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!!!

This holiday ex exceeded expectations. The itinerary, guides and information, cycling, food, boat, the attractions and the group were all fantastic. It had been recommended to me but it was even better than I expected.

We had a fantastic holiday on a Sail Croatia cycling cruise. It really is the best way to see the islands. The guides are professional and informative. I would advise booking an above deck room. It is also worthwhile knowing that you won’t cycle through/visit Hvar Town due to the island not allowing bike tours in there so consider visiting here before or after your cruise. We loved the whole trip and met some great people.

We had such an amazing experience with Sail Croatia,and Ante, our skipper, was absolutely fantastic and really made the trip special. He planned everything so well and took us to places we never would have found on our own. We went bike riding through Mljet national park, swam in the most beautiful crystal-clear water, and visited gorgeous beaches and little hidden spots along the way we would never have even known about. We originally planned on booking a different Sail Croatia boat, but our niece didn’t meet the age requirement. In the end, we’re so glad it worked out that way because having our own private catamaran made the trip even more special. Our whole family agreed we would do this again in a heartbeat. And when we do, we definitely want Ante as our skipper again! Such an unforgettable way to experience beautiful Croatia and see places we never would have seen had it not been for this booking. Thankyou Sail Croatia and Ante! I will definitely be recommending you!!! 😎🇭🇷

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!

My husband and I were nervous about trying our first e-bike tour, but this trip completely blew us away! The boat was immaculate, our cabin was comfortable and quiet, and the three-course lunches were spectacular. The crew and guides were incredible—knowledgeable, safe, and exceptionally friendly. The e-bikes made riding up the island hills a breeze. Beyond the beautiful views, the best part was the lifelong friendships we made with the other 33 passengers. If it sounds too good to be true, believe me, it wasn’t. It was perfect.

This sail and hike was a live experience. The guides were great, always taking care of the group, all informations clear. The ship was good. What could have been better were the mattresses and at breakfast the coffee was not to my liking. The plases we visited were exellent. Thank you

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.

An absolutely terrific experience. The entire crew was friendly and performed wonderfully. The accommodations were near-new and and all systems worked as they should. The itinerary selected allowed the passengers to see the sights without being rushed. As a person prone to seasickness I was a a bit apprehensive when booking this, my first, cruise but not once did I experience any motion sickness…thankfully!

Excellent, we thoroughly enjoyed our Sail Croatia Cruise. Hana and the crew looked after everyone and made our cruise very relaxing. Hana informed us all about the beautiful places we were visiting giving us education on history of the towns we visited and so much more on what we could do at all the locations, she was brilliant. The crew looked after us with amazing food, drinks, beautiful swim stops and assistance with anything we needed.

We booked the Sail Croatia hiking cruise for the last week of September 2026. I honestly didn't know a lot about Croatia before our trip. We booked it on a whim after reviewing some social media posts and confirming that it fit into our budget and schedule. Everything exceeded our expectations - the cruise was great! Croatia is incredibly beautiful and we had a really good group on our boat so that made things simple. The hikes were easy as long as you are in shape. Food was excellent and the rooms and accommodations were fine. I highly recommend Sail Croatia. Our guides were Mate and Antonia. They were excellent and you'll be lucky if you have them on your trip.

We had a great experience with Sail Croatia! The boat was very nice with comfortable cabins, larger than we expected. The food was delicious. We enjoyed the company of the other passengers as well. We were very impressed with our guides Ivica and Antonio. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. We had never ridden e-bikes and they made sure we were safe and enjoyed the experience. The riding was beautiful and we were able to enjoy it all the more with such competent guides. They also shared their love of Croatia with us which truly made this a wonderful trip. We highly recommend seeing the islands this way!

My wife and I traveled through the islands of Hvar, Brac, Vis, Korkula, and Mljet with Sail Croatia. Our guide was Vicko. Vicko was quite knowledgeable and interesting as regards the individual islands, reviewing their history as far back as the period of Ancient Greek colonization. The entry into Korkula was especially amazing as the boat coursed the Adriatic between the mainland and the island. My wife and I will always remember this trip with great happiness. A beautiful place and a wonderful experience.

We had such a wonderful time on the Princeza Diana for our one week biking tour. The boat interior was recently refurbished so it was very nice and well appointed throughout. The staff was great with specific shoutouts to our tour managers Ivica and Antonio (they could also have successful careers herding cats), the servers Sanja and Danny (so friendly, kind, and helpful), and chef Marko (the food was sensational). They each really made our trip memorable by going above and beyond in their respective areas. The fellow guests from varied areas were all terrific and everyone got along incredibly well. While a custom cruise for us would have had longer rides and shorter stops, we also heard people say they wanted longer stops or shorter rides so this was a perfect balance for all. Overall it is highly recommended with zero complaints and it exceeded our expectations in every way..
- Lance, 05/10/2026 12:51, Travelled in a Couple
We were fortunate to get on the Princeza Diana for our Sail/bike Croatia trip and she did not disappoint. The boat was spectacular, the rooms were spotless with comfy beds, the food was varied and presented beautifully ( bravo Marco ) and the bar had whatever you desired. Our guides Ivica and Antonio were the best. They were able to keep all 31 of us informed of the routes each day and any areas that may be tricky. No issues with our bike and lots of power to get up the steep climbs. It was so much fun getting to know our guides and Danny and Sanja were just so sweet. This group of people are what made the trip so special from sitting with new people at meals everyday to large happy hours nightly. 20 out of 10.

I would easily rate this as a 10 out of 10 holiday! Princenza Diana ship was very clean and had a real boating vibe. But it was the staff that really made our experience exceptional. All the staff knew us by name and provided personal and professional support to our specific needs. Safety was a priority on the cycling experience and we were always properly prepared for the day’s ride. The cycling routes took us through small villages, olive groves and vineyards, on paved paths with little to no traffic. I am ready to book my next adventure with Sail Croatia 👍

Mate & Antonia were fantastic guides, the hikes were great and we were blessed with fantastic weather and calm seas. The food onboard was mostly good. The cabin was tiny however had air conditioning and an ensuite. Swim stops most days were fun. Was lovely walking around the various ports too. Croatia is a beautiful country and most of the locals speak English too.

We are avid travellers and put our week with Sail Croatia in the penthouse suite! Our guides were Mate and Antonio, and they were knowledgeable, personable and kind and thoughtful. This opinion was 100 percent shared by the group.. The hikes were well chosen, tired but enough energy to explore the beautiful towns and small cities we visited each night. Breakfast and lunch were always quality and I loved being responsible for our own dinners in the seaside communities where we moored. My wife and I made many new friends and enjoyed a fabulous week!
- cyril, 05/10/2026 04:17, Travelled with Family
We enjoyed everything about this. Getting to see so many islands and villages on those islands was fantastic. At every port our "hotel" was steps from the village centre. The food was fantastic and everyone from the bike guides to the sailors and ship staff were friendly and very hard working. The bike portion was just right with a 2-3 hour easy ride every day then lots of time to explore each town. The transit from island to island was exciting. We saw dolphins and watching coming into each port was fun. The amount of area we were able to see with the bikes made our entire trip memorable. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone!
- Michael, 04/10/2026 22:50, Travelled in a Couple
My husband and I just wrapped up an incredible 7-day cruise on the Contessa with Sail Croatia and we highly recommend it. We really enjoyed the boat itself along with the other guests and the crew! The group vibe was a fun mix of active, like-minded people. Huge praise for the crew who made the trip unforgettable. Marin (the Cruise Director) was fun and full of great local insights. As amateur boaters, we were thoroughly impressed by Captain's Slavko's navigational skills in those small coves and trusted his decisions to adjust. Thanks Joy, the bar team and Tino, the Boat Hand as well. The island stops were stunning. We enjoyed the swim stops, an ad-hoc bike ride across the island of Korcula, the village tour with a longtime resident among many. One tiny improvement - we thought there would be more active activities such as kayaking from the boat. However, that didn't take away from the great week!

The food was delicious and plentiful. Marin was our host and guide. He did a great job. He was welcoming, helpful, and full of information. He checked in regularly on how we were doing and whether we needed anything. he is very patient, friendly and calm. Our cruise on the Contessa was from September 23-30. Thank you all for making it. I truly memorable week.

Firstly, the Esperanza is not the most modern in the Sail Croatia fleet - but it it extremely well looked after and is in pristine condiition. The Captain was very friendly and engaging. And all of the 8 crew do an incredible job - they are all very focusing on deliverying outstanding customer service. Our room was very well equiped, comfortable and surprisingly spacious - and the bathroom was a great size. The boat, has plenty of deck space, to sit out in the sun and there are also plenty of shaded areas. The seating areas of the boat and large and comfortable - you never feel there is not enough space. The restaurant was set for 8 people per table. The breakfast is a buffet with plenty of options. Lunch was a fixed 3 course meal - there was also a small daily salad bar available with lunch. Internet was a. challenge onboard. The only criticism I have is that the tour leader - who was very nice and very helpful - had a focus on cash only tours and cash tips for the crew

Thank you for your detailed feedback and 4 star review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your time aboard Esperanza and particularly appreciated the Captain, crew, spacious cabins and onboard facilities. We would like to clarify that optional excursions are operated by local suppliers in Croatia, with cash being their preferred payment method. Similarly, while crew gratuities are entirely optional, cash is the method used onboard should guests wish to leave a tip. Thank you again for travelling with us and for recognising the fantastic service provided by the Esperanza crew.
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.

Absolutely incredible, even with the weather not as warm as we'd hoped, the skipper, mate, the old towns, and everywhere the skipper recommended were amazing! Linda knew all the right spots, stops, and could park the Julie like it was a Volkswagon Bug, even in the wind. Our mate, Iona, cooked some amazing meals as well, took inventory of what we liked to eat, and shopped at each spot to cater to our needs. All-time family trip!

We cruised with two other couples in late September on the Contessa and it was absolutely awesome! The weather was perfect. The food was great. The other travelers were so much fun and our tour director Marin went over and above to make our time incredible. Be flexible - we couldn't do Vela Luka and we didn't get to dock in Split but we were able to take an Uber there from Trogir for several hours and Makarska was a great substitute port.

Marin our main man coordinated everything we did. Excursions, swim stops anything and everything, if you needed anything he could arrange it. From Dubrovnik to Split via some amazing places shared with others from around the world who are now friends like I said would be hard to top. Thanks everyone.

We had a fabulous bunch of people who are more like family now and everyone was up for a great experience. Our itinerary was altered but the captain made decisions only to enhance our adventure. Our swim stops were magic in the bluest of blue water. Joy & Petra were absolute sweeties and Nano would always make sure we were happy and had what we needed. Tino & Charlie worked non stop maintaining the boat and the food couldn’t not have been better or more varied by Bane & Marlo. 5 stars all round, would definitely recommend

We booked the Explorer cruise aboard the Contessa for our honeymoon, and it was truly the experience of a lifetime. The ship was beautiful, the Croatian coast was breathtaking, and every stop seemed better than the last. What made the trip truly unforgettable were the people. We were blown away by how welcoming, kind, and gracious the Croatian people and the entire Contessa crew were. A huge shoutout to Captain Slavko, Petra, Neno, Tino, Charlie, Joy, Kristijana, Zeljana, Bane, and Marko. Every member of the crew went above and beyond to make us feel at home and by the end of the week they felt more like friends than crew. Our tour manager, Marin is truly the best of the best. His energy, personality, knowledge, and genuine care for everyone onboard made an already amazing trip even better. If Marin is working your cruise you’ve won the lottery! We couldn’t have imagined a better honeymoon. We made lifelong memories and friendships that we’ll carry with us always. BOOK THE TRIP!!!

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.

We had a wonderful week boating and biking; note the use of the word boating vs sailing. There were no sails and I was somewhat disappointed and I think the company should make this clear from the onset! That said, it was a great experience. Staff was exceptional, food was really good and we had an exceptional chef who clearly loves what he does. I would have loved to have biked longer routes or maybe a couple of rides offered per day to the overzealous types on board Great way to see the coast, visit some amazing historical sites, all without packing/unpacking frequently. Highly recommend this outfit for cruising, swimming and biking the Dalmatian coast. Weather was beautiful all week !!!

We just had a week on Sail Croatia’s ship Columbus & a biking tour through a small sample of the stunning Dalmatian coasts islands. Although a little apprehensive to start, Marin & Lauren, our fantastic guides, settled us all right in. They shared a load of local knowledge & ensured our bike route was challenging in sections but safe & hugely enjoyable – absolutely recommend an e-bike. The scenery is stunning & photos don’t do it justice. Our group started as 32 strangers but quickly turned to 32 friends, with sooo many laughs. Along with the guides, the crew & chefs were amazing turning our great meals & looking after us along the way. The trip absolutely exceeded our expectations & would thoroughly recommend.

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 rides were challenging since I didn’t have an e-bike but I had lots of support from everyone. Be aware there are many climbs at 10% and a few easy rides with easier hills.

Everything about the cruise and bike riding was five star. Two guides Mario and Natasha were also five star. Food was great although could have had more fish. Captain and boat crew were also great. Getting to know my fellow Canadians, Americans, Aussies and Irish was an hoot. Every one got along great and best part ZERO politics! Only complaint was our lower deck berth as it was very small and stuffy. I ended up coming down with a bad cold and the lower quarters likely made it worse. Book early and pay the up charge for a upper deck berth.

We had a fantastic time cruising the beautiful Dalmatian islands. The crew of Salve di Mare was wonderful and took care of us at all times. Thank you , Toma !

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.

Simply lovely! A great week with a wonderful crew! Definitely an experience that we would recommend and we might even consider doing another cruise with Sail Croatia in the future.

We had the most amazing week aboard the Princesza Diana and were very impressed with both Josip and Simun who were engaging, entertaining and professional, making our comfort and safety a priority. The ship was lovely, our room more spacious than we expected. The e-bikes were comfortable, although not the Fire brand we expected but they did the job and fitted to our size . We would have preferred slightly more cycling and shorter coffee stops but that’s personal preference. The itinerary of the Split southern loop was very beautiful and all the stops were made better by great recommendations from Josip and Simun. We were also very impressed with the food and service on board. Our room was kept clean and fresh . Sanya in the lounge bar was a credit to the ship, very engaged and charming to all the guests. We would definitely recommend to friends and family.

What a wonderful trip we had! Our time on the boat (Olimp), was one of the most relaxing vacations I have ever had! The ship was so comfortable and the crew was outstanding. From our director, Lola to our captain, George, our servers, Ellie and Linda, the chefs and all the crew, we were in very capable hands. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic. It was truly the best way to see Croatia!

An amazing week sailing the islands of Croatia! From the small island towns to the swim stops to the excursions; Salve made every day a new adventure. The Croatian people are very welcoming and each stop was more beautiful than the next. Weather was absolutely amazing which certainly helped. What pulled it all together was the crew of this boat. The captain was an expert sailor. We felt safe on the sea and his docking skills are amazing. So fun to watch! The variety of food each day was great. How’d they manage to make so much back in that tiny kitchen?! Rooms were well appointed and taken care of nicely. The deck crew was friendly, knowledgable and professional. Our Rep kept us busy and informed every day. Always there to answers to questions and give us great recommendations at every port. Thank you the staff aboard: Frane : our captain - Toma: our Representative - Richie and Tome our sailors - Marco and Vlaho our waiters/bartenders- Rojan and Elana our chefs-Julija our maid

My wife and I arrived in Dubrovnik 3 days before the cruise. We settled into the local time zone and thoroughly enjoyed the fortified town. We had only been on one previous cruise - on a huge ship. We found the small boat with about 35 guests a lovely size - allowing for some “getting to know” each other that didn’t happen on the big cruise ship. The boat is fantastic. We saw more modern boats but felt no envy. This boat is elegant with its beautiful polished wood. The room was more spacious than we expected, and never jostling for spots to sit/enjoy in the common areas. The stops along the way were delightful, beautiful, interesting. The food was absolutely excellent. Only complaint is about my own lack of restraint!! Our leader, Vedran, was entertaining as all heck. Fun to watch/listen to. Thank you!!
- Paul, 29/09/2026 08:24, Travelled in a Couple
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.

We travelled as a group of two couples (myself, my husband, and my parents) and we had a beautiful week sailing on Esperanza. The swim stops were wonderful, all the islands were beautiful, and the organisation was top notch. I would highly recommend a trip like this. Special mention to the crew and to Klara our representative for all their patience with us.

Our time on the Romantic Star was great. Peter & I enjoyed it all, Vicko our rep was incredibly knowledgeable & friendly while also professional, the staff were there when needed & nothing requested was a problem. From swim stops to tours, (some tours better than others), it was all enjoyed while making friends along the way. My only regret was not writing down the name of the chef on board so I could personally thank her & publicly speak her name & of her talents in the kitchen, her food was excellent!
- Margaret, 29/09/2026 05:26, Travelled with Family
Absolutely loved this cruise. Relaxing pace, great staff and crew, The meals were great and they accommodated our no seafood request. The Olimp is a beautiful ship for this style of cruising and we had wonderful guests sharing our cruise with us.

We chose Sail Croatia’s Elegance trip - Split Return South, in Sept 2026, and it was splendid! The Olimp is a beautiful, spotless ship, and the food and service aboard were both excellent. Anita, our Sail Croatia tour director was awesome, and kept us informed about our ports of call, what to see, available excursions, where to dine, and she even made reservations. First Class service all the way! The Dalmatian Coast from Split to Dubrovnik is magnificent, and they take you to so many wonderful towns and natural oases in between them. The other great part of our trip was the many friends we made with our fellow travelers - so many interesting people from all over the world. We had a marvelous vacation and look forward to our next Sail Croatia adventure!

Our Sail Croatia cruise was an incredible experience from start to finish! Amazing Cruise and Crew. The beautiful destinations, great food, fun atmosphere, and wonderful people made the trip truly memorable. We loved exploring Croatia by boat and meeting people from all over the world. The crew was friendly and helpful, and every day brought something new. We would recommend and even definitely do it again! ⛵️❤️

Whether we just struck gold on this particular boat but this was the most perfect holiday. Our group were all of similar ages & abilities and we'd all opted for e-bikes so the pace didn't stretch anyone and Cal kept us all safe & thoroughly informed. His enthusiasm & friendliness was infectious, Cal you are a credit to the company! Sasha was the other half of the dynamic duo, telling us stories about his beautiful country which he is so knowledgeable and proud of. He was on hand at any time to keep us all happy and certainly performed his role to perfection. The rest of the crew carried out their duties without fuss or drama and the captain was exceptional, even retuning to port at one stage when the weather turned & only set off again when the conditions were safe, thank you. The chef was a magician, the food was better than most restaurant meals that we experienced. Plus we weren't expecting such lavish breakfasts, well done Hope to return in the near future, bravo all

The entire Salve Di Mare crew was incredible and took great pride in everything they did! We thoroughly enjoyed our week aboard - food was excellent and our below deck room was very comfortable. Marco and Vlaho were fantastic behind the bar and in the dining room - and Richi was always working hard but also always took the time to say hello to us with a genuine smile. We were able to relax, enjoy the Beaty of Croatia and laugh the entire week.

My partner and I had an absolute blast on Sail Croatia, the crew was amazing and very accommodating plus the boat was great! Our Sail Croatia rep Joel was awesome, very friendly and fun and had answers to all of our questions.. he also gave us some information on each place we stopped at and recommendations which we enjoyed and couldn’t have asked for a better rep to do the week with! Would highly recommend to anyone.

Highly recommend if you love to have fun, chill, drink, relax, drink, do some adventure activities, drink and have a laugh. Amazing views of the islands, cute little stop offs in coves for jumping of the boat and swimming. Captain was so funny and the sail rep was an absolute legend. Definitely more for younger people. I went with my partner and you will have fun single or not there's something for everyone

We had the experience of a lifetime on our boat Mlini with the amazing crew of Milan, Frane, Marko and Mateo that looked after us so well. Augustin was our tour leader and he was the best person we could have asked for! He put so much effort into planning everything for us, and telling us all about the places we were exploring and he even got Club Deep in Makarska to stay open one more night for us so we could experience it! He did an incredible job and we were so lucky to have him :) Would definitely recommend doing Sail Croatia, it was the best part of our Europe trip!
- Bec, 27/09/2026 20:47, Travelled in a Couple
We cannot believe how lucky we were to end up with such a great crew and group on Sail Croatia! Host Augustin (or Tin Tin as we called him) was a pleasure to deal with before we even got on the boat. From Day 1 he made all 23 of us feel welcome and made sure no one was left out. He explained the history of every location we visited, organised activities and dinners for the entire group when we couldn’t decide, and was always available to answer questions or fix any issues with our cabins. By the end of the week, he had brought an entire ship of strangers together as friends thanks to his hard work. Bartender Mateo was always attentive and he would be serving you within 3 seconds of putting your hand up for a drink. He was also always willing to clean up spills without complaint when things got rowdy. Marko the Chef was an amazing cook, and breakfast and lunch were always delicious! Tin Tin and the crew of Mlini rock, and future groups will be lucky to be served by them!

This trip on board the ship Contessa was an experience me and my husband will never forget!!! The activities director, Calum (Cal) was a GEM!! If anyone needed something, he was always on it. He was a joy to everyone of us! He was full of information, really fun to be around, kind, not lacking in personality- I think we got the best of the best!! The whole crew was AMAZING!!! The rooms were beautifully done! The whole ship had recently been remodeled and it was perfect. The islands we visited were breathtaking and we couldn’t have been on this ship with better passengers either!! What a FUN group!!! It seems like we became family and it was really hard to say goodbye, in fact I got teary. We didn’t want it to end!!! We LOVED EVERYTHING about those 7 VERY SPECIAL days!!! Thank you for this incredible experience!!

This was an amazing trip! Everyone on the crew was wonderful! Sasa was the best, He kept us updated on the details of each day and did everything to make us happy and comfortable. His knowledge and passion for his country showed as we toured the islands! Calum was great. He gave detailed descriptions of our bike rides and what to expect. They both made the trip extra fun.. when weather affected our rides, Calum and Sasa made sure we were notified and new plans made. The entire crew was attentive and friendly. We loved every minute of the trip and the enthusiasm from the crew made it extra special. Croatia is beautiful!!

Fabulous. Lots of exercise for sure. We are regular cyclists and found some of the hills gruelling as we were on regular bikes. Would actually recommend ebike rental as 80per cent of group had them. The crew was very friendly and food was delicious. If you like to be active this is the vacation for you.

Where do I even begin! My cousin and I booked our Sail Croatia trip not knowing what to expect, and it turned out to be an absolutely incredible experience! A huge part of that was thanks to the wonderful Joel (JT). His service, knowledge and genuine care for every guest were outstanding. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and he made everyone feel so welcome, comfortable and included throughout the entire sail. I’m a Village Manager in the mining industry, working in hospitality, so I certainly know great service when I see it -and JT is truly exceptional. More than just an amazing host, JT made a genuine impact on me personally. He encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone, try new things and make the most of every moment. I’m incredibly grateful for the memories and the positive impact he had on my trip. Sail Croatia is very lucky to have someone like JT. Thank you for making our experience unforgettable! ❤️⛵️

What an experience. We were looked after from the time we made our reservations till we disembarked. The staff were extremely friendly and always ready to assist onboard.

Thank you to all the staff and Captain of the boat, everyone was bery helpful and upbeat, nothing was to much trouble. Our guides Calum and Sasa were amazing everything ran perfectly, they were a great double act kept us smiling and laughing the whole week. Kept us on schedule and safe every ride, we loved Sasa’s local history stories!! The optional excursions were fun and worth doing , it was great to go out with the group. The electric bikes were high quality, well maintained and easy to operate. Croatia is beautiful, we loved all the Islands we visited. We would certainly travel with sale Croatia again.

Just finished a week in the Adriatic island hoping on the Contessa. Immersed ourselves in the history, the culture, new acquaintances and of course the clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. Walks along the ancient water fronts, dinners in quaint seaside restaurants, slow cruising on the MV contessa and all being looked after by our crew. We can not thank the crew enough for making our journey that extra bit special. Marin our tour guide always keeping us informed of the day ahead, Nano and Petra our table service and drinks crew, the Captain, Tino and Charlie for keeping the boat pointing in the right direction and making sure of a safe passage, Joy for servicing our rooms to the highest standard and the many behind the scenes crew for our meals and boat management. I highly recommend the Contessa and her crew if you are ever considering an Adriatic small cruise.

Captain Antonio and his crew of Columbo kept us safe as we navigated between ports and unloaded/loaded bikes. The tuna steak for the Captain’s dinner was fantastic! The views were outstanding. Lauren and Marin were excellent, they kept us safe on the roads and gave us a good idea of what to expect each day and gave us Croatian history lessons - each island was unique and special. Lauren gave us a wide variety of things to do and places to eat on each one. Thanks to Yakov for his great service at the bar - cheers! Special thanks to Mike for his leadership 😀 The highlight of the week was all of our fellow bikers. We had an awesome group that was fun to get to know and enjoy some meals, drinks, swims, and rides. Special shout out to our own Karaoke night and especially Alice and the other new songs! The meals were really good, and they went above and beyond for gluten free pescatarian. The accommodations worked well for us, didn’t spend much time in our cabin except to shower/sleep.

We had such a great week on the Contessa. The daily swim stops in the crystal clear water were a highlight. Also renting bikes on the islands to explore and swim. The boat is beautiful and the rooms so spacious. Loved the upper deck with lots of room to sit and relax. Highly recommend this boat and gong in September for comfortably warm weather. The staff really made the experience wonderful. Marin, our Sail Croatia rep, made sure everything was taken care of and that we had the best time. Thanks to Joy, Petra, Neno, Tino and Charlie for your friendly smiles and for making sure we had everything we needed!

Special thanks to Lauren and Marin for keeping us safe and comfortable on the rides while making each day special with our daily island "storytime with Lauren" as Marin proudly shared his extensive knowledge of the islands and history of Croatia. Their suggestions for things to do and dining options were greatly appreciated. We’ll have wonderful memories of Croatia and this amazing adventure for years to come!

This was one of the best vacations we have taken. The combination of biking through the islands with amazing tour guides Saša and Callum, sailing on Mali Luka with skilled crew and Captain Ivan, eating fabulous authentic Croatian food prepared by chef Neno, and relaxing with new friends….perfection!

We did the navigator cruise (w ensuite) and had an amazing 7 days onboard Mlini. We were so blessed with an awesome group and an amazing boat crew (Captain, Mateo, Frane & Marco). The highlight of the cruise was by far our AMAZING, FABULOUS and BEAUTIFUL guide Tin Tin 🫶❤️ Tin Tin’s knowledge of everywhere we went including suggestions of places to eat, dance or explore was next level. Tin Tin was such a positive vibe the entire trip and everyone most definitely fell in love with him, he is an absolute superstar and Sail Croatia are extremely lucky to have Tin Tin. This was my second Sail Croatia cruise and I can honestly say I will never forget this one. Friendships, memories, the crew onboard and my brother Tin Tin made it all an unforgettable cruise and I cannot recommend enough. 100/10 ⭐️

We had such an amazing week on the Navigator! We met some of our newest best friends along the way, which made the whole experience even more special. The crew were incredible and always there whenever we needed anything, a huge shoutout to Tin Tin and Mateo! 🫶🏼 The swim stops were so much fun, and we loved all the excursions too. This was my second time on the Mlini boat, and it’s safe to say I’d absolutely come back for a third time! The rooms were great, the AC was epic (and very much needed!), and overall it was such an unforgettable week. Couldn’t recommend it enough! 🤍

First experience of cycling by cruise was a learning experience but mostly positive. Rides & bikes excellent, group & information managed really well by our guides. Unfortunately there was an issue with our boat and appreciate a last minute switch by Sail Croatia to keep holiday moving meant few issues. Ship was smaller so a cabin change, dining space cramped, guides were tired & stressed as unable to stay on boat with us. Food was ok but no lighter choices like salad before an afternoon of cycling.

Thank you for your 4-star rating and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that your first Cycle Croatia experience was mostly positive and that you particularly enjoyed the rides, bikes and the organisation and information provided by our guides. As you mentioned, an issue with the originally allocated ship required us to make a last-minute vessel change in order for your cruise to continue as planned. We appreciate that this resulted in some differences onboard and apologise for the disruption this caused. The replacement vessel remained within the same Premier ship category booked, which offers a comfortable style of small-ship cruising rather than a luxury experience. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the dining space and meal options and will share this with the relevant team. Thank you again for travelling with us. We’re pleased that despite the unexpected change, you had an enjoyable experience overall and appreciate your 4-star review.

Our sail and cycle tour was excellent. The tour guides, Cal and Sasa, were well prepared, organized, engaging and a lot of fun. The rides were excellent and very scenic. It was nice when we stopped along the way and we heard a bit about the region which helped us better understand Croatian culture. The captain, Ivan, and his crew were great and very helpful as well. The food was good and there was lots of it. Our server, Matej, was very good and made sure we had lots to eat and drink during our trip. I will say that having no hot water for a shower on the last night and final day was not good, but that would be my only complaint in an other wise fabulous week. Highly recommended!

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!

The tour leaders Josip and Augustin ensured each day was well planned, they supported all the guests and were filled with great historical information on each location that added to the scenery and atmosphere. Our trip experienced a serious accident for one of the guests and the manner in which our guides handled the incident with professionalism and care was tremendous. They showed consideration and urgency to address the situation but also genuine care for everyone involved. On board the boat, all the crew were friendly and professional and the service of Peter behind the bar was great. We anticipated a fun and exciting trip with great locations and experiences - and were well pleased. We'd totally recommend this trip to anyone that wants a great balanced trip to the Croatian Islands

We had a wonderful time, meeting new people from different parts of the world. We developed new friendships that we will maintain going forward!!! The cast and crew will remain in our memories forever, as we had a delightful time and will recommend to those we know.

Amazing vacation. The staff and crew of Sail-Croatia made this holiday second to none. Mickey (our captain) and Dora (our hostess) were the best. They were above and beyond professional,friendly,skilled,helpful and simply wonderful. They made this trip so enjoyable and fun. We had nothing to worry about. They gave us great guidance for restaurants as well as things to do and places to shop. We felt incredibly well taken care of and spoiled. Dora was a perfect hostess-her meals were delicious! The boat was spotless. She was an absolute joy. Mickey was so attentive and made sure we visited all the best swimming areas, kept a watchful eye on us and was the best captain! I can’t wait for our next adventure with Sail Croatia. ❤️

Great time, the guides did a great job. They were friendly and knowledgeable. The crew was also excellent. On "complaint" is that the food on the boat could have been better. I would still recommend them.

We travelled with 9 other couples and were lucky to have chosen the Katerina as our ship. It was truly a positive experience . The entire staff , and captain we all so friendly and accommodating. A special acknowledgement to Dino our tour director who was always there to answer questions and ensure our day went smooth no matter where we were . It will be a trip we will always remember .

Best way to experience the Islands. The crew was great and the fellow travellers were so friendly! Second time for me I would / have recommended this trip to everyone!
- Ron, 23/09/2026 11:11, Travelled in a Couple
This was our best trip ever. Been to Spain, Italy and Portugal but this sail/cycle trip was more fun than we had expected. Fantastic crew and a great group of passengers made this our best trip ever. The cycling led by 2 fantastic guides provided superb views of the islands which you would not see if only on a cruise. Meals were delicious and on time. We loved the politeness and friendliness of the crew as well as the office staff who helped us with the booking. We would recommend this cruise and may even do it again next year ourselves. Special thanks to Marin, Lauren, Yako (spelling?) and Holly.

Had an amazing trip! It was exactly what we had hoped for! The small sailboat allowed us to really get to know the others on our trip. We made lasting friendships!! Our Tour rep, Nicos was awesome! Always helpful with options for us to do on each island and gave us the history of where we docking that day. He made the trip so enjoyable. The staff was fabulous! They were so helpful and went our of their way to make sure we had everything we needed. The boat was always clean and so nice to come back to a clean room each day! Wife and I agreed that some of the best food we had on our entire 2 week trip was on the boat!!! Trip of a lifetime!!!
- Scott, 22/09/2026 23:23, Travelled with Family
Had a great time! Beautiful scenery, fun swim stops and interesting walking tours. Vedran was our tour manager and was excellent. Food was great and huge quantities. All of the staff were great- Lucy, Pamela, and the Joseph’s. Rooms were bigger than expected, quiet, and AC worked great. Only downside- not enough places to hang wet things. Our group was very compatible with people from US, New Zealand, Australia, Tasmania, and Cypress. I thought the walking tours were excellent. We will recommend this cruise and the company to all of our friends.
- Rana, 22/09/2026 20:47, Travelled with Family
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.

Our trip to Croatia with Sail Croatia was pure perfection! We sailed on the Katarina, which was first class all the way. The accommodations, the marvelous captain, his crew and Klara, our tour manager were the absolute best!! IF I could give 10 stars I would. I highly recommend Sail Croatia for your trip to this beautiful country.
- Sheree, 22/09/2026 18:26, Travelled with Family
We had a wonderful 7 night cruise on the Katarina. The crew was exceptional - friendly, helpful and hard working. The Cruise Director, Dino, made the trip special. The only recommendation is for more excursions/activities in the ports.
- Charles, 22/09/2026 18:13, Travelled in a Couple
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.

A heartfelt thank you for such a wonderful and unforgettable experience. We had a delay in London and unfortunately missed the first leg of the cruise, but Lola was absolutely incredible. She guided us to get to the next port so we could catch the cruise. Her kindness and support meant so much to us. Once onboard, the experience was beyond anything I expected. The staff was amazing, Mario so warm, welcoming, and attentive never missed a beat. Chef Kole, WOW he is the friendliest and kindest man. He cooked the most incredible meals and his detail to preparation and plating was over the top. Every detail made us feel so well taken care of. I loved the smaller cruise experience. It made it so easy to connect with everyone, and we met some truly wonderful people and made great connections. I had an amazing time, and the whole experience was honestly more than I expected. I’m so grateful for the memories and the people we met. I would definitely come back! Thank you, I'm very grateful.
- Sandra, 22/09/2026 14:21, Travelled with Family
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.

Given that we were there during a terrible heat wave that made all the hikes more difficult but that said, only one or two of the hikes was at all interesting. Most were just up and down very steep rocky trails. Climbing to a summit without a real destination and turning around and going back was and was extremely tedious. Rock shale seems to be the normal path. It was difficult and not pleasant to walk on.. The boat was fine - not great - and the towns were all big tourist stops. I was glad to see the islands but we never escaped the crowds. Crew on the boat was fantastic.

Being on board with this small group was a blast. Every part of our cruize went as smoothly as possible with the help of Hana, our tour guide . Hana was extremely helpful and knowledgeable . Always present and making sure we were comfortable and answering any questions we might have. I would definitely recommend this company.

An absolutely fabulous experience aboard the beautiful Queen Jelena. The ship is stun̈ning - beautifully maintained with lots of lovely places to relax while watching the incredible Croatian scenery go by. The crew were exceptional, warm and friendly. Special thanks to Vedran - couldn't have asked for a better tour guide. We met some wonderful people along the way, made some lovely memories, and were genuinely sad when the week came to an end.
- Janette, 22/09/2026 05:58, Travelled in a Couple
Croatia is beautiful and this is a great way to see it. The Almissa was ok- we had the A/C stop working whenever the room temperature was too far away from the set point. So it would stop working in the middle of the night, which was very inconvenient. Dora was fantastic and always available. The rest of the crew was pretty good. I don't know why but I expected the captain to engage with us more. He was often out on his own. The food was good. But there was often so much of it, that it felt wasteful sometimes. Swim spots were very good. Overall, I would recommend this if you are social and like exploring. If you often like to be alone, you may not have much fun as you are stuck with the same 35 people for a whole week.

We just returned from a magnificent week-long sailing trip from Dubrovnik to Split (September 7–14) aboard Hound Dog, and it exceeded every expectation. Skipper Andrija was a true professional — skilled, experienced, and completely in command of the boat and the route, while making us feel confident and relaxed every step of the way. Hostess Josipa pampered us at every turn, anticipating our needs and treating us like family rather than guests. The boat itself was spotless and luxurious, clearly maintained with real pride. Between the crew's warmth and the boat's impeccable condition, this trip felt like a five-star experience from start to finish. If you're considering a sailing trip along the Croatian coast, do yourself a favor and book Hound Dog with Andrija and Josipa. We cannot recommend them highly enough — we're already dreaming about our next trip with them.
- Walter, 21/09/2026 15:18, Travelled with Family
A fabulous experience - amazing staff, beautiful ship, great food enhanced by the host Lucia and our cycle guide Dora. Both were brilliant and have great interactions with each other and all guests. Their knowledge of Croatia past and present was shared with passion and enthusiasm. Would I recommend anything is different—introduce a cocktail hour on the boat and you'll definitely increase the spend.
- Catherine Hinds, 21/09/2026 10:03, Travelled with Family
We were on a cycle cruise from Split to Split. What a fantastic holiday. Lucila and Dora were amazing hosts/leaders. Very helpful, knowledgeable and funny. All the crew were great. The waiters were friendly and efficient. The food was great. Accommodation was better than expected and our room was checked daily with fresh bedding and towels mid week. The e-bikes were in great condition and any issues were sorted out immediately. All in all a very good holiday.
- Roger, 21/09/2026 08:17, Travelled with Family
Wonderful holiday from start to finish. The entire crew was very attentive to every need. The Princeze Diana was like new, clean and spacious. The room and beds and linens were very comfortable. The cycling with e-bikes was the way to go, making the long uphills quite effortless. All the rides on the different islands were beautiful. Our guides Lucija and Dora were top notch with daily briefings, and stories of local history along the way. I would 100% recommend the Sail Croatia sail and cycle to anyone.

We had a great holiday cruising along the coast of Croatia! We loved the smaller size of the cruise, it was nice to chat with other people on board but also felt like we had space to just relax on our own too. The swim spots and old towns were stunning.

The trip was very good. The staff was great. I enjoyed the tour. Food was solid, but not phenomenal. I enjoyed the island visits but disappointed to miss Vis (understand that was weather related). I wish we had more opportunities to visit towns earlier in day. I'd rate this probably higher overall, about 4.25.

From the moment we stepped on board until the moment we left, this cruise was absolutely magical. The crew was beyond wonderful and helpful. They were kind and considerate, treated us like family. I was a little hesitant about the food on board since not the choices I was accustomed to but this was even better! The chef took pride in all he made and everything was delicious, we often were so full we often had a later dinner on the islands. And the chef was not alone, every crew member took pride in all they did. We felt so lucky to have them that some of us are hoping to do a reunion cruise and try to get the same crew! Croatia is beautiful and a week exploring the islands was perfect. The timing of each day eating, swim stops and island activities flowed effortlessly and we enjoyed each day. We were also fortunate to have a great group of passengers, many of whom plan to keep in touch. I suggest you don't hesitate & include this in your travel plans. Love shout out to our crew!

Didn’t really know what to expect, first time to Croatia/Europe! Let’s go on a boat I said to hubby! Well, it exceeded all expectations! Wow! The boat Contessa and tour guide Cal, were fantastic. Loved the daily swims, cabins were very comfortable, daily excursions were fun, food was divine. Staff on board were so friendly. We had a fabulous 7 nights on board. Only suggestion to make it perfect is a good coffee machine!!! Cheers, Ali & Phil. Western Australia

Ship was great. Crew was great. Food was great. Cycling was good. Each day should be a minimum of 40 km. 5 and 10 km days were disappointing. Guide should be prepared to quickly repair a flat tire. One day we spent an hour idling while he dealt with that, since he didn’t have the right tools. He should have sent us down the hill to the beach. Overall the briefs need to clearly and briefly state the aims of the ride and how much time in each stop. Electric and regular bikes do not mix. Too much waiting around for the regular riders. A group of 30 or more cyclists is too big to manage. Group size should be 15 max. Overall a great trip.

We sailed on the very well appointed ship Romantic Star from the 6th to the 13th September 2026. Everything about the cruise exceeded our expectations, from the roomy cabins, lounge and bar to the sun deck and hottub. We visited several beautiful islands, sailing the mornings and mooring up for swim stops. The ship had a range of water equipment for snorkelling and paddle boards amongst other things. The crew were fantastic, and i would like to acknowledge the professionalism of all of them. Our Cruise Director, Anita, was wonderful, very informative about our destinations and proactive in recommending restaurants and bookings. We made great friends on the cruise and hopefully we will remain friends for a long time to come. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia to my friends and family.

An absolutely wonderful time on board the Mali Ante sailing from Split to Dubrovnik. The crew were amazing with their attention to detail being top notch. Our chef Kola served us first class food every day (breakfast and lunches plus the captain’s dinner). The cabins are comfortable with plenty of room. There’s room under the bed to store your luggage once you unpack. We really enjoyed the daily swim stops and the ports we visited were all great. We also loved the optional add ons including the wine tasting and ATVs. I highly recommend Sail Croatia as a great way to experience this special place.

From start to finish we felt pampered. Our tour manager took care of every detail and our ship (the Contessa) was beautiful.

On top of all that we made new friends from all over the world onboard.

My wife and I were celebrating our 25th anniversary and looking forward to this cruise for months. Wow, Sail Croatia did not disappoint. From the initial sign up to the final moments of the cruise….the only word that comes to mind is smooth. Everything was easy. I’m one of those people that likes to do and plan things for myself but our cruise lead Vicko, was so helpful and knowledgeable. He made my wife and I very comfortable and we came to appreciate and trust his recommendations. He was genuine and honest regarding each port and the various excursions and experiences available to us. We had such a wonderful time, saw amazing ports and made lifetime friends. I cannot express how great every crew member of the Salve De Mare was and highly recommend the vessel.

It was absolutely delightful. A shoutout to Agustin where this was his first cycle cruise that he led and he did awesome. I think you guys are underselling what you offer - we went to Marco Polo center and Mamma Mia island, and these were barely even mentioned in the write up. Truly remarkable. The only suggestion is with varied abilities on riding bikes it could be good to have a longer intro session on bike safety. Even the basic things that some people may not be aware of. But overall, absolutely a stunning holiday !

Thank you to the entire crew with Katrina. Captain Ivan was fantastic and had a 3 piece band during the Captain’s dinner . They had everyone singing and dancing. Karlo , Ivana and the rest of the crew made us feel relaxed and at home right from the beginning. They always seemed to be there when we wanted something or had a question. The swimming stops along the way were fantastic and beautiful. Last but not least our tour guide Klara who was personable and knowledgeable concerning everything that came up. You could not ask for anything better out of a tour guide. Thank you Klara for sharing your knowledge and wisdom of your beautiful country. Thank you so much to the entire crew of Katarina for making our trip the trip of a lifetime 🥂

Overall our holiday was excellent. Great locations and a great crew who went above and beyond to make its success. Only three things I would highlight as opportinited for improvement: 1. Tipping: If the company and the crew have to propose a level for tipping this suggests that the crew wages are insufficient and you are relying ib tips to make them up. I would prefer you set the right wages, adjust the price for guests and leave tipping at the guests' discretion and at a much lower level. 2. The crew asked us to fill out the feedback form in their presence when we settled the bar tab. This wont give you candid feedback. Better to do it afterwards remotely like this. 3. The food was good but not as good as I would expect and most importantly the coffee was way too strong and unfiltered. Get a coffee machine.

Thank you for your 4-star rating and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that overall you had an excellent holiday, enjoyed the destinations and felt the crew went above and beyond to make your trip a success. We also appreciate your constructive suggestions regarding tipping, the timing of our onboard feedback forms, and the food and coffee offering. Tipping is entirely optional and at each guest’s discretion, although we appreciate your comments regarding how the suggested guidance is communicated. Your feedback regarding completing forms in the presence of the crew is also particularly useful, as we certainly want guests to feel comfortable providing open and candid feedback. Thank you again for travelling with us and for your 4-star review. We’re pleased that these areas for improvement aside, you had such an enjoyable holiday.
Our unforgettable holiday on the Salve Di Mare has come to an end, we’ve met some wonderful people and discovered beautiful, captivating places, lots of swim stops with an opportunity to leap into the sea. We’ve been spoilt with exceptional service fantastic food and not having to plan the next days adventure. Our tour rep Vic was on hand every morning to give us the low down of what to expect for the day ahead with informative and useful tips for making the most out of each stop. Great value, fantastic scenery lovely people super ship. Thank you all for giving us a wonderful holiday and faultless hospitality. Till the next time, happy sailing. Dave & Sonia Lundy

Our trip from Split to Dubronik on the Contessa was magical. The swim stops and scenery were beautiful. Access to the swim floaties and paddle boards was a wonderful addition. The boat was recently renovated and fresh. The cabin was quiet and had an ensuite, and there was adequate storage. Staff was friendly, and Hannah had answers to our daily questions. At times, the food on board was a bit too hearty for me otherwise, the breakfasts and lunches were nice.

Was a great time on the Queen Jelena -- Vedrun our tour manager was lovely and super informative. Ship was elegant and rooms were a good size, Food was overall very good onboard. A great way to relax and see Croatia without the trouble of moving hotels. Would be good if the ship left the coffee machine on all day. Also, Sail Croatia should include a few drinks per meal as part of the package. But definitely worth it -- an amazing vacation!

We had a fantastic time on the Columbo with Captain Antonio and his crew. Tonca and Lauren kept us well informed and accommodated the broad range of personalities and people. Breakfast and lunch plentiful and enjoyable. Islands were magical and riding was very comfortable. I am a cyclist for 50 years back in Australia, but I was very happy to have taken an E-bike for some of the hills to be able to enjoy the ride and views. There is also a wide range of dinner options in every place we stayed. Highly recommended.

Fantastic cruise from Split to Dubrovnik. Crew were excellent and provided seamless service throughout. Swim stops before docking at each island were a highlight. Additionally we really enjoyed the wine tour on Korcula and the bike trip on Mjet. Food was excellent, although lunches were a bit heavy - maybe consider lighter options, particularly where evening meals are planned. Cabin was very comfortable and clean.
