Amazing experience

My wife and I travelled on the Tempera from Dubrovnik to Split. It was an amazing experience and such a beautiful country. The Sail Croatia staff was attentive, caring and friendly. We would absolutely travel with them again! Thank you for the adventure of a lifetime.

Wonderful week!

Everything was fantastic, from our crew and tour guide to the beautiful islands we got to see. My trip was better than I ever thought it could be and I will definitely recommend Sail Croatia to friends and family.

Great Croatian Experience

We were made to feel like special guests the entire time. Marin the tour director, Marco and Vlaho who looked after food and bar service were all exceptional and we enjoyed their company and service. The crew members and Captain were all excellent. They looked after all the other details to make sure our time was special.

Beyond Expectations

Returned from an Explorer cruise with Sail Croatia, on the Salve Di Mare which is a stunning, luxurious and incredibly comfortable vessel. The layout is exceptional with spacious cabins, sun decks, and jacuzzi. The ship is kept in immaculate condition from the cabins, swim platforms, dining salons, to the sun decks. The service from all staff is professional, friendly, and world class (special thanks to Marko, Vlaho). The onboard chefs, every meal a daily highlight. Our tour manager Marin, was an incredible host, all week going above and beyond for our group. His local knowledge made every excursion experience wonderful. Huge thank you to the entire crew, for their exceptional hospitality, we will definitely be back!

Awesome Experience!!

Everything was so well planned. Our representative Marin was extremely helpful. I loved the way he explained what was to transpire every day and how he repeated the info on WhatsApp. The rest of the staff including Marco & Vlaho were also excellent. I am vegetarian so a big shout out to the kitchen staff who make delicious meals for me. Overall, as 2 women travelling together, I always felt safe & well taken care of. I would highly recommend.

So much fun, solo traveller friendly!

The destinations were beautiful, the swim stops every day were so much fun. All of the islands had something exciting to do on them, and if you didn’t want to go out, the boat had a wide range of cosy spots to read a book and relax. The staff were so accommodating and friendly, and the food on board was delicious, something different every day! Thank you so much to all the people who work to make this trip as magical as it is!

Fun times!

It was a great week! We traveled with two other couples. Boat was clean, our tour manager was amazing and the crew was pleasant and personable. The food was great some days and other just mediocre but you can’t please everyone right? The islands are beautiful and Vicko made sure we all knew what was coming ahead with activities and sites to see. The communication was on point with a group chat. All questions were answered. We would definitely do this again!

- Jana, 08/05/2026 15:16, Travelled in a Couple

Amazing Experience!!

I had an amazing holiday and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Dino, our rep, was incredibly welcoming from the start and made everything feel easy and enjoyable. The food on the boat was outstanding throughout the trip, and the bar staff were super friendly and always brought great humour to the atmosphere. On Captain’s Dinner Night, it was especially nice to see the captain making an effort to personally talk to guests—it really added a special touch to the whole experience. Overall, a fantastic holiday that I’d highly recommend.

- Amber, 05/05/2026 05:26, Travelled Solo

Fantastic Experience!!

We had the best time on our Sail Croatia cruise, which exceeded our expectations in every way!! From the time we got onboard, we were completely taken care of by our guide, Dino, our servers/bartenders, Cesar & Meriko, and all the crew. Dino did a fantastic job at making sure we knew what to expect each day & even joining us on some of our excursions. Was also wondeful to get to know all of our fellow passengers. Will definitely recommend this experience to family & friends!!

- Barbara, 04/05/2026 17:41, Travelled with Family

Great trip!

Croatia is a beautiful country with some amazing towns with incredible medieval fortresses and buildings. Cruising among the Dalmatian islands in the Adriatic Sea on Sail Croatia's Almissa ship was the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. The crew served delicious breakfasts and lunches. Caesar and Merico kept everyone well served and entertained. Dino, our tour guide, did a fantastic job and had great suggestions for places to go on our own. He was also a great source of information on the history and culture of Croatia. Our fellow travelers were great - a small cruise ship (28 people on our ship) is a great way to explore Croatia and meet so many great folks. Lots of fun!

Explorer cruise Almissa

We loved our cruise on the Almissa, we sailed from Dubrovnik to Split. We had a wonderful week, the crew the food & locations were amazing. We were so lucky to have Dino as our tour guide, he made our trip the best, he gave as so much information on where to eat, what to see, great swim stops, when the weather wasn’t great he organised alternatives which we much appreciated. We had the time of our lives, we loved Croatia!!

Excellent Way to Explore Croatia

I had an amazing time on the Explorer cruise - Split (return). It exceeded my expectations, and I would highly recommend. Great crew, passengers, ports, and activities.

- Debbie, 20/10/2025 02:47, Travelled Solo

Fantastic trip!!

I absolutely loved this trip! We did the Explorer Split Return on the Almissa. I'm an avid cruiser, but now I'm spoiled and hooked on small ship cruises! It was so nice to have swim stops each day and get to swim right off the bow of the boat in a beautiful cove! Since we overnighted in each port, we were able to enjoy our time there without worrying about getting back to the boat on time! We were docked in the harbor at each port and walking distance to dining, shops, and activities. Food was great and service was excellent. Our cruise director Vin was so friendly and helpful, giving us great tips and advice for each port. My bed was very comfortable and room was clean with good AC! I had an above deck cabin, so I was able to open my window for fresh air, which was very nice since it wasn't very hot during our end of Sept sailing. I would definitely recommend this company and would not hesitate to book another cruise with them if I have the opportunity to return to Croatia!

Very enjoyable week

Great variety of islands, excellent crew and host (Dino). Food was very enjoyable and boat relaxing and clean.

Explorer Cruise. The blending of generations seamlessly

Sail Croatia helped make the travel process seamless from start to finish. The communication before during and after made the decision to book simple, what to do during the cruise easy and decision to rebook in the future a definite. The staff was visible hardworking and always available to assist in any way need from pouring a drink, crossing a gap or information about local culture or traditions. The cruise director Dino was the best. He not only informative and professional but also fun and engaging. He arranged activities,,helped with bookings,, transport and was there for us to resolve an unexpected inconvenience with a flat tire on a bike excursion . Whike the weather was not perfect for our cruise. Dino and the Captain worked together to avoid the difficult uncontrollable weather and locate ports with better weather and new fun activities seamlessly. This was an unforgettable experience for my daughter and I. Thank you Sail Croatia

SO mych fun!!!

Overall it was one of the best trips ever.! The boat was not fancy but adequate. I loved getting to know all the other passengers and the crew as well:) The food wasn’t great (a lot of recycled) but the schedule was perfect and we had amazing dinners in town! For the price you can’t beat this trip!!!

Superb

Perfect mix of relaxation and adventure, your choice! With breakfast and lunch (3 course) included every day and a swim stop in between (my fave part) the afternoon and evening were yours to explore the next town/island. You could choose one of the organised excursions or do your own thing. Nothing was too much trouble, the crew were the best and our tour manager Klara was the bomb!! Thank you Salve di Mare! We miss you already

Cruising in Croatia

After extensive research by both my husband and myself, we joined the Sail Croatia, Salve de Mare cruise this past September. Looking for a smaller cruising footprint with excursions was our goal and Sail Croatia did not disappoint. From the date of our embarking to our final day with our new international friends and a wonderful crew, our adventure was just that... a true adventure! We would definitely recommend Sail Croatia to our friends, co-workers and family members! Adventure awaits with Sail Croatia!

Great exploration on relaxing yacht!

I must start off by giving a big round of applause to our group leader, Vin, who prepped us everyday to let us know what to expect and where to go when we were sure and arrange all the excursions including the free ones. For those who love the water, the swim stops were amazing, the water extremely blue and clear and it was so much fun. We really enjoyed all the ports, and all of the people were so friendly. We met people from all over the world and it was awesome. Getting to know each other on board the ship. The food was awesome and plenty of it! It was a wonderful vacation and we would gladly do it again! Thanks a bunch, Gina and Janna

Exceptional

Our Sail Croatia cruise from Split to Dubrovnik exceeded our expectations. The crew were approachable, friendly, accommodating, happy and kind. Our boat was beautifully appointed and kept so well. Our tour organiser, Anita, was very organised, communicated about our plans for each day so well , and she was fun! Many excursions were available, and the daily swim stops such a highlight. When the weather meant a change in plans, alternatives were organised. We loved meeting others on our boat, and especially loved dancing at the Captain’s dinner. Thank you to the Captain and Crew for creating a memorable holiday.

Fantastic Yacht Cruise

Great size yacht with 38 passengers! We thoroughly enjoyed the swim stops followed by exploring the various ports. Anita was our lovely cruise director who was always smiling and checking in on her passengers to see how they were enjoying the cruise. The food was delicious too! Great time shared w many new friends!

- Barbara, 07/10/2025 10:01, Travelled with Family

Wonderful Vacation

This cruise checked all the boxes! From the moment we stepped on to the boat until the moment we stepped off, we did not have one complaint. The itinerary was perfect, food was delicious, a good balance of down time and touring, swim stops were fun, and the most wonderful crew! And Anita was the perfect tour director!

Split to Dubrovnik September 2025

Sailed on the beautiful boat Salve di mare. My home for for 7 nights. Above and beyond my expectations. The boat and crew were impeccable and made us feel welcome. The weather wasn't kind to us every day but all efforts were made to keep us happy. Off shore excursions were varied and there was something for everyone. All round a wonderful time and my only suggestion would be to stock up on more breakfast teabags . I hope to travel again with Sail Croatia.

Incredible Experience

This cruise was better than we even anticipated. The crew was great, very responsive, personable, and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious; every meal was expertly prepared and what you’d expect from a 5-Star restaurant. Weather required that we pivot from the original schedule but the captain and the guide made sure we had good alternatives for swimming and exploring. Highly recommend this trip.

- Sharon, 06/10/2025 08:08, Travelled in a Couple

Did not disappoint!

Fantastic Journey!

I had an amazing and unforgettable experience on my Sail Croatia Explorer trip from Dubrovnik to Split. The accommodations were just as I’d hoped, the food was plentiful, fresh, and delicious, and the crew went above and beyond to make sure everyone had a fantastic time. In particular, our cruise guide, Dino, was outstanding—sharing endless insights about the islands, activities, excursions, and even the best restaurants to try. I’ll gladly recommend Sail Croatia to family and friends and look forward to booking another trip with this customer-focused company in the future.

Disappointed with food quality and outdoor deck furniture availability

Improve breakfast offerings, variety and presentation. Offer better quality coffee and tea options. Communication with passengers and kitchen waiting staff. Improve lunch offerings, more vegetables, and meat quality and variety. Serve tables with waiters offering drinks. Have coffee and tea making available during day with biscuits etc The discussion of itinerary to be held prior to lunch service. No smoking on ship for passengers and crew. Provide equal number of deck chairs to passengers. We had 10 deck chairs for 36 passengers and I witnessed a passenger confrontation Set outdoor furniture up for passenger comfort prior to breakfast service

Salve di Mare - Dubrovnik to Split Cruise

The trip was wonderful! Klara was incredibly knowledgable about the areas we were visiting and super helpful to give recommendations. The crew were well equipped in making sure all passengers had a safe and enjoyable cruise from port to port. The chefs made delicious meals for us each day and the bartenders were a delight, always willing to serve with a smile, despite their long hours and early mornings! My husband and i would highly recommend this trip to others.

- Brittini, 29/09/2025 10:00, Travelled in a Couple

Not to be missed

We chose Sail Crotia for the small size of the ship and passenger count. I have always been attracted to Croatia and this was the perfect opportunity to get an intimate look. The ship, the Salve d’ Mar was lovely. Well kept, modern and spacious. Our staff was friendly accommodating and fun. The tour director Klara was i i formative and fun. Although we preferred a top deck cabin our lower deck was perfect. Comfortable bed, nice size bath and hot showers. We would highly recommend the Sail Crotia line and this ship specifically

Exceptional!

We travelled from Dubrovnik to Split on the Salve Di Mare in early September. The crew (Vlaho, Marko and Monika) were attentive and friendly and excellent at their jobs. The kitchen staff were brilliant producing delicious 3 course lunches on a daily basis! Vicko was a fabulous guide and was approachable and informative. The boat was luxurious and the activities were great, although the swim stops in the secluded bays were a highlight for me! Our fellow shipmates from around the world were wonderful, making for an exceptional holiday!

- Angela, 29/09/2025 00:19, Travelled with Friend/s

Fantastic loved every minute

The crew looked after us so well. A big mention goes to our tour host Klara, and bar staff Blaze & Marco. Also Monica along with the Captain and sailors made our experience fun, enjoyable, and personal. The meals prepared by the chefs were delicious. Moving between the islands and docking at each port was done with great precision. Our swim stops were unforgettable.
