Highly Recommend!!!

The Sail Cycle is one of my favorite holidays to date. The Emmanuel was clean, comfortable and the crew went out of their way to make us feel at home. Chef George’s meals were not only delicious but also kept us energized for each ride. Our guides Miranda and Josip were friendly, helpful and always ready with a fun fact about Croatia. They kept us informed about the day’s plans and ensured everything went smoothly. I can’t recommend this trip enough. It was truly an unforgettable experience filled with adventure, great food, and even better people.

Dinos special seven

We were lucky with two things: first there were only seven of us on our cruise which made it feel like a group of old friends. Second was our tour guide Dino. Always happy. Very informative and could not have been more helpful. He was the main reason for our highly successful cruise.

Best cruise ever

Although there we only 7 guests on the cruise, nothing was reduced by the crew or the services provided, they we always available and attentive. Very professional but always friendly. The tour guide, Dino, made the journey interesting but also entertaining with his stories and history of all things Croatian. His rapport with our small group turned the trip from great to unforgettably amazing. He built a connection among the group which has created what will undoubtedly be some life long friendships. Our next cruise we will looking for the Olimp and insist on Dino!

Dino

The beautiful ship Olimp, the crew and best of all our guide Dino. He was our ideal guide, friendly, knowledgeable, fantastic sense of humour, always there for us. The places we docked Dino was there always to provide all the places we wanted to see and eat. Sail Croatia gave us the best holiday of our lives in a very beautiful country. Thankyou.

Elegance Croatia Cruise

The cruise was beyond my expectation! The ship, the accommodation and the food (!) were exceptional. The Ambiance onboard the Olymp was wonderful, and largely a result of the energy and humour of our tour guide, Dino! We were only seven passengers, but we were all very pleased with our trip amd will soon repeat. Thank you for a first view of an unknown ( to Me) part of the world. We all learned a lot and appreciate the efforts of the crew.

Crew part of your family

The crew went to great lengths daily to address any questions or concerns. The food was great and if you liked your morning eggs other than was offered, the cook took orders. The cycling staff was very attentive to your safety and to each person physically being able to do days planned route. All in all great service for an affordable price.

Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise on Salve Di Mare – A Truly Unforgettable Experience!

Our week aboard the Salve Di Mare with Sail Croatia was nothing short of amazing! Every stop was perfectly chosen, offering the ideal balance of rich history, relaxing coastal vibes, and absolutely stunning scenery. As the first cruise of the season, it was wonderfully peaceful — the towns were quiet but still full of charm, giving us a chance to enjoy Croatia without the usual crowds. The ship itself was stunning: modern, spacious, and beautifully maintained. The crew were incredibly helpful, friendly, and truly made us feel like part of one big family. Special mention goes to our guide, Anita, who was simply next-level amazing. Her passion and deep knowledge of Croatian history made every moment memorable. She went above and beyond to ensure we experienced the very best Croatia has to offer, and by the end, it felt like we had known her forever. If you're considering this trip, my one tip would be to fly/start in Split and fly/finish out of Dubrovnik with a few nights in each.

Good first cruise

The crew on our boat was amazing. It was our very first cruise of any kind. We ran into some nasty weather and they did their best to make the best of the situation. Our shower door, however, would not stay closed during the rough seas and it kept banging against the wall and we were afraid the glass would break. We finally put suitcases in front to hold it still. My only “complaint” would be that we were told we needed to be off the ship at 9 in the morning. Our flight was not until afternoon and it being Easter.. all the luggage storage places were closed. A number of people were allowed to stay on until 10:30 and that would have make a huge difference for us. We would have eaten a much bigger breakfast instead of thinking we could find a decent breakfast in town while toting our suitcases. However.. This was the only down side . I would highly recommend this company as the overall experience was wonderful. We had a great crew and fellow passengers.

Hi Jan, Thank you so much for your kind 5 Star review and for choosing to travel with us on our Elegance cruise! We're absolutely delighted to hear that you had a wonderful experience and that you'd recommend Sail Croatia to others — that means the world to us. We really appreciate your feedback regarding the check-out time. We do ask guests to disembark by 9am to allow our crew time to prepare for the next arrivals at 11am, we completely understand that an early start can be a bit of a challenge, especially after a relaxing week on board. We'll continue to ensure this process is as smooth and stress-free as possible. We hope to welcome you back on board again soon for another unforgettable adventure!

Exciting way to explore the Dalmatian Islands!

Beautiful boat & great crew!

I loved Tilly from Sail Croatia

My trip was almost year ago, but I can’t stop thinking about how great my week was with Sail Croatia. Tilly was the best rep who guided us through the week with grace and kindness and was always there when we needed her. Would come back again!

A Wonderful Relaxing Experience!

Miranda, Tonka, Ivica x 2, Ilija, Ivan, Miro, Mate. Everyone was so kind and helpful. We had the most interaction with our guides Miranda and Tonka and with our server Miro...they were so wonderful. There was nothing they would not do for us...rolled with the punches...gave us everything we needed...and more! The cabins were a good size, lots of storage and lots of hot water. The itinerary was perfect and we got to see lots of places both on and on the bikes. We had some travel problems but not one issue while on the cruise. Loved it!

An Amazing Vacation

I loved Ivice (our ride leader) and Anita (the sweep/story teller extraordinaire). Ivice made every ride fun and kept an eye on each one of us to make sure we stayed safe! The rides were beautiful and the terrain provided a great workout. When the weather looked iffy, Ivice and the captain came up with an alternate plan that was also fun and rewarding. The e-bikes were terrific; powerful yet easy to use! Anita always brought interesting stories each day and planned some really fun activities for the evening. Since I have been back I have raved about both of these people and recommended the trip to a number of people. I apologize for the delay in submitting this review but I did not return to the states for 34 days. Both of these people are true assets to your company and I can’t say enough good things about each of them! Thank you for a fabulous vacation and please let them know how much we loved being on vacation with them!! With deep affection, Ginnie Daine

Great holiday

Thanks Sail Croatia for a very relaxing, fun and interesting sail around the islands off the coast of Split. We had a great time. The catamarans were Spacious! Ensuites were a happy surprise. Skipper was excellent.

Great cruise

Friendly and helpful staff, pleasant surroundings and clean, comfortable rooms. Meals on board were really good, and Ivan, our tour operator was very personable and knowledgeable. Wines were interesting and places visited were also worth while. We especially enjoyed the swim each day.

Best cruise ever!

Sail Croatia did everything possible to make our 7 day wine cruise an unforgettable experience! The boat, Queen Jelena, was beautiful as well as comfortable. And the crew was exceptional from the captain to the cooks to the hospitality staff. The tour director, Ivan, was fabulous! He was well-organized, thorough, kind and had a great sense of humor. He kept us well-informed about the day's plans and previewed up-coming excursions. We enjoyed the daily swims, and the on-shore activities were worthwhile, well selected, and we had plenty of time to enjoy them. The food was exceptional: delicious, superbly presented and served promptly. We don't see how the cooks managed to get such great meals out of a small galley. Everything about the cruise was excellent! We were lucky with the weather and our congenial group of shipmates. We recommend Sail Croatia without reservation, and the wine cruise adds an interesting dimension to the tour if you are interested in wine.

Tony and MaryAnn

We had a wonderful time thanks to the staff and the beautiful people of Croatia! Ivan was a fantastic host and went out of his way to ensure that every guest was taken care of. Pamela, our server/bartender, was kind, courteous, and friendly. Our cabin was spacious, comfortable, clean, and bath was larger than expected. The other guests onboard were exceptionally friendly and a joy to be around. The experiences at various wine venues were so memorable. We are still enjoying reminiscing and chuckling about our trip. Do not hesitate to book an Elegance Wine Tour, it was so much fun!

Brilliant life changing experience

Rooms spacious, the excursions were well planned and brilliant. Our host Anita was friendly and very helpful. The sailing team were friendly and helpful. The food could have been better, the portions however were generous. Swim stops lovely. Would have liked the hot tub warmer when it was available to use. The team were very organised and gave us all the info on stops, timings and what to do at each port. It is a fantastic boat the captain and crew were exceptional!

Salve Di Mare Navigator Cruise

We loved every minute of our cruise with Sail Croatia. It exceeded all expectations. The ship was impeccably maintained, our room was spacious and our beautifully appointed ensuite bathroom was the size of a hotel ensuite. The food was delicious and the staff were amazing. The standout for us were the activities on offer at each island we visited. They were optional but we tried to do all of them to maximise our experience. Anita, our representative/tour guide was incredible. She worked so hard to ensure we all had the best experience and she took so much care of us all, Every day she communicated options and updates and kept us informed every step of the way. For me having a representative like Anita elevated the cruise to a whole new level. In consultation with the Captain she adapted the activities, sometimes at last minute, to suit the conditions and always endeavoured to give us all the best experience. The Blue Cave, Vis was one of the best highlights. 💯 recommend this cruise,

A great way to spend a week on Croatia's coast!

The tour was a wonderful way to see some of Croatia, relax, and enjoy some outdoor and cultural activities. Ioana was a fantastic tour guide and the crew on the boat provided excellent service. The history tour in Split was very interesting, the wine tasting in Korcula was lovely, bike riding in Mljet and Makarska (private rental) was a great way to see the area, and going up the cable car in Dubrovnik provided amazing views of the city and coastline. I enjoyed the swim stops and the option to use the on-board paddle board and kayak, and the food onboard was delicious and plentiful. There was a good mix of down-time and activities/walking in the towns to keep things fun and interesting. We weren't able to do all of the excursions due to weather conditions, but it wasn't a big issue (and they were often quite pricey). I enjoyed seeing a number of different locations, while returning to the same room every night and getting to know the many wonderful people on the tour.

Relaxing and Memorable

Our cruise was very relaxing with the right balance of activities and interaction with other guests. We really loved the swim stops each day and the meals were of premium quality and presentation. There was plenty of space on the boat, Esperanza, to feel like you could have some privacy and then interact when we wanted to. We would recommend the cruise and we had a great time., the crew was very helpful and friendly.

Sale di Mare, Split to Dubrovnik

The guide, Anita, was excellent. Charming, efficient and most helpful. It was a joy to have such service. I cannot recommend her too much. The crew were very helpful. Food not so good- too much overcooked meat, just one fish dish in 7 days.. Good bar service. Most enjoyable party after the captain',s dinner- lots of dancing ! I did not engage in excursions, as too strenuous for my age.. Others enjoyed them.. Cabin fine and very efficient and pleasant cleaner.

Great option from BIG Cruise Ships

We were a group of friends (8) who joined Sail Croatia for the Dubrovnik to Split 7 day cruise. The cabins were comfortable, the bathroom more spacious than the normal cruise ship. With only 40 people onboard I was concerned that we would be in each others pockets. There is more than enough space onboard to ensure you can read a book quietly if you want. The staff on our cruise (Salve de Mere) were supurb, from the maid throufg to the Captain, we were all in excellent hands. I loved the fact that we docked in small ports each night so we could enjoy local restaurants and bars. Each morning we stopped for a swim...as it was late season a few of us decamped to the jaquizzi where we had pre lunch cocktails...great fun! Each afternoon we were given options of excursions we could take, from walking and exploring, to bike rides and wine tasting. I would probably give the Buggies a miss as you travel in convoy at about 20kms per hour...very boring and a waste of money..

7 beautiful days

The sailors took pride in their ship, always on top of their responsibilities. Our room was comfortable as advertised, staff friendly. Anita our hostess engaged with all her passengers, always eager to help. Our trip was delightful, swimming spots and beautiful ports to dock in. Wonderful country to explore with delicious food. Very fortunate to have had the loveliest travellers to make our holiday exceptional.

What an adventure! Sailing on the Olimp was fantastic. First, the cruise leader, Ioana. Wow. Dynamic, organized, fun. Not sure the cruise would have been the same without her leading the way. The ship itself was beautiful and well maintained. The staff was helpful to make sure all our needs were met. Beautiful destinations and fun history tours. Even though we were traveling with friends, the new friends we made helped make things even better. Would be happy to go again.

Sail Croatia Wine cruise

This trip was wonderful from beginning to end. Croatia is a beautiful country and we were able to enjoy it both on land and while cruising the Adriatic. The ship, Queen Jelena, was our comfortable floating hotel. The cabin/bath were a good size ( the bed a wee bit hard) and the ship's common areas offered various areas to sit, lounge, meet friends or just enjoy being on the sea. The food was delicious, the crew was fantastic and incredibly hard working, the wine tastings and cultural experiences were lots of fun. Our trip manager Ivan was absolutely top notch. The small group size made it easy to mingle with the other guests which made the experience even richer (although a list of guest names and name tags for the crew, at least initially, would have been helpful for getting acquainted the first few days. I would highly recommend the Sail Croatia wine cruise.

Small ship sailing

The ship, Olmp, was immaculate and the crew always helpful. With only 36 passengers the experience was very personal and we were fortunate to have a very interesting and homogenous group . The meals served were all delicious but the service was a little too efficient for me. I prefer a slower pace while eating. The only meal that I would avoid n the future is the so called "BBQ". Definitely not up t the chefs usually high standards. The Sail Croatia cruise is a great way to sample all that Croatia has to offer. Our cruise director, Ioana, added another dimension to our touring experience. We all had a wonderful and educational experience on the cruise

Fantastic trip, Exceeded expectations

Everything just came together beautifully. Fantastic weather, a diverse interesting group of friendly really nice passengers, a warm friendly crew and fantastic host Anita. On board food was great. The timing of events, swim stops and activities each day was well, thought out and just worked. Anita did a really good job of keeping everyone updated throughout the day both personally and via a group chat including extra things to do, places to eat etc. To top it off, the boat, Salve de Mare, was fantastic, with lots of space, very clean and comfortable with everything operating as it should. Would definitely travel with Sail Croatia again!
