We were very well looked after by the crew and Lola our tour guide was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. The boat was very well maintained and clean.

We've just had an amazing week on Esperanza cruising round the Croatian Islands. We did Split to Split South. It was 5 stars all round! The boat was beautiful, the crew where outstanding and couldn't do enough for us, the group of passengers were great and the scenery just superb. The Dalmatian Coast is stunning and very stop was special in it's own way. We will definitely be cruising with Sail Croatia again and can't recommend them enough. I will say, please be aware of the expected tipping!

From Day one we knew this was going to be a great experience. Very welcoming staff, comfortable and roomy cabin. And the food was amazing. Our chief Dino was so helpful and gave us great advice on excursions. Out swim stops in the beautiful blue Adriatic were amazing. We have made life long friends and would highly recommend the Salve Di Mare.

We loved every minute of our cruise and it felt that we were on a luxury charter cruise, visiting amazing places, architecture. The wine tasting at every destination was brilliant and interesting. The food on board was excellent and top quality. Our tour manager Ivana was excellent and very friendly and informative, and made sure we had the best time. The captain and crew were all very helpful and made sure we were safe and well looked after. The cabin was very comfortable, clean and quiet. I would certainly go on another trip with Sail Croatia again!

Excellent crew and Cruise Director. Our route and itinerary along the Dalmatian Coast, including visits to the islands with their beautiful towns (such as Split, Dubrovnik and Hvar) was well planned and spectacular, Quiet, easily accessible moorings overnight. I also very much enjoyed the swim stops. The yacht, Esperanza, is well maintained and comfortable. Delicious onboard food. Very lucky with our travelling companions.

Great company Awesome crew Wonderful food Perfect locations and flexibility Ease of locating the vessel with live maps. Simple check in and boarding process Proactive host ( Lola) was always available and super helpful. Swim stops most days in perfect locations. Organised excursions if you wanted or just good old reading and relaxing on the top deck. Simple tab system onboard with one payment on checkout to settle. Thank you all for a trip to remember Des & Claire

The cruise was absolutely outstanding. Having ready reviews we were expecting a tiny cabin however we were more than happy with the size of room and bathroom. The storage space was a really nice surprise. The daily routine of breakfast, time to relax, swim stop & then lunch onboard before next destination made for a very relaxing week. Being summer and the long days we had plenty of time to explore each destination we stopped at. Korcula & Stari Grad were favourite stops!

Dino and the crew of salve di mare made for a perfect week! Thank you!
- Natalie, 14/07/2025 15:48, Travelled in a Couple
All staff working on the ship were amazing! Extremely friendly, accomodating and ensured everyone had the best time. The ship itself was really decent and the top deck was elite for relaxing in the sun and partying. Our tour guide was really informative and took us to some really amazing clubs and activities.
- Paula, 14/07/2025 14:20, Travelled Solo
This was my first time to Croatia, and I am so glad that we used Sail Croatia. It was a great way to see some of the islands, and the explorer cruise was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxing. The crew were so lovely and helpful, and our tour manager Dino was responsive and offered great advice. I would recommend this cruise!
- Gill, 14/07/2025 09:52, Travelled in a Couple
We had the best experience with Sail Croatia! Our guide, Barbara, was so knowledgeable and full of positive energy. She made sure we were always informed and having the best time possible. You could tell she genuinely cared about creating a great experience for everyone on board! The entire crew was amazing and friendly, professional, and always going above and beyond to keep things running smoothly. The boat was clean and comfortable and the food was delicious!
- V, 14/07/2025 01:48, Travelled in a Couple
Hana was an excellent guide! The rest of the staff were so friendly, kind, and accommodating. The boat was clean and the rooms were extremely comfortable! And the food was FANTASTIC! Loved this trip so much!
- Lexi, 12/07/2025 18:22, Travelled Solo
I had such a good time doing sail Croatia onboard Tvrdi. Everyone was so lovely, open and kinda and our guide Marin and all the staff on board were so organised and made everything very easy. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Would definitely do it again!
- Olivia , 11/07/2025 14:51, Travelled Solo
Had a really experienced guide in Johnny he made sure everyone had the best trip possible and was also very knowledgeable. He made sure all the passengers were well looked after. The rest of the crew were amazing and ensured everything ran smoothly. Such an amazing experience and a great way to see lots of places in Croatia.
- Millee, 11/07/2025 08:33, Travelled in a Couple
I loved our rep Francesca and the whole crew on the boat, especially the waitress Ivana. The excursions were very fun as well
- Catriona, 10/07/2025 19:17, Travelled Solo
I loved all the rides...and the electric bikes were wonderful. We had excellent guides: Guide Ana gave us some great history information for of all the places we toured. Guide Andre kept the pace going and prepared us very well for each phase of the bike ride. The food was ok but needs to be updated. The salad lunch buffet was the best meal served. Guest wants light food--not soups when the temperature is hot outside or creme cake desserts at the end of every meal. . Food was tasty but the chef needs to cook for 2025--NOT back in the 1980! Otherwise--excellent trip and I will highly recommend the trip to all my friends. I would go on another but at a different location.
- Joy , 10/07/2025 15:08, Travelled in a Couple
My partner and I spent 8 days cruising around Croatia on the Tempera boat, the staff were all incredibly friendly and attentive (and excellent chefs) and our trip manager Cal really made sure we had the best possible holiday. If you’re unsure whether to do a sail Croatia or not - let this be your sign to DO IT!
- Erica, 10/07/2025 14:58, Travelled in a Couple
Sail week was incredible week! So well organized and the optional group dinners were definitely a great add :)
- Abby, 09/07/2025 21:14, Travelled Solo
sail week was an amazing way to see so many beautiful places in Croatia I likely wouldn’t have been able to on my own. But what really made the week amazing was the amazing crew on the Zaramaris and our incredible tour leader Clara. Nothing was too much for these guys, no request or question was annoying to them or onerous - happy and willing to help above and beyond every time. Sure you could take the ferry to many of the places we visited but you would miss out on genuine connection and friendship.
- Jaime, 09/07/2025 19:27, Travelled Solo
We loved so much about the week and are so thankful that we were able to participate on the Explorer Cruise. The ship, Almissa, crew, and tour manager, Dino, made sure that the passengers could experience the beauty of Croatia. The swim stops in the morning were some of our favorite moments of the day - peaceful, turquoise glimmering water! Having the option to do or not do excursions or to take recommendations make the trip customizable for each couple, family or group on board. I still can’t believe how lucky we were to have an experience like this!
- Elizabeth , 09/07/2025 14:28, Travelled in a Couple
Just returned from a cycling cruise with Sail Croatia and it exceeded every expectation. The experience was seamless, adventurous, and full of heart. Huge shoutout to our incredible guides, Tonka and Sanja — a true dream team. Tonka’s biking expertise and Sanja’s rich regional knowledge elevated every moment. Their chemistry, energy, and care made the journey unforgettable. The onboard crew was just as fantastic — thoughtful, attentive, and always ahead of our needs. They found incredible swim spots and created a welcoming, relaxed vibe from day one. The group dynamic was a joy thanks to Tonka and Sanja’s humor and warmth — we bonded fast and felt like family. And the food? Outstanding. Fresh, flavorful, and crafted with care. This trip struck the perfect balance of challenge, culture, and comfort. I can’t recommend it enough — especially if you’re lucky enough to have Tonka and Sanja as your guides.

This cruise came highly recommended by a friend who has been twice and is already planning a third trip. It was such a spectacular trip! The pace was just what we needed. Breakfast and briefing in the morning, three-course meal at lunch. Swim stop in a protected area on our way to the next port. And then afternoon and evening in the town. We could be on our own or participate in one of several offered excursions while at port. We slept at port and then moved toward the next location. The sites were beautiful! The crew was amazing! They really made the difference ensuring that our trip was five-star. The food was absolutley delicious and more than we could eat! The room was very comfortable, although other than sleeping, we preferred to be on deck with fellow passengers and the crew. This was the perfect way to see multiple places in the lovely Croatia without having to navigate trains, etc.
- Holly, 09/07/2025 14:12, Travelled in a Couple
The whole crew worked so hard all week. Captain “big daddy” was a delight to chat to and his dog Daisy was our on board mascot. Every meal on board was amazing and well balanced, chef did such a good job. Charlie was so much fun behind the bar, especially when that bell rang. I loved waking up every day and just chucking on a bikini and laying in the sun, drink in hand and then jumping in the water to cool off. Then happy hour on board at the bar with our whole group as pres before heading out to sus out the local nightlife and have a boogie. Our group was so much fun and we left feeling like a family. Louvre was so amazing too highlighting the local best spots and even gave us a demo how to catch and eat sea urchins. He felt like an older brother who got into the vibe of the whole group and had fun with us but also was there when we needed someone responsible to turn to for advice. Honestly the best week ever and the be at way to explore Croatia whilst having fun in the sun!!
- Kim, 09/07/2025 11:50, Travelled Solo
Sail week was the best fun ever. It would not have been possible without our tour guide Sasa. He went ABOVE & BEYOND every single day. He treated us instantly like his friends, which made us feel super comfortable from day 1. If anyone gets lucky enough to have Sasa on the boat with them, you’ll be in for the best week ever. What a dream trip and 100% would recommend.
- Tayla, 09/07/2025 08:37, Travelled Solo
We sailed in June on the Dubrovnik return itinerary with family and friends, The week was very enjoyable. The crew on the Colombo were terrific. Great food, great service and we really enjoyed our time on the boat. Our Sail-Croatia guides Mate and Ilona were excellent. They were very engaging, shared terrific stories and really made the trip enjoyable. The hikes were sometimes challenging (rocky, steep terrain), but there was great teamwork and we always ended with beautiful views. I have already shared many recommendations for this trip with family and friends. Thanks!
- Kelly, 08/07/2025 23:03, Travelled in a Couple
The week with Sail Croatia was awesome. Lola was an amazing tour manager, she was well organised, a great communicator, very knowledgeable and friendly. The boat Salve di Mare was a beautiful ship, the rooms felt more spacious than I expected, which was great as I was travelling solo and sharing with another guest. The whole week was amazing, we spent the mornings swimming at various secluded swim stops, which I absolutely loved! The afternoons and evenings were for exploring the towns. Lola and the crew were excellent at planning our stops to ensure we arrived at the best time to avoid crowds if possible. For example we left early to get to the Blue Cave first thing to avoid the cues. I would definitely recommend sailing with Sail Croatia!
- Anna, 08/07/2025 20:45, Travelled Solo
The ship was stunning and kept so clean at all times. The tour Guide we had - Ivan- was fantastic and so much fun and very witty. The crew onboard the Ship Olimp were superb and so professional. The chef prepared wonderful meals and never dropped the ball. The wait staff were brilliant and the maid onboard was just so adorable and such a delight. They all did a remarkable job and kept an eye on all clients when at our swim stops. Safety was always first and the cabin we had was great. Our most memorable part of our holiday in Croatia. Thank you to all who made us so welcome and for all the new friends we have made. Would recommend to anyone looking to experience life on the water and this stunning destination.
- Kym & Phil , 08/07/2025 14:20, Travelled in a Couple
We have just completed Split to Dubrovnik on the beautiful Olimp. From the moment we boarded to the end we felt welcomed,, indulged and included. Our guide Ivan was there every day with all information needed and his fabulous humour set us up for the day. The crew were amazing and ensured we were very well looked after from swim stops, to daily meals, drinks & spotless rooms. Thanks to our captain for steering this beautiful ship
- Sue, 08/07/2025 11:40, Travelled in a Couple
Our Elegance trip was fabulous. Our tour leader Ivana was exceptional giving great information about each destination and keeping us well informed thru daily briefs and what’s app messages. All the crew, the food, rooms and boat was immaculately maintained. The swim stop locations were amazing. Cannot fault anything about this trip.
- Linda, 08/07/2025 11:16, Travelled in a Couple
We had such a relaxing and lovely week on the Olimp. Every morning a swim stop in some gorgeous location, then a delicious lunch and then a visit to another stunning island or town. Our friendly, helpful and very funny cruise director, Ivan, made it even more special. Highly recommend if you want a way to see the gorgeous Croatian coast from the sea, without dragging your luggage everywhere! The boat itself is very well-appointed and the stateroom was very comfortable. Highly recommend!
- Rebecca, 08/07/2025 10:59, Travelled in a Couple
The yacht was family owned and operated by they took great pride in keeping their yacht immaculately clean. Service was excellent. After each days swim stop, we went to the sun deck, where a crew member was there to offer a drink.
- Susan , 08/07/2025 10:05, Travelled in a Couple
If you're even. considering a SailCroatia cruise, the Elegance cruise was fabulous!! This was our first, and we are now hooked! Ivana was our tour manager. She was warm, professional, so knowledgeable, and always helpful! We were always prepared with the information we needed for each day, excursion, and activity. It couldn't have gone any smoother for us! The entire crew was fantastic, and they all went out of their way to ensure a perfect holiday for everyone on the cruise! Truly a special trip, thanks to SailCroatia, and the entire crew!!
- Shari, 08/07/2025 08:56, Travelled in a Couple
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
- Riana Coshott, 08/07/2025 08:50, Travelled Solo
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 crew on Katarina were very helpful, hardworking and friendly. The Tour Director gave informative presentations and was approachable for help with our queries. The boat was immaculately clean and served us very well as our home for 7 nights. There was a good feeling of camaraderie amongst the other passengers. I liked the fact we were from different corners of the world. Their friendliness made our holiday a great one to remember. A highlight of my holiday were the swim stops in secluded bays of refreshing clear water. We visited some wonderful places.

Croatia is absolutely stunning and I cannot imagine a better way to explore the Dalmatian coast. The trip was a perfect mix of relaxing and activities. The daily swim stops were so much fun, with opportunity to kayak and paddle board. The crew were amazing and so attentive and Callum the tour leader was exceptional. He gave amazing advice and recommendations of places to visit for meals, points of interest and gelato! I met some incredible people and made friends for life. Would 100% recommend to anyone thinking of doing this.
- Lucy , 06/07/2025 08:28, Travelled Solo
I had a fantastic time on the Elegance cruise through Sail Croatia! The highlights were the swim stops in the gorgeous Adriatic Sea, the local dinner and wine tasting in Stari Grad, and the mix of both small towns and bigger towns on the route. Vicko, our host, was the perfect mix of friendly, knowledgeable and helpful! Croatia is a beautiful country, and as a solo traveler Sail Croatia was a great way to experience it!

Marin was not only an incredible guide but also an incredible person!!! He was intelligent, kind and honest to all of us!! We all loved him and he made our trip feel safe, fun and very organised. The crew were also amazing!! Especially Matej and Ivan. The balance between chill time, excursions and partying was perfect and I can’t recommend it enough.
- Charlotte, 04/07/2025 12:50, Travelled in a Couple
Still not over how incredible this week was! Sailing Croatia was beyond beautiful, but it was Marine who truly made it next level. He wasn’t just our host he was our hype man, our party starter, our go-to for everything. Marine, you are seriously one of a kind and we LOVE you. You made everyone feel included and brought so much good energy from day one. I can’t thank you enough. And IVAN!! The biggest legend. So kind, so helpful, always up for a laugh. You made every moment easier, better, and way more fun. If you’re thinking of doing this trip, stop thinking and book it. And PRAY you get Marine as your host. Love you all forever. THANK YOU 🥹💖

We had a truly unforgettable experience with Sail Croatia on Katarina! This family-owned, new boat is so well run, with thoughtfully designed rooms and efficient daily cleaning. Everything on the boat was so great and well organized that we could fully enjoy the uniqueness of each island we visited. The beautifully planned itinerary balanced daily swims at stunning beaches with island visits and activities, offering great variety and a perfect mix of relaxation and exploration. The buffet breakfast and amazing lunches were a highlight, with fresh, delicious food fueling our adventures. The warm onboard atmosphere made it easy to connect with fellow travelers and form new friendships. A special mention to Mia, our exceptional event planner, whose knowledge of each island felt authentic and whose clear daily presentations and restaurant recommendations made everything smoother. We highly recommend Sail Croatia on Katarina for a joyful, enriching sailing experience.
- Margaret, 04/07/2025 10:06, Travelled in a Couple
