The crew were great and the ship was well laid out, very clean and tidy, and well maintained. We missed two destinations we were really looking forward to, the Blue Cave and Mljet island, but no effort was made by Sail Croatia to try and replace these locations with other appropriate destinations. Two destinations we did visit were very poor and of little interest - a walk of an hour allowed you to see all there was, which was not much! There were other blue and emerald caves that we passed on our journey but no effort was made to include these instead. Not a very good outcome and quite disappointing.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re delighted to hear you found the crew great and the ship clean, well maintained and thoughtfully laid out. We’re sorry you were disappointed to miss the Blue Cave and Mljet, particularly as these were destinations you were looking forward to. While itinerary changes can occasionally be necessary due to weather, sea conditions and local operating circumstances, we appreciate that alternative stops may not always feel comparable to those originally planned. Unfortunately, other caves along the route are not necessarily suitable or accessible for our vessels or able to be substituted at short notice. We appreciate your feedback and are sorry these changes impacted your overall experience.
Cruise was very nice, here are the positives and then what I would change. Good was food, prices on drinks was fair, Mio on staff, Croatia, cleanliness, captains dinner, communication once on ship, staff responsiveness, I would change the following, better quality water toys (standup paddle boards were cheapest quality imaginable), add “nice touches”( snacks, mints on pillow, thoughtful stuff). Huge lunch unnecessary and getting to islands after 2:30, often even later kinda sucked, change up breakfast offering/spread, outside Mio, Klara and captain, staff wasn’t engaging or customer friendly, everyday long swim stop not ideal or needed/wanted, get us to islands earlier, update website to correct information, (eg pay Bartab with cc or 10% discount for cash, etc, ) and a little disappointed we didn’t get to Vis - due to weather - but a friends boat went same day we should have. Overall very nice but was missing the thoughtful touches to make it a special and outstanding memory.

1. The wifi should work better. 2. For the price of the trip, I expected that we would have access to a good coffee machine 24/7. The urns provided were not satisfactory. 3. The excursions were overpriced. 4. The “included” tour of Dubrovnik should have included a bus to take passengers to the old town. 5. There should be enough treats during the coffee and tea hour (11-12) so everyone has a chance to get a snack. 6. The staff were friendly. 7. The boat was well kept. 8. Our rooms were kept clean. 9. The price of wine (bottles and glasses) were overpriced. 10. The captain’s dinner was very nice. It would have been better if wine was included.

Hi there, thank you for your review! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the friendly staff, cleanliness of the ship, and the Captain’s Dinner. However, we are sorry to hear of your disappointment with some aspects. In regards to the Wi-Fi, it is subject to download limits and coverage can be inconsistent while out at sea. We aim to provide as much informaiton for the excursions offered and details are transparently outlined on our website. We appreciate your comments on the coffee machine. Coffee and tea is available during saloon hours, with additional snacks upon request. We strive for competitive drink prices and appreciate your suggestion of including wine with the Captain’s Dinner. Your feedback is valuable, and we appreciate all your comments, thank you.
Improve your product??? Surely you mean “offering”. The food offering was repetitive, unexciting, the puddings , (with one exception) were inedible, the use of fake cream from a can was particularly unpleasant. Some Croatian specialities would have been welcome on the menus. Also no other options were available apart from a vegetarian option. All in all, completely underwhelming. Sleep was difficult due to the cheap pillows. However the tour rep Stephan was excellent as was the restaurant/bar manager.

Hi Christine, thank you for your 3 star review. We will ensure that your kind words on Stjepan and the Bar Manager are passed on. It is a shame to hear that we did not meet your expectations when it comes to the food. Guest feedback is very important to us and your remarks will be passed onto the relevant team so that improvements can be made. Thank you for providing us with this feedback and for joining us in Croatia this season.
Meals left a little to be desired. The amount of food was good. The menu needed more variety. The crew were great, very pleasant and helpful.

Thank you for your review - we are really pleased to hear that the crew were helpful and friendly. However, we are sorry to hear about the meals served. Our chefs try their very best to cater to a wide range of palettes however, we understand this is not always possible. We thank you for your comments on this.
It was not made clear in the description of the cruise that you are stuck on the boat cruising until 2pm EVERY day. The food portions were inadequate. The protein couldn't have been more than 4 oz per meal There was nothing available in between. We are not large cruisers - so we are not comparing the food to the gluttonous option aboard 4,000 passenger cruise ships. The ship was fine as were the cabins and staff.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review! We are really pleased to hear that you were happy with the ship, your cabin and that staff looked after you. Thank you for your valuable feedback in regards to food portions and protein in your meals. We cater for special dietary requirements and any feedback provided on board is passed on to the chef. The scheduling of each day is well-paced to ensure there is a good balance of relaxation and exploration in each island. The Captain will stop for a swim stop each day in the course of the morning to provide an opportunity for a refreshing swim before you reach your destination in the afternoon. Thank you again for your feedback and we hope to see you again with us sometime soon.
