Perfect holiday! Marin our cruise manager was absolutely amazing. So many fun well organized activities. Chefs and bartenders were also fantastic. Food was always delicious. Just the best vacation ever! I would go back tomorrow!!

I knew this trip would be once-in-a-lifetime, but the Contessa crew exceeded every expectation! My family had so much to celebrate—my parents renewed their vows, I got engaged, and I celebrated 20 years cancer-free. As someone who normally travels with a detailed itinerary and spreadsheet, this was the first time I truly let go and went pomalo—and I’m so glad I did. In just 7 days, strangers from Canada, Australia, Norway, and the USA became friends. That says everything about the incredible atmosphere this crew created. A huge thank you to Marin for his hospitality, local knowledge, humor, and always keeping us safe and taken care of. Neno & Ivana made the boat drinks unforgettable! Joy kept my room spotless and cozy, while Bane & Marko served food worthy of a five-star restaurant. And thank you to Tino, Charlie, Captain Slavko & Kristijana for everything you did behind the scenes. I’m already looking through photos with serious holiday blues. Thank you, Contessa crew!

We had a lovely time on the Blackbird with our family. Thanks to our sailing experience we were able to see so much more of the country than we expected to. We would have liked to have had more time in different stops and a captain who was more flexible with our preferences. Also, a more mature captain is definitely a request we now know to make in the future. However, for our first time, this was incredible!

We have been all over the world and had some amazing experiences from dogsledding in Alaska, riding the Rocky Mountaineer through Canada and walking the Camino through Spain but nothing will ever top this cruise. Our ship had just 15 other guests who were all wonderful friendly people. Every meal was a taste sensation and every day was filled with swimming in clear blue 27° water, visiting magnificent villages and experiencing a wonderfully vibrant part of the world. Thank you to Sail Croatia!

- Maureen, 25/08/2026 20:42, Travelled with Family

Our cruise holiday was idyllic from every standpoint! The Olimp luxury yacht offered a most unique cruise experience which felt very singular. We were indulged with a daily dip in the Adriatic’s crystalline and refreshing waters in tiny private coves where we could swim, snorkel or paddle board. It was a true highlight! The smaller cruise format allowed passengers to forge a more intimate interaction with one another which truly made for a memorable sail. The crew worked tirelessly in preparing gourmet fare, cocktails and catering to our every whim while maintaining an immaculate ship. Our Tour Director, Dino with his mega watt smile was always most eager to address any issues, offer tips and make solid resto recommendations - unfailingly! We thoroughly enjoyed our family cruise through the splendid Dalmatian coast - a 5-star experience!

We loved the destinations we went to and the daily swim spots selected by the Captain. We were very impressed with the great service we received from our cruise director Klara. She made sure all our needs were met in s friendly, cheerful manner

My husband and I traveled to Croatia ,to see the country of my maternal grandparents. It was an incredible experience! The people of Croatia are helpful and welcoming. Many people speak excellent English which helps when asking for directions. The cities we visited were easily accessible along the Croatian coastline. There were some places that were challenging to access, due to stairs. We were able to climb at our own pace. The small ship, Olimp, was lovely, clean and comfortable. I appreciated the fact that if I was tired, or the weather was too hot, I could return to the ship and relax . After breakfast, we swam in a small cove everyday. What made the trip even more enjoyable, was meeting fellow passengers from Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and the United States. I absolutely recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience Croatia.

- Rita, 25/08/2026 12:41, Travelled with Family

Everything was amazing, staff, swim stops, food and excursions, cabins, islands. I would do this again in a heart beat they made us feel very spoilt and well looked after we had a great group of people and made new life long friends.

- Marion, 25/08/2026 06:46, Travelled with Family

Our trip was amazing - stunning swim stops and gorgeous marinas which was made all the more special because of our fantastic skipper Matea

- Louise, 25/08/2026 06:30, Travelled with Family

Fabulous holiday that provided you lots of adventure without you having to plan anything. Amazing crew and top notch food daily. By the end of the week you’ll have met many new acquaintances. Lots of daily fun facts about each island you visit. My favourite was the daily water stops where you were able to get off boat and swim in the crystal clear sea. What better way to explore beautiful Croatia than Sail Almissa!

- Marylyn, 24/08/2026 11:06, Travelled with Family

Bike & Sail Croatia exceeded our expectations as our guides Andro & Mario were professional, caring, knowledgeable and so fun! The crew was top notch with young Sonia & Danillo keeping us all hydrated We lucked out with a very cohesive group of bikers who we now consider friends like family. Can’t wait to book another beautiful Sail Croatia again!

- Cathrin, 24/08/2026 08:46, Travelled with Family

It was over and above all our expectations . . . a truly unique experience where we met a lot of lovely people from all over the world. The staff were amazing too. Vicko was so informative delivering just the right amount of information about all our stops and with great humour. The staff anticipated what we needed at any particular time. Food provided was of an exemplary standard. Swim stops and excursion destinations were all fabulous even though we had been in Croatia several times before the country and its islands keep on giving us new delights. It is a true gem of a place. We couldn't have wished for more.

- Magdalene, 24/08/2026 08:11, Travelled with Family

Our holiday was truly amazing. We decided to travel on the Salve di Mare boat. It was absolutely beautiful. The boat and cabins were extremely clean and well kept. The crew was amazing. Our captain and crew were top notch! They were extremely helpful and made sure all of our needs were met at all times. We were treated extremely well. The holiday is certainly one we will remember forever and we will for sure travel with the Salve di mare again. Aldo, our Sail Croatia tour director, Hana, was amazing. She was extremely knowledgeable and professional. She made sure we had everything we needed to experience Croatia and she went above and beyond!

We had an amazing week with a great Captain Marjon. He made sure our holiday was everything we hoped for..

- Dianna, 23/08/2026 18:43, Travelled with Family

Unique experience was heightened by the crew: their smiles, going above & beyond without request, delicious food (accommodating allergies & preferences too). Favorite memories: Sailor Tino serving as cocktail server delivering to our "floating bar" we created utilizing the paddle boards during swim stops. Bartender Naeno remembering my drinks from day 1 - am manually making my fresh iced tea from brewed & pm chardonnay w/3 ice cubes. Great conversation & genuinely cared to get to know people. Bartender Joanna sweet & accommodating even when I was being "extra". Attendant Joy for keeping our cabin clean-constantly replacing bathmat & folding clothes, etc. Our space cozy and spotless too. Director Vin was funny even when he wasn't trying to be. Tip to future guests: Do not start a drinking game where you drink anytime he says the word "ALSO". If ya know, ya know. Don't forget Sailor Charlie - ALWAYS cleaning the yacht. Have a chat with him about where he's lived too.

- Carla, 21/08/2026 07:31, Travelled with Family

Our holiday was Exceptional. My husband and I were celebrating our retirement and we were also celebrating the engagements of our two daughters and their fiances. From my initial booking to this review my/our experience has been exptremely professional, well organized with excellent communication and assistance with any questions we had. Our crew, including our Skipper, Mislav and our Hostess Mirna were absolutely incredible. Mislav's knowledge of our yaght, the islands visited and Croatian history was extremely appreciated. Mirna's wonderful dishes served for breakfast, lunch and snacks were SO dilicious and appreciated by all. She is truly an amazing cook and her knowledge also, of the islands was welcomed. Mislav and Mirna were a great team. They worked so well together and were beautiful human beings inside and out. We wanted to take them home with us. Our time spent on Alley Cat was a wonderful experience for our family of 6 - if we can, we will be back! Thank You

- Mary, 20/08/2026 11:01, Travelled with Family

I had a wonderful time on this trip! The crew was great and the food was delicious. Every spot we went to was beautiful. It would have been nice to explore the towns in the morning and then do a swim stop after lunch when it was extremely hot. I also wish there was more excursions like jet skis or fishing. I would definitely recommend this trip to anyone.

- Anonymous, 20/08/2026 10:29, Travelled with Family

We enjoyed our trip tremendously. We have never been on a cruise. This is the best way to give a cruise a try. It’s a smaller cruise boat with only a handful of people and crew. Great bar with attentive staff. No disco and thousands of people swarmed by a pool. The food was very good. It was the perfect balance of action, adventure, sightseeing and relaxation. The private swim coves were one of our favorite parts of the day. Our coordinator Klara was amazing. I know it’s her job to be friendly but I truly felt like she really enjoyed our group and wanted to hang out with us. I definitely recommend Sail Croatia. We may even try their Greek Island tour…only if Klara is the coordinator.

- Deborah Rogers, 19/08/2026 13:57, Travelled with Family

We were blown away by the end to end experience w/ Sail Croatia— thoughtful stops, daily swimming, excursions + dining reservations made in advance on your behalf. We are busy working parents juggling robust school + sports schedules. Once we got onboard we left all the logistics, planning, navigating to Sail Croatia and were able to miss many of the crowds commonly found across Croatia in August. Our tour manager Hana is an ace at her job and brought in enough history / cultural overview to keep the teenagers interested. Food was beyond expectation and accommodating of allergies + preferences. Cabins were clean and well appointed. We will be re booking this holiday! 5 stars.

- Meredith, 19/08/2026 08:03, Travelled with Family

Sail Croatia created a magical experience for us on the clean and comfortable ‘Princeza Diana.’ Guides Lucy and Ivan made our cruise feel personal and professional with a keen sense of humor, local expertise and fun. The daily schedule was well organized with a nice mix of scheduled activities (biking, swimming, touring) and downtime. Chef Marko created amazingly delicious multi-course meals that were loved by all. The entire staff was pleasant, polite and hard-working. Bikes were in excellent condition and fun to ride. We highly recommend this fabulous experience with Sail Croatia. Ask for Lucy and Ivan - you won’t regret it!

We had a blast on the Esperanza. Klara was a terrific host and guide - informative and fun! The crew was top notch. The Sail Croatia experience was perfect for visiting so many islands, all were beautiful and unique in their own way. Highly recommend !

Our group of 7 traveled with Klara on the Esperanza., Dubrovnik to Split. Wr had a wonderful time exploring Croatia! It was the perfect mix of activity and relaxation.

Croatia is so beautiful, blue waters everywhere. The captain and the crew nembers were friendly and courteous! Especially, HANA made everything so pleasant, so friendly, and was on top of any issues and resolved right away. Hana worked to make sure every guest was happy, satisfied and having a good time. I already mentioned about this cruise to people around me to consider taking this cruise. Thanks to all for letting us have an unforgettable trip!

Sailed on the Contessa. The cabin was wonderful with lots of storage. Suggest having a top sheet on beds and a shower mat as floor is slippery. Loved all of the ports and time to swim in the Adriatic! Wonderful crew. Requested an itemized bill at the end but said they don't have a printer. The food was amazing! Fresh fruit everyday, pastries, eggs etc. Lunch was bountiful! The presentation of meals was 5 star! Loved the view from the top deck and all around the ship. A small thing, but maybe a sign upon arrival posting Welcome to ...(port). The crew works very hard and the ship is immaculate. I'd highly recommend. A fantastic experience. Can't wait to recommend to my clients. Darlene

The Sail Croatia Team made this a trip of a lifetime for ourselves and adult kids.. I always felt confident that we were in great hands and that both Lucy and Miranda would help us with anything needed. The entire staff has set a very ‘high bar’ for quality and friendliness Thanks to all of you for making this trip so memorable!

10/10 for Sail Croatia. This trip exceeded my families expectations. The tour manager (Hana) and crew were excellent - informative, fun and lots of attention to detail. Daily swim stops were idyllic, each island had something to offer and the ship had great amenities. Rooms were spacious, very clean and great AC. Common areas were very well kept and food was great with change up’s every day. We relaxed, had fun and truly enjoyed Croatia. Would travel with Sail Croatia again and highly recommend to others!

- Sarah, 12/08/2026 15:13, Travelled with Family

We had an absolutely brilliant week on board Spellbound. The yacht was lovely and had everything we needed. What made our holiday were the crew (Kristijan our skipper and Gloria our hostess), who came up with the perfect itinerary for us, sorted dinner reservations and cooked us delicious breakfasts/lunches. We loved swimming in the sea, visiting different places/marinas and spending time together as a family.

- Clare, 12/08/2026 12:58, Travelled with Family

Our Captain was great and provided excellent guidance throughout as we had no set idea of our tour. 10/10 for Captain. The boat itself was a bit worn/aging. The fridge wasnt working properly and constantly dripped stale water over all the food, which is def not hygenic, and the freezer compartment didnt work. Water pooled in the bottom shelf of the fridge with weird scum on it. The provided linens all had some kind of stain on them. Overall things on board were a bit shabby, wouldve expected higher quality (things like good linens are such a small $ to maintain) but we didnt let that spoil the beautiful clear waters to swim in and the enjoyable journey!

We had an absolutely amazing week sailing aboard Almissa! The country is stunning, with breathtaking coastline, crystal-clear water, and beautiful towns to explore. A special thank you to the incredible crew of Almissa for being so friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The food on board was exceptional—far beyond our expectations and honestly one of the highlights of the trip. A big shout-out as well to our tour manager, Josip, who was fantastic. He was fun, approachable, incredibly well organized, and always went the extra mile to make sure everyone had a great time and knew about all the available activities and options. This was a truly memorable experience, and I would absolutely sail Croatia again—perhaps on a different route next time. Highly recommended!

- Svetlana, 05/08/2026 16:37, Travelled with Family

It was amazing, we had a really good time, our captain and hostess were incredibly nice and our best decision was to leave all the destinations up to them. They took us to gorgeous places and always recommended delicious restaurants to dine in. Jo (the hostess) always cooked delicious breakfast and lunch it was a exciting to see what she was gonna cook that day! I can’t recommend this experience more! It was truly wonderful and super worth it!

I've traveled extensively for pleasure and work and enjoy unique stays (like yurts) as well as luxury (Four Seasons etc) I was seeking a special trip to take with my adult kids (25 and 23) before my daughter moves from CA to NY. Sail Croatia looked great on paper but you never know... Well, I am here to say that this trip exceeded our expectations in myriad ways! My son said it was the best trip he's ever taken and I agree with him wholeheartedly!! Vedran, our guide, was so informative, kind and funny from Day 1 and we were lucky in that our group of 14 strangers bonded immediately. That in itself is unheard of and a testament to how Vedran brought us together. And WOW!! The incredible turquoise sea and the daily swim stops were my favorite part. What a gift! And on top of that, we also had the opportunity to explore and experience amazing islands every day! The unique meals/ experiences through the Taste of Croatia were the icing on the cake. Special memories for a lifetime!!

- Julie Allen, 05/08/2026 14:51, Travelled with Family

Our week on Almissa exceeded all expectations. The boat was so clean and the crew was great. The rooms had plenty of storage and the bathroom size was much larger than we expected! The meals were so tasty and as a picky eater, I truly enjoyed each one. The swim stops were definitely a highlight each day and it was a great mix of exploring local towns and relaxing in the sun. Highly recommend Almissa!

Thanks so much for an amazing sailing holiday on the beautiful and modern yacht Night Sky. We were a family of five (2 adults and 3 young children including a baby) + a very lovely and highly skilled skipper with local knowledge allocated to us by Sail Croatia. We enjoyed every second of the trip. The yacht has lots of space and the cockpit especially is very spacious. It is also very clean and the cabins are comfortable for sleeping. The yacht is well equipped and had everything we needed + more. The yacht is great for sailing with young children onboard, she behaves very stable while having sails up and it was good speed too. Very fun! The Sail Croatia team was very helpful all the way and made us feel very much looked after, they are very organised and we very much recommend them. We will be back for sure .

Our trip on board the Katarina was much more than we had imagined! The boat was so comfortable with lots of space to spread out or cozy when you wanted to be with others. The staff were so friendly and helpful and always smiling despite the many hours they were putting in. Our guide “V”. Was so sweet and funny and very knowledgeable! He briefed us on all the islands! “I HAD THE TIME OF MY LIFE AND I OWE IT ALL TO YOU”” lol

Every aspect of this holiday is great - the crew, the itinerary, the food , the relaxation around the secluded swim areas and the differing coastline destination culture & vibe. We were incredibly fortunate to have a great bunch of fellow travellers . Best of all was Dino our lead as he was fantastic in going above and beyond to make special arrangements for my husband who has a lung condition so that he did not miss out on any adventure. Overall a highly recommended week of relaxation where everything is done for you and your brain can just switch off .

We had a great week aboard Princeza Diana. The crew were attentive and our host Ana very knowledgeable. Some great excursion options. A small group of 15 which actually made the week as we all got to know each other so well and all clicked. Highly recommend. I would say though when asked if you have dietary restrictions, if you don’t like fish or tomatoes worth saying as they are very much apart of the meals. Overall meals were good.

- Sue, 27/07/2026 06:42, Travelled with Family

We had a great holiday. In a week, we managed to visit the islands of Solta, Vis, Hvar and Brac. The water is amazingly warm and there are so many places to explore in this area around Split. We went in a very busy time of year (mid July), so the rule of being somewhere by 2pm to get a good spot definitely stands. We had an issue with our house battery and needed to run the engine A LOT to keep it charged, but otherwise the boat was clean and in a very good condition. The swim platform at the back was also a big win - so much fun. We were 8 people on the boat and the boat still felt spacious. The interior and exterior common areas are huge and things didn't feel cramped at all. The boat is set up well for the med.

If you are considering a Sail Croatia trip, take the plunge and go! We absolutely loved our experience from start to finish. (We departed Dubrovnik on July 4 and ended in Split - Explorer.) The itinerary was the perfect combination of beautiful destinations, swimming, adventure, culture, food, and plenty of time to relax and enjoy the incredible Adriatic coastline. What really made the trip special, though, was the experience of traveling with a small group and the dedicated crew. Of our 31 travelers, 11 were international (Scottish, British, Spanish, Australian, South African), with the rest from the US - and all were awesome humans! With Josip as our guide, and the Salve Di Mare crew caring for us all week, we enjoyed every minute with all our new friends. And the ship is perfection! The trip was well organized, while still feeling relaxed and adventurous. We came home with memories we'll never forget and friends we hope to see again. Five stars without hesitation!
