Fantastic trip, made more amazing by our crew!

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

Trip Of a Lifetime

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

Sail Croatia, Dubrovnik to Split

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

The Beautiful Katarina

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

Best Vacation Ever!

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

Salve Di Mare

An absolutely stunning week, our guide for the week Lola and all the staff onboard were fantastic. We can't imagine having a better week.

Romantic Island Hopping

Beautiful Adriatic nature, friendly people, special credit to our amazing and dependable skipper Dino who made the trip effortless, fun , relaxing, and enjoyable and was very professional and safe captain Dino was helpful in planning the trip through the different islands and marinas.. we can't wait for next summer to sail with him again and discover and explore more islands and exotic swimming locations. The boat Marica was clean , fast , with AC conditioned cabin, kitchen multiple cabins, and comfortable beds with clean sheets and pillows.. Fresh and clean towels were supplied.. the grocery was preordered and delivered before check in.. the ACI split marina was a good choice to start and end the journey with full facilities. The Adriatic cuisine is delicious and various specially the grilled octopus and beef cheeks. almost all people speak and understand fluent English.. All in all this was our first time with Sail croatia and definitely not the last. looking forward to next Summer.

The best week made even better with Saša and the crew

Me and my partner had the best week on the boat. The weather was amazing. The swim stops were incredible and we wish there were more hours in a day for them. What really made our time awesome was Saša and the crew. Saša made sure everyone felt welcome and included on the boat, and cracked the funniest jokes all week. He had so much knowledge about everywhere we went, and made sure that we had the best week possible with all of his recommendations and tours of the towns. No problem was too big or small - there really wasn’t any anyway because he was always two steps ahead. Now the crew, Harlem and Marlin were the sweetest bar staff ever, getting to know us and cracking jokes throughout the week. Chef cooked incredible meals everyday and you could tell was very proud of his work. Although we didn’t see the captain and sailors often, when we did they were always extremely friendly and I could tell they were hard working to get us to our stops. Thank you for the best week Saša and crew!

Relaxing trip

Dino was an amazing guide. We were always well informed about what was happening and recommendations both in the lunch briefing and in the group chat. He was always available if you had any questions. The food was amazing and the crew were friendly and efficient.

Amazing trip!

Cruising with sail Croatia was the perfect mix of relaxing and adventure. Our boat, the Tempura, was great and Anita, our sail Croatia representative, made everything so easy! She sent us recommendations at every stop that were all amazing and made all of the logistics with excursions so easy. You could tell she really cared about everyone having the best trip possible! Our itinerary changed due to some weather but she still able to coordinate everything perfectly!

Brilliant trip on Esparanza 27/7/25 to 3/8/25

From meeting Vedran, our Tour Manager, who looked after us throughout with fantastic knowledge of all locations we visited, to the ships crew and Captain Vlado who kept us safe throughout, we loved our trip starting in Split and sailing down to Dubrovnik, visiting various islands on the way. experiencing swim stops, superb restaurants and wine. Special mention to Martina & Mio who looked after in restaurant/bar and housekeeping were always friendly and efficient throughout. Would definitely recommend this trip and all the staff on Esperanza that looked after us

Split to Dubrovnik

Our sail was excellent. The entire crew were awesome the whole week. Toni was our leader and he was knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, and we all had such a great time. Couldn’t fault anything. Thank you Toni & the crew. You were all excellent. :)

Awesome sail

We had such an amazing sail through the beautiful archipelago of Dalmatia. Our captain Anna took us to the perfect spots for dinner, and recommended the whole itinerary.. we completely took her advice on everything and my wife said it was the best vacation of her life! Out hostess Daniel was an amazing chef cooking meals based on local tradition, who always had a joke on hand. He created an atmosphere of fun light-hearted conversation, we brought a bunch of games and never even got the opportunity to play them because we were always having so much fun! I highly recommend Anna and Daniel as the perfect crew!

Hound Dog top notch and crew even better

We spent a week with Sail Croatia on the catamaran Hound Dog with another couple and had an outstanding experience with our crew, Mickey and Jo. The boat was fantastic. The air conditioning was cold, the showers were hot, and the beds were more comfortable than the hotel we stayed in afterward. Everything was clean, spacious for a boat, and well set up. Mickey and Jo built a great itinerary around the weather and what we wanted to do. Jo’s cooking was excellent, coffee on point. We felt completely taken care of and were able to settle into island time. Highly recommend this boat and crew. Fun, lux, and exactly what we were hoping for. Ready to plan the next trip.

Zaramaris

The whole crew on the Zaramaris was professional and great! It made our experience fun and very memorable. The chef Ana made incredible food and not only was it very filling but so delicious! It was an experience of a lifetime and would love to do it again one day! Thank you!!!

Esperanza

It was a lovely spacious ship with generous cabins. Days spent after breakfast relax on deck , swim stop which was so good. Three course lunch followed by more relaxing. Then shower and out to explore on shore. Food was generally good and staff were very helpful .

Sail Croatia was amazinggggg

Our travel guide Hana! She has a great ability to read the group and provided so many different options and included for everyone’s needs, even if that was for more dinner options, medical ect.

Pure relaxation

We did an elegance cruise on the Romantic Star and everything about our cruise was perfect. The captain and crew were amazing, very professional and so hard working to make our cruise so enjoyable. Our tour manager Ioana was fabulous and did an excellent job. We only had a small number on our cruise so the service was extra special and very personal. The daily swim stops were a highlight. I highly recommend Sail Croatia!!

Incredible Experience Aboard Mali Ante with Sail Croatia

We had an amazing week on Mali Ante with Sail Croatia. The whole experience exceeded our expectations. The boat was spotless, our cabin was spacious, and the comfy deck chairs on the top deck were perfect for relaxing. The crew were fantastic, especially Mario, who went above and beyond for my gluten-free needs and always had a smile on his face. The chef’s meals were incredible and tasted like a gourmet meals. Our guide Lola was full of great tips and went above and beyond. We were lucky to have such a fun group onboard. We made genuine friends. The first couple of days brought bad weather, but it didn’t dampen the trip. The captain quickly adjusted the route for safety and enjoyment, choosing to stay longer in a town with more to do. A great call which was clearly explained.. The swim stops, beautiful islands, and ending in Dubrovnik made it unforgettable. We’d absolutely recommend the Explorer Cruise on Mali Ante, the perfect mix of relaxation, adventure, and great people.

Sanja was amazing!

Sanja is such a lovely girl and very informative and gave great advice and recommendations. The food was very very average (some meals below average) and but I give a 5 star because of Sanja and the group of people we travelled with.

Amazing Locations on a wonderful boat

We really enjoyed our time on the Salve Di Mare. The locations we visited were beautiful! Absolutely stunning. Our cruise director Dino was friendly and informative. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I wouldn't say anyone went above and beyond though. The rooms were nice and always cleaned well. The cruise is expensive and we really do not believe that is was worth the price we paid. The food was average at best. Well cooked, but boring. Breakfast was front 8 -9.30 with zero flexibility. No food or options for food is offered between breakfast and lunch. So if you miss breakfast, bad luck. Lunch was a 3 course meal and although I eat everything, my partner doesn't eat fish and instead received a piece of 'stuffed' half zucchini instead. During swim stops, which were again, stunning! While on the top deck reading a book, no one ever came up to ask if you'd like a drink! I found that the most puzzling. Wouldn't you want to make money?! Hard to give 3 stars, we loved it!

Great week with Sail Croatia

The crew onboard were amazing and Marin made our stay welcoming. His team delivered a great experience and I would definitely recommend this to friends!

Fantastic!!!

I had a fantastic sail Croatia experience this past week. Our tour guide Marin was extremely helpful and knowledgeable about the islands we traveled to and and gave some fantastic recommendations in the places we were. Would certainly recommend!

- James, 01/08/2025 15:48, Travelled in a Couple

10/10 experience

My partner and I did the navigator cruise, we got very lucky with Marin as our host and all the crew on the boat were super lovely too, and our bartender Matej made the best cocktail jugs! We had a clear and concise plan texted to us each day, informing us of breakfast and lunch times, activities, swim stop durations, and any relevant updates. (This was super helpful for me as I’m a planner and I love structure but there was also lots of time for spontaneity and free time). We were also texted restaurant and bar recommendations for each city, as Marin stated he had been working in his role for a long time he knew all the best spots to go and shared this knowledge making our experience even better. During our trip my partner and I got sick and Marin took us to a tourist Dr to get some antibiotics, we also had a freak storm and our room flooded with rain, Marin the legend put us in a hotel for the night, while the crew worked to fix our room which was fixed and ready the next day.

Toni

My sail experience was one to made to remember through our rep Toni. Toni did a fantastic job at making sure all of us sailors were happy and knew what the approach was for each day. All of his work made the trip much more enjoyable.

Romantic Star - Wine Tasting Experience

The Croatian Coast and Islands are stunning and it was very fitting to experience the coastline and surrounding islands in such a beautiful boat, The Romantic Star The Crew and Captain were very professional, polite , helpful and friendly. The boat was kept spotless and the quality of food was to a very high standard. A lot of thought had gone into our experience as it went by as smoothly as the calmness of the Adriatic. Swimming off the back of the boat in crystal waters and stunning backdrops was a daily highlight. The Captain always seemed to find a wonderful secluded spot, there was crew at hand to ensure everyone’s safety. The wine experience meant that we were taken inland to lovely vineyards, providing us to witness landscapes within the islands and to experience local and delicious wines. All our ventures and experiences were brought together by our amazing tour manager Ivana. Ivana was very thoughtful , insightful, enthusiastic and caring and a credit to Sail Croatia.

Trip of a lifetime!

Our experience on Sail Croatia was nothing short of a trip of a lifetime! 7 days exploring the coast of Croatia, surrounded by beautiful staff and guests, local, fresh food every day, the bluest of waters for your swim stops and elegant rooms and facilities! Captain Gordan and his team ensure your experience on Kraljica Jelena is one you will never forget. If there were an option to stay longer on that boat we would have in a heartbeat! My partner and I got engaged during our stay and our time on Sail Croatia will now forever hold a special place in our hearts. We wanted to thank each and every team member for their efforts and attention to detail and highly recommend this experience over sourcing your own experiences/accommodation if travelling the coast. From the bottom of our hearts pino vam hvala!

Toni

My sail croatia experience was awesome! It was an exciting week with many fun activities. Our rep, Toni was incredible! He went above and beyond for everyone, adapting to the circumstances at each island and providing us with alternative options. He was always friendly and kind and worked very hard all the time. He was a big contributor to the fun we had that week and we are very appreciative of his time and work.

Elegance Cruise June 2025

The whole experience exceeded our expectations. We thought that lunches were of fine dining quality. The balance of on-board versus port side time was wonderful as was the freedom to explore on our own. The whole crew was very friendly, and our fellow travelers were a delight. Our tour Director Anita was quite simply fantastic - great suggestions for places to visit and to dine and very personable. Thank You!

Amazing Week Aboard Queen Jelena

We just finished an amazing week aboard the Queen Jelena elegance cruise. The boat was beautiful and the crew were very friendly and helpful. Our guide Ivana went above and beyond for the guests and was very knowledgeable about each beautiful island we stopped at. The food was delicious and staff Pamela and Emma were wonderful. Would highly recommend!

Once in a Lifetime Experince

There is truly not enough space for me to explain how phenomenal this trip was! If you are even considering Croatia as a destination, CHOOSE THIS CRUISE! The guide was knowledgable and thorough, but FUN! The food was fresh and top tier every onboard meal. The skills of the Captain were literally awe inspiring. The housekeeping was tidy, homey and love filled. The drinks were extremely tasty, but the bartenders were attentive, entertaining and always on point. The excursions were full of adventure and breathtaking beauty - and the friends we met wile on the ship will hopefully be a part of our lives forever. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS EXPERIENCE ENOUGH. BOOK IT!.

A Must Do In Croatia

We had the most amazing time sailing with Sail Croatia! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The boat was surprisingly spacious — the rooms were much larger than we imagined for a boat, and everything was spotless throughout the trip. The food was absolutely delicious. But what truly made the trip unforgettable was the staff on this trip. Huge shoutout to our fantastic guide Klara, who was knowledgeable, helpful, and always full of positive energy. We also want to give a special thanks to Christina, Ceaser, Marcos, and Evan — the most upbeat, friendly, and professional crew we could have asked for. Their good vibes and incredible service truly elevated our whole experience. We’ll 100% be back for another Sail Croatia adventure. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and memorable sailing holiday!

One of my best holidays ever

We spent an idyllic week on the Salve di Mare touring the islands and I can honestly say it was one of the best holidays I’ve ever taken. The group was fantastic with so many laughs, jokes, and boat jumps at our daily swim stop. The boat is beautiful, comfortable, and well maintained. The crew outdid themselves - fantastic service from Marco and Vlaho, and food from Arijan and Tina, expert sailing from Duje and Mario, led by Frane, plus everything kept ship shape by Monika. And we couldn’t have asked for a better tour manager in Mario. At every stop he could tell us all the best places to explore, things to do, and where to eat. I would recommend this trip to anyone -worth every penny, as it’s your hotel, breakfast, lunch, daily excursion, and transfers all rolled into one and carried out in style.

- Selena, 30/07/2025 15:25, Travelled in a Couple

The best cruise experience

The explorer cruise was the perfect decision for us! We had a wonderful time to equally relax, have fun and endlessly explore the islands. Having your accommodation, transportation and restaurant in one place is so convenient to recharge if you are in the middle of an intense long trip like ourselves. Our week with Sail Croatia was not only outstanding but it elevated our whole trip experience since we had intense travel days before and after. Our boat was the Tempera, the crew is wonderful, the chef is amazing, all lunch courses were exquisite. Nikos, our tour guide manager, was above and beyond the best, if you're traveling with him you are GUARANTEED to have the best time, he was fun and dynamic but also respectful and very knowledgeable; I traveled with my partner, who is a profesor, and we both enjoyed all the historical context Nikos provided daily, he also answered all of our questions! I also recommend taking the extra tours specially the Mljet ride and the Split/Omis Zipline!

Best trip of our life’s

We did the wines of Croatia cruise on the Esperanza our guide Vedran was amazing, all the staff where fantastic they made our experience extra special, it was my husbands 50th special birthday while we where on board and all the crew really pulled out all the stops, the places we visited where out of this world so pretty and authentic. The food was excellent, lovely buffet breakfast, three course lunch every day with authentic local cuisine, We had a daily swim stop which was not only refreshing but gave us the chance to experience the coast line from a completely different angle, paddle board made it easy explore a long way along the cost line, We made many new friends, with other guest and crew, had wonderful experiences on Esperanza, it truly was a privilege to be on board big thank you to Vedran our guide and all the Crew on board Esperanza, would highly recommend we loved it 😎

- Victoria, 29/07/2025 20:46, Travelled in a Couple

Best decision

Staff: Friendly service for creating a welcoming atmosphere. Scenery and destinations: Stunning Croatian landscapes, with opportunities to swim in crystal-clear waters and visit picturesque towns. Organization and inclusions: From the initial contact with the London office to the cruise itself, everything is well organized. The cruises feature excellent tours and helpful guidance from tour managers when exploring new destinations.

Croatian Island hopping

The ship was immaculately fitted out, crew were friendly, helpful and courteous. Food was substantial and generally good standard. But not gourmet as photography on brochures suggested. The islands were interesting and great to explore, however, a couple had very little to keep us occupied and exploring( notably Brac). Sail Croatia events coordinator was always helpful and available to help and plan for each stopover.. We felt that more entertainment in evenings even one more early on in cruise would have brought guests and crew together . The evening dinner on one of the islands was extremely disappointing, both for location and the meal itself.

- Peter, 29/07/2025 15:00, Travelled in a Couple

Best experience ever!

From the first hour, Anita and the crew on the Tempera made sure we were having a great time. Every stop was breathtaking with multiple opportunities for swims and excursions without feeling rushed. This is an unmissable opportunity - definitely book! Thank you so much to Anita and the Tempera for making our trip the best it could possibly be - the team really made it excellent.

Sail Croatia Elegance tour on the Queen Jelena

Everything about our time on the Queen Jelena was perfect from start to finish. Our rooms were cleaned daily. The crew were extremely polite. The captain actually cared about his passengers and making our experience as memorable as possible. Drinks were very reasonably priced. Ivana was our tour guide and she went above and beyond for her customers. No question was too silly to be answered and she was very knowledgeable about everywhere we visited. Ivana even gave us advice about things to to after our elegance tour. I would highly recommend a trip on the Queen Jelena with the fantastic crew including Ivana.

- John, 29/07/2025 10:52, Travelled in a Couple

Highly Recommend

The cruise was amazing and the staff were great. Mario and Marlo were brilliant, as were the rest of the staff. The islands were perfect and a great balance of people on board.
