Amazing Trip!!!

The main factor that made our trip was Captain Nikola and Firstmate Dora!!!! Their professionalism, hospitality, and knowledge of their country took this trip over the top! They exemplified what service and hospitality should be about!!!

Amazing Experience with Nikola and Dora

Our experience sailing with Nikola and Dora was totally incredible from start to finish. This is our second time doing a catamaran vacation and so far our favorite of the two. Dora was an exceptional host and chef. What stands out the most about her is that she is always repurposing leftovers into an entirely different meal. Nikola was extremely knowledgeable about the small islands of Croatia and the Adriatic Sea. We had an absolutely phenomenal experience with them and would recommend them to anyone.

The week was amazing, the crew were excellent and Antonio was very knowledgeable and helpful with places to visit and things to do at the stops

Catamaran houndog

We (8 people) chartered the catamaran hound dog for a week for my moms 80th birthday and our skipper Ante and host Josipa were exceptional . They went above and beyond . Ante took us to all different islands and we had the best time . Josipa was an incredible host and cooked us the most amazing breakfast and lunch every day . We could not be happier and would take this again in the future. The trip was very well organized and we had the best time . Only negative thing was the amount of bath towels that sail Croatia gave us . Other then that it was exceptional

Happy days

Great crew on board with Chef cooking great meals, captain and boat crew seemed very knowledgeable and professional, as well as bar operator being very lively and upbeat. Our sail Croatia rep was also great at always giving perfect recommendations and answering any questions that we had. She was very organised and did a great trip planning our days and taking the thinking out of it which was perfect 👍

LOVEDDDD

Despite being on the cheapest boat Sail Croatia offers, the experience was worth so much more. The crew was incredible and made the experience do much better. Big thanks to Olija our sail rep who was so knowledgeable, incredibly funny and so much fun to have around. Darren our chef was amazing and kept us well fed throughout. Charlie our bartender obviously was to thank for keeping us hydrated ;). Isobel for bringing the vibes with the music. Ivan for being the biggest hype man. And to the rest of the crew and captain for looking after us. Met some life long friends on Sail and will be going home with many good memories. The rooms were also better than expected, we didnt have aircon, but the below deck rooms where we stayed had one in the hallway and fans in the rooms so it wasnt ever unbearably hot. Party destinations were also good and swim stops were so fun. Thank you!!!!

A truly amazing holiday. A big thank you to our captain (Mislav) and hostess (Mirna) for a fantastic week on the Alley Cat.

- Eric, 13/08/2025 08:29, Travelled with Family

Great Cruise

The cruise was lovely, very relaxed. Buffet breakfast in morning, swim stops and relaxing, then 3 course lunch and afternoon is free with lots of suggestions and opportunities to enjoy each stop. Staff were all so friendly and kind. Our below deck rooms were high quality and spotlessly clean. Food was high quality. The staff made everything easy and fun. Island stops were fabulous loved them all. Salve de mere was a beautiful ship spotlessly clean. Thank you Sail Croatia

Can I stay on this yacht forever?

This week was a solid 10/10! The combination of being out on the open sea, stopping at picturesque swim spots, exploring the towns of the Croatian islands, fun nights out, and making heaps of new friends made this trip the holiday of a lifetime. It wouldn't have been the same without our AMAZING skipper Matea who was so helpful with local knowledge and went above and beyond to make our trip seamless and so much fun. Thank you for everything. 🩵

Sail Croatia was AMAXZING!

I took my 19 year old daughter on the Esperanza Explorer cruise and it exceeded my expectations by far. The ship was beautiful, the rooms spacious, the staff fantastic and knowledgeable and the itinerary was perfect. We met a huge variety of people and had a chance to connect and make new friends due to the intimate size of the cruise. Sailing to a new swim spot each morning was the BEST way to start the day, Follow that with a superb lunch and just the right amount of education on the next ports history and things to do and then we were off to explore, wine taste, kayak, hike, shop or just hang at the beach. I think this is the best way to see some of the amazing smaller islands of Croatia with the comfort of not packing and unpacking. Highly recommend Sail Croatia.

Vjeko is the man

The experience was fantastic, loved every minute of it. Our tour guide Vjeko made the experience even more enjoyable. Thanks

- Zac, 13/08/2025 06:28, Travelled with Friend/s

Loved every minute

We had the best week sailing and cycling the Croatian Islands. The guides and crew were all extremely friendly, professional and nothing was too much trouble. Special thanks to the chef as the food was delicious. We were blessed with a brilliant group of like minded travellers to enjoy the cycling and down time with.The Islands are stunning.

Kingfisher crusie

We loved everything, the boat was luxurious the crew were wonderful, Fani cooked amazing breakfasts and lunches and catered to all our needs. Kristian was great fun and kept us informed of where we were going he planned a lot of trips that were excellent

- Eliza, 13/08/2025 04:58, Travelled with Family

Great time

Sail Croatia was so much fun. I was there solo and there weren’t many other solo travellers but it was so easy to make friends cause everyone was so welcoming and awesome! The crew were PHENOMENAL, great meals attentive waiter (that even rang the bell for us multiple times!). The only thing to be mindful of is there were lots of little cash payments for bus transfers that were optional but also the only real way to get into some cities so it added up. Honestly I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone it was fantastic!

- Sarah, 13/08/2025 04:35, Travelled Solo

Best Crew ever!!!

Forgive my spelling of names but Jospina and Skipper Ante where the best. Every meal was perfect and they were attentive to all our needs, especially some of our party that were less sure footed getting on and off board. Bottom line only complaint was who sends a charter out with only 1 towel per guest for a week( this was not the crews fault) . Had a great time overall and our Crew were very knowledgeable of all the ports which made getting to and from any adventures/tours we went on super easy and added to our fun!!!!

Unbelievable fun

Sail Croatia would definitely be the best week of my life. Made some unbelievable friends who I will have for a lifetime and couldn’t speak more highly of all the staff on the boat especially the team leader Antonio and bartender Mirko that couldn’t of done a better job looking after us Aussie and Kiwi idiots

I had the most amazing time on Sail Croatia. Antonio and the crew were excellent, they looked after us so well and were extremely knowledgeable. Such a great way to explore Croatia, I couldn’t recommend the experience more. Thanks so much Antonio and crew!

Best Trip Ever

The entire cruise was just beautiful. From the greeting, the food, the cleanliness and especially the service! Top notch in all areas. A must do if you want to visit the islands of Croatia. The cruise director was great in giving a run down of the next port and excursions. We just signed up and showed up! The company provided the transportation to the excursions if necessary! Truly an awesome experience!

Fantastic trip, made more amazing by our crew!

We just completed a week long private yacht tour with Sail Croatia and the trip exceeded our expectations, largely because of the incredible crew. We knew we wanted a skipper, and decided to splurge and also get a hostess which is not something we normally splurge on, but we're so so so glad we did! Our skipper (Ante) was so enthusiastic and fun to be around. He gave us so many incredible recommendations for restaurants, bars, and activities and really built the route around what we felt like doing and he was so flexible. Our hostess (Jelena) was amazing! She made incredible food, including a number of Croatian dishes there just delicious. Both of our crew were a lot of fun to be around and wonderful to chat with. They shared so much with us about their country and we just adored them. I cannot rave about them enough, and I am running out of characters to type with! There is no way we would have has as great of a time without them as a resource and ship crew.

A wholesome and fun filled week

A huge huge shout out to our tour manager Antonio, he came out with us and we got to know him really well. He gave us amazing suggestions for day to day activities and really enhanced our experience on the trip. We sailed on the Mala Kate and it was clear that the crew were like family to each other. They made us feel like part of the family too- always warm, helpful and generous with our group. A big shout out to our waiter Bruno who’ served the best drinks and built rapport with every person on the boat.

Colombo

The staff were all exceptional, myself and my group of friends (all girls) felt incredibly comfortable and safe on board. Mario was a great host and spent a lot of time getting to know us and making us feel at home. Nothing was too much to ask and no question was left unanswered. The boat was clean and well equipped. Instructions and information was all super clear and easy to understand. Couldnt have asked for a better team or experience! Thanks!

Trip Of a Lifetime

My wife and I planned this trip so my wife could visit the homeland of her grandmother. This was the best way to experience Croatia and the Dalmatian Islands. The crew was excellent. Dino and Capt Josip managed through upcoming potential weather patterns to maximize our enjoyment. The other travelers quickly became friends and eventually we all felt like a family. Cruising with Sail Croatia is definitely recommended to anyone we interact with once the topic of vacation enters the conversation. Thank you to Dino, Capt Josip, Kristina, Cesar, Ivan, Capo, Bogdan and Marko. You are all assets to the brand. My wife and I will be traveling with Sail Croatia again.

Sail Croatia, Dubrovnik to Split

We sailed from Dubrovnik to Split with Sail Croatia on the Katarina in July 2025. Our tour Director Ioana, Captain Ivan and all the sail Croatia crew were fantastic. Everything was well organised, the ship extremely comfortable to travel and live aboard. We highly recommend Sail Croatia for your Croatia holiday.

- Martin, 12/08/2025 10:05, Travelled in a Couple

Amazing!

My friends and I made the sail Croatia a birthday trip for me to celebrate in the Adriatic Sea! We had so much fun with our new friends on board and our amazing host Dino. Cesar and Kristina were our lovely bar staff and now have become our friends. We will definitely come back and do this trip again. Dino was very helpful with accommodating our needs and the chefs went out of their way to cater to my allergies. I have so many amazing memories from this week and I will recommend it to my friends in the states. This was the perfect way to see so many islands and coves that big cruises don’t have access to!! My only suggestion would be to have a full length mirror somewhere on the boat :) Thanks for an amazing vacation!!

The Beautiful Katarina

What can I say - this trip exceeded our expectations in every possible way. The seamless, friendly, personable, professional staff were charming and couldn't do enough for us. Special shout out to Iona our tour guide who was truly wonderful and extremely funny - we all grew very fond of her. Particularly like that the Yacht is owned by a family and run as a family business which I feel really shines through in the feel and atmosphere of the boat. The boat is beautiful - really classy and luxurious without being pretentious. We met a wonderful group of people and we built friendships and bonds that were very special and really added to our experience. Croatia is stunning and being able to have a snap shot of various different islands was wonderful. The Croatian people are so proud and patriotic it's lovely to see. We didn't want to leave and will defo be back - our favourite holiday so far. Thank you for having us x

Nothing like what was expected, captain, boat, food

The boat we where on the Mala Kate was shit, Pay the little bit extra and go on a better boat. This was my first time on a sailing boat Croatia and I expected more. The rooms were dirty, bins never cleaned , alcohol cleaned up yes. The captain took us of cause multiple times, did not stop at certain swim spots and missed actual islands throughout the whole journey. Honestly a partial refund would be expected as the experience on this was not what was promised nor the correct destinations visited. The boat was way out of ratio from male to female also.

Cayley, Sales Rep at Sail Croatia replied 2025-08-13:

Dear Kris, Thank you for taking the time to review your cruise with us this season. It is a shame to read that you felt the option you booked did not meet your expectations. We offer a wide range of different ship types to suit everyones budgets, offering different levels of accommodation and comfort. For example, our Premier ship cabins, offering spacious cabins with ensuite bathrooms and AC. I wanted to provide some more information on the decision to change the itinerary during your cruise. I can see that due to unfavourable weather, it was reported that the Captain did need to make some changes to the itinerary, I'm afraid. Due to the increase in wind and rocky seas, a swim stop was also not possible due to safety reasons. Our Captains are responsible for the safety of both the vessel and all guests onboard, and in accordance with our Terms and Conditions, they may adjust the itinerary if necessary to maintain this. I'm pleased to see that after missing Hvar earlier in the week, the Captain made sure to make this stop later during your cruise so that guests did not miss out on visiting this destination. Although some changes needed to be made due to the weather in Croatia, I can confirm that all other destinations were visited as per your itinerary, and just Mljet was skipped as a result of bad weather. We have a rigorous process in place for handling any issues that may arise whilst you are on the sail, which is included in the Pre-departure information emailed to you before the tour. I can see from our reporting that you did not raise any issues with your Sail Croatia Representative whilst you were on board Mala Kate, which is a shame as our crew could have organised additional cleaning of your cabin and emptying of bins. We have reached out to you directly to discuss your feedback further, Kris. Thank you, Cayley

The Almissa - 7 days of bliss from Dubrovnik to Split

From the moment we came aboard we were impressed. Clean, spacious (in boating terms) and amazing staff. Dino our cruise director was super knowledgeable and gave us great local tips on where to eat (all of his restaurant recommendations were a hit) and what to do. We travelled with our 21 year old son and there was something for all of us with activities such as bike riding, wine tasting and zip lining. Sail Croatia with swim stops everyday in the stunning turquoise waters of the Adriatic was the perfect way to experience a taste of this beautiful country.

Best Vacation Ever!

My husband and I both agreed that this was the best vacation we have ever had. We just completed the Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise and it was absolutely amazing. The Dalmatian Coast of Croatia and the Adriatic Sea are absolutely breathtaking. Every view was picture perfect; so that was a great start. Then, our ship, our crew and our fellow travelers made the overall experience outstanding. The crew took care of our every need. They were thoughtful and gracious. Our rooms were spacious and clean. The food was very good with generous portions. It was also a lot of fun interacting with our fellow travelers. Every stop had something new and interesting to see and the history mixed with the beauty makes this trip unforgettable. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone and we will definitely be back! Thank you to the Almissa crew for the best vacation ever!

10/10 week

We had the greatest week on board the Libertine for our flotilla week! The boat was stunning and our crew all got along great. Our skipper, Matea, was amazing and truly made the trip what is was. She was so fun, easy to talk to, friendly, professional, and went above and beyond for us to make sure we had the best time and had everything we needed for the entire week. We feel so lucky to have had her! The island stops were perfect and we had a great balance of relaxing, exploring and partying. We were so sad for the week to end and would come back and do it all over in a heartbeat!

- Hollie, 11/08/2025 19:08, Travelled with Family

Endless fun

Every day and every night was a new adventure. The crew were friendly and had no problem getting in on the antics, and the other people on the boat were a good bunch and knew how to have a good time. Would recommend to anyone looking for nonstop partying and adventures

Sailing Trip on Serenity

We had a great week sailing around the islands on Serenity with our skipper, Vedran, who was very friendly and knowledgeable and played a big part in making it a really enjoyable and memorable experience for all the family. The organisation before and during the trip was excellent. We would definitely recommend. Thanks Vedran and the whole Sail Croatia team!
