Absolutely loved this Croatian islands cruise. The perfect mix of fun, activities, and relaxation. Met incredible people and genuinely made friends for life. Couldn’t recommend it more.

Best trip of a lifetime thanks to Sail Croatia. The boat, Capitan, crew, chief, cleaning, and all were exceptional. The attention to details and assuring we had what we needed was amazing. This trip could not have gone better.

Couldn’t have had a more perfect experience. Dino and crew of the Queen Jelena were just awesome! The food, views, swim stops, and accommodations were top notch. Only thing more amazing was Croatia itself - what a beautiful country and no better way to see it than aboard a Sail Croatia yacht!!

We went from Split to Dubrovnik over 7 days on Esperanza with our guide Sanja. Not only were the ammenties on the boat outstanding, but the staff, food, and drinks were all 10/10. Sanja was great as well, as she gave the group detailed and informative information about the islands and activites we were doing. Life-changing trip, I want to come back next year!

Positives- The food and dining service were excellent throughout the trip. The information shared about the islands, local attractions, and recommended activities was very helpful and enhanced our experience. Hanna was exceptionally attentive, friendly, and always willing to help with restaurant reservations and excursion bookings. Her assistance was greatly appreciated. Overall, we were very satisfied with our cruise experience and had a wonderful time. Areas for Improvement- We noticed that some staff members were smoking in or near common guest areas. Relocating smoking to designated staff-only areas would help create a more comfortable environment for guests, especially those who are sensitive to cigarette smoke. One bartender, Cesar, came across as less welcoming than the rest of the crew during our interactions. A more friendly and approachable demeanor would further enhance the overall guest experience.

We loved our time with Sail Croatia. When we booked our trip we weren’t sure what to expect. We had never taken a trip on a small boat cruise before and are not really fans of large cruise ships. But from the time we boarded till well after we got off, we completely enjoyed our experience. The crew were attentive and fun. The other passengers were a great mix of personalities. And our cruise director, Klara, kept us both informed and entertained, she even got us a reservation for 21 at Massimo Cocktail Bar on Korčula. I looked forward to the daily swim stops, always at a picture perfect beach, and each town we visited was unique and memorable. I cannot recommend Sail Croatia enough. We are already planning our next trip.

My wife booked trip for our 20 year anniversary -Amazing experience from start to finish and all excursions and plans seemed to function seamlessly like clockwork! Impressive food, stunning locations + lots of swimming! To top it all off we had an stellar crew that treated us like family- thanks to the host Clara, the Captain, Chef and the rest of the crew- Marko, Charlie, Joy, Tino, and my 5 Star bartenders Nano and Martin! :) Also met some great new friends from around the world. Wish the trip lasted longer!!!

We had such a great time! Boat and the crew were perfect! We sailed on the Esperanza on an explorer tour., Clean rooms very spacious and comfortable. Our tour guide Lola was absolutely awesome! Very helpful, made local calls for us to sort out what ever was needed. From breakfast to daily swim stops and then the 3 course lunch made the trip. We traveled with our kids ages 21 and 18, they loved the trip. I really had no complaints, the whole week. The other guests aboard were truly amazing and kind people from Australia, UK and the states. Just a whole lotta fun relaxing with like minded folks.

- Jerry, 03/07/2026 04:15, Travelled with Family

We travelled on the Tempera Explorer from Dubrovnik to Split. Our guide Lauren was both professional, informative and fun from the 1st day to the last. Meals could not be faulted nor either the bar staff or chefs. We met amazing people on board sharing swim stops in exquisite blue water, daily activities such as biking, beaches, wineries, apertivo’s and dinners in the varied islands of Croatia. 10/10 experience, thank you Lauren once again.

- Jeremy, 01/07/2026 15:09, Travelled with Family

This was are second Sail Croatia cruise. The first was fantastic. Out second was on the Contessa, and it is a new boat. As with some new things, such as homes, boats, there is a pick up list of things that need improvement. In our case there were three issues. The AC was not working well and basically managed the room to 30 degrees Celsius, the boats internet was very limited, only working in the dining area, and that was food quality and taste was average. One of the driving forces besides the beauty of Croatia of our return was exceptional food quality, preparation and value in our first cruise. The chefs were amazing, tantalizing us with great appetizers, main courses and deserts. Although an effort was made it was not near the level of our first cruise. I imagine Sail Croatia will rectify these start up issues but want to present the facts as they were for us to future customers.

- Brad, 26/06/2026 10:00, Travelled with Family

This was one of my best vacations and have been all different size boats. It was very relaxing atmosphere and excellent way to see Croatia. Wake up have breakfast, anchor in a bay and have a swim. While having lunch the ship travels to the next port for you to enjoy. The nice thing is you get to enjoy dinner in port and are not rushed backed to the boat as it’s there for the night. Our guide Sasa kept us informed on a daily basis on what was happening for the day and things to do and places to eat. Great job. The bar staff Marko and Vlaho were great bartenders and hard workers always ready to get you whatever drink you required great job guys. Our house keeper Julia did a great job cleaning up after all of us on the boat. Now I get down to the food cooked by our chef Bojan and sou chef Zodojka which was outstanding. The crew lead by Captain Frane and crewed by Bojan and Zodoyka did a great job getting us to were we needed to go and docking the ship even in tight situations. Great work

No what we expected but the country is beautiful many disappointments on the cruise

- David, 22/06/2026 22:19, Travelled with Family

Sail Croatia does an amazing job. We loved everything about our trip and would definitely sail with them again. Sail Croatia is an amazing value, they make everything easy, all you have to do is relax and enjoy yourself. The boat was wonderful and the cabins were larger and more comfortable than I expected. The food was excellent and much more than advertised. Breakfast was varied every morning with a nice variety. Lunch was an excellent 3-course meal each day and everything was delicious. The team on board does an excellent job of making you feel relaxed and comfortable and you can tell they truly take pride in their work. Each swim stop was well thought out as far as location and each time offered a unique and beautiful location to enjoy. The boat offered plenty of space to relax and it never felt crowded or cramped. All of this and getting to spend time in a beautiful country make this something I would gladly do again. Thank you Sail Croatia!

- Chad Vanourny, 22/06/2026 15:36, Travelled with Family

Sanja and the Almissa crew were amazing, they made mine and my brothers week fun and stress free due to their hospitality and professionalism. I would definitely recommend this sail and hope they have Sanja and the Almissa crew so they can have similar memories and just as much fun as we had on our sail!

- Andre, 22/06/2026 10:36, Travelled with Family

We had the best time on our Sail Croatia Explorer cruise. A huge shout out to Sanja (our guide) and Cesar and Kafka for the laughs and Grappa to start the morning with 😊. The food was amazing and there were plenty of day excursion options on each stop. Honestly it was a great family vacation ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

- Chris Burch, 22/06/2026 06:50, Travelled with Family

My wife and I had an absolute blast on the 7-day Split-to-Dubrovnik Explorer cruise on the Contessa. This was our first cruise ever, and it wildly exceeded our expectations. Every stop was a treasure in it's own way, the recently renovated ship has a modern/elegant design, the cabins were spacious, food on on-board was great, crew was fantastic and friendly, and our tour guide Lola made sure we knew all the fun activities to do, and the best places to dine. Highly recommend., 5 star experience.

- Eric, 15/06/2026 14:27, Travelled with Family

We finally managed to bring some of our family with us to show them how beautiful Croatia is and how good holidaying this way is. The Captain and crew were exceptionally good this year especially our chef Kole

- Colin, 15/06/2026 12:27, Travelled with Family

Our trip w Sail Croatia was wonderful on all fronts. The MS Contessa was recently refurbished and felt like a brand new, luxury yacht. The crew was incredibly helpful, kind and always available as needed. And our trip guide, Anita, was the absolute best and always there to keep us having fun, providing exceptional excursion options, making sure we were always safe and providing up-to-date plans for each day, I would highly recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a truly amazing vacation.

- Patrick, 08/06/2026 14:04, Travelled with Family

Absolutely amazing. Highlight of our Euro adventures. The host and crew were amazing. Food was first class every day and night. Stunning adventures. Highly recommend. 5 stars

- Mick, 08/06/2026 07:08, Travelled with Family

We had a wonderful time with the friendly staff on the Tempera we where greeted on the dock by ceili our tour guide who was Fantastic she kept us well informed the whole trip and was very helpful with any questions we had we found our cabin very comfortable and clean A great experience Highly recommend 🍹😎👍

- Anonymous, 02/06/2026 07:29, Travelled with Family

It was good, but they have things to improve, like the air conditioning not working, the cancellation of multiple activities due to the weather, the captain's absence due to "illness" (though he seemed perfectly fine the other days), and having a bartender drunk almost 50% of the time. But the accommodations were very good, the food was very good, and the main day was excellent.

- Anonymous, 26/05/2026 20:39, Travelled with Family

What an awesome experience on board with the renovated Contessa. The crew was outstanding and great food as well. Would definitely use Sail Croatia again.

- PERCY, 25/05/2026 13:27, Travelled with Family

Our trip through the Croatia islands with Calum aboard Tempura was fun and educational. The trip was from Split to Dubrovnik visiting wonderful islands along the way. The crew was extremely hardworking and helpful. Our guide and leader for the week was Calum. If you are fortunate enough to have him as you cruise leader, know that you will have an amazing holiday. He was very knowledgeable about each stop as well as the history of each island/town we stopped in. He planned trips, dinners and events every day making the trip extra special for my wife and I!

- Carl, 20/05/2026 10:20, Travelled with Family

Great time. Crew was awsome and very helpful. Maybe the ship could use more swimming floats and serve more traditional Croation food for lunch.

- Alan, 18/05/2026 10:28, Travelled with Family

Our family had a wonderful time on the cruise getting to explore a beautiful country with wonderful people. The crew was excellent in every way. The boat was clean, comfortable, the food and drinks were plentiful, and Dino was a great guide the entire week! I definitely recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a wonderful week long cruise!

Geat staff and service.

- Paul , 22/09/2025 18:01, Travelled with Family

Our boat Salve Di Mare was not only the best boat in the fleet, it was staffed by the best crew, Captain Frane, Sailors Mario and Duje, Waiter Marko and Vlaho, Cheifs Arjan and Tina and last but definitely not least our Maid Monika, all 10/10 for all their duties. Now not to forget our absolute champion of a representative Vicko. The weather was a little Ordinary so they changed the route and included some extra activity activities to give a better experience, it was appreciated by all guests on the boat. Vikos knowledge about Croatia and the places we went, outstanding. The entire crew and Vicko went above and beyond. As an airline Captain in Australia, I can only hope my crew perform as Frans crew did, I know the logistics behind a smooth enjoyable experience for your guests and the teamwork required to achieve this, Frane and Vicko mastered it. Thanks to all. Sean Daly

From the start of this cruise on a fairly small ship the crew and Sail Croatia representative were most welcoming and friendly, nothing was to much trouble. Beautiful clear water with plenty of swim stops. Food offered to a good standard. People we met were friendly and most spoke good English.

- Gary, 15/09/2025 11:11, Travelled with Family

Sas'a and the whole crew aboard Mali Ante! A Great 7 day cruise to remember, perfect food, comforts and personalised assistance when needed, a trip to remember. We Highly recommend as a family.

- Daniel , 08/09/2025 21:10, Travelled with Family

The boat trip between Split and Dubrovnik Croatia is amazing with beautiful islands and an exceptional ship crew. The captain had to deal with bad weather and modified our stops to minimize the impact and maximize our itinerary with fun and exciting stops. The crew kept everyone safe, provided us exceptional meals, provided us excellent service and kept the ship clean.

- John , 08/09/2025 18:55, Travelled with Family

Very knowledgeable cruise manager/guide and great, hardworking staff

- Paul, 25/08/2025 14:06, Travelled with Family

We had a fabulous time. Everything about the boat: the cabins, the deck, the food, the staff. Ioana was our fabulous guide who kept us thoroughly entertained and informed! The morning swims and afternoon adventures were incredible. The only downside is that the holiday had to come to an end. We’re missing everyone we met but have fabulous memories that we will cherish always.

- Nick, 20/08/2025 19:30, Travelled with Family

The whole experience was fantastic! The crew, our group, the food , excursions were fabulous. I thoroughly recommend this 7 day sail from Split to Dubrovnik. Personally it would have been better to do Split to Dubrovnik instead especially if you need to get to other countries.

- Debbie, 11/08/2025 05:24, Travelled with Family

The small boat experience is special. You get to know people from around the world. The small crew gets to know people and they take care of things a simple as I don't like mushrooms (so the day they had mushroom soup, I got pumpkin soup). The tour director, Dino, was very knowledgeable and that helped us get the most out of each port.

- Corey, 11/08/2025 00:38, Travelled with Family

Wonderful week on the Princeza Diana! Thank you Ana and the crew! The swim stops were so refreshing and cool, the boat was perfectly comfortable and the cities were absolutely beautiful! Perfect way to see the Dalmatian Coast. Next time, the bike tour!

- Patrick, 30/07/2025 23:17, Travelled with Family

Fantastic time had by all. Dino was great and his advice was spot on every time.

- Troy, 07/07/2025 12:43, Travelled with Family

My family and I were on an Explorer cruise recently with Dino aboard the Princeza Diana and it was an amazing time. The crew of the ship was great, very friendly, and knowledgeable. Dino, by far, exceeded our expectations of what any tour guide could offer. He was kind, friendly, interactive, and involved in the trip and helped make so many arrangements that we wouldn't have been able to make otherwise. We had someone who needed to visit a doctor while we were abroad and Dino assisted with scheduling a time and making sure they got to the location. The locations we visited were beautiful and the food was all amazing, both on and off the ship, and the recommendations Dino gave were great. I only wish we could have visited more. One of the great thing about a cruise on a ship this size is how close you get to and connect with the other people on board who also help to make the trip that much more special.

Fun! We had a fabulous crew and wonderful group of guests. Everyone really bonded and had lots of great conversations and fun times together!

- Gregory, 30/06/2025 13:20, Travelled with Family

The crew is who made the trip truly memorable. Attentive, good senses of humor and caring. Lola our cruise director was a good communicator and her suggestions for activities and places of interest added helped us get a better understanding of Croatia and the islands we visited. Can’t say enough how great Lola’s restaurant recommendations were. Not one bad meal. Swim stops were welcome respite from the days heat.

- Jim, 23/06/2025 04:53, Travelled with Family

I really enjoyed our crew and our tour guide, Anita. They were wonderfully attentive to our needs and refreshing to be around. I will highly recommend this ship and crew to our friends.

- Randy, 10/06/2025 18:44, Travelled with Family

Not only was the location of the cruise stunning but the experience was made so much better by the crew of Salve de Mare and our guide Vicko. Every day was laid out for us in advance with advice on the best excursions and places to visit. The crew of the ship was always attentive and the food was delicious. Vicko was personable, knowledgeable and truly cared about our experience. Overall, the entire trip from start to finish was annazing and made for one of if not the best trips of my life.

- Luke, 05/06/2025 14:57, Travelled with Family

The boat was great and the food was wonderful. We enjoyed the swim stops and all the ports Definitely recommend.

- Eric, 27/05/2025 23:01, Travelled with Family

Great experience meeting a number of people from around the world. Crew did a fantastic job ensuring we were kept safe and answered all of our needs. Well done. Klara our cruise director did an outstanding job keeping us informed and did everything she could to ensure we were taken care of regardless of the time. Highly recommended

- James, 12/05/2025 17:08, Travelled with Family

Anita, our Tour manager was fantastic! Always thinking on all the passengers and making sure we had a great time. The cabins were comfortable, spacious. The food was very good with varieties. I will definitely repeat soon with Sail Croatia.

- Dulce, 27/10/2024 04:07, Travelled with Family

Everything just came together beautifully. Fantastic weather, a diverse interesting group of friendly really nice passengers, a warm friendly crew and fantastic host Anita. On board food was great. The timing of events, swim stops and activities each day was well, thought out and just worked. Anita did a really good job of keeping everyone updated throughout the day both personally and via a group chat including extra things to do, places to eat etc. To top it off, the boat, Salve de Mare, was fantastic, with lots of space, very clean and comfortable with everything operating as it should. Would definitely travel with Sail Croatia again!

- Brian, 22/10/2024 07:36, Travelled with Family

Swim stops were cancelled due to weather without consulting passengers. Some activities were cancelled either because of equipment malfunction. A better hostess would be good.

- Malcolm , 07/10/2024 06:54, Travelled with Family

The staff were excellent, with special mention of Klara and Branco who made the cruise extra special. Klara's knowledge of the islands and history were shared to us with passion and humor and was received extremely well by the guests. The arranging of excursions was flawless and we always knew the times and booking details well in advance. Branco made sure that we were served plenty of food on board and his bar manner was second to none. The islands themselves shared their different characters, all of which were enjoyed by all. We would definitely do this again as we thoroughly enjoyed our first ever cruise provided by Sail Croatia.
