Wonderful! Improvement must be considered for highly excessive noise level in dining room. Requires acoustical treatment. Disappointing that meals were not served on outside tables! Missing towel bars or hooks to dry swimwear in rooms. Consider reducing swimming frequency for additional dock time at additional locations such as Havar & Split. All staff were very helpful, considerate and friendly!! Beautiful Ship!!!

The trip was excellent- they know how to make it the best! Wines of Croatia was more than expected with great variety and really good wine ! Every detail was taken care of! Klara was an awesome tour guide and always left things optional if anyone wanted to skip a tour for some down time. The history she shared when updating us with daily plans added to each tour! Daily swim stops were the best and freshened us up for lunch and another winery before dinner on the town or at a winery. The Captains dinner was a special treat! The deck hands were always keeping an eye on safety of everyone at swim stops and Mio and Evo serving up breakfast lunch and drinks were attentive and fun ! Highly recommend Sail Croatia and we will return for more!

We had the most amazing time with Sail Croatia aboard a luxury Katarina yacht. The entire trip was pure perfection from the time we checked in to the time we checked out. Our sail Croatia rep - Vicko - was a gold mine of knowledge, suggestions, ideas and plans. Vicko was vital to the success of the entire trip - professional, knowledgeable, fun, great sense of humor and foremost super flexible and accommodating. He is a true gem for Sail Croatia. Our boat and incredible crew led by captain Ivan was exceptional in every aspect. The boat was spotless clean, the cabins were spacious, comfortable and impeccable. The crew was there to support our every request and the food was very scrumptious every time! Cannot wait to be back and Sail Croatia again!!!

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Sail Croatia! From beginning to end, everything was so well organized, and the entire crew and staff were incredibly friendly, kind, and welcoming. A special shout-out to Vicko, our Sail Croatia guide, who truly made the trip exceptional. He was always available, incredibly knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible experience. Whether we needed information about where we were going, restaurant recommendations and reservations, help arranging activities, or pretty much anything else we could think of, Vicko was there to make it happen. He genuinely seemed committed to fulfilling every request and making the trip effortless for us. The food on board was also excellent — fresh, delicious, and something we looked forward to every day. Between the beautiful destinations, wonderful crew, great food, and outstanding service, this was such a memorable trip. We had an incredible time and would absolutely sail with

We enjoyed exploring Croatia and meeting new friends on our sale Croatia cruise. Each day started with a relaxing morning on board and ended with a beautiful new island to explore at our own pace. Highly recommend!

My husband and I travelled with friends. We spent 2 weeks travelling Croatia before boarding the Olimp. On the positive, the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was very good and plentiful. The ship was very clean and the rooms and beds comfortable and spacious for a ship cabin. They were cleaned daily. The excursions were very interesting and enjoyable as were the guided tours. Suggestions would be to allow people to have meals in different areas as the dining room was very noisy: or reduce the # of travellers. Since mornings were spent on the ship, allow for a longer period to eat, say 8 to 10-11. The lunch menu was plentiful and could have been served for dinner instead with 2-3 off ship dinners. More time in some destinations would have been nice. Otherwise overall we loved the experience and would recommend Sail Croatia.

A wonderful relaxing cruise on a fantastic boat and in beautiful surroundings. The food was delicious - the only small criticism I have is that there was too much puréed vegetables. It would have been nice to bite into something. I also would have preferred a cool pool on deck instead of a hot tub. I never used this as the weather was great and so why would I want to get even hotter in a hot tub? The crew were fantastic, very friendly and so hard working. All in all it was a fabulous holiday

The ship is very lovely. The mattress a bit soft for my liking and only 1 pillow is provided, which is silly. The company says it provides one beach towel and one bath towel. It also provides one face towel. What it does not say is that they changed your bath and face towel twice during the cruise. They never change your beach towel, and they don’t dry. It’s pretty gross. Beach towels should also be cleaned once or so per week. We use them every day. The daily itinerary should be reversed. We should go out on the islands in the morning and see the sites and have excursions, and come back to the ship in the afternoon for swimming and relaxing. The lunches are big and heavy, and are better suited for dinners. We could have lunch on our own on the island and dinner on the ship. The staff is amazing Truly helpful and accommodating. Coffee/tea/softdrinks should be included in the overall pricing. I would rather you charge a little bit more upfront and include those things

We recently traveled on a Sail Croatia Elegance Cruise aboard the luxury vessel Katarina from Split to Dubrovnik in late September/early October. The onboard experience exceeded our expectations. The food was exceptional—fresh, delicious & high quality. The drinks, boat, staff, captain, crew & our Sail Croatia guide were phenomenal & went above & beyond. Our only disappointment was Sail Croatia’s back-office itinerary planning. We spent an afternoon & evening in Vela Luka, only to find the town essentially closed for the season. Restaurants & businesses were closed, there was little to do & no taxis or boats were available to reach nearby beaches. For a luxury cruise, seasonal closures should be considered when planning late-season itineraries. Another stop or extra time in Dubrovnik would have been a much better option. Katarina & the onboard experience were exceptional. We only wish the itinerary had matched the same high standard.

Thank you for your lovely comments about Katarina and our onboard team! We're delighted to hear that the food, vessel, Captain, crew and your Sail Croatia Representative exceeded your expectations. We're sorry that you found Vela Luka quieter than anticipated. Vela Luka is a scheduled part of our Elegance itinerary and, while local businesses and services operate independently and may vary throughout the season, a number of options were available during the stop, including a wine tasting excursion, visiting Vela Spila and arrangements for guests wishing to visit nearby Proizd. The Captain's Dinner was also held onboard that evening. We really appreciate your feedback regarding the late-season itinerary and have shared your comments with our Operations Team for consideration. Most importantly, we're so pleased that you had such an exceptional experience aboard Katarina, and we hope to welcome you back to Croatia in the future!
Our first cruise ever and it was fantastic. Vico and the staff were incredible from start to finish. I am recommending this trip to all my friends.

We were on the Katarina 7 day Sail Croatia cruise. It was extremely organized, had wonderful food and service, amazing attentive staff and a very competent captain. I think I am ruined from doing any large cruise ship vacations from now on! The cabins were well cared for and cleaned daily, the water was hot in the showers. The staff was attentive to any food aversions or allergies. The service felt very personalized as if they knew who each of us were and which cabin we were in. We got to know the other passengers well and it was enjoyable sharing meals and sailing time with them. I would highly recommend this to anyone.

My husband and I loved the yacht and visiting the different locations along the coast. Every location was a little bit different, but all were beautiful. The common areas of the boat were never crowded and the daily swim stops were great. The cabin was spacious enough and remarkably quiet (lower deck). Our representative, Vicko, was so informative and humorous with his daily breifings of our itinerary, some history, and cultural tips. The wait staff/bartenders were so helpful and attentive. While generally, the food was good, I was a bit disappointed in their "accommodation" for our dietary needs. I told the booking agent before we booked about our dietary needs and she assured me it would be no problem. We verified this again shortly before the trip. We felt like our request was not fully conveyed to the chef and people supplying provisions on the boat, so it seemed like our alternative meals were kind of afterthoughts. The food did not measure up to the price of the trip.

The staff on the Esperanza Elegance Tour went above and beyond to keep everyone comfortable and happy. The captain chose the most beautiful calm places for our daily swims and made the best of the day we could not go into our designated port due to weather. The food was great and the chef was so accommodating to everyone's dietary restrictions/preferences. Most importantly the people we met were the absolute best and we hung out together in Dubrovnik even after the cruise ended. We made some lifetime friends we hope to travel with more in the future!

The cruise gave us a taste for Croatia that we want to go back to, beautiful clear crystal waters and historical villages with a personalised touch. Dino our cruise director was outstanding briefing us once our twice a day plus constant updates on whatsapp with tips and suggestions and was always available to book restaurants or to answer questions. The boat was spotless and our rooms and bathrooms spacious. The pace of the cruise was great with enough time to relax and free time at shore to see the sights., With a fun group of only 33 guests on board everyone got along. Would recommend to anyone.

Such a wonderful sailing trip!! We spent a week on an Elegance Cruise on the ship Esperanza and couldn’t have hoped for a better holiday. The crew were so friendly and helpful and kept the ship immaculately presented. Klara was our tour leader and had a vivacious and hilarious personality. She was very thorough in the information she provided and ensured everyone and every activity was organised without any issues. We had a perfect balance of relaxation on the sun lounges, swimming and exploring the islands. The ship was spacious and our cabin with ensuite was very comfortable. We were delighted with our first small ship experience and would highly recommend it.

Wonderful. The boat was very clean and well fitted out. Loved the set-up of the upper deck where there was different areas so it made it cosy. Plenty of other areas to sit or sunbathe. The food was well balanced and delicious. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Great places to visit. Activities if desired. Well organised.

This was a beautiful cruise with wonderful swim stops and interesting ports every day. The breakfasts and lunches were very good. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and the boat was kept very clean. There is not a lot of storage in the cabin, given the underbed area is taken up with life jackets. But after a day we had our storage needs figured out. They supply only basic bath amenities so bring your own, including washcloths. The shower was very weak and marginally warm a couple of days, other days it was cool. There were don't enough lines or hooks to hang wet swimwear to dry. The boat is not metal so bringing magnetic hooks doesn't help. This is only one of the very few ways to get to these small island ports. It's well worth the minor foibles on the boat.

The crew and our tour guide were great and very helpful. It would be helpful if they published better details about the daily flow of their cruises to help manage expectations about time on the boat vs exploring the various port locations. For example you dock in each port overnight and the yacht moves in the morning to the next location with a swim stop each morning. You dock at the next port during lunch and then explore tge port during the hottest part of the day and into the night. Breakfast Buffett was varied and solid. Lunches were not great and the biggest miss for my group.

My husband and I just returned from a seven day Croatian cruise aboard the Olimp yacht. We have been on several cruise ships traveling different routes-aboard different largerships, and this was the first time we chose a small, more intimate ship. It was just the two of us so we were nervous going in, but we’ve never had a better experience. From our incredible tour guide Anita to the captain and his amazing crew onboard, all expectations were exceeded. We had never been to Croatia before, and it was helpful to have an educated tour guide that guided us to explore the country safely and provided quality tours so that we could learn more about the country’s history and beauty. As an added bonus, the people we met on the ship were fantastic. We made what I hope will be lifelong friends. The intimate lunches and excursions provided a great opportunity to get to know people better and I am forever grateful!

We had a wonderful experience aboard the Katarina and can’t say enough positive things about our Sail Croatia cruise. The ship was beautiful, comfortable and very well maintained, and the crew made our time onboard so enjoyable. The itinerary was excellent, and we especially loved the swim stops in the beautiful clear waters — definitely a highlight of the trip! Our guide, Dino, was outstanding. He was friendly, informative, extremely organized and always available to help. We always knew what was happening because Dino consistently provided information when promised. He went above and beyond, always with a smile on his face. Between the Katarina, the destinations, swim stops, wonderful crew and Dino, this was a truly memorable way to experience Croatia.

The holiday was lovely. I really liked the Esperanza boat, very warm and welcoming with friendly staff. The swim every morning was a highlight, the top deck for sunbathing and visiting the different islands each day. We meet a bunch of great people whom we got on really well with which added to the overall experience. The food was mainly good, but thought the tipping expectation was extreme.

Well organised, comfy cabin, tasty food. Tour manager Anita was personable and a great communicator. The dining room, although smart and stylish, was not good to eat in. It was very noisy and felt claustrophobic. It was disappointing we could not eat outside. Breakfast was okay, but there was limited choice and the food quality not good. Often the fruit ran out. Coffee not good either. Excursions were terrific with a wide choice. The gratuity advice was incredible. 600 euros per cabin ! Nearly everyone was astonished that we were expected to give that much.

He had endless contacts in every port to cover any request. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 💯% Highly recommended !

We recently completed a Sail Croatia trip from Dubrovnik to Split aboard the Katarina, and it exceeded every expectation. You can immediately feel the pride and care the crew puts into everything—from maintaining the ship to taking incredible care of all 36 guests. Traveling with a group of family & friends, the intimate setup made it easy to connect with everyone on board while still enjoying plenty of space. We met wonderful people, had fabulous food and the itinerary was fantastic, stopping at Mljet, Korčula, Vis, Hvar, and Milna. Our tour manager, Dino, was exceptional—keeping us well-informed about every destination and seamlessly booking our island excursions and dinner reservations. The absolute highlight was the daily morning swims and paddleboarding straight off the back of the ship in the crystal-clear Adriatic. Combined with perfect weather and a genuinely welcoming crew, this trip was pure magic. We couldn't have asked for a better way to experience Croatia!

Amazing. Loved all the ports we visited. The ship was beautiful and well maintained. The staff were extremely helpful and nothing was too much bother. The food was good. About what l expected for what we paid. A couple of things. Food was good. Always fresh but l thought at lunch they should have had another option on the set menu. A few people don’t eat seafood but there was no other option. You would only get different menu if you had an allergy.. TVs in room don’t work. ? Why are they there? Overall l enjoyed the cruises. I would recommend Sail Croatian friends and family.

Katerina is a family run vessel and that's what made it so very special. Our cruise director Dino was the man to get things done.

The cruise on board the Esperanza was a great cruise. The staff was wonderful. The staff and our group of friends got along wonderfully. The food was delicious. But, I would have loved a cup of real coffee instead of instant coffee from a machine. Dino arranged a fishing expedition for us to enjoy. Ivo and Mio kept the drinks flowing and were always smiling. My cabin was refreshed daily. The comfort on the boat in the social areas was nice but there were a few issues that I would like to mention. While there was a blow dryer for drying our hair, the blow dryers lacked power. There was an electric outlet in the sleeping area of the cabin but there was no mirror. A mirror would have been nice for makeup application too. Also the closet did not give us the option to hang anything longer than a shirt. My dresses couldn’t hang long. There was not enough drawer storage at all! Towels were treated like a precious commodity and not refreshed unless asked for. Not true luxury

My husband and I had a fantastic week. The ship was so luxurious and our above deck cabin was even better than I had anticipated. The food was all delicious and drinks were reasonably priced. The swim stops each day were a standout for us- the water is so blue and clear and warm. Loved jumping off the boat into that beautiful water. Within a few short hours on board we found ‘tribe’ of like minded people. But really everyone on the cruise was lovely- from all over the world. Anita was our chief cruise organiser and was superb- nothing was too much trouble. Her WhatsApp updates, photos and recommendations were spot on. Loved every minute of our week on Romantic Star.

Excellent holiday all round. Olimp was a modern comfortable sound proofed ship with plenty of space inside and out. Crew and tour leader exemplary friendly and professional. Nothing too much trouble . Breakfasts wide range of hot and cold dishes, bread was a rather disappointing no whole meal granary or traditional breads . Lunches very substantial we would have preferred a salad sandwich self service bar too . Itinerary well planned visited beautiful znd varied islands and swim stops sensational. Dinner in farmhouse was so so I think we would have preferred to dine in Stari Grad independently and tour of Dubrovnik disappointing not very informative and bus charge rather silly Tips at end caused a lot of controversy would be better to subsume in total cost of holiday However overall a fantastic holiday run by people who were passionate about their jobs and Croatia. Don’t miss it !

Our trip with Sail Croatia was better than we ever could have imagined. Every single detail was perfect and incredible from the ambience and elegance of the yacht itself to the unbelievable staff. Within a day, the staff knew all our names, room numbers, and dietary needs. Dietary needs were treated seamlessly and substitutions were made with equally delicious food. The food was beyond belief with gourmet meals for every lunch comparable to the highest class restaurant. Again, all due to a magnificent staff, who had become friends in just a couple days. In addition to the meals, they were constantly cleaning, polishing, preparing swim stops for us, and attending to every need. Our tour guide for the week made our trip the best ever with presentations, recommendations, immediate answers to questions, and 24 hour availability and support. Klara’s sense of humor, knowledge, and genuine care for her passengers made the trip perfect in every way.

I was on the "Elegant" cruise on Romantic Star. If you request non-dairy, I hope you like boiled potatoes. If you're paying a single supplement, prepare to be disappointed. At about $5000 for 1 week I expected more than The Annoyed Server, The Angry Sous Chef, and The Bar Tender from Jeers. This is a bad trip for solos and even worse for onesies who don't drink much. I am not a foodie but found most meals weird and unpalatable, especially the village dinner. This has nothing to do with the ethnicity of the cuisine. The trip revolved around couples and wine tasting. Even though I have traveled solo many times and I was with a dozen other friends, I still felt blue from time to time as did some other solo travelers there. One of the perks of i and travel, which of this was not, is that staff learns your name caters to you on some level, and asks if you like, the food. Our tour manager Anita was a rock star. But could not make up for the disinterested staff and lackluster staff.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. Firstly, we’re delighted to hear your wonderful comments about Anita, and we’ll be sure to pass these on to her. We’re sorry that your overall experience onboard Romantic Star did not meet your expectations. Having reviewed the feedback from this departure as a whole, guests generally rated their experience highly, so your 1-star rating does stand apart from the broader feedback received. While we understand that you booked independently and paid the single supplement, we would also like to clarify that you were travelling alongside a larger group of approximately 12 friends onboard, rather than travelling solo. Our Elegance cruises welcome guests travelling independently, as couples and as part of groups, and naturally the social dynamic between guests will vary from departure to departure. We appreciate that food is also a matter of personal preference and are sorry that the meals were not to your taste. Your comments regarding your dietary requirements and the service you experienced have also been shared with the relevant team. Thank you again for travelling with us, and particularly for recognising Anita’s efforts throughout your week.
The trip of a lifetime, fortunately, we knew everybody on the Katarina yacht. Staff were exceptional., I love that it is a family run yacht, they took extreme pride in everything they did. Thank you for making my first trip to Croatia a memorable one!

Our week was good. Everyone was professional and attentive. The food was very healthy and good. The swim spots were good. The island stops were good. Our only disappointment was a change in the schedule resulting in our last port stop before Dubrovnik being boring and the food options mediocre.

As someone that loves to travel, this was once of my best trips ever. We were invited by a friend and our ship and crew were the best! Katarina was a beautiful boat, but the staff made the experience everything for our group. They felt so approachable for any of our needs, and Vedran was soo knowledgeable and accessible for all of our needs.

The yacht was beautiful but the crew did not seem happy to be there. There were no smiles from the crew members and very little interaction with the guests. One sailor paid no attention to guests even when spoken to directly. The cruise director was somewhat confusing in discussing the next days itinerary. Swim stops were beautiful. More and newer swim toys would have been appreciated. Noodles were crumbling and breaking. On the plus side, the food was amazing and beautifully presented. Kudos to the chef and sous chef. The ships air conditioning was not adequate for the hot temperatures at night. Many had trouble sleeping as the a/c was turned off. The Captain's dinner could only be described as "sweaty". Transfers were well handled. Overall I had a good time with a great group of travelers.

THIS WAS AN EXCELLENT VACATION. THE OWNERS AND STAFF ON THE BOAT TOOK SUCH AMAZING CARE OF US THE ENTIRE WEEK. WE WERE COMPLETELY SPOILED, VERY WELL FED AND HAD A LOVELY WEEK OF EXPLORING THE ISLANDS. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. (DEFINITELY THE KATARINA)

We had a wonderful cruise that we thoroughly enjoyed. Dino our tour guide was excellent, always helpful and always smiling.

I sailed on the Esperanza on the route Split Return South. For travelers who enjoy yacht living, Sail Croatia offers a great combination of onboard pampering and daily water activities plus land sightseeing. The Dalmatian coast offers beautiful vistas and calm waters in the islands. Each stop offered different experiences from hiking to the Mjlet “lakes” to sitting on the Hvar promenade and people watching, to shopping, learning history, and museum going in Split, Dubrovnik and Korcula.

This was the first cruise we have done and turned out to be one of the best trips I’ve ever had. Everything was great. I was very fortunate to join with a fantastic group of people (28 in total) and we had the best time. The breakfast every morning was fresh. The 3 course lunch was always a treat and the Captains dinner was wonderful. The crew were all amazing. Cabins were larger than I was expecting and kept clean. I would recommend this trip to anyone.

This was our first small ship cruise, accompanied by another couple (friends) who have been on lots of larger cruises, four of us did not know what to expect. On arrival, our tour guide Lola was very professional & welcoming which continued throughout the entire cruise! The boat (Romantic Star) was beautiful, clean & well maintained with all creature comforts. Our Captain and all crew were very pleasant and accommodating. Scenery of course was amazing!! Was lovely to be able to come and go from the boat when docked without being on time restraints, allowing us to explore each port at our own leisure or, take part in one of the many excursions both included and paid. For thrill seekers looking to go offroad on ATV tour we don't recommend as all roads are sealed and we felt price was a little expensive for what the tour included. Overall, we highly recommend anyone to Sail Croatia with Sail Croatia as we will again in the future!

We had the most amazing week onboard Romantic Star. The crew were great, captained by Ivan. Our tour guide, Lola, couldn’t have been better. She was helpful, informative, great knowledge, spoke brilliant English and had a great sense of humour - all necessary for the group of passengers she was looking after! The choice and range of islands we visited were perfect. All different and all enjoyable. The excursions were fantastic too. The swim stops were one of my favourite parts of every day - such beautiful places chosen to stop. We were lucky with the group of passengers on the boat - all lovely people and super fun! We really hope we can return for another cruise one day. We’ve fallen in love with Croatia. Having never been before, the mini-ship cruise was the perfect introduction to this stunning country. Thank you Sail Croatia!

We had the most amazing time on our Sail Croatia cruise and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. One of the biggest highlights was waking up each day and heading to a new, beautiful swimming spot — crystal-clear water, incredible scenery and the perfect way to spend each day. We also loved the people we met along the way. Sharing the experience with such a wonderful group made the trip even more special. But what really stood out was the amazing crew. Their care, attention and pride in looking after the boat was exceptional. They worked incredibly hard to keep everything running smoothly and the boat in beautiful condition, while always making everyone feel welcome and looked after. It was such a wonderful experience from start to finish, and we would absolutely recommend Sail Croatia. We’ve come home with some fantastic memories and friendships that we’ll treasure. ❤️

Absolutely exceeded expectations! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Sail Croatia trip was even better than I imagined — and my expectations were already very high! The crew were energetic, friendly and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us. The perfect mix of adventure, history, beautiful Croatian towns and those incredible swim stops. With the extreme heat, I would have happily had even more swim stops! Katarina was a beautiful boat and a real credit to the owner and crew, who worked constantly to keep her looking so well cared for. But what truly made the trip special was the people. We met such a wonderful group and shared so many laughs and memories. And our host ‘V’ was fantastic — his humour, energy and love for Croatia were infectious. I’m leaving with amazing memories and a real love for the Croatian coast. I hope to be back one day! 🇭🇷⛵️❤️

We had a wonderful time sailing throughout Croatia's coastline and islands. Our Tour Manager, Anita did a wonderful job, caring for all of us and going out of her way to make sure we were all comfortable and happy. The ship was great and the weather was spectacular. The captain Ivan, and all the crew on board were friendly and hardworking. We were just sorry that the cruise only lasted one week, as we could have loved to explore more of Croatia.

Sail Croatia delivered a one of a kind experience that we will not soon forget. We were a group of 4 couples and this was our 1st time in Croatia. The tour offered us an amazing opportunity to hug the coastline, and see so many different islands-- big and small. The daily swim stops did not disappoint. They were spectacular! There truly was something for everyone. The entire crew was outstanding; and our tour manager Anita, was kind, caring, sweet, attentive, and funny. It's a 24/7 job to manage and please 30 plus varied guests. The rest of the guests were open, welcoming, and a true joy to be around! We could not have asked for better humans to dine and travel with! We hope our paths might cross again soon! Athina and Darcy xo

We were a party of 10 from USA NY (we can be a lot ) and we met the nicest people from Australia, Canada , Great Britain. Our group of 36 forged nice friendships and great memories to last a lifetime !! This trip from Dubrovnik to Split was absolutely beautiful, the islands , swim stops , tours and care of the crew made this trip PERFECT! Huge shout out to V ,thank you for your humor ,knowledge , you made this trip !!!! Sail Croatia is fortunate to have you !! Let me not forget our fearless Captain as well as Ivana and Carlos .always there always a smile and the best service and the rest of the crew !!! You all were outstanding !! We will be back !

The week on the Romantic Star was 5 Star all the way with an excellent, professional crew, outstanding service and delicious food. Every day was curated perfectly and Dino provided complete and helpful communication to provide us the optimal use of our time in each port. The swim stops were heaven. It seemed like every day was more beautiful than the day before. The ship is gorgeous and very well taken care of and clean. Captain Ivan runs a tight ship. Some opportunities for improvement. The crew smoked a lot and for the non-smoking guests, it was quite unbearable at times on such a small ship. Second, the swim stop toys need an upgrade. Two of the three float rafts were broken early in the week and not replaced. The snorkel masks are old and foggy. I even bought defogger and they still were unusable. For an elegant cruise, the equipment should be top notch. Thank you for a wonderful trip! I highly recommend and can’t wait to do it again!

We decided to cruise with Sail Croatia again this year as we had enjoyed our holiday so much last year. We sailed on the Katarina this time of and have to say our trip was faultless! The cabin, food and company were amazing and this was our best experience of cruising to date. The itinerary took us to fabulous new places and swim stops so it felt completely different. Above all we have to praise the captain and crew. They work so hard to keep everything smooth running and spotless clean. A true luxury experience from start to finish. Particular thanks to Ivana and everyone for making our anniversary celebrations so special! The chef must be a genius to make such a delicious cake onboard. We will definitely be back!! Sorry we can't mention everyone by name but thank you all, not forgetting our cruise director Vedran? for such a special time. Xx

We were a group of 5 couples from America. We had the best time! Vedran was the amazing! He was funny and so knowledgeable. He kept us updated on What’s app and made sure we knew so much about each stop. We had flight issues and he stayed up with us till midnight helping us on his laptop. I couldn’t imagine a better tour director. Our captain, Ivan was always around checking on us and we had so much fun with him at the captains dinner. My favorite part of the days were the swim stop. The deck was great at getting us in and out of the water safely. The hardest workers on the ship were Ivana and Carlo. They were always nearby with a drink or asking if there is anything we needed. Also Petra kept our rooms clean each day. This was definitely my favorite vacation and I will probably be back one day.

Travelled on the Katarina from Split to Dubrovnik. From the initial booking, customer service when emailing with a question, to last minutes on the ship, you are looked after. The ship is in pristine condition, the crew and rep make you feel at home and the food excellent. The bonus was we met a fantastic bunch of people. Having never done a cruise we didn’t know what to expect but everything is organised, the rep gives a daily itinerary of sailing times, excursions, things to do, places to eat etc to help with your planning and the daily swim spots are breathtaking. Looking forward to our next one.

Being able to sail on the Adriatic and see Croatia from that perspective was an absolutely amazing experience! The entire staff made us feel right at home from the very beginning! Vicko, our rep, was so knowledgeable and entertaining. The swim stops were spectacular, with the crystal clear turquoise water. The food was delicious and it was so much fun to get to know the other passengers and share meals and excursions with them. It was truly an amazing vacation - I’m ready to go back again!!

Our Sail Croatia cruise exceeded every expectation. While the stunning Croatian coastline and crystal-clear Adriatic waters speak for themselves, it was the people who transformed a great holiday into an unforgettable experience. From day one, our tour leader Viko and the entire crew were incredibly warm, welcoming and genuinely committed to ensuring everyone had the best possible time. Nothing was ever too much trouble. Their enthusiasm, friendliness and willingness to go the extra mile created an atmosphere that was relaxed, fun and inclusive. Each island had its own unique character, offering a wonderful variety of history, culture, scenery and local experiences. Every stop felt different, making each day a new adventure while showcasing the incredible beauty of Croatia. The food throughout the cruise was excellent, with delicious meals that complemented the relaxed onboard atmosphere perfectly. And to top it off we had loads of fun with our fellow travellers - amazing group.

Our holiday was fantastic. The Olimp is a beautiful ship, designed with every comfort in mind. We were only a small group of passengers on our cruise, 14 in total so there was plenty of choice of where to relax during sea time. Food was delicious with a buffet breakfast full of choice and lunch also delicious. Allergies were well taken care of. We stopped for a swim stop each day and captain Jurges made sure he picked the best spots. Each afternoon we berthed up in port and were free to explore beautiful towns. Having been prepared by our tour operator Lola we knew the best places to go and what to see. Included in our cruise were some guided tours and a dinner in a vineyard as well as a delicious captains dinner one evening. Our cabins were comfortable and were serviced every morning while we were at breakfast. Nothing was too much trouble for the lovely staff, Linda and Ally, and all the deck staff also. Great friendships and wonderful memories were made.

One of the best holidays ever!! Everything about our week aboard the Olimp with Sail Croatia was outstanding!! The Olimp boat itself is incredible, impeccably clean, luxurious yet a relaxed vibe. Loved the stylish top deck lounge/spa area! Also loved the unique lowering platform at the rear into the turquoise waters where we had our daily swim stops, SUPs, snorkelling etc. The 3 course meals were all delicious and different each day- kudos to our chef! All the service staff were so attentive, with a genuinely happy demeanour and very professional. Our tour director Vicko with his positive energy was very informative providing briefings every morning on the upcoming day's port features and activity options. All of the activities optional or included were fabulous, Our cruise was in June, so awesome weather! It was our first time to Croatia which we absolutely loved and I couldn't recommend highly enough, a Sail Croatia cruise aboard the Olimp! It exceeded all our expectations!

The Esperanza was a comfortable boat with just the right amenities including a pleasant dining room with large windows, a top deck that never felt crowded, and a gracious staff. Dino, the Director, went out of his way every day to ensure everyone was comfortable and that we had all we needed. Our cabin was larger than I expected, including a full shower. The walking tours at our stops were led by local guides, several of whom were really outstanding. It was an engaging itinerary with lots of time for swim stops and relaxation. The countryside farm to table dinner was truly special. Our fellow passengers were a delight, and well-educated. I would love to take another cruise since we enjoyed this one so much.

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Was impressed with the Olimp: impeccably maintained, everything gleaming, spick-and-span, and the whole crew were friendly & helpful, and Vedran is a star organiser! Our lunches were all delicious. .The breakfast buffet was sufficient except for the "orange juice" which neither looked nor tasted as if it had been near a real orange. Breakfast was too short, and too early. Should last until at least 10am, Also I'd have liked the option to eat on the outside deck. When at sea who wants to be in an enclosed space.? The highlight of the trip was swimming. But I wanted more & longer swim stops. Most were only 1 hour - not enough to enjoy repeatedly jumping into that gorgeous turquoise sea! I'd have also appreciated more time actually sailing, not moored in a port. The expeditions were at the hottest time of day, so I mostly opted out and relaxed on the ship's cushions in the breeze - that upper deck lounging area was a perfect touch of luxury!

We had an excellent trip from a Dubrovnik to Split. The weather was perfect. The Adriatic was calm and a beautiful blue color. The crew on the Olimp was excellent. My only complaint was trying to find our ship to board in Dubrovnik. The Sail Croatia “Find Your Ship” app was not helpful at all, No one answered the phone number listed for assistance. We had to take 2 taxi’s and lug our suitcases around the port for an hour until someone at the tourist information office directed us to try the port entrance under the bridge several minutes by taxi from where we were. It was stressful, hot, tiring, and generally an unpleasant way to start our trip. Fortunately, things improved after that.

A wonderful combination of relaxation on deck with interesting town visits with guided tours. The boat, Esperanza, was perfect, cabins spacious and excellent facilities. The crew were friendly and very efficient and the chef provided top quality meals. A daily swim in the sea was much appreciated. Dino, our tour rep, kept us informed verbally and by text so we all knew the itinerary for the day. His English was good and he kept us laughing and happy! A great job! The only change would be to have a buffet lunch from 12.00 to 2.00 rather than a 3 course lunch at a set time. Also a bigger TV screen in the salon would help presentations which were very informative. We would certainly recommend Sail Croatia.

As I say unforgettable. From the Luxury of Yacht Olimp, our lovely friendly Captain and his team on board to the islands and destinations of Dubrovnik and Split. The swim stops were lovely and the food in board was excellent. We only had a few hours of daylight at each destination and I would have preferred dinner on board rather than a three course lunch. I would like to either get off the boat and swim or discover the islands more and do more walking. The only issue we had on board was the water heating system was intermittent and you didn’t know if you was going to get a hot or cold shower.

Everything was planned very well. Our tour manager Vicko was incredible, always giving lots of history of the towns and information on the destination with ideas of what to do. The food was top class, and all the staff extremely helpful. Perfect mix of relaxing and exploring.

Weeere not sure what to expect but were very pleasantly surprised. The boat - the Olimp and our cabin was nicer than we were expecting. The provided meals were varied, generous and tasty. The crew worked extremely hard to make sure we had a wonderful relaxing time. MVPs were Ally and Linda who were up early to make sure breakfast was ready and who then served us throughout the day and well into the evening. They were always last to bed but always smiling and helpful. They deserve a medal!! The itinerary was great - we sailed from Dubrovnik to Split. Our fellow cruisers were all lovely and friendly so all in all just a great vibe. I would highly recommend this cruise.

One word: GREAT! From the moment we stepped into this beautiful yacht, it's HOLIDAY. All cabins were filled and the 36 people just mixed well with one another since day one. The yacht offers generous space for us to spread and enjoy either our private moments or sun bathing. Staff was excellent.

Elegance cruise. ESPERANZA No words can explain how wonderful this cruise was. It was a once in a lifetime experience for us. We travelled with 8 people and the boat only had 20 cruisers. It was like our own private cruise ship. I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE BAD REVIEWS!!!!!! DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM. THEY ARE KAREN’S!!!!! FOOD: A+ ROOM A DIETARY RESTRICTIONS A+ BOAT CLEANLINESS A+ STAFF A+ DAILY SWIM STOPS A+ COMFORT A+ SUGGESTIONS: Bring a water bottle. They provide a water cooler for you to fill up your water. Bring water shoes if you want to go to the beach, because the beaches are pebbles no sand, and there are sea urchins. They do not provide lifejackets for the swim stops, If you’re not a good swimmer, I bought an inflatable one on Amazon that worked terrific for me to paddleboard. They do not provide blowup water toys so if you want to be floating out in the water, bring your own. Lots of people brought snorkelling gear

It was the best. Olimp was a beautiful ship. Very well taken care of. Loved the swim platform. Lots of room to relax and enjoy the islands. Vic and the crew were awesome. Vic took care of any need we had. His communication with us was top notch. Ellie and Linda were great bartenders. Our Captain was amazing. He took us to a different swim hole everyday. It mattered to him that we enjoyed ourselves. LOVED Croatia!!! It was so beautiful. The people, the food, the history. loved it all. To top it off we spent 7 days with the most wonderful people from all over. We will definitely be back.

Sail Croatia – Olimp (Split to Dubrovnik) – 5 Stars! Our week aboard the Olimp exceeded expectations. Vicko was an outstanding cruise director—funny, informative, and always willing to help, even rescuing our Nautika dinner reservation. His presentation on Croatian history and culture was excellent. Captain George, Ellie, and Linda were all wonderful, and our cabin was spotless throughout the trip. The swim stops were spectacular, with crystal-clear water and stunning scenery. The Olimp is a beautiful ship, and we loved our lower-deck cabin—quiet, spacious, and cool. The swim platform made water access easy and was a highlight of the ship. The itinerary was fantastic, with Korčula and Hvar as our favorite stops. We enjoyed the Blue Cave, wine tasting in Korčula, and the village dinner in Žrnovo. Great breakfasts, delicious lunches, amazing crew, beautiful destinations, and wonderful fellow travelers. We’d do it again in a heartbeat. Five stars!

We had a great time. Met lovely people, great group and the places we went to were incredible. The staff went way above and beyond. I can not rave more about each and every one of them. They said they are like a family and it showed. They are a credit to Olimp. Our trip was to be with our dear friends but sadly he passed away while we were on the second last night of our trip. The staff handled us with respect and genuine wishes. Thank you again for your considerate and caring ways. Viko you are a walking encyclopaedia and you can see you take great pride in your job. You were a joy to talk to and you go above and beyond your call of duty 🙏🙏🙏🙏

We loved our cruise on the Queen Jelena! The boat was beautiful and absolutely spotless! There was plenty of shade, sunbeds and also a jacuzzi. The day started with a breakfast buffet between 8 and 9am. Then we relaxed on the deck until it was time for our midmorning swim. This was such a fun! It was easy to get in and out of the water as they provided a stepped ramp instead of the usual ladder. And swim noodles. Then cocktail time and lunch. We had a 3 course lunch every day. All meals were delicious and of very high quality. We docked shortly after lunch and explored the different destinations on our own and chose our own restaurant for dinner in the port. Our tour guide, Vedran, was excellent. He was very charming, helpful and quite entertaining! Every day he would give us recommendations for dinner and things to do in each stop. The entire crew were very efficient, friendly and helpful. This is a great way to explore Croatia and I would highly recommend Sail Croatia. Thank you.

Sailing with Sail Croatia has been a wonderful experience for my husband and I, and our 2 travelling companions. The cabins are very comfortable, the facilities on Romantic Star are absolutely beautiful, from the comfortable Lounges on the spa deck, the seating on the back deck, the dining room and bar, there are many places to relax and take in the views. The Croatian coast is very beautiful, and each and every town is extremely well set up for tourists, plenty of cafes and restaurants. The Croatian people are very polite and helpful, and very eager to work and make the most of their six month tourism season. The entire experience was excellent.

Just back from a fabulous holiday sailing around the Croatian islands. Sailing on the yacht Katarina - which was absolutely immaculate - brilliant crew, swim stops, beautiful islands, food and service - could not fault it. Supported by a great tour director - Anita. She was good fun, gave us so much information and was so genuine in wanting us to have the best experience. I would highly recommend this trip - it has given us some fantastic memories. Superb in every way.

The small boat size and number of passengers was great and we made many new friends that we will keep in touch with. The team on the boat as well as Dino who organised everything for the passengers - from planned to ad hoc were excellent. Food was always good, rooms and the rest of the ship were clean and tidy. Also the schedule of leisure time, sight seeing, and swim stops was perfect. We will be recommended Sail Croatia. Thank you for a terrific week.

Esperanza Cruise Split to Dubrovnik. A very relaxing experience for a first time cruiser. Mornings include swim stops in pristine waters or relaxing on the top deck. After lunch, which were always outstanding and varied, we dock at a new port and explore - free time. The Village Dinner and Captain’s dinner were authentic and fun with local influences and musicians. The Captain and all his crew were professional and friendly and the boat was kept immaculate at all times. All meals on board were quality and the menu changed daily. Our Tour Manager Klara was a stand out, she was approachable, informative providing daily updates about the details of the island we would be visiting, patient with everyone and had a wonderful bubbly and charming personality. The highlight of the trip was getting to know fellow travellers, listening to their lives and travel experiences while cruising beautiful destinations and making new friends.Thank you. Rita & Ross

Our cruise was amazing! Vicko was extraordinary! Always smiling, so friendly & respectful & fun ! His port talks were interesting, he was very knowledgeable about Croatia. He had a great sense of humour and absolutely nothing was a problem! 10/10 The captain George was so friendly & approachable. Always smiling! Our swim stops were brilliant! I loved the way George spoke to us all and made sure we were enjoying our cruise. 10/10 too! We had cabin 1 which was spacious & comfortable. Housekeeping did a great job. Linda at the bar was helpful & obliging organising my gluten free food. She always had a ready smile and really friendly. She’s an asset to the team . The male crew were friendly & chatty which was lovely. Amelie (I think that’s her name) at the bar could be a little terse so I always waited for Linda if I needed anything. Overall I would definitely recommend that particular cruise to friends. I hope Vicko & the other crew I mentioned get credit &recognised for their work

There isn’t enough stars to rate how amazing the elegance cruise on the Esperanza was. One of the best holidays of our lives. Klara and the team made sure we had the most incredible experience. From the swim stops each day to the mid morning jacuzzi, to the amazing ever changing on board food menu, island stops and excursions, it was simply the best! As a 40 year old couple who wanted a slow holiday where we didn’t need to think too much about what to do next, this cruise was ideal for us, allowing us to do as much or as little as our hearts desired!

Amazing! Klara- our tour QUEEN- guided us through an amazingly well curated experience in beautiful, unspoiled Croatia. . Whatever we wanted she made happen. The Sail Croatia itinerary of slow mornings forced me to relax. I learned to paddle board at swim stops. Our adventures on land fed my soul. The CHEF delivered Michelin Star worthy cuisine EVERY meal. EVERY crew member was top shelf and kind. Committed to their mission. We were 26 passengers total on an Elegance cruise on the spotless and well cared for Esperanza end of May 2026. We quickly became a community of friends- socializing, learning, helping, reaching out to include each other- world peace was accomplished amongst our varied countries and us! One passenger led exercise class followed by another leading yoga. Impromptu dance parties on top deck rocked. EXPERIENCE RELAXATION ADVENTURE FRIENDSHIPS all accomplished! Thank you!

It’s hard to put into words how amazing our week on the Olimp was. From the moment we stepped onto the boat we were blown away. The boat is exquisite. It is a credit to George (our captain) and his fantastic crew that everything was maintained to perfection. It looked brand new every day. We made lifelong friends and our week aboard exploring the beauty of the Adriatic was something we will remember forever. We purposely planned our cruise for the conclusion of our month long holiday and it was the best decision we made…although the plan to simply relax was not quite the case as we were having too much fun. Vedran had everything under control so the biggest decision of the day was ‘which cocktail’. Our fantastic crew were amazing (especially Ally & Linda). Nothing was ever too hard. I cannot recommend Sail Croatia enough. Would go again in a heartbeat.

My friend and I sailed aboard the Olimp from Split to Dubrovnik, and the experience exceeded our expectations. Sail Croatia made the booking process seamless. The Olimp was elegant, beautifully designed, and our below-deck cabin was spacious, comfortable, and quiet. Captain Jure and his crew provided exceptional service throughout the week. The chefs prepared delicious meals while accommodating dietary restrictions, and the entire staff worked tirelessly to ensure a memorable experience. A special thank you to Vicko, our Sail Croatia representative. His daily briefings provided fascinating history, local recommendations, and plenty of laughs. He also created a WhatsApp group that helped guests connect and share memories throughout the trip..Highlights included the daily swim stops, biking through Mljet National Park, and exploring the unique Croatian islands. The Captain's Dinner was the perfect ending to an unforgettable week. I highly recommend Sail Croatia!

The ship was wonderful - spacious rooms, plenty of seating areas in both sun and shade, excellent meals and friendly, professional staff. The wine-tasting experiences were awesome, held in a variety of venues on our various island stops. We also enjoyed the daily swim stops and our freindly fellow passengers.

Our holiday was very relaxing. Dino was 5 stars and so were the rest of the crew. Great way to see the islands. The only reason we rated 4stars instead of 5 is because we would have preferred not to be served a full 3 course meal at lunch. A buffet would have been better. Save the big meal for when we were in the towns. As it was we ate two dinner type meals a day until we decided to just not eat lunch on the ship.

What an absolutely amazing vacation! Sailing on the Olimp, the entire Olimp staff, and our tour director, Vicko, were all so wonderful. The ship itself is stunning and meticulously cared for by the hard-working and kind crew and includes many comfortable places to lounge and take in the view alone or with friends. The service provided by the ship staff is top notch. The food was great and the chef accomodated various dietary requests from the ship's guests. Our itinerary was clearly communicated and detailed destination highlights were provided by our tour director daily, with continuous updates, reminders, and guest questions answered throughout the day; one is always guided with top recommendations for sightseeing and dinners at each stop. It is clear Vicko is well respected by his peers, goes above and beyond, and enjoys what he does, which enhanced the experience for everyone. I recommend this as a must-do vacation for adults of any age!

Great time on the Esperanza for 7 days. Swim stops were relaxing and Capitan Jure always found a calm place to anchor the vessel. The Esperanza was comfortable with lots of places to sit and read, outside or in. Food was delicious and generous servings. Capitan’s Party on the second to last night was just great! Everyone up and dancing, and Capitan Jure and waiters agreed when one of us asked them to dance! We had lots of time to explore the places where we stopped as we sailed short distances each day. Dinner was on our own in the towns The tour director was Dino, and if I could give him 10 stars I would. Absolutely excellent at his job: He always had the answer to our many questions. He was relaxed and made us feel that whatever we needed we would have when it came to the excursions and how things worked on the boat. Dino was fun, kind, and entirely competent. He got along with all passengers and crew. Highest marks. Thank you

We had a fabulous experience on the Romantic Star. Our Tour Director, Klara, made our trip wonderful. She organized wine tastings on every island. This was a magical way to experience the local culture and their food. We drank wine in bunkers left over from the Yugoslav military and quaint villages that produce everything from wine to meats and cheeses. The food on the ship was inventive and delicious. All of the servers and staff on the boat were friendly attentive. I was also impressed with our stateroom and the space it provided. Our particular tour was a lively bunch from all parts of the world. We thoroughly enjoyed not only what the ship and tours at each stop had to offer, but the company was a welcome surprise! We highly recommend a sail with Sail Croatia. It was an awesome way to experience the best of Croatia!!

It was quite marvellous. The Kraljica Jelena is a beautiful boat: Old world charm and modern conveniences. Split to Dubrovnik was the perfect end to a month long trip.

We were two friends travelling together on the Queen Jelena. Recently refurbished boat with character and spotlessly clean. Our cabin was reasonably spacious. Crew were very polite, food was good and the islands we visited were great. We always stopped at beautiful spots for our daily swim. Water gorgeous and refreshing.
