Amazing Holiday

Amazing Holiday!!! The crew of the Katarina were wonderful! It was a great pace of travel. Morning swim stops never disappointed and were very relaxing. After lunch was explore time on the various islands. Our host, Vicko, always made sure that we were well informed of things to do including dining suggestions. When the majority of us asked to go to the Blue Caves and do other activities as a group, he made it happen. Can’t wait to do it again!!

Best holiday ever!

Absolutely loved this holiday. The ship was immaculate, crew were amazing, with special note to Vedran our cruse guide. He was so lovely and very funny, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely swim stops, beautiful islands. We were also blessed with such lovely fellow passengers. What an amazing experience. Would definitely recommend. Would love to do it all again!

Excellent holiday

It was 5 star luxury with personalised touches to make me feel valued. The staff never stopped trying to please. The visits organised as part of the experience were informative and added to the beauty of the islands visited.Would recommend to anyone to go on this family run cruise

A brilliant holiday

From start to finish nothing was too much trouble for our tour guide & crew. The itinerary & a previous cruise with Sail Croatia made us return. What an experience. Our yacht was amazing. We enjoyed high quality food. Our tour guide was knowledgable and the tours enlightening. We wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Special thanks to Captain Ivan and his crew. For making our stay so enjoyable.. Ivana how do you remember everything !!!

Amazing trip

This was the most incredible trip. The Olimp was spotless, the captain and crew amazing! Good food and made lifelong friends. The swim stops were such a highlight! I’ll never forget the blue water! Thank you for an unforgettable week.

The Best Cruise

This was one of the best holidays we have ever had and we have travelled a great deal. The cruise incorporated excursions and fit in plenty of relaxation time. Our daily swim stops were my favourite. Dino, our cruise director, provided us with all the information we needed and was such a character, making us all feel comfortable and relaxed. Dino was helpful and nothing was too hard for him to do or assist. The ship crew were fantastic. Our rooms were spotless, our food amazing and the girls who worked on the bar and serving were so polite and helpful. I can’t wait to do a cruise again!

Once in a life time

It was an amazing adventure. Very relaxing. Boat was very comfortable. The island stops were great as well as the swim stops along the way. Would recommend to others.

Glorious swimming and sailing

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Was impressed with the Olimp: impeccably maintained, everything gleaming, spick-and-span, and the whole crew were friendly & helpful, and Vedran is a star organiser! Our lunches were all delicious. .The breakfast buffet was sufficient except for the "orange juice" which neither looked nor tasted as if it had been near a real orange. Breakfast was too short, and too early. Should last until at least 10am, Also I'd have liked the option to eat on the outside deck. When at sea who wants to be in an enclosed space.? The highlight of the trip was swimming. But I wanted more & longer swim stops. Most were only 1 hour - not enough to enjoy repeatedly jumping into that gorgeous turquoise sea! I'd have also appreciated more time actually sailing, not moored in a port. The expeditions were at the hottest time of day, so I mostly opted out and relaxed on the ship's cushions in the breeze - that upper deck lounging area was a perfect touch of luxury!

Holiday

It was amazing. All went smoothly. Loved the ship, the crew and the cruise director Nikos. Would definitely do again. Loved Croatia

- Rita, 23/06/2026 20:07, Travelled with Friend/s

A perfect cruise

The booking advisers were very helpful and available to talk to on the phone and the process efficient. The cruise along the Dalmation Coast was relaxing and well planned, The boat was very clean, the crew fantastic and excellent meals were served at lunch time. The Cruise director kept us informed of the programme every day by briefings after lunch and information on the WhatsApp group. There was nothing I can fault about this holiday and would recommend it highly

Cruise comments

Our holiday was great, and our rep Vicko was very good . The boat was comfortable and clean,the food was excellent . My only complaint is that on Sunday we were thrown off one and a half hours. Before our airportbtransport arrived In a heat;of 33 and told to go to a cafe down the road which was closed and the seats wired up which with luggage is unacceptable. Caroline Cornell

Idyllic cruise

A wonderful combination of relaxation on deck with interesting town visits with guided tours. The boat, Esperanza, was perfect, cabins spacious and excellent facilities. The crew were friendly and very efficient and the chef provided top quality meals. A daily swim in the sea was much appreciated. Dino, our tour rep, kept us informed verbally and by text so we all knew the itinerary for the day. His English was good and he kept us laughing and happy! A great job! The only change would be to have a buffet lunch from 12.00 to 2.00 rather than a 3 course lunch at a set time. Also a bigger TV screen in the salon would help presentations which were very informative. We would certainly recommend Sail Croatia.

Unforgettable Experience

As I say unforgettable. From the Luxury of Yacht Olimp, our lovely friendly Captain and his team on board to the islands and destinations of Dubrovnik and Split. The swim stops were lovely and the food in board was excellent. We only had a few hours of daylight at each destination and I would have preferred dinner on board rather than a three course lunch. I would like to either get off the boat and swim or discover the islands more and do more walking. The only issue we had on board was the water heating system was intermittent and you didn’t know if you was going to get a hot or cold shower.

Mrs

A brilliant holiday on Queen Jelena with an outstanding representative on board in the name of Vicko. Very comfortable cabin and good food. The crew were very polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend Sail Croatia.

Sensational Journey

One word: GREAT! From the moment we stepped into this beautiful yacht, it's HOLIDAY. All cabins were filled and the 36 people just mixed well with one another since day one. The yacht offers generous space for us to spread and enjoy either our private moments or sun bathing. Staff was excellent.

Wonderful relaxing Dalmation Cruise

This was a beautiful ship that was very professional. We had nice lengthy status at each port with stunning swim stops.

What an amazing vacation

Truly a trip of a lifetime. Croatia is gorgeous and this is the best way to really get a glimpse of this wonderful country. The staff of the Katarina were amazing and ensured that we had an exceptional experience. The food, service, absolutely everything was top notch. Not to be missed experience.

A cruise of a lifetime.

Elegance cruise. ESPERANZA No words can explain how wonderful this cruise was. It was a once in a lifetime experience for us. We travelled with 8 people and the boat only had 20 cruisers. It was like our own private cruise ship. I REALLY DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE BAD REVIEWS!!!!!! DO NOT LISTEN TO THEM. THEY ARE KAREN’S!!!!! FOOD: A+ ROOM A DIETARY RESTRICTIONS A+ BOAT CLEANLINESS A+ STAFF A+ DAILY SWIM STOPS A+ COMFORT A+ SUGGESTIONS: Bring a water bottle. They provide a water cooler for you to fill up your water. Bring water shoes if you want to go to the beach, because the beaches are pebbles no sand, and there are sea urchins. They do not provide lifejackets for the swim stops, If you’re not a good swimmer, I bought an inflatable one on Amazon that worked terrific for me to paddleboard. They do not provide blowup water toys so if you want to be floating out in the water, bring your own. Lots of people brought snorkelling gear

Unforgettable Luxury Experience

After discovering Sail Croatia a few months ago—and reading countless glowing reviews on TripAdvisor—I decided it was time to add island-hopping on a superyacht to my bucket list! I’m so glad I did, because this cruise turned out to be one of the best experiences of my life. After decades of “research,” I’ve finally found my favourite type of holiday—and my preferred way to travel! The MV Katarina, along with everyone on board (guests and crew alike), was completely my vibe. 🫶🏻 I’d always dreamed of a holiday like this, and it exceeded every expectation. The crew were outstanding. A huge thank you to Captain Ivan, to Zeljko & Karlo the talented chefs, Ivana and Karlo in the bar and restaurant, Petra in housekeeping, the engineers & deck crew. A very special mention must go to our cruise director Anita. Her warmth, enthusiasm, hard work & attention to detail made the experience truly special & unforgettable. Thank you to everyone at Sail Croatia.

Best holiday

The holiday was amazing. The lunched were 5 star!!. But I think the coffee could be better and there should be more swim toys and also it would be nice to have yoga mats! But, it was a magical week that we will remember forever!!!

Sail Croatia: Elegance

From pre-boarding to waiting for different transportation upon departure, the experience was seamless. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with my family and other passengers on the boat. Our cruise manager Dino did amazing with constant and clear communication, being available for anything we needed whenever, and the knowledge and pride in their country to share with all of us. I was the youngest on the group by 40 years yet I still had such a fun time at the swim spots and islands we visited. The food was great, crew did amazing with everything and I was thoroughly comfortable throughout my entire stay. Highly recommend and I will be back with more friends and family in the future!

Small boat cruise

My holiday with Sail Croatia was excellent. I had never been on a cruise before, but would highly recommend the experience! Full buffet breakfast, 4 course lunch daily, daily morning swim stop, and an optional afternoon excursion daily

Beautiful personalised cruise

Sailing with Sail Croatia has been a wonderful experience for my husband and I, and our 2 travelling companions. The cabins are very comfortable, the facilities on Romantic Star are absolutely beautiful, from the comfortable Lounges on the spa deck, the seating on the back deck, the dining room and bar, there are many places to relax and take in the views. The Croatian coast is very beautiful, and each and every town is extremely well set up for tourists, plenty of cafes and restaurants. The Croatian people are very polite and helpful, and very eager to work and make the most of their six month tourism season. The entire experience was excellent.

Amazing Sail to Croatia Islands

10 out of 10! I was very impressed with this cruise. The boat Katarina was better than expected. The Crew was very friendly and accommodating. I enjoyed meeting the Captain and hearing about his passion for his boat & team. Our tour manager Anita was delightful. She asked questions and modified the day depending on what we wanted to do. Swim stops were beautiful. The room and food was better than expected. I would highly recommend this trip!

Fantastic Cruise!!

My husband and I had a fantastic time on this cruise. Croatia is a beautiful country and what a perfect way to see it for first time. A great itinerary - nice mix of organized activity and free time. Swim stops were amazing. Dino and the crew went out of their way to ensure we were safe and well looked after. Dino had recommendations, solutions, ideas, suggestions for everything we could have wanted or needed. The Captain’s dinner and group dinner in Žrnovo village were extra special. The walking tour with Nik in Žrnovo was a fascinating view into traditional village life years ago - we could have listened to him all evening. Terrific food on board! We had a great group of travel companions and left the cruise with new friends and memories for a lifetime.

Amazing trip!

Our trip was amazing! We enjoyed the itinerary, the swim stops, and the food. Our cabin was comfortable for the week. The small group of passengers made it easy to socialize. Karla from Sail Croatia made it fun and she was always willing to help. We loved visiting Croatia and highly recommend this cruise.

Croatian Paradise

Our 7 days on Esperanza were wonderful from Karla our tour leader, to our esteemed captain who took us safely to port each day with an eye on the weather and our safety in mind. The breakfasts and lunches each day were delicious with excellent care from the bar/wait staff. The crew members were quick to help and got us docked with minimum fuss and our housekeeper kept our cabins tidied each day. The islands visited were delightful and made one want return one day. Karla gave us excellent information about each port and island and was willing to assist in every way.

Memorable trip!

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our week on the Esperanza from Dubrovnik to Split. The crew is exceptional. They can't do enough. The islands we visited were charming. Not too crowded. The swim stops at these remote locations were beautiful (though the water was chilly). The food on board was good and plentiful.

Words cannot express the wonderful experience we had on the Sail Croatia Olimp. The people were warm and friendly and went way out of their way to provide top notch service. Always friendly, available and accommodating, we felt so well cared for. The food was incredible, ans we always felt safe wherever we went, We had swim stops, history tours, and rest time. Being on the turquoise blue Adriatic Sea and relaxing in the sun made it the perfect holiday. Don’t hesitate to book a trip on the lovely and well maintained yacht with these beautiful people. 🇭🇷🛥️

Olimp Elegance cruise

Our cruise was amazing! Vicko was extraordinary! Always smiling, so friendly & respectful & fun ! His port talks were interesting, he was very knowledgeable about Croatia. He had a great sense of humour and absolutely nothing was a problem! 10/10 The captain George was so friendly & approachable. Always smiling! Our swim stops were brilliant! I loved the way George spoke to us all and made sure we were enjoying our cruise. 10/10 too! We had cabin 1 which was spacious & comfortable. Housekeeping did a great job. Linda at the bar was helpful & obliging organising my gluten free food. She always had a ready smile and really friendly. She’s an asset to the team . The male crew were friendly & chatty which was lovely. Amelie (I think that’s her name) at the bar could be a little terse so I always waited for Linda if I needed anything. Overall I would definitely recommend that particular cruise to friends. I hope Vicko & the other crew I mentioned get credit &recognised for their work

Ms

I enjoyed the cruise itinerary and the ship was very nice. Unfortunately other cruise attendees were obnoxious and inconsiderate. the ship staff seemed to favor the needs of these individuals, making the overall experience unpleasant at times. I chose an Elegance cruise expecting a different environment. Even other cruise ships were complaining about our “party ship”

Don't wait book this ASAP

My holiday was legendary. As a solo traveler, I expected to be the mysterious lone wolf on the boat… but the crew and passengers immediately adopted me like a long‑lost cousin. Suddenly I had a whole squad, plus the freedom to wander off whenever my main‑character energy demanded a solo montage.My guide, Dino, was an absolute icon. If you get paired with him, congrats—you basically won the Croatian lottery. Every stop came with great suggestions, optional group dinners, and zero pressure. I even left with friends I’m now morally obligated to visit.And the food and wine? Outrageously good. Every meal tasted like someone’s grandmother blessed it, and the local wines were so delicious I briefly considered becoming a Croatian vineyard apprentice.Croatia is almost offensively beautiful, and having a local guide makes everything smoother and way more fun. The crew, the food, the wine, the swim stops—chef’s kiss. Paddle boards, snorkel gear, curated stops… all amazing.If you’re debating this

All around Excellent Trip

I just returned from a week of sailing from Split to Dubrovnik on the Esperanza with Klara and crew. From start to finish this was a 5 star vacation. The staff, the food, the ports, the experience, the other passengers were exceptional and I highly recommend this trip. I went with 6 friends to celebrate a milestone birthday and it will definitely be a trip for the books!! Klara is the BEST at what she does!
