Sail Croatia September 26’

The trip was fun, just didn’t like the daily itinerary wasn’t sent until the day of and missed breakfast sometimes. The lunch meals were pretty good!

Mostly excellent

As a previous customer of Sail Croatia I knew I would enjoy myself and the company of an international gathering. It was enjoyable and the few changes were welcome. E Bikes were better but they should had wider tyres. Guides were very professional. Food was mostly very good. However, I thought that I would upgrade the boat that I had selected but I think this boat was the poorest I have been on in all four previous holidays. Rooms were small, decorations were beginning to feel very dated. Air conditioning in the bedrooms was good. Lounge areas were only adequate but outside spaces were only a little more generous, All Sail Croatia staff were good as were boat’s complement. Excellent Captain. The last day before arriving in Dubrovnik was a poor cycling day and I think that you need to find a more demanding and interesting ride. It really was disappointing In summery, better boat for Premium, more appropriate bikes, final day rethink. Thanks for running the trip.

Thank you for your 4-star review and for choosing to travel with us again. We’re pleased to hear that you enjoyed the international group, found our guides professional, enjoyed the food overall and had such positive comments about the Captain and our team. We would like to clarify your comments regarding the ship category. Your booking was on our Premier ship category, rather than a higher-category ship. Premier is designed to offer a comfortable small-ship experience, but is not our highest category of accommodation. For guests looking for a higher standard of ship, accommodation and amenities, we offer our Luxury Cycle product. We appreciate your feedback regarding the ship, e-bikes and particularly the final day of cycling into Dubrovnik, and will ensure these comments are shared with the relevant teams as we continue to review the experience. Thank you again for returning to Sail Croatia. We’re pleased that overall you enjoyed another holiday with us and appreciate your 4-star rating.

Almissa 29th August 2025

I had a fantastic week with Sail Croatia on board the Almissa. Our tour manager Sanja was simply fantastic, with excellent local knowledge and support. The swim stops in the Adriatic sea were stunning, and I simply had one of the most amazing weeks I could have. Thank you again Sanja, the crew, and Sail Croatia.

very disappointed

overall the experience wasn’t the best, our tour manager was extremely unorganised, didn’t know little bits of information such as where we were docking or roughly when it would dock, couldn’t tell us if we had swim spots for the next day. We missed some of our spots we were suppose to dock into and lots of things were left out. We also had to pay extra fees such as bus trips etc even if it wasn’t our choice to stay in a port further away from town, in my opinion that should be covered by sail as that’s something we didn’t ask for. Overall wouldn’t recommend but highly depends on the crew you’ve got on your boat.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations, particularly regarding communication from your Onboard Representative. Our itineraries are designed to offer a balance of destinations and swim stops, although these can be subject to change due to factors such as weather conditions and port availability. We appreciate that clear communication around these changes is important and are sorry if this fell short during your trip. Regarding the additional transport costs, certain optional transfers and excursions are not included in the cruise price, as outlined in our trip information. We appreciate your comments and will share your feedback with the relevant team as part of our ongoing review of the guest experience.

Very fun

A week full of fun, making new friends and carefree days. What made it even more fun was Bruno! What I did not like was the tipping policy in the end. The tour itself is already expensive and everyone spent lots of money on alcohol during those 7 days, which is exactly what the company wants. We shouldn't be the ones paying people's wages.

Simon was a great guide!!

The cleanliness and aircon on the boat was a big let down but my experience was single handedly saved by our guide Simon who made the trip unforgettable.

Sail Crotia

Great trip, the crew and the guide were the best. Wouldn’t have beeen the same without them.

Great experience

Absolutely amazing experience and crew, you’ll have the best week of your life meeting new people Boat was very old and run down but in comparison to the people and the memories you’ll make it’s worth the price would have been nice to include the taxes in the payment though was a little misleading. The other thing I didn’t like was we couldn’t mix with the sister boats only to find out it was because their drinks prices was different also

Lovely sailing across Croatia

It was a very nice trip overall with very kind crew and well organised, the cabins were nice and clean and the AC worked top. I loved the buoys and the swimstops where we could jump! Special shout out to Toni who organised the trip perfectly. Some things were slightly expensive, especially the BBQ extra charge of 30 euros was unecessary given the amount already paid, and I wish some activities could have been included as part of the original fare. Fellow travellers were very nice and agreeable, but it would be could to market the trip to other nationalities to make sure it is not only Aussies only!

A fun time with lots of memories

A great time for anyone who loves a party. Meeting lots of new people is fun and everyone on board is very friendly, it’s an extroverts dream and helps bring out introverts. The boat is somewhat comfortable, a little dated but nothing terrible, the bedding is a bit bare bones - take a proper pillow or blanket. Food is okay - nothing amazing, a few good meals during the week. Staff are very great, our guide Lauren was awesome and so were the crew. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who loves a solid party and exploring - bring your wallet, your room is secured with payment but virtually everything on board is charged, except for on board meals. Even transfers from the boat and to events is charged to you, so bring at least a few hundred euros to cover these.

Below expectations especially for price

As a solo traveller I was disappointed that there was absolutely zero effort by our tour manager to develop any connection between the group, not even an introduction of everyone’s names which I would have thought would be basic. There were only 4 solo travellers out of 35 on board and this lack of effort directly impacted the quality of socialising on board. Additional to this the quality of the boat was definitely not up to standard. I booked the premier navigator and yet our boat arrived with a broken bell, multiple broken sun lounges and the shower in my room was completely snapped off. The sailing through Croatia part was definitely a highlight however the actual experience provided by Sail Croatia was well below expectations. I would book with another company in future.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review. We’re pleased to hear that sailing through Croatia was a highlight of your trip, and we also appreciate your positive ratings for our crew and meals onboard, which you rated 4 and 5 stars in our internal feedback. Our Navigator cruises are designed as social experiences, with a shared atmosphere and opportunities for guests to meet and socialise throughout the week. While our Guide does their best to bring the group together and encourage interaction, the social experience also naturally depends on individuals being open to meeting and engaging with one another. That said, we do take your comments onboard and will continue to review ways we can encourage interaction within the group, including different ice-breakers and introductions at the beginning of the cruise. We have also reviewed the feedback received from other guests on this departure, including from fellow solo travellers, and were pleased to see that the departure was highly rated overall. We’re therefore sorry to hear that your experience did not reflect the same positive experience shared by many of your fellow guests. We’re glad you enjoyed the Croatian sailing experience and appreciate you sharing your feedback with us.

A great week

Really cool time away. Our staff were awesome. Great weather and smooth sailing

Fun, but Pricey

Yeah it was a great trip. Excursions were fun and there was a great vibe on the boat. I will make some complaints. The boat itself did not have any sails whatsoever. It was a bit old and rundown and smelled quite bad on the lower deck. Most mornings you don't sleep in from the noise of the motor. I feel like the drinks were a bit steep and especially the bell rings being 128 euros was ridiculous. Felt like exploiting customers for more profit. There is no way serving 30 odd people some shots is worth over 100 euros. Also the bartender used his hands to put ice in the buckets. Not anyones fault but something to be aware of was the whole boat ended up getting sick by the end of it and you would hear loud coughing at night. Having to pay in cash was a let down. Someone had a bar tab of over 1000euro and had to pay $44 in atm fees and call his bank. I would have appreciated being able to top up my tab in advance via card. The port fees being included was obviously just to make sure you

First sail Croatia trip

Overall I have a great time both on and off the boat. The crew was friendly and professional. The experience was memorable. If the age grouping could be fine tuned a little I would def consider another trip with sail Croatia. I was a little out of place with a group who were older than I was. My age or slightly younger would have been preferable.

Beyond all expectations

A to be repeated expectation of extraordinary landscape exercise and relaxation led by a wonderful group of integrated staff, guides Tonka and Callum and a much respected leader.... The Mali Luka Captain Ivan and his trainee. Thank you everyone. Georgie

Sail Croatia “tempera”

Brilliant , Lauren was fantastic. The crew were awesome! We had a good blend of people on the boat, from all over the world. Food was good and the places where we went were absolutely beautiful. The only complaint I have was the bed and sheets were a little short for me I am 6’2” I didn’t like the fact we had to “pay in cash” for the bar tab and local taxes at the end of the trip.

A Real Review

It was a great week, great people and lots of fun! Many additional costs in the week for excursions, dinners etc that makes the trip cost a lot more than you realise. The trip leader was great but sometimes felt a little salesy and not genuinely caring. He offhanded a lot of organisation to participants who had to initiate activities to bring people together. Sometimes noone knew what was going on because plans weren't communicated. Would have liked more collabs with other boats at parties; the crowd was mainly our boat and other people at the club were a bit odd, especially some older Croatian men. At the Cave Club, people were getting preyed on and this club already had a known reputation for dodgy stuff, but noone informed us until it happened. Food was quite good. Each island had much to offer and explore, and the people on the boat were a lot of fun. Overall, a solid week and a unique experience - daily swims, lots of laughs, making friends - but may not do again in hindsight.

Thank you for taking the time to review your cruise with us! We are delighted to hear you had a great week on board and enjoyed the daily swim stops, food and socialising with new people, whilst exploring the islands together. It is very important to us to set the right expectations for our guests, so we do list additional costs on both our website and the Pre-Departure Information that is emailed to our guests one week prior to your cruise. Regarding your comment re the clubs, we do completely agree with you and as with any nightclub in any country, it is very important to remain vigilant and the more awareness guests have, the better. We appreciate you as a valued guest of ours and appreciate your feedback, thank you for this and for a fantastic week in Croatia.

Pleased

It really was a great trip, Marin and Mario were exceptional. They covered all the bases for having a safe and worry, free experience, very professional. Personally, I could’ve used a little bit longer routes to cycle and myself and a few others felt the last cycle stop was a little risky getting on and off the boat. I’m off to extend my journey and vacation, but I think that this part of it’s gonna be the best of everything overall Thanks, John.

Sail Croatia Cruise

Comfortable cabin. Tasty food. My food preferences were accommodated. Nice tours were organised. Tour operator was pleasant and accommodating. Standard of wine was good.

- Denise , 16/09/2025 15:39, Travelled Solo

For people younger than me...

36F and definitely felt too old for the Navigator Cruise (everyone else was 30 or less which I think is the correct age to enjoy the experience). I also felt the cabins were very basic - again I'm probably too old, but it was more basic than the backpacker cruise I'd taken in Australia the previous year and due to the marketing I was expecting something a little more comfortable so it felt like a let down. It was also dissapointing to only be given Instant Coffee at breakfast. It would have also been nice to have information regarding the expected amount of the tips given prior to booking given they were >10% of the cost of the tour. On the upside, the Tour Manager was amazing and went out of his way to make sure I had a good trip. The crew was super kind and the ship was always clean. I'd give the Tour Manager and Crew 6/5 if I could! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the trip to someone younger but for me personally, the experience was just OK.

Hi there, thank you for your review. We’re really pleased to hear that you found the Tour Manager and crew exceptional, and that the ship was always clean and well cared for – we’ll be sure to pass your kind words on. As per our website, Navigator Cruises are our most popular party cruises for independent, like-minded travellers between the ages of 18 and 39. The product is available on 3 types of ships - Premier, Ensuite and Standard. I can see you were accommodated in one of our Standard cabins. Standard ships are a great option if you want excellent value for money and don't mind compact cabins or shared showers and toilets. For a more varied age demographic and a wider range of experiences, we would suggest our Explorer Cruise, which typically appeals to those aged 20's - 60's, however is open to all ages over 15+ and offers a variety of ship types to suit different budgets and comfort preferences - all Explorer ships include ensuite and air-conditioning. Tipping is always optional, with guidance provided in your pre-departure document, as we aim to be fully transparent about costs. Despite your personal disappointment, we’re pleased to hear you would still recommend the trip and hope to welcome you on one of cruises in the future!

A Fun Adventure

It was my first time on a cruise and also my first time in Croatia. I was a bit nervous at first, but it turned out to be a lovely experience. I was surprised, however, that the age demographic was much older, and there wasn’t really anyone my age. I also expected the hiking to be more challenging, but it was quite slow and leisurely—which did suit some of the group. That said, the crew and tour guides were incredibly welcoming, and I really enjoyed meeting everyone on board. They did their best to make sure we had a great week in Croatia, and I’m thankful I took the risk and tried something new. Overall, it was a fun and memorable adventure!

Amazing time

I had an amazing time on sail Croatia, it’s absolutely stunning and an experience I will never forget. The guests on my boat and the staff made this experience truly unforgettable. Our chef Darren was AMAZING, he made the most incredible vegetarian options going to so much effort even though I was the only vegetarian on board! Our guide Ante was kind and approachable with any questions, and truly wanted everyone to have an amazing time. Having a local guide like Ante made such a difference as he had so much more insight and knowledge than a foreign guide would be able to have. The only reason for a loss of a star was a cleanliness issue on board, but other then that it was perfect!

A fantastic itinerary

The boat (Queen Jelena), the intinerary from Dubrovnik to Split, the regular swim stops and the food, was all outstanding. However, I also did not feel like I needed a full 3-course sit-down meal in the middle of the day EVERY day. Our tour leader was informative, helpful and lovely. Perhaps the only disappointment was that the boat was half full (in July??) with 12 other passengers : 3 couples and the rest retired single and/or divorced women in their 70s. (I still work and was holidaying solo for a break and some fun). By the 4th night I was feeling trapped in the slow lane and trying to avoid the "horrible ex-husband" stories.. That said, I do recommend Sail Croatia, and I understand you cannot control who books a tour at the same time as you. However I found the Elegance cruise to be better suited to travellers seeking a slower pace.

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

Take me back

I loved how comfortable was. Arriving as a sooo traveller it was scary. But the boat felt like home. I also love how it was definitely worth your money. Breakfast and lunch included! really made things easier. We also had sm time on our hands. I loved going out. Our tour guide was so funny and definitely made it memorable. And we had such a beautiful crew. I got very lucky last week. Now I’m left with post Sail Croatia depression.

Super Cycle Tour

My second Sail Croatia holiday and just as good as the first. I chose the Split Northern Cycle Tour to explore some new places and more of some of the places I'd visited previously, It was a great trip with an excellent multi national bunch of people on board. We were well looked after and the rides were excellent, scenic, varied, interesting and challenging but do go for the e-bike option unless you are a serious bike rider!

A week to remember!!

I had such a fun week aboard the Penelopa navigator cruise! From amazing food, stunning scenery, daily swim stops, free time exploring the towns, optional excursions and of course daily happy hour and clubbing, it was a great way to see and experience Croatia. Shout out to our amazing crew especially our bartenders/waiters Charlie and Ivan, our chef Robbie and captain Big Daddy and his wife and dog Daisy who worked hard to make the experience extra special. Grateful for our rep Lovre who kept us all organised and in check. He really came out of his shell by the end of the trip and felt like one of the group, making an effort to have fun and socialise with everyone. My highlights of the week were the buggies in Korcula, the bikes in Mljet national park, the daily swim stops and many of the clubs. Only let down was the boat itself being so old and run down - the below deck rooms were tiny and hot and there were not enough showers for the amount of people on board. Doors did not lock.

Review

The boat itself and bar staff were amazing. The tour guide was late on ship which was fine but when we all boarded she didn’t introduce herself until later that evening and no one knew what was going on a many hours. She only really interacted via WhatsApp to give us a plan of the day but wasn’t until midday so it felt quite unorganised and I didn’t love not knowing what we were doing. She spent a lot of time on her phone, smoking and vaping and wasn’t interactive besides the “crew talk”. I wish it was a bit more organised. However besides that, the bar man kept us up to date always and was very nice and chatty.

Caring guides, Marin is a great story teller and knows a lot about the history of Croatia.

It felt like I was with family whilst on the boat. I needed to go to hospital and was cared for brilliantly by Marin and Johnny. The cycling was fantastic getting to see so much of each Island.

Sale di Mare, Split to Dubrovnik

The guide, Anita, was excellent. Charming, efficient and most helpful. It was a joy to have such service. I cannot recommend her too much. The crew were very helpful. Food not so good- too much overcooked meat, just one fish dish in 7 days.. Good bar service. Most enjoyable party after the captain',s dinner- lots of dancing ! I did not engage in excursions, as too strenuous for my age.. Others enjoyed them.. Cabin fine and very efficient and pleasant cleaner.

I wouldnt say its a life changing experience but one to ticket off the bucket list

With Sail Croatia it is really for those aged between 18-28. Anyone above 30 and you feel a little out of place. These days everyone is traveling in groups of 2-6. Gone of the days of solo travellers from my recent sail where there was only 4 of us solo travellers. It does make it a little harder to meet people but I guess at the end of the day it really is a luck of the draw. It definitely is a good experience. Just prepare to be oboard with a bucket load of aussies haha

Great way to see the Islands of Crotia

The experience of being on the boat, swim spots, and visiting the different islands was great. For those looking for a more adventurous trip might want something different as this has a lot of downtime. Great intro to life on a boat!

Solo Boat

Sail Croatia needs a boat dedicated to solo only travellers. My experience was fun and thoroughly enjoyed it although it was somewhat difficult to socialize with others as they were glued to their friend until roughly day 5 where everyone started to branch out and really connect as a group.

Salve Di Mare explorer cruise

Tonka and Loana were great cruise leaders . They and the rest of the crew were very friendly and always available to answer questions and /or help in any way. They were also very flexible with regard to on-boat activities . The swim stops were beautiful and safe. The boat was steady .It was a wonderful way to explore the small islands along the Croatian coast. It was great that the bar was open to the wee hours. However, a more diverse cocktail menu is suggested.The wines were great. There were a few snags on the boat. E.g. intermittent unpleasant sulphur-like oder in the cabin. The cabin could use brighter lighting , especially in the bathroom. Also, I would suggest washable flooring in the cabins to make them less prone to mildew. The Sail Croatia experience was spectacular! I would do it again.

I’m so grateful for our trip leader Ceili was an absolute legend I felt like she was one of us, she was so helpful, took the time to get to know us all and spent most of her time with us!

Not what you expect

For the price that you pay which is quite exorbitant I don’t think this experience lives up to the cost or the hype. While the crew and the staff on board as well as the guide are absolutely lovely and the service was great the boat is old, creaky and smelly.. The air-conditioning barely worked and people complained non-stop about the Aircon not working. There were no fans even on deck which are desperately needed to combat the unbearable European summer heat. Unfortunately it did not live up to the expectations and certainly not to the reviews I’ve seen on site. The boats need full renovations and need to be fully updated in order for them to be able to get a higher rating.

Great week but felt like I was sold a different experience

The advert just makes it look like we are having sea parties with the masses of boats with inflatables that didn’t happen. There was only one time the 5 sailing boats were merged together at sea and happened to be a day it was raining so wasn’t great timing unfortunately. It also takes a lot of timing and our boat was last to get linked but first to leave. The breakfast could be done better as sometimes didn’t know what in the fridge was for the breakfast, although could ask. It did vary but not to everyone’s likings etc. If there is a budget for breakfast then maybe at the start of the week suggest to write a list from everyone of what they would want and keep in a section of the fridge. I was disappointed not doing the zip line. Canyoning was offered as alternative as it wasn’t running but I heard other boats had done the zip line so just unlucky on that day. Although no fault of Sail Croatia, there was around 6-7 males and 33-34 females, so maybe ask before if prefer a mix.

Thank you again for all of your constructive comments and for choosing to travel with Sail Croatia. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back on another adventure soon!

It was okay

It really depends on the group & crew that makes the trip. The bartender on the boat wasn't the most pleasant and the chef was horrible. I knew going on the boat that the food was not going to be the best but it was horrible. Also, I didn't like how we didn't have to much free time and the swim spots were okay, nothing great either. Overall, the trip was okay.

Best week of my life

I was lucky enough to get the best group of people and best crew. But all I can say is that booking the ensuite boat for navigator is definitely all you’ll need for a week. You’ll have more fun on this boat if you’re solo or with one or two mates. If you’re travelling with a bigger group of friends you should think about selecting a nicer boat.

Sail Croatia: Premier Lower Deck

Was very happy with the room, both the bedroom and bathroom were decently sized and had good facilities. The food on the boat was really great, we were never hungry. The crew were kind and hardworking. I wish we could’ve been informed on our swim spots more. The boat would just depart from them without notice so you might miss out or jump in without realising we were about to leave. I think our tour manager could’ve gave us better suggestions on what to do in town. Sail is a great way to travel and I really enjoyed my week!

29 females and 1 male

Sail Croatia really let me down with my experience by not mixing the people on our boat. Out of 30 people there were 29 women (13 of which were one big group that were not very interested in socialising outside of their group) the one male was a partner of the only couple on the boat. I believe variety in people would have most definitely improved everyone's experience. While our tour manager was absolutely lovely and kind I was disappointed with their lack of knowledge of Croatia in general. Unfortunately their inexperience showed when they struggled to comand respect and order when addressing the group. This showed when organising activities or even getting people excited meet up to learn about our beautiful scenic stops. The crew onboard were so lovely and accommodating. The food was great. After stopping at a few ports and seeing the variety in types of Sail Croatia Boats I was also disappointed that when booking I was not given options to upgrade to a boat with better facilities.

The views, food and friends made were amazing! Wanted to say a special thanks to our crew and in particular our trip manager Andro.

Great time and made tons of friends, drinks too pricey

I had a great time aboard the Afrodita while being a solo traveler. I met tons of friends and shared great memories. The food and on board entertainment were great, but the bar prices were not competitive at all. Drinks were €10-12 and happy hour was only 10% off. Bell ring shots were also €120 at the start of the trip and usually mostly juice unless you were watching the bartender and telling him to pour more alcohol. When comparing with passengers in other boats, their drinks were only €4 (didn't have to pay for mixers) and bell rings on their boat were only €80. If our boat had cheaper drinks, more drinks would have been purchased on board, but our group was considered fairly tame because people didn't end up buying many drinks on board. More money could have been made by this boat on alcohol, but they were stingy with prices and portions and wondered why they didn't make much money. The trip overall was great, but the bar was their biggest downfall.

- Michael , 29/07/2024 15:12, Travelled Solo

Great time, was hoping for more though

Overall, I did enjoy my week with Sail Croatia! The cabins are tiny, but what I expected on a sailing boat. The boat was super clean when we boarded and linen/towels were provided. I loved the little swim stops between each island visit. Some things I didn't enjoy was the 'skipper' part of the boat. Maybe I read the trip wrong, but I was hoping the skipper would also be a bit of a guide on each of the islands. Our Skipper would just point out a few restaurants where we docked then we wouldn't see him again. He didn't mention any excursions we could do on the islands or even how to get around the island really. I would say he was more of a taxi driver. The schedule also changed and we were not told. We were never really told what was going on, which was very annoying. Anyways, I had a great time meeting others as a solo traveller and most of the others were super fun and nice. I wished we had more boats in our 'flotilla' (only ours and 1 other)

Where did all my money go towards?

I felt throughout the whole trip I was being asked to pay extra for random aspects such as bus transfers, water ferry’s. I feel like I don’t understand where my almost $2000 went. The crew and guide were amazing but all the hidden extra costs are not explained properly. I feel the initial price should be increased or have a lump sum you can do at the start with card instead of having to try get exact cash for everything. We had a ratio of 19 females to 3 males which is just ridiculous. I feel there should be allocated spots for males and females to have an appropriate dynamic. The people I was with were amazing and did save the trip and I really did enjoy myself but the random hassles all throughout the trip really did not make me want to rebook with sail Croatia again.

Great Guide, Great Crew, A Few things to improve

First up, Ana, our guide, was top notch and probably the best guide I've had on any trip. She provided comprehensive maps at each stop of good restaurants, museums, attractions and bars, carried herself very professionally, and was always polite and informative. She is an asset for Sail Croatia. The staff, were also brilliant. Particularly Branko on the bar. You want your bar staff to be funny, eccentric and great to have a conversation with, and Branko exceeded expectations on all three! The food was also impeccable. The Explorer cruise was also a very good crowd. Perhaps slightly older and more couples than I expected, but it suited me well. The only parts where Sail Croatia fell short for me was some of the experiences. Not having an alternative option instead of rafting (which was unavailable in Makarska on my trip) was disappointing. Even a short walk along the Cetina would have been OK. The Korcula buggy tour was also short and expensive for what it was.

Skipper training course

I participated in the Professional Skipper training course for 10 days. Scott was an excellent instructor, really tough at first because there is a lot of new information to learn especially if you have no sailing experience like I did. I knew nothing on Day 1, but by Day 10 knew all the boat terminology, how to dock, how to put sails up, how to read the wind and understand how it will affect the boat, etc. Giving 4 stars because the program description on the website wasn't very specific. I emailed back and forth with the Sail Croatia office about what to expect and if the course provided licensing or if they could organize the licensing exam. The answers were very vague and so I was left not knowing what to expect after the course. Also, I completely under packed, they sent a packing list a week prior which stated to bring summer clothes, but it was quite chilly. I would have liked to have more specific information on what to expect rather than waiting to come on the course.

Would I do it again?

The easy answer...YES. However a bit differently... I would recommend going in peak season so the weather doesn't interfere with your itinerary. Be prepared to spend more money than you think! The party cruise is 110% partying every single day...your liver definitely gets a run for its money. Overall your group makes the experience. As a solo traveler I still had the best time and made so many friends/memories!!!!!!!

Beautiful Trip

Great trip and experience and unique way to see all that Croatia and the Islands offer. The food onboard was generous and fresh and satisfying. The routes were gorgeous with views you can't beat. Pros- Kind and knowledgeable guides, beautiful routes, plentiful food Cons- the room was not clean with belongings left in the cabinets from other passengers (staff?). There was a horrendous smell of sewage that made the toilet/shower in the room difficult to use. I've sailed on boats in the past and never experienced an odor like that in the past. There was hair left on the floors in the room and bathroom. Time at night on the islands was limited as one night they said we would be docked too far back which kept us from access to the main port (well over 1 mi walk over rocky and dark terrain). Changed itinerary due to weather prevented advertised bay swims and less time to enjoy ports. I often felt we has a short time to see sights (less than 30 minutes most days).

Hi Leslie, thank you for taking the time to review us and provide your feedback. It is great to hear you have enjoyed yourself, that you found our itinerary gorgeous and have enjoyed the scenic views on offer. Thank you for your kind comments on our experienced guides and the food provided onboard- it's not easy producing great meals for so many people with a limited kitchen but the chefs manage to do that - heroes! We are sorry to hear you experienced issues with the smell in the bathroom. At times if there is bad weather, smell can occur in the bathroom emitting from the shower drains. This is very specific with small ship cruising and it is due to the movement of the ships on the water whereby this movement opens up airflow at the back of the pipe and into the bathroom. This is addressed in the Welcome Speech by the Sail Croatia Representative on board. I have checked our records, and cannot see any reports raised regarding any cleanliness issues. If we were made aware, these would have been rectified immediately. I understand it can be frustrating when there are changes to an itinerary, however this is at the Captain's discretion and usually due to safety reasons, which is our number one priority. Thank you again for joining us and we can't wait to see you with us again!

Solo in Croatia

overall great cruise format. goods: excellent food - almost too much food. most meals I couldn't finish the main course. very attentive to my food allergies. crew excellent. great service team. accommodations - excellent. room was nice size with plenty of storage. shower/toilet combo was good size and always cleaned. all the stops were fantastic - whether swim stop or port stop. Our guide manager Boris was FANTASTIC. Adapted to our group vibe and adjusted tours and stop recommendations accordingly. I went from D to S --- fantastic option to maximize travel to islands. others: The only land based tour I was a little disappointed with was in Vis. The Vis military tour. We didn't do the subpens, as described. The rest of the tour was fine, but there was too much time spent herding folks to get the full tour. NOT a Sail Croatia tour, but maybe they can pick another provider.

- Dee, 26/09/2023 09:33, Travelled Solo

Unreal Trip!

Our Crew Leader Nikola went above and beyond on so many occasions for not only our boat (Big Blue) but for passengers on other boats. There were two times that some of the girls on the other boats were in a distressful situation from locals or other unrelated tourists. He got them back to the boat safely in a seamless and timely manner, His attentiveness to safety for everyone was incredible. The only fault was we had 3 lounge chairs on the top deck of the boat to share between 25.

Sail Croatia Review

I felt like it was almost expected of us to drink every single night, which led to many of us feeling sick and terrible by the end of the week and not actually enjoying the beautiful places we stopped at. I wish there were more non-drinking activities so we could’ve gotten to know everyone better. Sometimes it felt like you couldn’t participate unless you were drinking. Our boat was also definitely one of the cheapest models. If I had a little more detail about what exactly each boat entailed I probably would’ve booked the next level up. That being said, the crew was fantastic and our guide was great.

Hi Julia, thank you for your review! We are pleased to read you were happy with the crew on board and your Sail Croatia Representative, thank you for this. Our Navigator cruises are designed for 18-39 year old travellers looking to socialise, party and meet others, so often some of the guests on board will consume alcohol. This is of course entirely up to each individual. With regards to ship types, the difference between each category can be found on our website and on the Navigator cruise page. I can confirm the Standard ship category you booked is the lowest price and usually aimed at guests on a budget, and usually perfect for travellers backpacking across Europe! Thank you so much for joining us in Croatia this summer.

Nice cruise

Nice boat ! Shared a cabin with a stranger and it worked out great Food on boat was hit or miss. Coffee should’ve been served with dessert Chef accommodated my gluten free status very nicely. Beautiful swim stops every day. Turquoise water !! It would have been nice if boat had paddle boards or. Kayaks but it was fun anyway My only real criticism was of 2 of the stops Mjlet only had a park to go to and nothing else Milna was a very quiet island with a very small town and just restaurants Hvar was amazing and we didn’t arrive until 4:30 pm which stunk Local village dinner very good Staff was accommodating Tour guide very friendly and informative Oh and the pillows stink too! Needed two of them!!! Overall a good deal for the price

- Alyce, 11/09/2023 21:37, Travelled Solo

A few Changes

The food at lunch should be lighter and healthier.; not pasta and risotto. Sandwiches, salads, roasted vegetables, wraps, would be better. We don’t need dessert. Coffee needs to be out during the morning for longer that one hour. Keep coffee out until 11:00 AM. Happy Hour from 6-7. Drinks at bar poor quality. Quality of cabin was not great. I wasn’t expecting much, but the handle was off my drawer in the bathroom & bed and pillow VERY uncomfortable. I DID enjoy my trip as there was more to enjoy than these things and had a great time. Thank you.

Hi Sarah, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are really pleased to hear you enjoyed your time on the cruise and Croatia as a whole. We are disheartened to hear of the issues raised.

Upon viewing the feedback you provided, we are happy to know you enjoyed the Captain's Dinner and other aspects of your cruise. We are disappointed to read about the drawer handle and pillow - we have a rigorous process in place for any issues that arise onboard, which is outlined in your pre-departure information and following this process ensures that no incident is left unreported. Had we been made aware, we would have resolved this immediately for you. We understand that coffee is important to some, so we provide filtered coffee which is available during breakfast hours and complimentary instant coffee is also available during the day. You also have the option of capsual coffee payable via your bar tab. We appreciate your comments and are thrilled to know that the issues raised didn't deter from your overall enjoyment onboard.

Beautiful locations

Our boat itself was fantastic, make sure you book the Gradina. Also a huge shout out to the chef who was fantastic. Our lunches and 2 dinners were delicious. My experience was tainted by the make up of the group, but that is the risk you take with group tours. The activities were the highlight though especially the Mljet national park bike ride.

solo american VIP

this trip was amazing! its a well oiled machine, the swim spots, the activities, the nightlife. I'm convinced the only way to see the croatian coast fully is by boat. Im really glad i did the VIP navigator on the salve di mare ship, it was clearly the nicest ship. also the perks were great for the VIP, the food was good, the maid service daily, the ship itself was beautiful. the rooms were even more spacious than expected. i didn't realize this was almost an exclusive aussie trip so that was a surprise, i was expecting people from all over the world. luckily most people were nice and whoever was annoyed by me being american i just kept my distance. i did expect more solo travelers but it was actually a lot of couples. or groups of couple friends. i wish the drinks on the boat were a little cheaper to encourage more mingling on the boat, everyone just seemed to be drinking in their rooms to avoid the prices at the bar.

Fun, but not totally what expected

Sail Croatia was fun in general if you like partying everyday. For me was okish, from their social media I expected it to be a lot of swim stops, but in reality it’s very quick morning stop -some of the days then your stuck in port most of the time. They changed our tour around a little bit so we didn’t get to see stari grad. Food quality for price could have been way better, way too much pork/meat and not much flavor, breakfast wasn’t good so I ended up skipping it everyday.. They activities they offer aren’t the best, I think the zip lining was the best but the buggying was not worth the money. The tour guide we had she was very nice but not super informative, but from other people I spoke to seemed we got very lucky with out staff members as other boats girls were getting harassed and bar tabs wrong. Probably wouldn’t sail again unless it was VIP and different cruise type.

Average

“Tuna” itself was really good, the aircon worked and the chef was fantastic. It was quite spacious for an ensuite boat. A few notes on this trip- the Tour guide was very unenthusiastic from check in on day 1. This was in regards to everything from excursions, to pub crawls. The pub crawls were very unorganised and communication overall could have been better. Restaurants for dinner were very average. Although Excursions were fun, they were well overpriced. The breakfast advertised was a buffet with an assortment of sausages/meat, eggs, pastries, cereal, fruit etc. The breakfast provided was continental style with one type of egg, toast, cereal and fruit, which was a bit of a let down.

A beautiful experience

The boat was clean and very comfortable The bar crew were super friendly and the service was excellent. The food I found was not good, too heavy and over cooked. A lunch buffet would have been so much better similar to breakfast, greasy and light. Klara our guide was great, super friendly and always there for you. My only suggestion would be some more activities especially for the solo traveller. Some days were same same. I found in Split we were left with no guidance or suggestions on what we could do while waiting for our late afternoon plane departure Thanks Sail Croatia and Klara

Excellent Food and Staff

I appreciated the staff and culinary efforts for my Elegance Cruise. My accommodations were as expected. I would have appreciated more information or recommendations for off-boat experiences throughout the cruise. It would have also been appreciated if the bar stayed open past 11pm on the Captain's Dinner evening (when we were told it would be).

Sadly not worth the hype anymore

First I want to say the crew was amazing, very helpful and friendly. Also the food was epic. Unfortunately on my ship our rep left after 1 day and we were stranded, the new rep came on and bless her soul she was lovely but not suited to a party boat. The boat I was on as well had one big group of friends who didn't really want to mingle that much with everyone else or actually party much which was annoying. My roommate was also very sick and she got me sick, so I'm angry about that because it's ruined my trip. All the food places we went to were hella expensive and meh, also the clubs were over hyped and too expensive. The drinks on the boat were annoyingly over priced and so we just didn't want to pay those prices to drink a lot. I was recommended this by a friend but unfortunately I will be telling people not to waste their money especially if traveling solo. It was the worst part of my trip so far.

Wild times on the Croatian coast

Swimming in beautifully clear water, making friends with a bunch of amazing people and partying in some of the coolest clubs and locations you’ll find in the world. I had a great time doing Sail Croatia but it’s something I’d only do once. Be prepared to be a shell of yourself when you get off the boat. Four stars because our first tour guide got fired half way through (thankfully because he was completely useless) and because he/the boat tried to scam us into paying for the air conditioning even though it was advertised as being included in the price.

Good experience and would recommend!

Overall, I had a very lovely time and the Adriatic sea is beautiful. The highlight of the trip was our tour manager named Ivana. She was excellent, was giving great and truthful advice, and even helped me book my taxi to the airport. Without her, my trip would not have been as good. The captain was also very friendly and helpful! The boat was also in good condition and the sundeck was my highlight. The crew kept us safe and were very mindful that we always had water and electricity (a task in itself when we are sailing every day and the docks were extra busy during peak season). The food and cleanliness was ok. Given the price and the overall experience, I had a really great time and would recommend to others.

Lack of information

Our tour guide was not involved in the group at all. He did nothing to combine the different groups and so as a solo traveling it was unenjoyable. I feel as though he did the bare minimum, but didn’t even give adequate information. For example, when we went on the buggies there was a 30 mins break where we could have gone swimming but he didn’t mention this to us. So, the whole group missed out and were extremely hot. He never went out of his way to communicate much at all

We are pleased to inform you that our internal reporting shows that the majority of guests on your ship provided great feedback for the cruise and the service provided by our onboard Rep. However, we are disappointed to learn that your experience did not align with the rest of the group's positive feedback and this will be passed on. Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to welcome you back at another opportunity.

Needs improvement for solo guests

The ship, crew, tour leader, food etc. was simply awesome. Can’t fault the destinations and sight seeing either. Absolutely stunning. However the booking system needs serious improvement. Large groups are placed on the boat which inherently makes it hard for solo guests to socialise as these groups are generally not as interested to meet new people. It makes solo guests feel awkward and like a ‘spare wheel’. It was clear our tour manager could see this occurring. It would be far better if solo guests or small groups be placed together, and Sail Croatia would have known these groups were on the ship with me. Pretty disappointed I wasn’t given the option to even downgrade vessel, if that meant I could be with more ‘like-minded’ travellers or guests. I’m going to find it difficult to recommend to others who are solo travelling as well….Coupled to this when placed in a room with a complete stranger, give each guest a key. If either guest wants to do different activities, makes things awk.

Hi Thomas, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your review and your constructive feedback. It is wonderful to read that the ship, the crew, your representative and the sights and sounds of visited destinations didn't disappoint. Your feedback regarding having 2 x sets of keys per cabin is very welcomed and has been passed on to our Operations team and the Captain. Regarding the mix of travellers onboard your cruise, our cruises aren't specifically sold or booked as solo traveller cruises and everyone is welcome onboard. The final mix of travellers is inevitably dependent on any bookings that we receive and I can see we did have some other solo travellers booked apart from yourself. We are sad to hear that the overall mix wasn't to your expectations and satisfactions, however, it is great to see that overall, based on your submitted feedback, you would still recommend us. Thanks again for joining us this season!

So much potential.

I enjoyed the Sail Croatia experience, however, do feel that it can be very much luck of the draw when it comes to other boat personnel, which is such a crucial aspect of the week. When there are multiple large groups on each vessel, it can be hard to really get groups interacting all together, especially for solos. The other issue can be around age disparity. Perhaps more transparency over the booking arrangements of each boat could help this.

Hi Edward, thank you for taking the time to review your Navigator cruise with us this season - it was a pleasure to have you on board. We're very happy reading that you enjoyed your Sail Croatia experience, this is great. With regards to your feedback on fellow travellers, I will be sure to pass this onto the relevant teams. All of our Navigator cruises are open to guests aged between 18 and 39 years old, so the age range is quite wide and our Reps work hard to create a good group dynamic that everyone on board can enjoy. I can see you had other solo guests on your cruise, which is always nice to see. We hope to see you join us again! Thank you.

Would not recommend.

The advertising for Sail Croatia isn't clear because the Navigator cruise is marketed for ages 18-39 but this blog post from the official website says the cruise is perfect for people under 30: https://www.sail-croatia.com/set-sail/which-ship-type-is-right-for-me-a-navigator-guide Also got food poisoning from the boat so I had to miss an activity I wanted to go to although some activities were overpriced for what they were. For example, the buggying in Korcula cost 60 euros but involved a half an hour break where you just sat around doing nothing. The ziplining involved driving back the way you had just come by boat for 40-60 minutes and then having to wait to be driven all the way back afterwards so it takes up a lot of unnecessary time. Also the bike riding in Mljet is just a bike hire, literally no helmet or anything else so this was expensive for what it was too. On the first day the check in ended up being later (after 12 pm) and we missed the first day swim stop. Refund me.

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your Sail Croatia experience. Regarding the age range on board we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We have the correct age noted on our Navigator pages and will update the link provided. The activities offered are a highlight for many guests and we understand the frustration when activities do not meet expectations. Your feedback regarding the pricing has been noted, and we will pass it on to the appropriate department. In regards to food poisoning, upon checking our internal records I can see on the 3rd July you had notified the onboard representative that you were unwell the night before. The onboard representative assisted immediately and no further issues were reported hereafter. There were also no incidences relating to food poisoning onboard. Regarding the check-in time, we aim for a check-in from 10:30am. Any delays in the process will be communicated to our guests. Thank you for sharing your concerns, and we value your input. If you have any further questions or require additional assistance, please feel free to reach out to us.

Amazing host and people !

I had the best week abroad Penelopa with host Caitlin and while I think there are some improvements that need to be made, I still had an amazing time. Caitlin was such a fun, personable and knowledgeable host who was committed to helping us have the best time possible. The boat could do with some improvements, such as the showering facilities and lack of fans in each below deck room, as this made sleeping rather uncomfortable. We also had some changes to our schedule, outside of Caitlin’s control, that were rather disappointing and left us missing out on activities such as kayaking and buggy ing which were all crowd favourites. All in all I had the most amazing week with such a good groups of people who I now call dear friends!

- Caitlin, 07/07/2023 13:51, Travelled Solo

Underwhelming-not worth the money

I enjoyed my time but was it worth the amount of money I spent? No way, could’ve had a much better time spending less money doing something different. Obvious attempts to make extra profits left a sour taste. Drink prices on board were similar to a bar and lot’s of people found discrepancies between what they were charged and what they ordered. Nearly everyone just drank offshore towards the end of the cruise. The BBQ dinner was the most obvious sign of taking our cash. Charging us 25 Euro’s for a BBQ and offering no other alternative for dinner since we were out of port was shocking. Was just very average food so reckon it cost about 10 euro’s per person. Some other compulsory charges like the tourist tax should’ve just been included in the initial price anyway, if we 100% have to pay it then why exclude it from the initial price?

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and provide us with feedback. It is great to hear you enjoyed your time onboard our Navigator cruise. We strive to ensure accurate and transparent billing for all our guests when it comes to the bar tab. You are also welcome to ask for a daily tally of your tab as one can easily lose track of what has been consumed during the week. Regarding the pricing, Croatia has only recently adopted Euros as a currency and we are going through a phase of adjusting the local pricing. We are sorry to hear you didn't find the BBQ to be of good value. Please rest assured your feedback has been passed to the Captain. All local tourist tax is payable locally rather than packaged in a price of the holiday. You will find this is a standard practice across the industry in various destinations and not just Croatia. Thank you again for your feedback and do come and see us again!

Disappointed and I regret Sailing with Sail Croatia

As a solo traveller, this experience was very disappointing and I regret my decision to travel with Sail Croatia. There were so few solo travelers and zero effort from anyone to integrate us into the group, so I spent a very lonely week on board.

Great experience

My tour guide Sam. He knew all the places to go and was always organised. He had all the answers to any question and was not only a great leader but a great friend. My favourite part was the swim stops and wished there was more. Could not recommend this experience enough to anyone!!

Navigator cruise food

The food on our boat was horrible. There was very little provided for breakfast (usually just bread with butter) and the included lunch was always extremely disappointing (usually soup with bread and some kind of boiled meat). We were all very hungry and there were no snacks provided during the day- we couldn’t bring our own snacks on board and we didn’t dock until the afternoon so there was no option to get off the boat to buy food. The rest of the tour was amazing and I would definitely do it again.

Had a great time if below were fixed i would defintley give 5 stars

The team were awesome most of the activities were great. The boat was good value for money. Some of the lunches were a bit bland, a second option would be good too. Even if we could decide the day before to avoid waste. Hot showeres would of been nice Wouldnt affect my rating *A group chat before the tour started would be cool to meet other people.

Fun! Fun! Fun!

What a convenient way of getting to see all the amazing islands off the coast of Croatia! The staff work so hard to make sure everyone is having a good time. A little costly for the food you get onboard but other than that no problems. It’s not a luxurious experience so don’t go into it thinking it wasn’t clean, fancy or spacious enough. You’re on a party boat island hopping and it was just that. Would recommend!!

- Kel, 08/09/2022 16:22, Travelled Solo

Nice ship. Terrible oily cheap food

I m vegetarian and I had a constant monotonous and unhealthy diet of eggs and cheese at each meal of the day. No vegetables, all cheap and badly cooked. To be fair. The ship crew were fine. The guides adequate. The hikes were not interesting bar one trip to a national part. Just uphill to a viewpoint. Every viewpoint and trail looked the same. The other guests were a good and lively bunch. Many felt the same but there was group pressure to say how great everything was.

Poor organisation

The boat was great and loved Croatia, however the problem was with the organisation and poor communication from staff. There were two trainee guides on board as well and they all clashed with each other. We were promised parties in the middle of the sea with a barbecue when in reality we had an early curfew and this didn’t go ahead at all. Early June was off season for most of the clubs so itinerary was not accurate at all. Swim stops were not communicated so I missed some of them. Croatian staff on board (bartender, captain, cook) were great though.

Hi Issy, Thank you for your 5-star review. We are really pleased to hear you enjoyed your time on the boat and had a fabulous time in Croatia. However, we are sorry to hear you were disappointed with some aspects of your cruise. We pride ourselves on having the most knowledgable, friendly and local Representatives. Before the season commences, our Reps go through rigorous training and shadow work, so they are confident prior to their first departure solo. I have checked, and can see that the feedback for the Reps was 4-5 stars. On all our ships we have a midnight curfew which is to ensure those that wish to party on, can do so in the towns - visiting the best local bars and clubs, and those that wish to stay onboard and get an early night, can do so in peace. In early June, most bars and clubs are open to public however, we understand that Covid has caused a slight delay in opening times. Swim stops commence each day and the onboard rep will advise everyone of the daily schedule - I'm sorry to hear you missed some of them. Thank you for your comments on the onboard staff - we will pass this on :-). I'm pleased that overall you enjoyed your time on the boat and in Croatia as a whole.

Had a great time thanks to the crew on board however I was sold a game of thrones cruise and that was not delivered

The crew, the boat, the quality of food was amazing. The itinerary was incredible the tours well planned however I booked a Game of thrones cruise and that was not delivered. The Cruise manager Ivana was awesome and she tried to solve it. But I expected more if you are selling a GOT cruise. Nobody on the boat was aware of this. Not the guests nor the crew.

- Daniela, 29/08/2022 02:31, Travelled Solo

One of the greatest weeks of my life!

I loved every moment of my week on the Nerezine. I has the best group of people that made me as a solo traveller feel welcomed. The crew were also amazing! I did however feel some of the extra add on were not presented to us, for example the canoeing. There were also some issues below deck in my room that I thought were not up to scratch. These include leaking water from the ceiling, out ensuing door not closing and latching. The toilet was an issue as I couldn't use it properly, but I was able to make do. These issue however did not make my time on the boat bad, for me they are just amenities, the people and places you visit is what matter and makes the trip what it is. As I said before it was one of the best weeks of my life and I have you, Sail Croatia and Ioana and crew to thank for that.

- Bradley, 23/08/2022 16:51, Travelled Solo

Great crew and cruise

What a fantastic week through the islands and coastline of Croatia. The people and crew made everything feel like the once in a lifetime trip this deserves to be. Tempted to go on the yacht trip on day once I recover from the craziness of the navigator cruise. Needs a few less Aussies, although maybe that's what made it so good.

- Anonymous, 22/08/2022 18:36, Travelled Solo

Doesn’t live to the hype

The website is extremely hard to navigate. On day 1 of our cruise we were told to get off the boat after the meeting time because it wasn’t ready yet. This kind of disorganisation could have been avoided if you had a later meeting time. The price of excursions and drinks was pretty expensive and the fact that there wasn’t organised shuttles for a lot of stops was quite poor. There was a lot of hidden extras that added up. I definitely should have researched my ship more as it was way too party for me. I liked that breakfast and lunch was included everyday, however we didn’t get a lot of free time at most stops. Whilst I’m glad I did it I wouldn’t be doing another sail again. I think navigator is best suited to under 25 party goers. Also you shouldn’t ask people to review on the last day in front of their tour manager. It’s very awkward and not anonymous.

Hi Kieran, thank you for your review. We are continuously improving our customer experience by ensuring our website is easy to navigate. Check-in time onboard is from 10:30am - 12pm, however please note that your boat may not be ready by this time as mentioned in your pre-departure documentation.

We do advise that dinners, drinks and excursions are at an additional cost so that you can budget for this, we have prices for drinks and excursions available. We're happy to know you enjoyed the inclusions of breakfasts and lunches. However, are sorry to hear this was too party orientated. Our Navigator cruises are aimed at under 39 year old travellers looking for a more party type cruise. Perhaps the Explorer cruise may be a better option as this has a good balance of socialising, relaxing and exploring. We encourage reviews and feedback to be provided privately, in your own words - we will be investigating further, thank you for making us aware.

A week to remember

Sail Croatia put on a great show for me. I really enjoyed the exploration of many islands we were able to see in such a short amount of time. The skippers were lovely and organised a lot of both beautiful sights and fun activities to give us opportunities to both relax and party. There was elements of disorganisation in communication of plans sometimes, and the included breakfast was minimal to say the least. Was also one of the only solo travellers so would have appreciated more mingling activities to be organised. The way the tour was set up made it difficult to meet people from the other boats. In the end, I did make some connections and met some great people. All in all was a great experience and have no regrets.

- Rebecca , 26/07/2022 07:00, Travelled Solo

Great experience but room was unbearably hot

Great experience and people involved! Loved everything that was provided however paid extra to have an ensuite and be on top deck however the heat in my room was unbearable. It was right next to the engine room, the aircon faced away from the bed and didn’t provide any cooling effect. The bathroom was tiny and hot with the shower head facing the toilet. I didn’t sleep in the room at all and slept on the floor down below deck as the air con was much better down there. I would like to be compensated for the extra money I paid for an ensuite as the room was not liveable.

Air-conditioning is not included on our Ensuite ship, however we are pleased to hear your Captain turned this on in the communal areas downstairs free of charge. Having a look at the ratings for this room for previous departures, the feedback given was 5 stars for the previous two departures. I have confirmation from our Onboard Representative that the fan was in working order in your cabin. I would highly recommend our Premier or Premier Plus ship in future as this includes air-conditioning and more cabin space for added comfort. Thank you again for your feedback.

Poorly run; Very disorganised

With a backdrop as beautiful as Croatia its hard to go wrong. Yet, this wasn't smooth sailing. Maybe it was the fact I had such high expectations from the glowing reviews that Sail Croatia gets, but the tour just felt extremely disorganised. We had a very lacklustre tour manager that did very little to hype up the mood and bring the group together. There was also A LOT of wasted time on the boat. SC markets these gorgeous daily swimspots; reality was not this with spots in random locations overlooking roads and deserted housing. We spent 4-5 hours each day anchored in the one spot rather than seeing the actually towns/islands marketed. The tipping point being the 'Day trip' to Mljet. We anchored near Mljet at 9am and didn't port at the park till close to 2pm, where we were then told to be back at the boat by 4pm. This left about an hour to explore! After completing many organised tours in the past, this definitely has turned me of organised tours in the future!

High expectations

The main thing I would change would be the tour guide. He was a very nice person but brought no energy or people skills to the group. Sometimes when we were asking him stuff it was like trying to draw blood from a stone. His answers were always “I don’t know I’ll ask the captain” lucky our group was very independent and we managed to find our own things to do and entertain ourselves. The aircon on the boat was very poor and j was disappointed at the boat crew handing us the review form on their iPad telling us we need to give them a 5 star review and then leaving an envelope in our rooms for tips. I had higher expectations as I heard a lot of good things and but it’s if I wasn’t b a problem

Great trip. I thought I would love drinking every day but I got tired of it quickly and only wanted to focus on the exploration. If you’re looking to party constantly this is a great trip, otherwise if you want to explore just stick to hostels and travel

Highly recommend!!

Ivan, our tour guide and the crew on board were amazing! Ivan's knowledge of his country and the history is superb, matched by his friendly nature. It was such a great opportunity to visit multiple places in style and make new friends along the way. The week was quite busy but you get to pick and choose what you want to do each day. I recommend staying an extra day in Dubrovnik to ensure you have enough time for activities and exploring. My lower deck room could become quite cold and the rooms don't have great ventilation for drying items, so pack more than recommended on the website. I'd do it all over again, thank you Sail Croatia!

Excellent

The Almissa was immaculate, cabins were basic but extremely comfortable with a superb shower. All the staff worked hard and long hours including the tour managers. They were always polite well mannerd but also fun. We had daily informative briefings about our next stop and the captain always managed to find the most beautiful swim stops in the morning. We were well fed at breakfast and dinner time, breakfast was a buffet, lunch was 3 courses and we experienced some super delicious dishes.. There was always someone at hand to answer any queries either on the ship or off the ship via a wassap group. All in all i 100% enjoyed this cruise and would do it again in a heartbeat. I went as a solo female traveller of 53 which i was very nervous about to begin with but all my fears were soon put to rest, there was a varied range of ages and everybody just got on with everyone. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Seabream

Explorer/Excursions: was disappointed by the lack of excursions and exploring on the explorer cruise. On board we did a lot of relaxing and cruising so I anticipated action packed land adventures. This trip fell flat. The 1 to 2 excursion I did I really enjoyed. Hora wine tasting (great local place with the sweetest donkeys) and biking in Mljet Meals: I am a pescatarian (no meat, only seafood). I was served seabream-4-5 lunches in a row. I mentioned to the guide I'd like more variety, the next lunch I again received seabream. After that I mentioned to the head crew member I'd like to eat something other than seabream. Then I finally I had a change to tuna. The next meal seabass. The guide also had dietary restrictions and made a huge fuss in front of our entire table when given something she didn't eat. My final meal aboard was back to seabream with a side of peppers; meanwhile the guide had a overwhelming portion of gnocchi and peppers.

Solo travler from Ontario Canada

Right from the beginning enquiring about the trip, Sail Croatia office staff (Cayley and Aly) were great, followed up and I have to say, it was the follow up email made me move forward and book. I was encouraged to take the trip because of the option of a 'solo' traveller and get matched up with like kind traveller. Unfortunately there was no other solo travller booked but Matio, (our guide) immediately seeing my disappointment at check in, said to me that he has never seen anyone left out and assured me it will be fine. Matio was correct, and I had a great time, lots of laughter and cold beverages too. Although there was lots of land time at each of the stops, I think it would have ben fun to have other option to have entertainment on board. I would rate the trip 3.5 out of 5.

Hi Susan, Thank you so much for your review. We are pleased to know that from your initial enquiry with Cayley and Aly, right up to stepping on our cruise, the service was seamless and professional, and that our follow up email encouraged you to book! Being a solo traveller, we understand that joining a cruise full of new people can be somewhat daunting, but this was all laid to rest with our rep Extraordinaire Mateo! We're so happy to hear you had a great time and we appreciate your comments of more entertainment onboard, we take this onboard, thank you!

Not what I expected

I came on Sail Croatia alone which was fine since I met tons of nice new friends on the cruise. My issue was with our guide. He was very unenthusiastic the whole time, made sexist comments, and generally made me feel uncomfortable as a solo passenger by making rude comments. I have good things to say about the boat, the captain, and his crew as the boat was always in good condition, and we safely got everywhere we were going, however the bartender was another story. Although he freepoured the drinks, he was unpredictible in his attitude, sometimes being happy and friendly, and sometimes getting angry with passengers for ordering certain drinks or ordering lots of drinks. This made me feel uncomfortable going to the bar to order drinks. Finally, since the whole crew was male and our guide was male, I felt disadvantaged on the boat as a solo woman, since they were all more friendly with the male passengers. Overall, a more friendly, enthusiastic guide would have improved my experience.

Hi there and thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the company of your fellow travellers and found the captain and crew helpful, and boat to be in good condition, thank you. I can see that we had 20 females and 16 males onboard your cruise, with 5 solo travellers. We are family owned and each of the ships we work with are also family-owned and operated. Together we make up Sail Croatia. Although our Reps are employed and trained by Sail Croatia, our ships and their captains are in charge of employing their own crew, ensuring their staff maintain a high level of service throughout the cruise. We are disappointed to read your comments regarding the guide and bartender. We have passed these comments on to the appropriate departments to provide further support and training where required. We are sorry to hear you felt uncomfortable, we encourage guests to notify our Operations Manager for any issues that may arise onboard so that we can resolve them immediately. We hope that overall, you enjoyed most aspects of your cruise and Croatia as a whole. Thank you.

Croatia

Hello, Great trip with great people. Weather meant weren’t able to do everything but was still great fun. I understand it was the end of the season but I feel Ela could have done a better job of making sure everyone was informed and involved in the week. Communication wasn’t great and I really felt there was a missed opportunity to bring everyone together and create a real family atmosphere. Crew were awesome and worked really hard to ensure we were having a good time. Were a couple of incidence with things going missing and finding loose clothes in the crew cabin. Overall a great experience but feel with a little bit of extra effort it would have gone a long way I’m creating a truly unforgettable experience. Cheers,

In comparison

The boat. Outdated, cramped, badly ventilated in the downstairs cabin. Cupboard space inadequate for two people as there was no shelving. Dining room space just coped. Crockery inadequate with just one cup per person and some had chips out. Insufficient glasses for morning juice. Breakfast was a race as there limited yogurts, fruit drinks, poor choice of cereal, very poor coffee, real milk not always available. Main leader was disorganised speaking before all holiday members were there so it became. Chinese’s whispers to find information. Meeting times announced were not kept to by leader and he would start early. Boat left port before announced times. I could go on.

AMAZING Experience! Behind the scenes not so much

First of all, the sail week it’s self was fantastic! Ivana and the entire boat crew went constantly above and beyond to cater and help us with everything we ever needed! I was seriously impressed with their professionalism at all times! Ivana in particular was just the most amazing tour guide I’ve ever had! There were some major issues in errors made with my booking that were only noticed a few months out which really put a damper on the experience. The solutions they came to were satisfactory however the bus they booked me to get to Dubrovnik arrived after the lunch and welcome speech which was really disappointing as I missed the introduction aspect to the first day.

Ana and the crew were so friendly and welcoming. As a solo traveller I was a bit nervous about how I would fit in but there was no need to worry. Ana and the crew couldn’t have been more inclusive. My fellow passengers were fantastic and we all gelled together quickly, enjoying all the islands had to offer in one another’s company. I have had a brilliant time, laughed a lot and eaten fabulous meals on board all against a backdrop of stunningly beautiful scenery. I can’t recommend Sail Croatia enough for a fabulous holiday.

Awesome week

Our tour leader Lamija was amazing. She was so helpful especially when any slight problems arose and we all felt like we could go to her for anything. So lucky to have her for my week on Sail! As for the boat, I'd strongly recommend paying extra for a nicer one. Our boat was not in the best condition. Overall I had a really great week on Sail Croatia!

Poor assigning of ages to boat and number ratio

Was not happy with my sail. I was the oldest on my boat I was solo also which is fine. But the oldest boy was 21. Majority were 18-20 year olds. I made friends on another boat Vosica. I wish I was on that boat. Was a bigger boat with people my age doing the same route. Was very dissapointed a shame you couldn’t have put other solo travellers of similar age on the same boat.

Thank you for your review. We try to get a good mix on all our boats, taking into consideration a number of factors such as; age, nationality, gender as well as solo travellers, groups and couples to name a few. Having a look at who booked on your boat, we had 6 travellers of similar ages to you. In saying this our travellers are within the 18-35 years age range, the makeup of each boat heavily relys on who has booked. We hope that this didn't detract from your overall experience in Croatia as a whole.

Sailing with Tuna

The whole Tuna crew was great! Eoin, Marco and chef Marco really made the trip. Also had a great group sailing as well! I would recommend, however, to bring a freind or two, especially if you do not get your own room. Also recomend doing all the activites!

Sail Croatia review

Before booking my tour I asked to be put in a boat with solo travellers, as I myself was travelling solo and they said it would not be a problem. To my surprise I got put in a boat with couples and and people who knew each other. Careful going on the smaller boat because you might be stuck with people who are close and will be hard to make friends.

Hi there. Many thanks for your review. I'm sorry to hear of your disappointment of the tour. I have looked through previous correspondence and can see you were advised we only had availability on our Under 35s Yacht Tours for your requested departure date, so we did not have any other options available for you at the time, I'm afraid. Our Under 35s Yacht Tours consist of a group of usually 6 to 8 yachts sleeping 8 passengers on each sailing together in a flotilla, so it usually a very social experience. I checked and can see your departure had 47 guests across 6 yachts to enjoy the social experience on board. Thank you for joining us this season :)

Well structured but crazy party boat

Don’t feel obliged to drink and interact if you don’t want to! It gets quite exhausting as you are swimming and exploring different islands every day. Lovely swim spots, great lunches and very average alcohol. Thanks for an awesome week, definitely need some rest after this week!

Great boat, amazing aircon. Daniel our tour guide knew all the good spots and gave great tips. Accommodated to my vegan diet well although I would’ve liked to have seen more for breakfast.

Incredible Experience

My Sail Croatia experience was incredible and I would highly recommend the brand to friends and family. The route was well designed for rest days and nights. During nights out I felt very safe at the bars we were taken to. I was extremely impressed with the size of the room and the en-suite. However, the towel provided was an old beach towel which I believe a previous guest had left on board. As well that bathrooms bins and toilet paper should be regularly maintenance. The breakfast and lunch on board was amazing and the crew made sufficient effort to accomodate peoples needs. The paid BBQ on board was overly priced and didn’t meet myself or other guests expectations.Zac did a wonderful job on his first tour particularly ensuring the group felt safe and was having fun. He made a very conscious effort in making sure the entire group got along. As a solo traveller this was particularly welcoming.He consistently asked for feedback and would action any concerns or issues promptly.

Fantastic crew, disappointing company.

I would like to send an email to fully explain my thoughts, however there were a number of events that detracted from my experience. Please note that the crew Bruno, Boris, Hichela, Marko, Karlo and Mate were fantastic in their efforts to solve the issues, and were extremely professional and dedicated to their jobs. When Mate injured his foot, the remainder of the crew were forced to cook, meaning the food quality decreased slightly (not their fault - they’re not chefs) and they couldn’t focus on their primary role. I was disappointed that Sail Croatia did not send a replacement chef or waitress to help. Secondly was a power issue cause by operator error, but again, I saw this as Sail Croatia’s mistake in not correctly training their crews or familiarising them with the ship. I still had a fantastic week (because of the crew and locations) but was disappointed with the lack of support from your company. Our crew were fantastic, but your company could use some improvement.

Thank you for your review and your email with additional comments, this is appreciated. We are pleased to hear that the crew and your representative were fantastic with their efforts and were professional at all times. However, we are sorry to hear of your disappointment with some aspects. I have spoken with the representative Boris and he has confirmed that on day 3 of your cruise, chef Mate was unable to continue his role as head chef due to injuries. Given that it was such short notice, the captain was unable to obtain a chef replacement. However, the Captain then stepped in to resume this role with the chef assisting with the food preparation for the remainder of the cruise. I've had a look at the issues regarding the generator onboard and can see that this has been recorded via our internal records. I understand that the generator was down for 24 hours and that all guests received a free BBQ onboard due to this human error made by one of the crew, which has been followed up. We hope that these issues didn't detract from your overall experience, and we thank you again for bringing this to our attention via email, so that we could address them directly with you.

A fun week but room for improvement

Firstly i have to say i had a great week doing Split to Dubrovnik. The boat we sailed on was beautiful and exceeded my expectations. I do have to say how great our waiters were (Alena & Tommy) who brought a lot of fun and laughs however the chef and food could have been improved a lot. I know a lot of people on board were rather dissapointed by this. It would have also been nice to have a small thank you speech or something from our Sail Croatia tour manager instead we got nothing the morning of our departure which was rather odd and a bit disappointing after we spent a week together. We had a group of 40 people and i could not have asked for a better group of people to sail with.. Some people wanted to party every night while others wanted to take it a bit easy however everyone all got along great which was so awesome to see.

Had an enjoyable time on this cruise.

Great way to see some of Croatia

I really enjoyed the Hiking cruise. The hikes are beautiful (but weather dependent). Most hikes were only 2.5-3 hours and be prepared to spend quite a lot of time sailing between islands. I would recommend the trip for solo travelers, whatever age. Our group had a spread of ages from early 20s to 60s.

Sail Croatia August 2018

The cruise was fun, met some great new people. My only complaint would be the food. As a vegetarian the food on the boat was not good. The first day was alright but on the 2nd night I recurved a plate of half boiled vegetables that had been covered in oil. Being hungry made enjoying the cruise to its full potential difficult. The boat team did their best to rectify after a complaint was made. However, it should have been thought about prior, in an age were there are quite a few vegetarians and making vegetarian food is not difficult a menu that is appropriate should be considered Other than that the staff were lovely the rooms were average the parties were fun, Croatia is gorgeous. Would definitely go back!

Fantastic Boat and Crew

The boat and crew were fantastic, but unfortunately I was quite disappointed with the age group of travellers on board. There were a large number of older travellers when I was hoping to mix and mingle with travellers around the same age in the 20-40 age group. The trip is marked for couples, young professionals, young at heart. Unfortunately there were too many 'young at heart' and couples on board for my liking. I would recommend doing a Navigator cruise instead with a Premier boat. On the plus side our guide Ivana was amazing and we had a Sail Croatia photographer with us for the week (still waiting for the pictures though which are overdue),

Navigator North

Went on the Navigator North trip with the Tarin boat. We had no overnight power for 2-3 days when docked in port, therefore our fans in the room did not work in the intense heat, People resorted to sleeping on the roof as the cabins were unbearably hot. We also couldn't charge our mobile phones in order to take pictures the next day, set alarms, etc. Our water dispenser was taken off the boat a day before the cruise ended because the boat was going to be used by another company the following day. The whole boat vibrated when moving, making sleep in the morning extremely difficult. Eggs were not provided for breakfast every day. In fact the were on a random scheduled according to how the chef felt. One day I woke up for breakfast only to be told the eggs had already finished.. The next day I woke up earlier and was told eggs were only made every second day and not daily. On the plus side we did visit some pretty cool places and met some amazing people. Tarin and Ivanna were great!

Fantastic experience from booking (with no single person suppliment), to the staff involved in the boat and guides. Super affordable when taking into the fact you have accommodation for 7 nights and 2 meals a day, let alone the hikes.

Friendly crew and comfortable trip but buyer beware

Travelling solo in mid-Sep 2017 on the return Split route on Premier Plus. Pros: Friendly crew and fellow passengers, great food (3-course lunches everyday), comfortable bedrooms with daily housekeeping service, Nice sunbathing area when the weather is good and swim stops. Also it's great to be able to explore the different places in Croatia without lugging around your luggage! Cons: We were very reliant on the weather - when the weather is bad, there is nothing you can do on the boat other than catching up on your books, napping etc. Also, my biggest sore point is we spent way too long on the boat vs on land. For example we only had one afternoon and the evening in Dubrovnik (leaving first thing the next morning!), one of the biggest attraction of Croatia! That is definitely not enough and I wonder how the schedules were arranged. All in all, lovely trip but not for those who really want to explore each place.

Hi there and thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the crew and fellow passengers, the food onboard, the clean and comfortable bedrooms, the sunbathing area and the convenience of exploring each island without carrying around luggage. We are sorry to hear you experienced some bad weather whilst on the cruise. In regards to the daily schedule, generally speaking, our ships set sail early in the morning from each destintation, you have a swim stop and lunch onboard and then dock in to the next destination where you are free to explore. At times, ships can be restricted due to port authorities as captains would need to wait until they are given permission to dock. We aim to get all our boats docked as early as we can, however at times, this is not possible. It's great to know you enjoyed the trip overall and we thank you again for sharing your experience with us.

Split to Split return

The team on board was amazing but compared to other companies and tours I have done (like Contiki) it wasn't quite as organised or factual. If I were to sail around Croatia again I would opt to go with Contiki

Beautiful Croatia

I have been on several cycling holidays but what attracted me to this one was the combination of cycling and sailing. Everywhere you went in Croatia there were stunning views and although the cycling was quite challenging at times it was well worth it to see yet more stunning views at the top of a climb. The guides were great fun and the staff on board were fantastic. Food was 1st class and the remaining cyclists were a great bunch. If I was to make one criticism, and I am reluctant to do so it would be that the organisation of the rides could have been better. I felt that there should have been three staff on each ride one at the front.who nobody should pass,one in the middle to wait by junctions to show people which way to go and one at the back to bring in the taill enders. This is no reflection on the tour leaders who were all excellent. I would certainly recommend this trip to anyone and I intend doing the Southern Route next year, Thanks for a fabulous holiday.

Spending a week with 40 awesome people and a fantastic tour guide (Mario) & crew was the best! Unfortunately a few (including myself) got quite sick while away, but these things happen and I tried not to let it deter me from the crazy awesomeness that is Sail Croatia!

I had a blast! Tons of new experiences and jumping out of my comfort zone! The best: Cetina river canyoning!! I am not a party animal, and Navigator cruises are for those who want to party every night! I would recommend SaiCroatia a thousand times!

August cruise

Almisa Blu crew and rep were awesome! Professional and helpful all the time. They were approachable and gave a lot of local knowledge. We had a great group of travellers which generated really good atmosphere.

Relaxation and adventure

What a fantastic experience, a great mix of adventure and total relaxation. Our guide Petar was exceptional, so friendly and knowledgeable.

Navigator on Naval with the fabulous Aleks!

Overall my week on the Naval for Sail Croatia was an amazing experience. From the gorgeous sights and scenery to the fun nights out, it was a trip to remember. However, I think the Naval crew could all agree that our trip was made exceptional by being lucky enough to have Aleks as our guide. What a lovely, caring and absolutely fun and hilarious person. I cannot recommend Aleks highly enough and hope that the Sail Croatia team value this gem! Thanks for a wicked week Aleks! X Also a huge thanks to Izak, Big Mumma, Mario and the skippers for everything!

Sail Croatia

The food made by the chef was brilliant and varied every day. The air conditioning was so powerful in our rooms that it made sleeping in them so easy and satisfying. Some of the optional excursions were well run and an enjoyable experience (particularly the zip wiring and the buggies)

Small cruise was a great way to meet new people. Cameraderie was excellent. Guides were wonderful people, super friendly. And why not?

Sail Croatia Navigator Cruise

We were SUPER lucky on our sail to have a fantastic host Ivana, being a local herself ment for our group that we could trust we were in the best hands at each destination. Ivana was always a step ahead of us making sure we were happy and comfortable, she was quite literaly the glue that held us together. At times she may have felt a little in over her head, but she kept her cool in every situation, she never gave up on us and in the end with her patience and understanding, bought us closer together as a family, We put her through a lot during our week sail and for that she deserves gold medal And our crew ofcourse were also fantastic! super friendly, always having a joke with us, and there was not a single time where someone wasnt around when we needed help, thankyou all for the laughs and the good times. Also a big thumbs up to our chef onboard, the food was always delicious, there wasnt a single meal I did not finish. Big loves to you all, Sail Croatia you have stolen my heart ❤

Hi there and thank you for your review! We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your cruise overall. Thank you for your kind comments on your host Ivana - we are happy that you were well looked after by her and the entire crew. All your comments regarding Ivana, the crew and chef will be passed on to them via our Operations Manager, as we are sure they will enjoy the read. We hope to have you join us again!

Amazing against all odds.

The cruise was poorly planned in regards to ratios for solo travellers. All dudes and all in a group already leaves little for a solo traveller to appreciate. Having said that the crew made the trip. With particular mention to Georgia. Her commitment to people on the ship (not appreciated by all) created an experience that redeemed sail croatia in my eyes. Her work and professionalism is the only reason I would recommend Sail Croatia to my mates travelling in groups. Great week but not without the hard work of the rep and the crew.

- Anonymous, 24/07/2017 14:21, Travelled Solo

Can rock it solo

Explorer option will sail croatia was great! Able to make friends easily as it wasn't party party party all the time like other boats. Had a great time and probably still drank too much but never missed breakfast which is a good sign. Was disappointed that our original boat was not finished in time and we got downgraded and after seeing the model we were meant be on at one of the dock was disappointed in the amount refunded as there was a significant difference in boats. However, the staff we had on Almissa were absolutely amazing!!!! Ana, Ivan, Parvo and the team made sure we had a great time and we were given all the knowledge of local spots to go with some fantastic history thrown in. Would definitely do it again!

- Anonymous, 24/07/2017 10:12, Travelled Solo

Awesome

The passengers and crew were all really great. They were knowledgable about all the places and keen to have a good time with us. Sailing the coast was the most beautiful way to see Croatia and I do not regret it.

- Eloise, 24/07/2017 10:10, Travelled Solo

Such a treasure

The best part of this trip is definitely the places that we went to that made my experience so rememberable. I did everything that I wanted to do out of this trip. Dubrovnik, Korcula, Mljet, Hvar, such beautiful places to see and to explore. I will definitely book another cruise like this in the future to revisit these places again.

- Anthony Dabor, 26/06/2017 06:48, Travelled Solo

Nav 10th

The crew where fantastic! I loved everything about it was one of the funniest weeks of my life to date. The boat was a little rough could definitely use some doing up, showers , beds ect but another then that. Maja did a wonderful job, by far the best tour leader I have ever had! Our whole group where so suited and all got along so well, maybe that was a fluke. Thanks for a fantastic week ! X

Good experience, could have been much better

Booking process should show availability. You select a cruise that you want and it shows as available only to get an email shortly after that that boat/cabin is not available. I booked late, under the impression that there were heaps of spots remaining as the website said so only to end up in the worst room on the worst boat. No big deal in the end but annoying. Zero attempt by Sail staff to get everyone introduced together. Unfortunate weather meant we had to divert first night, no ones fault. Swim stops were few and far between, other ships seemed to have a lot more in better locations. missed the second last stop because of weather and went straight to dubrovnik. Weather was blue skies and no wind, I heard its because the boats don\'t want to pay docking fees. Staff very friendly. Food was actually good on boat, recommended restaurants were awful. Drinks wayyy to expensive, should be on par with mainland $5 AUD for a beer is a bit much for young people. Still fun.

Hi there, thank you for your review regarding your Navigator Split to Dubrovnik cruise.It is great to hear that you found the crew friendly, you enjoyed the food on-board and that you had fun on your cruise. In regards to availability of our cruises, our prices don't reflect availability and this is noted under the pricing grid for each cruise. We prefer to speak with our customers and we feel by doing so, adds value to their experience with us, and enables us to assist them in finding the best suited cruise for them. In the case of bad weather, or even the chance of bad weather, the Captain may have to alter the itinerary and will visit a different island and port, to ensure the guests are safe yet still get to experience Croatia. I can assure you this has nothing to do with avoiding port fees as pricing is similar at all ports. At the time of docking, the weather may seem to be perfect however, in the early hours this can change drastically and the captain will be aware of this hours in advance. In ports such as Hvar where it is quite open and susceptible to rocky seas if a storm strikes the captain may decide to dock at Stari Grad where the port is fully protected. As the boats will be docked for around 12 hours, for the safety of our guests he will decide to dock at the safest port possible that offers the most protection from stormy weather. In regards to the swim stops, when possible, the Captain will stop to give guests a chance to swim, however this depends on the weather and the scheduling of the ship. I am sorry that this wasn't communicated clearly to you when on-board. In regards to the drinks prices, these do vary and range from 1.96EUR ($2.60AUD) to 2.60EUR ($3.50AUD). Thank you again for taking the timing to let us know about your experience.

Wonderful

The ship was absolutely amazing and the destinations were awesome!!!

- Beverly, 08/09/2016 05:02, Travelled Solo

Summer, sun, sailing, and a lot of shots - why not!

I had a fantastic week on Sail croatia! It was great as a solo traveller as I made many new friends. The week went way too fast and I would have like to see more of the islands, but for a first trip it was fab! The staff on our boat were wonderful and the only reason I have given it 4 not 5 stars is because of the facilities on the boat which could have been a little bit better. Otherwise I highly recommend!

Great week!

The crew onboard Tarin were AMAZING! Food was fantastic and each stop- both swimming and overnight- was beautiful too! Ziplining and wine tasting tours were great as well!

Cruise Croatia

As a solo traveler you never know what kind of experience you will have or people you will meet. My fellow passengers were welcome and inviting, they made it easy for a solo traveller to fit in! The cruise exceeded my expectations in terms of cabins and food, it was very high end for the price. I do wish that breakfast was later, it was hard to get up some mornings to make breakfast but if you did not make it, you waited until 1 for lunch. A midmorning snake would have been great! I know ports had restrictions on times we could dock, I wouldh have liked however either water taxis for those that wanted to go earlier or onboard activites to help pass the time, their was a lot of down time and swim stops. I know that is what you do on a cruise but for me, I would\'ve liked more time on shore. I will definately recommend Sail Croatia to solo travelers and friends as an unforgettable experience, I hope to join you again one day for another Croatian adventure! Shout out to the crew, amazing!!

- Beth, 26/08/2016 04:48, Travelled Solo

Awsome time

The boat cabin (tvrdi) was cramped and stifling hot, the beer on the boat was a little more expensive than expected, but it was all worth it for one hell of a time! 38 people who all had one thing in common. They wanted to make memories (and lose some). If it's a party you want the navigator cruise is your choice. DEEP CLUB, HULA HULA, CARPE DIEM AND BOOGIE JUNGLE are the nights to be excited for. Stay AWAY from revelling in dubrovnik.

- Martyn, 22/08/2016 03:44, Travelled Solo

Party boat

This tour is definitely suited to people who just want to party. I didn't know a lot about Sail Croatia before I went on this tour so I was surprised that it was just all Aussie's and Kiwi's. The food was pretty terrible. We had to skip 2 islands because of the weather. I didn't like how we had multiple tour managers, it would have been nice to have one for the entire trip. But apart from that I met a lot of cool people and got to see the spectacular islands.

Hi there, thank you for your review. It is great to hear you met a lot of cool people and enjoyed the islands. Our Navigator cruises are designed for 18-35 year olds looking to socialise with more of a party-type atmosphere. We try our best to ensure our website is clear to guests about the experience of each cruise, and we are happy to assist if anyone is unsure of which cruise to choose. We also have an online cruise assessment which you can use to find out which cruise is best suited to you. Our cruises are very popular with New Zealanders and Australians as well as various different countries, and where possible we do try to ensure an even mix of travellers onboard our boats taking into consideration ages, nationalities and genders, however this heavily depends no who has booked. Your comments about food will be looked into so we can improve this for the future. With regards to you having multiple Sail Croatia Representatives, this is something that we are currently assessing.

Navigator cruise

The room that I got was on the ensuite boat downstairs. Unbearable. Was so so hot down there, get no breeze through the hallway door, and when I opened the outside window a wave came in soaking my bed and ruining my phone. If your going to have rooms like this you need to make sure that the aircon on the boat works and if it doesn't work, get it fixed. I got really sick from this week due to lack of sleep and sleep in a saltwater soaked bed. Food was good, crew was good, activity options were good

Hi there and thanks for your feedback. We are pleased to hear the food on-board was good as well as the optional activities and crew - we will pass your comments on to them. In regards to the Lower Deck cabins, at times the rooms can become hotter during peak months. We advise, when safe, to open your port hole for ventilation whilst you are in your cabin to let air-flow through. As you booked an Ensuite Lower Deck cabin, we provide a fan in each of our Ensuite cabins as air-conditioning is not included on this boat type, (it is included on our Premier and Premier Plus boats). We are sorry to hear about the soaked bed. We have rigorous procedures in place for any issues that arise on-board our cruises, which is included in the pre-departure information emailed to you before the cruise and is outlined at the welcome speech. The first step is to communicate with the crew. If this does not resolve the issue, the second step is to contact our representative in which case we log this in our central reporting and manage the issue onboard until it is fully resolved and customers are happy. We also supply the contact details for our Operations Manager and Managing Director in the unlikely event you are disatisfied with any response from our team members. This procedure does then give us the opportunity to resolve an issue during the trip and follow up or check historical issues.I have searched our records and cannot see that you had reported this to a member of staff. Had this been reported, we would have rectified the bedding situation immediately. We are happy that you had a good trip overall and thank you for providing feedback.

Totally recommend!

When I first walked onto the boat and checked out our cabins, I literally thought I'd hit the jackpot. Was so super stoked with the size of the rooms and the cruiser in general! The whole trip is chilled but we had a few fun party nights and there are activities/ excursions to do each day which cost but worth it if it's something you like. I did the wine tasting and it was so nice :) I highly recommend the Wednesday departure from split to split as you are on a different route to the navigator boats. The food was also way above my expectations. Maya (our host) was amazing and knowledgable and came out for drinks a few nights too. The sail Croatia recommendations for restaurants/ bars etc are not the best, so I would do your own research rather than skimp out for small discounts/ free dessert etc. Age ranges from mid twenties to sixties also, which made things really fun!

- Lucy, 07/08/2016 17:52, Travelled Solo

Sail Croatia - fun time

Had a great time, however, the ratio of girls to guys was way too unbalanced on our boat, we were 28 girls and 5 guys, where 14 of those girls came as a group and kept to themselves most of the time. This limited group socialising. And then hearing about other boats who were having so much more fun as their group socialised more. Was a great cruise, make some cool friends nonetheless.

Thank you for your feedback on our Navigator Dubrovnik to Split cruise. It's great to hear you had a good time on this cruise and made some new friends. We always aim to get a good balance on-board all our boats taking into consideration age, gender, nationality, group makeup - friends, solo travellers and couples. However, at times this is not possible as it heavily depends on who has booked what boat. We would like all our guests to socialise with other groups on-board, but it is down to the individual. In saying this, we had several boats on this route which hopefully provided you with a more sociable atmosphere in being able to mingle with travellers from other boats. Thanks again for your feedback.

Great week but room for improvement

I had a great week but there was certainly room for improvement. In the pros, I booked the most expensive boat of the fleet and it did not disappoint. It was large, clean, and the rooms were pretty spacious! Areas for improvement were - the price of 'happy hour' drinks (they are more expensive then most bars in tourist areas), the attitude of some staff members was petty unprofessional and a few of the excursions were expensive and over-rated. Easy things to fix - and overall, a great week:) would recommend

- Danika, 01/08/2016 06:18, Travelled Solo

The Great Coastal Getaway

Travelling Solo was a great way to experience this Sail week. Met so many new friends and all the staff were amazing on board, always wanted us to have a good time and would met our needs on any situation. Great to see so many areas of Croatia and were well informed on each spot we docked up. It is a trip you make what you make of it so a positive vibe and the willingness to try something new at every opportunity will see an epic week had and shared with others. Cant recommend it enough, but would do it again in a heart beat

Fantastic cycling across beautiful islands

The routes were beautiful and being so well led made them very relaxing. I felt a sense of accomplishment when I had finished because there was a lot of climbing. Our guides Miranda and Ana were so lovely and friendly they made it great fun and created a happy at,osphere together. I particularly enjoyed the company because I came on my own and that worked out very well. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was the food. It was not good. More fresh produce would have been better particularly local fish. The food was never hot, sometimes downright cold. The lasagne was dry, cold and tasteless. One day the salad was just pickles not fresh stuff. Sometimes the bread was dry. The desserts we sometimes made wIth packet mixes. There was an issue with the fridge - it would not stay closed - the people in the cabin next to it were constantly woken by it beeping. One day the yoghurts were frozen, another warm. This is a food safety issue! The coffee machine did not work so no coffee

- Mary, 13/06/2016 05:40, Travelled Solo

Great holiday

After touring around parts of Europe for 4 weeks, we needed a rest, so glad we chose Sail Croatia. Not only was it relaxing but we got to see a lot of Croatia's coastline and islands. We had a lovely host Ivana who was very knowledgeable and was always there if there were any questions., we had several swim stops and plenty of time to explore the islands. Breakfast and lunch were included and the cabins were comfortable, only thing I wish we'd had an above deck cabin., not a lower deck cabin. Apart from that we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend Sail Croatia as a holiday getaway.
