The whole crew aboard the Almissa was amazing! The food was fantastic and everyone made us made us feel right at home. Our tour guide Josip was so good, I wish everyone could experience what we did on our trip. 10/10 would recommend this to anyone going to Croatia.

Excellent cruise from Split to Dubrovnik. The daily swim stops were fabulous and very relaxing. The crew knew what they were doing and were very professional. Our tour guide was the best! Very attentive and took care of everyone.

The ship and crew were excellent. Hana was very responsive to any issues or questions we had. She also was very informative about all the ports we visited. hana arranged all of our off ship excursion's .The captain always picked the perfect spot each day for our swim days. I would recommend this trip to anyone that is looking for a once in a lifetime trip.

We sailed on the Almissa for my sister in laws 60th birthday. We had the most amazing trip! Captain Joseph was the most amazing captain! He was so friendly and genuinely loved sailing his ship. He found the most outstanding swim spots. He truly enjoyed talking to all his passengers. Our bartenders Cezar and Kufca were so fun and so personable!! They knew all our names by the end of the first day! The food was really very good. We had breakfast and lunch everyday on the boat! The sailors were outstanding as well! The star of the show was Hana! We all absolutely fell in love with our ships director(not sure the actual term). But Hana was soooo lovely! We were informed every day with the schedule of events. She sent us restaurant recommendations and made us reservations if we needed. Everyday she gave us a presentation of what we would see on our next stop. She planned a birthday dinner including cake. But most of all she took the time to get to know every one of us! We loved her!

We loved our Sail Croatia holiday aboard Salve di Mar slowly island hopping between Dubrovnik and Split. Highlights weee the enthusiastic and capable Sail Croatia host and vessel crew, the stunning islands with their historic villages and diverse cuisine, our magnificent vessel and socialising with our friends and guests. It was our first cruise but with such a small group, cruise doesn’t feel the right word. Whatever you call it… the experience s wonderful. Do go.

About 18 months ago, I saw Sail Croatia on Instagram and quickly showed it to my wife. With her blessing, I reached out and booked our trip. We quickly told friends about it and were a total of six when we boarded the Almissa. Simply stated, the trip was amazing. Our captain, our crew, and our bartenders (Cezar and Kafka) were the best. Always there for anything we needed, and always with a smile. Everything you see on the cruise is beautiful but the service on the Almissa took it over the top. Each day you leave a location, eat wonderful food on the boat, have a swim stop, and end up in a new location. The food was excellent. I am a picky eater and loved everything. The swim stops are so beautiful that we all agreed that pictures were not doing them justice. The size of the ship allows for smaller ports and takes you to places you likely would not see otherwise. I cannot recommend this cruise enough. It was a highlight of not just this trip, but all the trips we have taken.

We had an amazing trip! The crew and coordinator (Boat Manager Christiana, coordinator Nikos, sailors Tino and Charlie, waiters Neno and Martin, and maid Joy) all did an amazing job. They all went the extra mile to make sure we were accommodated. The ship had just been renovated, and it was definitely and it was very nice. Rooms and bathrooms were very spacious. Other common areas of the ship (upper sun deck, saloon, etc.) were very nice. Would highly recommend Sail Croatia and the Contessa ship.

I was pleasantly surprised with how smoothly everything went. Everything was organized and I felt like I didn't need to worry about anything. I was also surprised how good the lunches were. I am a tad picky, but the food was just great. I'll also note that our room was bigger and more comfortable than expected. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a relaxing trip to a beautiful location.

Traveled with a group of 8, and had the absolute best time! Sanja was great, working with us everyday on what to expect that day and next, and the crew was fabulous! Ivo and Mio were great bartenders, the crew was awesome, and the ship was always clean and perfect for our group. The other passengers were also super friendly and we all got along perfectly! A wonderful way to explore the Croatian islands, and I highly recommend it!!

6 of us sailed on the Almissa the first week of July. Right from the start we were greeted with friendly staff members who met all of our needs and answered all of our questions. Hana was our guide/host for the week and she was amazing. She always checked in on passengers daily asking them what they had done the day before and what the plans were. She gave us a play by play of what to expect each day and answered questions and gave suggestions in a timely manner. She was outstanding. The boat was extremely clean and was big enough for all thirty plus passengers to find space if needed. The staff was friendly and assisted whenever needed. The food was also the best food I have had on the trip - even better than the restaurants. The pace of the trip was great. The only reason I did not give five stars, is that I wish drinks were included in the price or that a drink package could be bought. I would definitely suggest bringing snacks on board as they were not provided throughout.

Our experience with Sail Croatia on the Princess Diana was amazing. While the beauty of Croatia makes the trip awesome, the staff on the boat made it memorable. Mario was the spirit of the ship and Tea and Denny served every meal and drink with never ending enthusiasm. I would recommend you find a group of friends and have an unforgettable vacation.

We traveled with a large group of friends on the Princeza Diana and had a great time. Our tour rep. Mario and the rest of the crew did a great job. The food and daily swim stops were remarkable, Mario was very knowledgeable of the history of each of the locations we stopped at. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and specifically the Princeza Diana boat.

- Corey, 30/06/2026 19:23, Travelled with Friend/s

We had a group of 15 couples doing the Split return to Split sailing on Princess Diana. We had the absolute best trip ever!! Mario and the boat staff were incredible. From food to the boat accommodations everything was incredible.

This was perhaps one of the very best holidays we have ever experienced. The Captain and crew were of the highest standard and became friends in our voyage together. Our fellow passengers also made this a very memorable trip. Would highly recommend this to anyone. Hope to come back some day!

The 7 day cruise spent on Salve di Mare was nothing but first class. We had great service, relaxed atmosphere and immersive destination access. Our cruise director Matilda provided excellent info about each destination & organised side tours at each destination. Marko and Vlaho ran a very professional bar and dining service from early in the morning till late at night. These two were very warm and welcoming and shared there knowledge and promoted fun and laughter amongst the guests. The maid Julija did a wonderful job keeping rooms clean as well as the ship. The kitchen staff Bojan & Fani prepared delicious meals. The crew led by Capt Frane with sailors Fadil and Richard were very professional and skilled especially when mooring the ship in tricky weather and space. The beauty of this ship was its ability to reach smaller locations that provided a more local vibe that large cruise ships cannot reach. The whole 7 days was very relaxed and felt uncrowded on board. Great experience

Sasa and all the crew were amazing. From the minute we got on the boat to the day we got off they all went out of their way to ensure we were very comfortable, relaxed, well informed and having a great time. I loved the swim stops and exploring the towns in the cooler evenings. Food was also great (thank you chef) and Marco and the lads were amazing. I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone!!

Our Salve di Mare Explorer Cruise was truly unforgettable. From the moment we boarded, the crew made the experience feel personal, luxurious, and effortlessly fun. Our onboard representative, Matilda, was fabulous; witty, personable, organized, and always sharing history and local tidbits of each port. Marko & Vlaho mastered the balance of polished bartenders and friends, with perfect prosecco pours flowing late into the evening, then back up early each morning serving breakfast without missing a beat. Chef Bojan & sous chef Fani prepared incredible meals daily - I’m still thinking about the stuffed tomato starter. Captain Frane’s Dinner was a highlight, especially once the impromptu conga line pulled in sailors Fadil & Richard! The Salve di Mare itself is stunning; sleek, modern, impeccably clean thanks to Julija, and clearly built with pride and craftsmanship. Every port was beautiful, but some of my favorite moments were simply onboard laughing and lounging with everyone aboard.

This was by far the best vacation I have ever taken. We were on the MS Almissa with our amazing crew (Marin, Caesar, and Kafka) for 7 days and they could not have made the experience any better. By the end of the trip we had made so many new friends, including the crew. The destinations were amazing and Marin, our tour manager, gave us so many great recommendations in each stop. We spend most nights out on the town, but the post-dinner hang outs on the boat with new friends are some of the most memorable of the whole trip. Happy to be leaving the trip with new friends (including our amazing crew).

Sailing through Croatia aboard the Salve di Mare was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. The vessel itself was spotless and well-maintained, with a crew that took great pride in their work. Every detail—from the gleaming decks to the thoughtfully prepared meals—reflected a high standard of care. The food onboard was a true highlight, each dish freshly prepared and bursting with flavor, perfectly complementing the beautiful views of the Adriatic. The itinerary offered plenty of chances to explore Croatia’s stunning coastline, with stops at charming seaside towns, historic ports, and hidden coves. Swim stops were always a favorite—crystal-clear water, warm sun, and that feeling of pure relaxation only the sea can offer. Our guide, Dino, truly made the trip special. His deep knowledge of Croatia’s history and culture brought each destination to life, and he was always ready with excellent suggestions for local sights, food, and activities. Great trip and would recommend !

Croatia proved a wonderful place to visit but it was the on board experiences that made this holiday great. Firstly Dino was a great cruise organiser and entertainment provider. He was always to hand with advice and assistance. He was engaging and shared many stories with great humour. Dino truly drove our experience and I can’t recommend him highly enough. The crew were very good as well, Cesar and Christina’s hospitality and good humour made our dining and beverage experience easy and fun. The food was excellent on the whole. It was an very good holiday, lots of fun and lots of interesting experiences with many thanks.

Dino was a great help advising and setting up activities at each stop. The food was great! The boat is a bit dated, but I feel it was a fantastic value for the price.

The crew and staff on our Almissa cruise last week were terrific, providing a great atmosphere and attending to everything that we asked for. A special mention should be made of Hana, our cruise manager. Hana provided exceptional service to ensure we had a great time, no matter what was requested or at what time. Her knowledge of the region, recommendations on places to visit and dinning options were extremely helpful. Thank you for everything you all did to ensure we had such a great holiday. Regards Paul

Special mention to the crew and Captain; Maksa, Millan and the chef's for an awesome week on board.

On our recently completed trip from Dabrovnic to Split for 7 days, Although the "Tempera" ship requires some strong maintenance repairs and surface repairs, the experience beyond that was incredible for a first time cruise guest on that size and style of a ship. Our Cruise Manager Sasha was the most friendly, knowledgeable management team member that leads the way in customer relations and makes all guests feel like a family member. The Captain and crew provide a constant team effort of providing services of any nature while at sea or when at dock daily. We were fortunate to have a dining room / bar drink service leader in "Max", his efforts exemplify professionalism customer service. The most valuable aspect of this specific cruise trip was the personal relationships built in a very short order of time (from day 1) of the other guests. This size of a ship and the areas of common use created an experience like no other, for the friendships that were created, we thank you.
