Our boat manager from sail Croatia, Toni, was exceptionally helpful. Not only did he provide us with excellent recommendations for the various places we were visiting in Croatia, but when I was sick and needed help, he was happy to assist me, which I am very grateful for.

It was really good just wish we had longer swim stops and better food
- Ally, 21/07/2025 20:12, Travelled in a Couple
Had an amazing experience on the Big Blue, Francesca was our host and a fantastic one at that! Had a good mix of solo travelers and some groups of friends but in the end we all became a big family. The staff and crew were outstanding and really made the atmosphere inviting, they knew who we were by first name after day 3. Food was incredible and the boat was kept super clean. Couldnt reccomend it more!

We had an amazing experience overall and truly enjoyed every moment of the trip! One of the standout highlights was our guide, Nour. She was absolutely fantastic—extremely well-organised, kind, professional, and always went the extra mile to make sure everyone felt comfortable and informed. Her knowledge and calm, friendly presence really made a difference, and we felt very well taken care of throughout. The excursions were varied and really well thought out, offering a great mix of activities to suit everyone. The rooms were also excellent—clean, comfortable, and a lovely place to unwind at the end of the day. If we had to mention anything for improvement, it would be the price of the drinks on board, which felt a bit high, and we would have loved more opportunities for swim stops, as those moments in the water were some of the most enjoyable. That said, it was a fantastic trip overall and Nour’s guidance truly elevated the whole experience. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

The staff! The staff were lovely and catered to our needs. I went with a couple of friends and we had Lovre and he was great and fully engaged with all of the sail group, couldn’t have asked for better staff. Food was delicious. The showers were less great but overall great trip.

I had such a fun week aboard the Penelopa navigator cruise! From amazing food, stunning scenery, daily swim stops, free time exploring the towns, optional excursions and of course daily happy hour and clubbing, it was a great way to see and experience Croatia. Shout out to our amazing crew especially our bartenders/waiters Charlie and Ivan, our chef Robbie and captain Big Daddy and his wife and dog Daisy who worked hard to make the experience extra special. Grateful for our rep Lovre who kept us all organised and in check. He really came out of his shell by the end of the trip and felt like one of the group, making an effort to have fun and socialise with everyone. My highlights of the week were the buggies in Korcula, the bikes in Mljet national park, the daily swim stops and many of the clubs. Only let down was the boat itself being so old and run down - the below deck rooms were tiny and hot and there were not enough showers for the amount of people on board. Doors did not lock.

Actual boat was a lot of fun but ended up with a 50 euro fine on the way out of Croatia because my stay on the boat wasn’t declared in the different places

Thank you very much for your 3 star review! It is wonderful to hear you had fun onboard one of our cruises. Upon checking with our Operations Team, we learnt that indeed there was a technical issue onboard and the registration sadly didn't go through. We do truly apologise for the inconvenience and we have promptly arranged the refund for the cost of the fine. We do appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again.
The boat itself and bar staff were amazing. The tour guide was late on ship which was fine but when we all boarded she didn’t introduce herself until later that evening and no one knew what was going on a many hours. She only really interacted via WhatsApp to give us a plan of the day but wasn’t until midday so it felt quite unorganised and I didn’t love not knowing what we were doing. She spent a lot of time on her phone, smoking and vaping and wasn’t interactive besides the “crew talk”. I wish it was a bit more organised. However besides that, the bar man kept us up to date always and was very nice and chatty.

Hi there, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us.

We regret to hear that you felt the cruise was not as organised as expected and that your experience with the tour guide didn’t meet your expectations. Your comments are important to us, and we truly appreciate you highlighting these aspects. This is not the standard we strive for, especially as we hold our team to high expectations in both professionalism and guest experience. We have shared your feedback with our Operations Manager for review.

While it’s clear that your personal experience differed, we value your observations and will use them as part of our ongoing efforts to ensure a consistently high standard of guest interaction and communication. Thank you again for your feedback — we’re always looking to improve and truly appreciate your input.
I was on the Afrodita ship with Nora as our guide and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Food was great, good service and was with a good group of people. Only thing was wish we had more time to swim than what we got. The triple room below deck was very small for 3 people so would recommend going top deck or splitting groups.

Hi there, thank you for your review — we’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your week on Afrodita and that your Rep Nora, along with the food and service contirbuted to this. We appreciate your feedback about the triple cabins, and due to the space shared, we do offer a 10% Triple Cabin Discount to help offset this. We hope it helped make things a bit more comfortable. Thanks again for choosing to travel with us, and we’d love to welcome you aboard again in the future!
We loved our experience on Afrodita! Best week, Nora, our guide was great and super helpful with any of our needs or concerns. Only downfall was the triple rooms on the lower deck really dont fit 3 people comfortably!

Sail Croatia was a fantastic way to see the country at an affordable price. Firstly, I got extremely lucky with my guide, Noura. You can tell how well-versed, experienced, and caring she was in every way. I do not think my review would be the same if I had anyone else. The crew on my ship greatly improved the experience as well, the bartender Mateo was extremely fun and flexible, the chef was super talented and accommodating, and the sailor/captain were very friendly and felt like a part of the group. Overall, I’d come again but I would never choose a triplet. Realistically, it is not a triplet room and should not be advertised as such. The downstairs rooms were more spacious as doubles, literally. Claiming the lower bed is viable for two people isn’t ok, and especially frustrating since we had a smaller group and empty beds that could’ve been offered. Also, the party bus should be chartered. Everyone agreed it was a money grab that the company definitely could afford.

Hi there, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Sail Croatia! We’re delighted to hear you had a fantastic time exploring the coastline and that Noura, Mateo and the rest of your crew helped make your trip so memorable. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to them. We're sorry to hear that the Triple room didn't meet your expectations. To help set expectations clearly, our website advises: “On some ships, we also have triple cabins available for guests that are travelling as a group of three and would like to share a cabin. Triple cabins consist of a double bed and a single bunk, and we provide a 10% discount per person for these cabin types. In some Triple cabins, double beds may be slightly smaller to accommodate the additional single bed, meaning these cabins may not be suitable for travellers that require more space. If you would like to book a triple cabin please let us know and we can check availability when you enquire.” All extra costs are indicated in the itineraries on our website, to help customers have an idea of what to expect for their cruise. We hope to welcome you in the future!
My partner and I had a great week on Sail Croatia thanks to Lauren, Mateo and the other crew members. The weather was average but Lauren went above and beyond to maintain morale and organise alternative activities. The crew were very easy-going and friendly and we enjoyed learning about Croatia from them. Our only suggestion is to Sail Croatia directly - we think the itinerary could be improved. The Sail Croatia website states the white water rafting is available on the Split to Dubrovnik tour (which was not the case). We also would have appreciated more time exploring the towns as opposed to spending hours at swim spots.

When they tell sail Croatia is one of the best weeks you’ll experience they aren’t lying!! Met the most amazing people, made the most amazing friends and got to experience some amazing scenery! I’m so grateful for our trip leader Ceili was an absolute legend I felt like she was one of us, she was so helpful, took the time to get to know us all and spent most of her time with us! The crew on the boat were incredible, so friendly, helpful, made sure everyone was happy and also joined us for a good time! So grateful and I couldn’t recommend this enough and I’ll be talking about it for years to come!! Big shout out to the crew on TRVDI you bloody legends thank you for giving us the best experience possible!!!

This trip was seriously one of the best experiences ever! We had an amazing crew, a great group of people and we visited some of the most beautiful places! Our ship was so much nicer and more spacious than we expected, the beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was amazing on those hot days! The swim stops were so beautiful and refreshing and exploring the islands and towns made for a perfect balance of a relaxing and activity filled trip! Dino and the rest of our crew were amazing, they worked so hard to make sure we had the best experience and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. Dino was fantastic, he was so friendly and welcoming and it felt as though he genuinely cared about us, taking our concerns seriously and taking care of any issues that came up.

Had the most insane trip onboard the Pacific. Couldn’t ask for more with our tour guide Dino. He was so helpful and went out of his way to assist us in anything we needed. Even when some of the clubs were closed due to local happenings Dino sourced down the next best places to go and helped make the night the greatest it could be 😌😌

There’s wasn’t as many activities as I though there would be. The food wasn’t great and there was no food to snack on aka chips. I feel like since the towels weren’t drying they probably needed to be changed more often. My towel was wet all the time when showering. Sanja was great, crew were all fabulous. Sanja was well informative on each island and was very honest in which activity was better to do which was great.

I definately think our guide Toni made us having the best time ever, he was really good at making the group become one and making sure that we were all having a great time. I find it admiring to see how quick we was at always answering our texts and questions whether it was late at night or during the day and he always made sure everone was safe and good especially during the party nights. He was a real and honest guide who made sure that our money was spent right and we didn't waste anything, giving us good recommendations of what to do see and eat and what not to do. I wanna thank him and sail croatia for a fantastic week!!

Great way to see the islands and party through Croatia. Katarina our guide was so lovely, helpful and knowledgeable. Food was nothing special but our guide and the experiences they provided made up for it,
- Camille, 09/08/2024 17:08, Travelled with Family
It really depends on the group & crew that makes the trip. The bartender on the boat wasn't the most pleasant and the chef was horrible. I knew going on the boat that the food was not going to be the best but it was horrible. Also, I didn't like how we didn't have to much free time and the swim spots were okay, nothing great either. Overall, the trip was okay.

Honestly the vibe throughout the whole trip was great. We had a fantastic group leader named Clara who offered heaps of activities and the entire trip was just so fun
- Lucy , 07/08/2024 15:47, Travelled with Friend/s
Was very happy with the room, both the bedroom and bathroom were decently sized and had good facilities. The food on the boat was really great, we were never hungry. The crew were kind and hardworking. I wish we could’ve been informed on our swim spots more. The boat would just depart from them without notice so you might miss out or jump in without realising we were about to leave. I think our tour manager could’ve gave us better suggestions on what to do in town. Sail is a great way to travel and I really enjoyed my week!
- Anonymous, 05/08/2024 09:35, Travelled Solo
Sail Croatia really let me down with my experience by not mixing the people on our boat. Out of 30 people there were 29 women (13 of which were one big group that were not very interested in socialising outside of their group) the one male was a partner of the only couple on the boat. I believe variety in people would have most definitely improved everyone's experience. While our tour manager was absolutely lovely and kind I was disappointed with their lack of knowledge of Croatia in general. Unfortunately their inexperience showed when they struggled to comand respect and order when addressing the group. This showed when organising activities or even getting people excited meet up to learn about our beautiful scenic stops. The crew onboard were so lovely and accommodating. The food was great. After stopping at a few ports and seeing the variety in types of Sail Croatia Boats I was also disappointed that when booking I was not given options to upgrade to a boat with better facilities.

The views, food and friends made were amazing! Wanted to say a special thanks to our crew and in particular our trip manager Andro.

Hope to do it all again soon ❤️

Lola our host & the crew were awesome and made us feel very welcome. Lola was very informative and helpful in a range of situations.

I would’ve liked more opportunity on land to explore the islands, especially when we were docked at a port that was not in the town. Or the opportunity to get a water taxi in to explore i.e. Stari Grad.

Sail Croatia was good. To make it better I would suggest more effort is put into the socialising of everyone on board e.g group drinking games, getting to know people etc. guided by the host. Also more time at each destination would be good! Not sooo long at swimming spots. Our host Clara did a good job for her first ever Sail!
- Annebelle , 03/07/2024 10:10, Travelled in a Couple
Overall we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves sailing through the open water and swimming in the most beautiful spots. The boat was charming and the cabins (and en-suite) were clean and spacious enough. We went on numerous excursions (top 3 - canyoning, wine tasting and bike ride) but thought most were overpriced (€20-80) and could have gotten cheaper local deals. Additionally, there were a number of unexpected and unavoidable transfers, taxis/buses to pay for (€6-10 each). Meals on board were tasty, except if you were vegetarian (don’t expect any variety). The crew was polite, yet did not engage with us. The owner, Marjan warmly welcomed us on his ship, made the best pina-coladas & was a sniper at beer pong. Our rep Luiis was the friendliest and funniest guide who made sure we enjoyed ourselves every step of the way. He excels at relating to people and trying to meet guest expectations. Would sail with Marijan and Luiis again, but not convinced of the benefit of the Sail Croatia brand.

Hi Michael,a, thank you for your detailed feedback and for sharing your positive experiences on our trip. We're delighted that you enjoyed sailing around the Adriatic, swimming, the excursions, and the hospitality of Marjan and Luiis. Our Navigator cruises are aimed at those aged 18-39 years, so there will be travellers onboard within this age range. We aim to ensure a good mix on all our ships, athough it depends on who has booked any given date, taking into consideration solo travellers, genders, groups, and couples. Details about excursions are found on our website and the inclusions and further information are provided in our pre-departure materials. Our Sales Team is always available to answer any questions you may have to help with budgeting purposes. We thank you for your comments and we hope that you were able to enjoy your time overall.
I felt throughout the whole trip I was being asked to pay extra for random aspects such as bus transfers, water ferry’s. I feel like I don’t understand where my almost $2000 went. The crew and guide were amazing but all the hidden extra costs are not explained properly. I feel the initial price should be increased or have a lump sum you can do at the start with card instead of having to try get exact cash for everything. We had a ratio of 19 females to 3 males which is just ridiculous. I feel there should be allocated spots for males and females to have an appropriate dynamic. The people I was with were amazing and did save the trip and I really did enjoy myself but the random hassles all throughout the trip really did not make me want to rebook with sail Croatia again.

Hi Jessica, thank you for your feedback and for providing us with 5-star feedback. We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed the crew, guide, and fellow travelers.

I had friends who previously did sail Croatia and told me about all these amazing parties and events . When I got on board and asked my host about these she informed me that the Cave Party in Makasaka wasn’t open and wouldn’t be happening (this was one of the reasons I booked with this company) there was no communication from the company prior to our trip to inform us of this. Even though they knew it wasn’t open as it was start of season. There also was no theme night on board the ship which we were under the impression there would be since it is quite commonly posted on social media amongst participants. We didn’t know anything that was happening until the day of which was stressful and made taking money out become a daily task. I do not like the fact that everything had to be in cash and there was all these extra hidden charges on excursions that were not explained before we left! Overall pretty disappointed in the sail Croatia company. Enjoyed my time but wasn’t as much fun.

Boat was a bit ordinary and not what’s in the photos and videos. Food was okay. Advertised that dinner isn’t included so assumed find something ourselves however it was organised every night which felt like we had strict time lines and did not have much freedom to explore. The dinners organised were overpriced and average. I don’t want to be eating Japanese on my first night in Croatia. I want traditional food and seafood!!! The night clubs we were taken too were small and pretty average and some overpriced!! 11€ for one drink is stupid. I also was charged wrong prices for my drinks on board, I ended up having to pay 30€ extra for drinks when I was just charged wrong. Ceili was amazing though! Best rep we could’ve asked for and she made the week so special! Have made friends for life

Marin was amazing I hurt myself on the trip and he made sure he was there to support me through getting it sorted at the hospital while also making sure everyone was sorted for their activities. He did amazing thinking on his feet when things had to change and we couldn’t do the original plan. The crew were fantastic helped us we everything we asked them and chief made some awesome meals with the BBQ night our favourite. Unfortunately I was disappointed in the fact that clubs weren’t open and we weren’t offered the activities which were advertised. I think that it’s extremely poor to advertise certain clubs that won’t be open at this time of year that we would miss out on but wouldn’t know that till we got on the boat that needs to be fixed as I would have adjusted my dates.

Hi Rorri, Thank you for your 4-Star review, we are happy to hear you had a good time on-board Tuna and that Marin was an amazing addition to the cruise. We're sorry to hear of your disappointment in regards to some of the nightclubs being closed during your cruise. The operating season of external nightclub providers is subject to change and unfortunately, this is out of our control. In this instance, we will always provide an alternative bar/nightclub option for our guests to experience the local nightlife in each destination. We hope to welcome you again in the future.
Great group of people and some awesome experiences. Not all of them were running as it wasn't peak season and we weren't notified about this until the day of. In a whole it was a good time but communication could have been improved

We were on the "Big Blue" ship, and to start with the only negative, the ship was smaller then we anticipated. The Navigator Cruise has 2 or 3 ships you can be put on depending on the price you pay. I would describe the accommodation has a hostel on a boat. However, this did not stop us all from having the best week, I would actually say it helped! Everyone was always together having chats, listening to music on the top deck, jumping from the top deck and making a memorable week for us. Lastly the crew and tour rep were all incredible!!! Highly Recommended 🥳

- Kaylee, 27/05/2024 19:51,
The easy answer...YES. However a bit differently... I would recommend going in peak season so the weather doesn't interfere with your itinerary. Be prepared to spend more money than you think! The party cruise is 110% partying every single day...your liver definitely gets a run for its money. Overall your group makes the experience. As a solo traveler I still had the best time and made so many friends/memories!!!!!!!

I felt like it was almost expected of us to drink every single night, which led to many of us feeling sick and terrible by the end of the week and not actually enjoying the beautiful places we stopped at. I wish there were more non-drinking activities so we could’ve gotten to know everyone better. Sometimes it felt like you couldn’t participate unless you were drinking. Our boat was also definitely one of the cheapest models. If I had a little more detail about what exactly each boat entailed I probably would’ve booked the next level up. That being said, the crew was fantastic and our guide was great.

Hi Julia, thank you for your review! We are pleased to read you were happy with the crew on board and your Sail Croatia Representative, thank you for this. Our Navigator cruises are designed for 18-39 year old travellers looking to socialise, party and meet others, so often some of the guests on board will consume alcohol. This is of course entirely up to each individual. With regards to ship types, the difference between each category can be found on our website and on the Navigator cruise page. I can confirm the Standard ship category you booked is the lowest price and usually aimed at guests on a budget, and usually perfect for travellers backpacking across Europe! Thank you so much for joining us in Croatia this summer.
Sail Croatia was amazing! Trip of a lifetime! I do recommend! Although it was very expensive, the day activities and offered meals on board are very over priced. Although it all is a lot of fun and over all I would do it again!

Had a good time on sail and enjoyed my time sailing through Croatia. Had a great group on board and an amazing sail crew on the boat. However, we got unlucky with wind and rain while sailing which limited swimming and excursions. Also got unlucky with a tour guide who showed little interest in making it a good time on the boat. He had no sense of fun and poor organisation and communication of daily activities. In my time travelling through Europe being on several short and long tours, he was the most disappointing tour guide I’ve ever had. Overall, I was very thankful to have a great group of other travellers on board who were keen to have fun and make best of an average situation.

Hi Courtney, thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We are pleased to know you enjoyed your time in Croatia with your fellow travellers and amazing crew. The safety and well-being of our customers is important to us, and we understand that weather-related itinerary changes are made at times, which can result in limited swimming time - we do hope you were able to enjoy some of the amazing local beaches during the week. We are disheartened to read your comments regarding your Rep as we pride ourselves on having the best local and experienced Reps that provide helpful information and recommendations to enhance your journey, and we are pleased your rep was rated 4.4 out of 5 stars for your week. We thank you for all your comments and we hope that you will consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable cruise experience in the future.
Croatia as a country was amazing and beautiful. However, the sail was disappointing. Our representative was not very engaging and for the price you pay, you don’t get a lot for it. Considering you pay prior, the drinks at the bar are expensive and ‘happy hour’ is only 10% off which isn’t worth it. They offered limited water and if you wanted a bottle of water you had to pay. Even when unwell, there is no bottled water that is accessible and you are not able to bring bottles from off the boat. As a couple, we were given two single beds and other groups of friends that requested single beds were in rooms with doubles. Overall, not worth the price you pay and we weren’t very satisfied and actually left the boat early due to being unwell and not being able to access cold water.

Hi Nikita, thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your time in Croatia and its beautiful coastline. However, we are disappointed to learn of your lack of enjoyment onboard. The drinks prices are set per ship and an estimated price list is available for your perusal via our website. The bedding configurations onboard our Navigator cruises are not confirmed until 1 week prior to departure, and these can either be made up of; bunk bed, twin bed or double bed configurations. I can see that a double bed wasn't requested in this instance. In regards to the water cooler, water is available onboard this boat 24/7 from outside the saloon area and you are welcome to re-use your own water bottle. Upon checking our internal reports, I can see that our Onboard representative had tried to make you as comfortable as possible whilst your partner was unwell by bringing tea and water to your cabin, and even offering further medical assistance - we hope that he has made a full recovery.
