Our trip aboard the Olymp was exceptional in every way. From the moment we boarded, we were impressed by the staterooms, crew, food, and itinerary. Our tour guide, Ioana, was fabulous. Very professional and organized, but also appropriately snarky and accommodating. The kitchen, bar, and service crews were equally fantastic. Our cabins were cleaned daily, and the chef accommodated even the smallest request, like keeping the stuffed French toast on the menu. We particularly enjoyed the itinerary, which was thoughtful and had a variety of options that accommodated the diversity of our fellow travelers. Every single island was memorable. .From sharing our morning coffee to cheering on the bravest to get in the cold water, our shared experience with the other passengers was delightful, and we walked away with many new friends. It was really an amazing experience. In fact, our WhatsApp thread is still going strong, even weeks later. What a truly wonderful experience.

As someone who isn’t a cruise person, the Romantic Star was the perfect size and experience to see parts of Croatia. *Dino Made All the Difference Our cruise manager, Dino, was exceptional. He kept us informed with clear daily summaries and thoughtful recommendations, always available for questions and/or to help guests. He went above and beyond, arranging special dinners (like our anniversary at a sought-after spot in Dubrovnik) and unforgettable experiences—the farm dinner at Hora Hvar was a highlight, with amazing food and wine. *A Warm, Welcoming Group The best part? My fellow passengers were amazing people from all over, and together we formed a tight-knit, fun-loving group. Their warmth and camaraderie made every moment memorable and truly magical. It was a week of laughter. *Top-Notch Crew The crew was outstanding—accommodating dietary needs, keeping the boat spotless, and always friendly. Everything ran smoothly. I’d book again!

The trip was easy to book, with lots of helpful tips and instructions on how to find to the ship in Split harbour. The itinerary was just perfect, island hopping everyday and stopping for swimming while spending a relaxing morning sailing and sunbathing on deck. Our tour host, Dino, made our trip truly memorable as well as the other guests we spent our week with. Dino was amazing, such a delightful guy. Our group is still messaging each other on the WhatsApp chat that Dino set up. We were informed each day of what to expect, what we could see, what time we were setting off, where to eat, drink, best places for anything that any guest was looking for. The holiday was a delightful balance of being well looked after whilst freedom to see/do as much as we wanted. Remember to bring more long-sleeved clothing if travelling in May as evenings are cool. Lunch was a tasty 3-course cooked meal which I would have preferred as a buffet selection personally. Definitely recommend the trip!

Forget those huge cruise ships THIS is the way to travel. Vendrán our guide always made perfect suggestions but you can do as much or as little as you want. Great swim stops every day and lovely clean cabin and boat made for a comfortable week. With fresh cooked food and only 18 on board this was a revelation. I will be booking again. Loved it!

Dino our cruise manager was exceptional! He was friendly, knowledgeable,,patient, helpful and good humoured for the entire week. We were a small group that could have made things difficult but he expertly drew the group together and was fundamental in ensuring the weeks success. The boat was beautiful and well kept, the Captain and his crew made us feel well cared for and the meals prepared on board were delicious!! All in all a really excellent time!! We will certainly recommend.

Dino immediately set the tone of our journey — enjoy our wonderful country, learn our history , be safe and ask any question. He was very experienced. The ship was very nice, food was fine , crew was nice, cabins cleaned great . . . but the real credit goes to our cruise manager , Dino . Without a great cruise manager , this would be a very different journey . He was a good listener , gave great suggestions , used What’s App effectively to stay connected with everyone and was sincere . Bravo.

The Split return to Split itinerary was excellent and allowed us to see many islands and mainland cities.. Dino, the cruise manager communicated clearly, was organized, helpful, enthusiastic and upbeat. He was always available knowledgeable and entertaining.We couldn’t ask for a better manager! Dino guided us to incredible experiences such as the Hora Farm dinner, and also to restaurants and sites in each place we stopped. The crew on the Romantic Star was helpful and professional. The ship was clean and the accommodations were good. I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone traveling to Croatia.

We just completed our 7 day cruise with Sail Croatia aboard the Romantic Star. We made new friends with people from around the world who enjoyed the food, sun, and wine in Croatia as much as we did. What made the trip special was having Dino assigned to our boat as the cruise manager. He was funny, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to book optional dinners and activities that were special and unique experiences. He also providing valuable information and suggestions throughout the day which was immensely helpful. This trip far exceeded our expectations thanks to a wonderful group of guests and Dino and the crew going the extra mile.

Dino. He was subperb. Awesome attitude and enthusiastic. The sights and activities were also wonderful. Food, bedding/linens, and demeanor of serving staff crew members would have very much improved the experience. Dino is a gem and deserves every accolade and reward. Well beyond expectations!

Our group’s ages were mixed, 40s to 80s, 3 generations and 3 nationalities. Cruisers were similar in being interested in where they were and also relaxing. All enjoyed a drink. Group size was good, enabling interactions with a range of people. People met up in wine bars and restaurants to share stories and compare their travels. It made for fun times. Our guide, Klara was great. She gave clear presentations & shared information electronically on the highlights of our next island and what to see and do there. She always answered questions clearly and provided links eg on laundries. Boat spaces were good, most people enjoying the sundeck daily. Swim stops were well organised with easy water access . Range of activities offered was broad. I loved all the islands. They differed in histories, attractions, opportunities and atmosphere.. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was great, Enjoyed the Captain’s dinner, would have liked to hear him speak more about our lovely boat.

We had the greatest experience. From the time we booked our trip, then embarked and met Mia at Port Gruz our Tour Manager, every part of the trip exceeded our expectations. The ship, Olimp, was luxurious in every detail. The Captain and crew were brilliant, nothing was too much trouble and every one of them were kind and courteous. The trip itself was brilliant, Croatia, their islands and stunning coastline are all breathtakingly beautiful. Thanks to Mia and the crew for making our trip so memorable.

We had an amazing time sailing on the Queen Jelena with Sail Croatia!! Our guide, Mia, was wonderful, so knowledgeable on the sites we visited. We loved her! It was a great introduction to small boat cruising and we will definitely do it again. It was a beautiful trip with friends and also loved getting to know our travel mates. We just wish we had more time in some of the ports. Food was great. Accommodations surprisingly nice for small boat. Our favorite was hanging out with friends on the sun deck. The transport to from the boat worked out great too. Thank you Mia and Sail Croatia!! We will sea you again, for sure.

Our tour director, Vedran, and Esperanza's crew provided us with a great experience both on board and on shore. Their hospitality was exceptional, as they made every effort to ensure our experience was outstanding. Passengers from 4 different countries made the trip even more delightful. The weather was perfect for exploring the islands. Food was excellent both on the ship and at our ports of call. Although the May water temperature was cool, swimming off the back of the Esperanza was a daily ritual that made our trip even more memorable. I can't remember the last time I had so much fun. Overall, it was a fantastic experience; I highly recommend it!

We had a wonderful week aboard Esperanza May 18 to 25. Our ship guide, Vedran ('V') was just the best in managing our group of 34 persons; V was an excellent communicator, readily available and always helpful. V kept us laughing and was so much fun, seeming to really enjoy his job. The ship was beautifully appointed; the rooms were spacious with great showers and lots of storage. We appreciated the rooms being cleaned early every day. We also really appreciated the ease of entering and exiting the sea from the ship during our daily swim stops . The quantity and quality of the food was perfect, beautifully presented and professionally served. Hats off to all of the onboard ship staff! We really liked the balance of ship and shore time, feeling that we had a relaxing time but also learned about the local history. The only 2 things we might have liked were an extra salad bar al lunch (long line up for salad) and possibly an optional drink package. Thank you Sail Croatia.

The cruise defied all expectations! The staterooms are comfortable, bathrooms and hairdryers, towels all perfect. Our Crew was amazing—they work hard and were exceedingly generous and kind. Our guide, Ioana, was smart and funny, thoughtful and dependable. The ship Olimp was bougie, bougie. Seriously, we are sailboaters and had no idea how beautiful the Olimp would be. Gleaming! Our group of 8 made fast friends with all of our other traveling companions. Lots of laughter and joviality.❤️ five stars isn’t enough!

I would give Sail Croatia two thumbs up, 10 out of 10, 100% — or whatever else I can say to express just how amazing this experience was! The cruise was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. The crew was top notch — friendly, professional, and always going above and beyond. The food was nothing short of spectacular, with delicious meals that exceeded all expectations. It was truly an unforgettable trip, and I can't say enough great things about the entire experience. If you're thinking about booking with Sail Croatia, do it — you won’t regret it!

Organization, correspondence, accommodations on the boat, and our guide who stayed on the boat and delivered daily short information talks with us were all superb. A couple suggestions.... The village dinner in our Dubrovnik to Split sailing was bery disappointing. Main course definitely weak and very ordinary...pasta with very little beef bits. Also it was so loud in there due to very poor acoustics you could barely have a conversation with the people right across from you. The bedding on our beds on the boat was ok but you should add a second or thicker blanket

My partner and I recently sailed with Sail Croatia alongside a group of 20 friends and acquaintances—and what an unforgettable experience it was! From the moment we stepped aboard, it was clear we were in for something truly special. The other passengers onboard became fast friends. There was a wonderful sense of camaraderie and shared adventure that made every moment even more enjoyable. The crew were outstanding—professional, warm, and attentive. The food was consistently amazing, and the itinerary struck the perfect balance: breakfast and lunch onboard, with plenty of time to explore the stunning ports each day. A special shoutout to our program director, "V," who was a truly delightful human being and played a big role in making this one of the most memorable vacations we’ve ever had. Highly recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a unique, joyful, and well-organized adventure!
