Our unforgettable holiday on the Salve Di Mare has come to an end, we’ve met some wonderful people and discovered beautiful, captivating places, lots of swim stops with an opportunity to leap into the sea. We’ve been spoilt with exceptional service fantastic food and not having to plan the next days adventure.

My week aboard the Almissa was exciting, active and very memorable. I was a solo traveller but made friends very quickly with my fellow passengers and with the crew. All had stories to tell and I was happy to listen. I booked on the yoga cruise as I needed to sale on those dates. I did do yoga and aim to continue when my holidays are over. Prior to my holiday I hadn’t done yoga before. Dora the Yoga instructor and activities Manager led the class well. I fell asleep so relaxed after the first session. I loved swimming and chilling at the swim spots, enjoyed challenging myself by jumping off the 6metre high roof deck with the other dare devils and it was great when the captain and crew joined in for a swim or a jump over the side or a paddleboard. During one conversation with the captain, on the night of the ‘Captains Dinner’ we talked about the ongoing maintenance that is done during the off season to keep the Almissa looking so good. She looked spotless start to finish.

Yoga Cruise 2026 Dora, the cruise manager, the crew and the mix of travellers made this the perfect week away. If I could rate 6 stars I would it’s simply that good. Prefect mix of itinerary, ports, food, fun, activities, morning yoga and fellow travellers all out for a good time. The days filled with fun on the ship, docking and evenings are wide open to explore, eat and enjoy the magical Croatian islands. This is the definition of the best one week vacation - I recommend this in an instant - book and you will never look back.

- Isaac, 14/09/2026 13:36, Travelled in a Couple

We had a wonderful time. The ship was clean at all times. After our swim the staff was mopping the floors. Our room was cleaned every day. This attention to detail was apparent and appreciated. Everyone was friendly and kind. The food was always delicious. Hanna our cruise director was so helpful and her informative presentations at lunch helped us with what to do on each island and learn a little history of the people. You couldn’t help but notice how hard she worked caring for 35 guests around the clock. We loved her. We made so many friends while we were on board, it was an unexpected surprise. I would recommend this cruise to anyone thinking about visiting Croatia. Our thanks to all your wonderful crew that made this trip so memorable.

What an incredible week! We spent 7 days aboard the Salve Di Mare with just 33 passengers, and it was easily the highlight of our two weeks in Croatia. At 162 feet, the boat had all the creature comforts we could ask for, but was still small enough to visit the charming little ports and historic towns and islands along the Dalmatian coast. Every day seemed to have the perfect balance of exploring, amazing food, fascinating history and time to simply relax. I especially miss our daily swim stops in beautiful, secluded coves with crystal-clear water. What really made the week unforgettable was the crew. Vicko, our fun organizer, was fantastic and by the end of the week felt more like family. The entire crew was warm, friendly and made us feel completely at home. We made wonderful memories and made wonderful new friends. I would go back tomorrow if I could!

- Adam, 09/09/2026 19:39, Travelled in a Couple

A very enjoyable cruise. Crew was very friendly and helpful at all times. Food was excellant.

Absolutely everything about this trip was amazing. Vicko and the entire crew made us feel like home, they cared about everyone and every single detail. We travel continuously and to different destinations, this trip is the only one we will repeat! It is that incredible. Thank you again to the crew of Salve di mare and Vicko ! Friends for ever

- Guillermo, 08/09/2026 12:00, Travelled with Family

Crew was amazing from Mario to bartender to cook and rest of the staff. My only complaint the ship was old and needa alot of attention

- Anonymous, 07/09/2026 15:34, Travelled with Family

We had the pleasure of sailing with best crew who were incredibly professional, kind, knowledgeable, outgoing and fun. Marin led the charge and his positive attitude and thorough commutation set the tone for the best experience. Kristijana (boat manager) was behind the scenes allowing for the operation to run seamlessly. Neno and Jovana (bartenders) were so kind and engaging, and became fast friends with all of the guests. Marko and Bane (chefs) prepared delicious meals each day. Joy (housekeeper) made our rooms spotless daily, and Charlie, Tino (sailors) and Slavko (captain) made sure the boat and our voyage was safe and smooth. Each of these individuals work tirelessly to make everyone’s experience extraordinary. The service provided exceeded our expectations. Croatia is such a unique and stunning country. Sail Croatia allowed us to see so many incredible areas and learn about the history, culture and beauty the country has to offer. I highly recommend Sail Croatia!

- Taylor, 05/09/2026 07:12, Travelled in a Couple

Had an amazing time on Sail Croatia. From the moment we boarded until we departed. Daily swim stops were fantastic, All the crew were extremely accommodating and the Contessa facilities were amazing

- Jason, 05/09/2026 06:20, Travelled in a Couple

We had an excellent time aboard the Contessa on our 7 day trip from Split to Dubrovnik. We were impressed by the spaciousness of the cabins, the high level of finishes of the boat, the excellent meals, the cordial staff, and to make things better, all the other passengers were delightful as well. Kudos to the entire team: Marin (the tour manager), jovana and neno (bartenders), bane and marko (chefs), charlie and tino (sailors), joy (housekeeping), kristijana (boat manager) and above all, captain slavko! highly recommend and hope to sail with sail croatia in the future!

Everything was great!

- Joseph, 31/08/2026 14:16, Travelled with Family

From start to finish our family vacation exceeded our expectations. From the logistics, the amazing ship and even more amazing crew, we are grateful for our family time together. Thank you Sail Croatia for everything you did for all of us. (and our co-passengers we not too shabby either - great memories)

- Keith, 28/08/2026 22:42, Travelled with Family

Our Explorer Cruise aboard The Contessa from Split to Dubrovnik was a five star experience from start to finish. Our onboard representative Marin was front and centre on the pier welcoming everyone as suitcases were being loaded and from that point forward he did an exceptional job managing the itinerary, and sharing his knowledge and passion for Croatia throughout the trip. We also received great service onboard with the crew: Ivana, Neno, Charlie, ,and Joy. They were all super friendly and hard-working and it was a pleasure getting to know them over the course of the trip. The food on the cruise was over the top and chefs Bane and Marko were a fantastic culinary team. A special shout out to.the boat manager Kristijana for going above and beyond to have my suitcase, delivered to the ship on one of the islands because the airline had left it behind on a connecting flight. Thank you. Marin and team for making this and outstanding holiday experience that we highly recommend!

- Pete, 28/08/2026 08:41, Travelled in a Couple

Perfect week onboard the Salve di Mare. The ship is beautiful, mix of traditional and modern. Croatia has to be the most beautiful place in Europe with every beach, cove and town being as stunning as the next. But it’s the crew, guide and fellow travellers that made it really special. Surpassed all expectations, which were high anyway. Worth 10 stars! Highly recommended

- Phil, 24/08/2026 08:48, Travelled in a Couple

We had an excellent time with Sail Croatia and the Salve Di Mare. The crew and our host were so fun and accommodating. It was the perfect way to explore the Dalmatian Coast.

- Dillon, 24/08/2026 02:12, Travelled in a Couple

Swimming in the clear, warm Adriatic sea every day was spectacular. My favorite part. The food on the boat was 10 out of 10. Did not expect every meal to be literally amazing. And I have high food standards. I took a picture of every 3 course lunch. Amazing!! This is a must do vacation at least once in a lifetime…. Oh and the crew would go out if their way every time you needed anything… unreal experience.

- John, 24/08/2026 01:19, Travelled in a Couple

We thought everything was pretty much spot on. The Ship and staff were excellent. Our only negative was the timing of breakfast and lunch, along with the swim stops. We understand you have to adapt the schedule each day to cooincide with when you have to be at the next Port. But for the most part in chatting with our shipmates, we felt like....hurry and get up for breakfast, hurry and eat, go for a swim....but we just ate....hurry for lunch....then we typically need time to digest. We have 3 or 4 hours between breakfast and lunch......then 6 to 8 hours between lunch and dinner. It just felt like the meals on board could be stretched out longer and not rushed. The Bar, when ordering a drink, please serve the alcohol that is listed on the menu. Those are our only negatives, otherwise we totally loved the small ship cruising experience. Special thank yous to Yolana in the Salon, and Joy the housekeeper. We found out late that she is a massage therapist..too bad that service was N/A

- Randal and Brenda, 21/08/2026 08:06, Travelled with Family

Could not have been any better. The crew was excellent. The ship great. The stops beautiful. Highly recommended

- Gregg, 21/08/2026 01:20, Travelled in a Couple

We we're on the Queen Jelena with about 30 individuals including our family of four. Our family included a 17 year old, college student, and my wife and I. Our kids met other guests within the same age range and we all had a great time. Our tour manager Vicko was great and made the trip memorable. He helped us understand logistics, provided great recommendations, and made the trip engaging and fun overall. I would do it again, and would request Vicko to be our guide.

- Daniel, 18/08/2026 20:42, Travelled with Family

We had an amazing time aboard the Sail Croatia Esperanza. Island hopping was outstanding and we'd do it again in a heartbeat. Would absolutely recommend Sail Croatia to friends. Klara was an excellent and fun host and all of the crew did a very nice job during our cruise.

- George Davis, 18/08/2026 17:12, Travelled with Family

We had a wonderful time on Sail Croatia, we had a great host in Klara. She was well supported by the great crew on Esperanza. Amazing part of the world that is best explored on Sail Croatia. The food was excellent, beautiful blue waters for swim stops and we had a great group to enjoy it with, we highly recommend Sail Croatia

- Anonymous, 18/08/2026 15:29, Travelled with Family

This was my wife and I's first cruise, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. We joined another couple who chose the trip, and we're so glad they did. The Explorer level was perfect for active people in their 40s/50s who enjoy having fun both on and off the boat. The crew was AMAZBALLZ: accommodating, fun, knowledgeable, and always making sure we had everything we needed. Hana, our tour director, went above and beyond to make the trip special. Kafka and Cesar were outstanding, always taking great care of us and adding to the experience. We even got to meet the owner of the Almissa, Pave, who was super friendly and fun to spend time with. The captain and crew kept everything running smoothly all week, which was especially appreciated during the heat. What an incredible way to experience Croatia and enjoy our first cruise. The memories will last a lifetime. Highly recommend!

- Jason H, 17/08/2026 15:46, Travelled in a Couple

I had a wonderful experience exploring the Croatian islands from Dubrovnik to Split aboard the Contessa. The yacht was luxurious, the group was super fun and the overall journey was just fantastic. Comfort, cleanliness, tasty food, great itinerary and unforgettable moments. I'll be back!

- Wilco, 17/08/2026 13:20, Travelled Solo

- Marc, 17/08/2026 07:03, Travelled in a Couple

When I booked the trip with sail Croatia I wasn’t really sure what to expect. It definitely exceeded my expectations. Every day we stopped in the morning for a swim and then dock for the evening. All the towns were beautiful and we enjoyed every excursion we did. The staff on the boat were exceptionally nice. I would recommend this trip to anyone. Thank you sail Croatia.

- Jeff wolfe, 11/08/2026 20:20, Travelled in a Couple

A wonderful way to finish our time in Europe. On the Almissa from Split to Dubrovnik the Captain & Crew ensured our time on and off the ship (& in the water) was fantastic.

- Anonymous, 11/08/2026 08:56, Travelled in a Couple

We travelled from Split to Dubrovnik on an Explorer cruise on the Esperanz in early August. The cruise was amazing for a number of reasons. The boat was very comfortable with a nice sized cabin, a great roof top area to sunbake and a great dinning room. The staff were fantastic and very accommodating and the cruise director was brilliant. The itinerary was great with the daily swim stops in crystal clear water and then then docking in port for an evening experience. The islands were amazing with each town that we visited had something different to offer. Every island had great restaurants and bars with friendly staff. We also had a great group on the boat. There were around 20 guests on our trip and everyone got on really well. The cruise director made sure there were plenty of networking opportunities which made the trip more enjoyable. We made new friends, shared lots of experiences and we were sad to finish the trip. Overall, and amazing trip and highly recommended.

- Scott, 11/08/2026 08:15, Travelled in a Couple

Myself and my wife are fortunate to have had many great weeks traveling in the past but this week with Sail Croatia was one of the best and one we will not forget. Our host Barbara was so informative and was there for us whenever we needed.. We could not ask more from her and the crew - They insured we had a great week and one that we won’t forget. We will be back and recommend highly.

- Shaun, 10/08/2026 15:12, Travelled with Family

My wife and I had the most amazing trip through Sail Croatia. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home and had everything we needed. The people we met and friends we made will be with us always. Hana and the whole crew worked so hard, with Hana explaining everything in super detail to make sure ever excursion was perfect for us. There was nothing left out and we felt as if we were treated like family. We would recommend this cruise to anyone looking for a once in a lifetime experience.

- William, 10/08/2026 07:05, Travelled with Family

Fantastic trip on the Dubrovnik to Split Route 5 stars all the way Made all the better by the fantastic crew and the camaraderie that quickly developed between the guests who soon became friends Highly recommended

- Tim, 07/08/2026 17:01, Travelled in a Couple

Our trip on the Salve Di Mare was unbelievable. Everyone on the crew made us feel like family from the captain, to the sailors, to our favorite bartenders Marco and Vlaho, the chefs Bojan and Elena, the maid Julija and our amazing cruise director Barbara. Everything was first class and 5 stars. Dining was gourmet 5 star meals. Accommodations were spacious, clean and quiet. There was a good mix of scenic sailing when we could relax in the sun, daily swim stops, great meals and amazing destinations. There were daily excursions offered but we opted to simply take the time in port to explores the quaint ancient cities and walk the cobbled streets. The local food for dinners was great. The entire week was well plan and I would without hesitation recommend everyone to choose Sail Croatia. I would definitely choose the Salve Di Mare as it was much more luxurious than other yachts but well worth the higher price. Your only regret will come the last day when you must say goodbye

- Rob, 06/08/2026 17:39, Travelled in a Couple

Salve di Mare was a beautiful boat. Comfortable rooms. Amazing sundeck. Crew were great. Lovely food. Accommodated dietary restrictions well. Would recommended

- James, 29/07/2026 08:09, Travelled in a Couple

We recently enjoyed a trip on Salve di Mare and was one of the best cruise experiences I've ever had. The staff were all great. The chefs on the boat were top notch. Our coordinator Barbara was the best and made planning excursions/dinners effortless. Every day was carefully planned and made the trip seamless and stress free. Would definitely book again and plan on it.

- Joe, 28/07/2026 18:05, Travelled in a Couple

We enjoyed our 7 day cruise. Niko was very informative of the history of our stops and things to do and places to eat. We couldn’t fault any of the crew, they were all very friendly and helpful.

The reviews don't lie. It's a five-star experience in a spectacular country with beautiful people. My wife and I went to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary and were treated to a first-class trip in every way. Our cruise director was outstanding: knowledgeable, funny, well connected and became a good friend. Our fellow travelers were wonderful; plenty of opportunities to connect and also do our own thing. The boat was beautiful and the food was fantastic. Croatia is a dream of a country; the islands are so lovely, each a little different from the last. The weather was perfect. We couldn't recommend more highly.

- James, 21/07/2026 17:33, Travelled in a Couple

Moment we boarded the ship the service was top level. Our tour manager Barbra was amazing giving us our daily activities and giving us a good overview of each stop. The chefs that provided us our 2 meals each day were so delicious. The way the ship is set up is a great way to meet and get to know all the guests on the boat. Got to make a lot of new friends from the Uk,USA and Australia. We recommend this trip to anyone that would like to have a relaxing trip, eat great food, visit hidden gems of Croatia and meet amazing people from all over. Pictures do not do it justice, you have to visit yourself to see the true beauty of the country of Croatia

- Orrie, 21/07/2026 08:23, Travelled in a Couple

It was even better than I expected! I met so many people and discovered new places all while staying in luxury. Our tour manager Dino was amazing, nothing was ever a problem for him to sort out. The same goes for the rest of the staff too. I will definitely do it again in the future!

- Jonathan, 21/07/2026 07:50, Travelled Solo

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.

- KElly, 20/07/2026 13:12, Travelled with Family

We had a really good time on board the Salve di Mare, Split to Dubrovnik. The food was very tasty, every staff member was friendly and professional, and the ship was spotless and well appointed. The swim stops were mostly incredible (the last one near Dubrovnik was less special and secluded than the others). We didn't get to do the Blue Cave tour as scheduled; still not sure why not. My only real criticism is that the ship didn't have karaoke!! 😜

- Michael, 20/07/2026 08:59, Travelled in a Couple

An unforgettable experience. The boat was immaculate, and the cabins, complete with private ensuites, were comfortable and well maintained. The staff were amazing, and the delicious three-course meals served every day were definitely a highlight. The food was consistently excellent, and the crew went above and beyond to make everyone feel welcome. One of the best parts of the trip was the wonderful group of fellow guests, along with the outstanding crew. Our cruise guide, Dino, was exceptional. He was friendly, approachable, and genuinely cared about making sure every guest had the best possible experience. He took the time to understand what my partner and I enjoyed and recommended excursions that suited us perfectly. Beyond the cruise itself, Dino shared fantastic recommendations for local restaurants, bars, and hidden gems in every town we visited, helping us experience Croatia like a local. He is a real asset to Sail Croatia, his passion and pride for his country shone through

- Matthew, 15/07/2026 07:41, Travelled in a Couple

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!!

- Michael, 15/07/2026 01:28, Travelled with Family

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!

- Anonymous, 14/07/2026 18:08, Travelled with Family

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.

Sailing on the Ezperanza with Sail Croatia was honestly one of those trips that just felt easy in the best way. From the start, it didn’t feel like a typical tour—it felt more like being part of a group of friends all exploring together. Every day had its own rhythm, whether we were cruising through ridiculously clear water, stopping to swim in quiet little coves, or wandering through coastal towns that somehow all felt unique. And the views never got old—just endless blue water, sun, and those unreal sunsets that made you stop and take it in. What really made it stand out, though, was the vibe on the boat. The crew set the tone, and everyone just clicked. It was a mix of relaxing during the day and fun nights hanging out, laughing, and enjoying the moment. The Ezperanza ended up feeling like our home for the week, and by the end, it didn’t even feel like a trip anymore—it felt like something we didn’t want to leave.

Everything was perfect with Sail Croatia, especially in Salve Di Mare, the cruises that we haved sail. The captain was a great guy, also all crew member. Josip, our tour guide, was also always very helpful and kind. Excellent food and drinks. Beautiful excursions. It was an even better experience than we could have expected.

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.

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

Excellent. I would do this again. Lola was fabulous. Very relaxing. Swim stops were perfect. I would love to buy a Sail Croatia collar shirt white. XL. Please advise how I do this. Hoping you can make an exception. Thank you. Loren

Overall I have a great time both on and off the boat. The crew was friendly and professional. The experience was memorable. If the age grouping could be fine tuned a little I would def consider another trip with sail Croatia. I was a little out of place with a group who were older than I was. My age or slightly younger would have been preferable.

I was apprehensive about travelling solo but needn't have been concerned. From start to finish this holiday exceeded my expectations. From the fantastic ship itself to the onboard crew, all operated like clockwork but with a very relaxed and flexible vibe all week. Sasa, our tour manager, had fantastic knowledge of each island we visited and kept us updated with the plans on each day via WhatsApp. The islands visited were amazing & the sailing and swim stops during the day were just so relaxing. The food onboard made by our chefs, Bojan and Zodojka was outstanding. Our two waiters Marco and Vlaho were also amazing and funny and went above and beyond. My cabin was super cool & very quiet each night (lower deck) and was thoroughly cleaned by Julia each day. I haven't slept so well in years! If you want to join others for chats and fun then you can, if you want to be on your own & relax, then you can - no pressure, just do what you want. I did a bit of both.

- Vic, 27/06/2026 09:55, Travelled Solo

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

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!

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 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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.

Cabin:: + adequate space. -- cigarette smoke frequently entered our cabin (15) via the a/c system. As nonsmokers w tobacco allergies, It was very problematic as it started early in the morning and last into the late evening affecting our sleep. Ship: + nice facilities and layout. — the not hot, hot tub was not filled until 1/2 way thru the cruise. And then not really utilized. Recommend repurposing that space for 6 more lounges so most passengers can have a lounge. Food: + passionate chef and assistant. Hot food available w breakfast and lunches. Really good quality. Service was great (Mario). Bar: + staff friendly and helpful. — unfortunately wines by the glass were restricted to one brand and were of poor quality and overpriced. You pay € for all beverages, tea, coffee, sodas, juices and again more than what u pay in ports. Coffee,tea,and juices only provided at breakfast. For lunch, only water served. Easy to have added inexpensive iced tea. Active:: + pleasant staff - disorganiz

- Joseph, 15/06/2026 09:22, Travelled in a Couple

The Mali Ante was the perfect ship to be on. The cruise food was great Croatia style meals and the drink prices were reasonable. The Captain’s dinner was perfect, as were the drinks and dancing afterwards. Our cruise director, Elena, was very helpful and knowledgeable. We cruised in early June, which I think is the perfect time to go. The water is just warm enough to swim, but the cities are not as crowded as they will be later in the summer. Recommend bringing swim shoes, an inflatable “noodle”, and maybe a 1mm neoprene swim top if you get easily cold when swimming. Also, we liked our lower cabin. Seemed to be a little roomier and quieter.

Brilliant , Lauren was fantastic. The crew were awesome! We had a good blend of people on the boat, from all over the world. Food was good and the places where we went were absolutely beautiful. The only complaint I have was the bed and sheets were a little short for me I am 6’2” I didn’t like the fact we had to “pay in cash” for the bar tab and local taxes at the end of the trip.

- Anonymous, 15/06/2026 06:59, Travelled Solo

I was super impressed with Sail Croatia, From the skipper, all the crew, our awesome English guide, Lauren, the facilities and all the stunning islands. Lauren gave us story time every day about the island we were visiting including its history and activity options. She was always available for information and recommendations. She really made the tour exceptional. The food that came out of such a tiny ships galley was also really impressive and the guys serving us ( Caesar and Kofta) were also awesome. I really can't fault the cruises. I went as a solo traveller and the friendship you make in the boat were a big part of the success of those cruise. I was in a below deck room which was also fantastic considering the space constraints on a small cruise, it was perfect.

- Jarrod, 14/06/2026 12:38, Travelled Solo

Amazing trip lead by a very fun and knowledgeable tour guide Lauren. The bar staff Kafka and Caesar were fun and easily approachable who added to the enjoyment of this trip. For those in the low to mid 30s debating whether to do the explorer or navigator, definitely give explorer a go as you will find like minded individuals who are willing to have fun and make the trip one to remember

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.

My wife and I had an amazing time on board Salve Di Mare, we did the explorer cruise, which was just perfect for us, offering grear activities but was also very relaxing. Our ship was beautiful, spacious rooms, great areas for soaking up the sun and just beautiful all round. Matilda, our rep was amazing. She went above and beyond for each guest, was super friendly, gave great insights into each location we went to, helped ensure each activity and program ran smoothly. She also gave fantastic recommendations into where to eat, drink and enjoy the locations we would stop at. Matilda did an amazing job as our rep, we were super lucky to have her. A special thank you as well to our amazing crew, Captain Frane, Sailors Fadil and Richi, Waiters/Barmen Vlaho and Marko, Chefs Bojan and Fani, and our Maid Julija. You all were absolutely amazing and so great at your jobs. Thank you! We made many fantastic memories, and new friendships too. Sail Croatia is definitely a top highlight for us.

- Nixon, 08/06/2026 06:57, Travelled in a Couple

Best holiday ever. From the boat and the tour guide, to the stops and food. Ceili, our tour guide, was amazing - super professional but still showing us where we can find something fun, interesting, and exciting. Always came up with the best suggestions and was happy to hear our experiences at places we discovered on our own. The organized group dinners, drinks, and moments were great. Thanks for taking us up that hill Ceili!! The boat and crew need a separate review of their own to brag about how perfect they were. Stews and deck hands were great - I’ll miss my dudes, Niksha and Damir. They were on point with the service and always made sure we had what we need. The Tempera boat was great. I consider myself lucky to get a chance to “live” on the beautiful boat for a week. I spent so much time on the top deck and the salon was a great place to grab a drink and take a break from the sun. 10/10 would do this all over again!

- Daniel, 04/06/2026 11:14, Travelled in a Couple

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 🍹😎👍

What a lovely vacation! This might have been one of my favorite trips ever. The Dalmatian islands are absolutely breathtaking and I would do this exact same cruise again. The ship was nice, comfortable and clean. Ceili, our tour manager, was fun, friendly, and helpful throughout the trip. Our waiters, Nikša and Dimir, were attentive, friendly and funny. Even Peter, one of the sailors was nice enough to give us some recommendations for Dubrovnik on the last day. I highly recommend Sail Croatia and I hope to be on one of their ships again soon.

- Julian, 01/06/2026 17:41, Travelled in a Couple

Calum was a great guide that kept everyone happy. Nano and all the crew of the Contessa was were awesome. The small ports access and not fighting the crowds of big cruise ships was great. I would do this exact trip with the exact group again.

The journey through the Croatian Islands from Dubrovnik to Split was amazing. The Sail Croatian representative on board Tempera had very detail knowledge of locations and activities. Tempera crew were friendly, engaging and added to a great holiday with well planned swim stops. Amazing holiday.

- Anonymous, 27/05/2026 07:25, Travelled in a Couple

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.

We recently finished a Sail Croatia cruise aboard the Contessa, and overall it was a fantastic experience. The weather took a little while to come good, but once it did, the trip really turned into something special with beautiful stops, great swimming spots, and an awesome atmosphere onboard. The Contessa is a newer ship, and while there were definitely a few early “gremlins” to work through, the crew handled everything professionally and always did their best to make sure guests were looked after and having a good time. You could tell the team genuinely cared about creating a great experience. A special mention has to go to Tino the sailor, who was an absolute standout throughout the trip. Friendly, very hardworking, and he really helped make the cruise memorable (including getting the hot tub going!) Big credit as well to Cal for keeping the vibe fun and social the entire week. Overall, despite a few small hiccups that come with a new vessel, we had an amazing time!!

It was the perfect mix of being able to relax when we wanted, explore on our own, or join in on group excursions onboard.

Our first cruise with Sail Croatia and in Croatia. Our boat, Salve Di Mare, was really impressive, comfortable, well maintained and our below deck cabin was larger than we expected. Our fellow guests were a fantastic bunch and everyone had a great time. The crew were a highlight of the cruise, especially Marco and Vlaho, our bar staff/waiters, who made sure everyone was looked after. The food was delicious and we were sad to leave the ship. Our tour guide, Nikos, was the best and ensured everyone had a great trip. I would definitely recommend this cruise and would happily book another cruise with this company.

- Alan, 25/05/2026 09:54, Travelled in a Couple

I had a fantastic time on my Sail Croatia cruise—the route, crew, and food were all great. That said, I was surprised by the 40€ tourist tax per person, which wasn’t clearly explained upfront and for which I received no receipt. I also wasn’t comfortable with how our passports were left in an unlocked plastic box in the dining salon at night, with no visible security. Tipping felt a bit awkward too, especially when envelopes were later collected over WhatsApp after limited communication. Overall, I’d still recommend Sail Croatia, but these small improvements would make the experience even better.

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!

We took the Sail Croatia Explorer Cruise from Dubrovnik to Split and we had the Time of our Lives. Our entire crew was amazing from Vicko our Representative who was incredibly personable and knowledgeable about the area. Every morning he provided us with the details of all the local spots to visit and directions on how we could get there. As well as providing amazing stories and history about the area, Our Bartenders Damir & Niksa were so friendly and attentive if we ever needed anything they were there to provide & provide a good time. Our Chefs Vlado & Daki we so amazing at preparing Gluten Free meals for my wife to fit her dietary needs and never made her feel like she was missing out on a meal. Even though we had an itinerary change due to weather our sailors and captain made us feel safe and kept us informed of the changes as soon as possible. The entire crew was so amazing and the excursions prepared even with a change were so engaging and amazing. We would do this every year!

We travelled from Split to Dubrovnik on their first cruise for the season ( 25 April) — boat was well equiped , cabin was very comfortable — ensuite bathroom great — meals weee ALL excellent and bar was well stocked and run ! Viscko our “ leader” for the week was well organised , very informative and knowledgeable , and was enthusiastic all week !! The crew were a great bunch , always there to help or just talk ! Swims off the back of the boat were BRACING but bloody good fun ! Loved our stops at all the islands — good variety of stops — always docked very close to cafes or the centres at each venue. We would travel with these guys on this boat again in a heartbeat !!

- Keith, 05/05/2026 10:33, Travelled in a Couple

Had a great time, low passenger (21) to staff ratio really helped. Couple of things though - Last cruise of the season meant we had to ask for things like spa being heated, etc - there wasn't a lot of initiative from crew in general, Also food and alcohol was running out so they weren't going to replace certain things. While we got a very SLIGHT reduction in price from peak time it did mean that we still felt as though we had to ask for things. Swim stops were awesome, but many people wanted to do more snorkelling options - It would have been easy to pull in a little closer to shore (100 metres) so we could see the bottom rather than swim there (I swam 250m there and back on one just to see the bottom). These are all minor details - the room was great, the tour manager Dino was AMAZING and dealt so well with a lot of different personalities. He responded immediately to all queries and was very patient with some of the more demanding passengers. We met great people.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

- jeremy, 20/10/2025 13:06, Travelled in a Couple

We did the Explorer trip early October '25, so the towns visited were not as busy as peak season, which was great. Interactions with Sail Croatia ahead of the trip were clear, concise and quick (I would recommend sending guests a pdf or e-mail itinerary ahead of departure). The cabins were sufficient for a week's travel, the included lunch and breakfast perfect and crew and tour manager Nikos all very helpful. Additional excursions were suggested and organised where required. The only disappointment was that we couldn't do a swim stop during any of the days due to the windy weather. One could swim at the towns, though. Just to note, Croatia along the coast has become expensive for anyone that might be travelling on a budget, but all in all the trip was well worth it. The towns and natural surrounds exceeded all expectations and experiencing it on a small cruise boat (36 guests) is highly recommended.

Swim stops. Port visits. Particularly Korcula and Omiš. Barman ‘Milan’ was a genuine, nice guy. I still believe our room ‘0’ was bigger than others. I asked and was told the rooms were the same size, however when I peeked into a twin room ours was definitely larger! Not so great - Breakfast was monotonous, same every day. Really need a FOC push button coffee machine for use throughout day. The American drip coffee was rubbish and yes paid for the nespresso style coffee from the bar but e3.50 for something not that good. Our window leading outside next to the door required a curtain as well as the twisted Venetian blind there. I had to put up a makeshift curtain to block out the exterior downlights rays coming in. We spoke to a couple who were on a Sail Croatia boat with the same timings as ours and they raved about the food, as prepared by ‘two mamas’ who obviously cooked from the heart. Unlike our chefs!!

We set up this trip with 7 couples and we didn't really know what to expect. We read all the information but we really didn't know that is was going to be a lot better than advertised. Everything about the boat and the staff was just what we had hoped. The travel, the food, the guide all made the trip a ten for us. We actually loved this trip better than when we went to Greece. The only way to travel Croatia is by boat.

- Terry, 29/09/2025 00:35, Travelled in a Couple

We had the absolute BEST time aboard the Salve di Mare sailing from Split to Dubrovnik. The route and timing of the voyage provided a steady crescendo with a stunning finale. Each island better than the last. Our tour manager Klara was very engaged, helpful, informative, personable, and frankly quite funny. We loved her. We also became very fond of our fellow travelers. The accommodations left us wanting for nothing, the meals exquisite, and the scenery and excursions just lovely and memorable. One of our best trips.

- Michael, 25/09/2025 15:35, Travelled in a Couple

For a completely different experience in visiting the Islands off the Croatian coast, there is no better way to do it than on a luxury yacht. No moving your luggage; 2 gourmet meals a day; expert tour guide with you all the time with daily briefings; daily awesome swims off the boat away from shore in the crystal clear Adriatic; full bartending; daily housekeeping; engaging crew. Meet 38 travelers from around the world & bond. Why do it any other way? I can't wait to do it again next year in a different country. Very well run organization "Sail Croatia". Just pick the one grouping of the 3 types of ships that matches your age group & desires & you're off to a memorable vacation.

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.

First of all, let me say that the people involved (crew, etc.) were excellent. I have no problem with any of them. Our cruise director was especially friendly and personable. Plus, I found Croatia to be a most beautiful country. That said, it was not one of my favorite trips. I found most places we stopped to be glorified "tourist traps." Most things were far too expensive, and we were constantly confronted with cost after cost for anything we might want to do. I think that should I ever return to Croatia, I'd probably pick one or two places and spend more time exploring more than just tourist trap stuff. I guess that could be said, however, for many such cruises, etc. Have traveled to several countries, however, this will not be considered one of my favorites.

- Kenneth, 15/09/2025 10:23, Travelled in a Couple

We had an amazing time on our sail Croatia yoga cruise. The entire crew was amazing, kind and friendly. Very hardworking and deserve more down time off between charters. The boat was wonderful and rooms clean and good size vs expectations. The chef was awesome and made delicious meals every day. Breakfast was basic with some meats cheeses, fruit, toast, eggs. My suggestion would be a blender for smoothie and microwave to reheat cold food. Lunch was delicious but having an idea of what it is before hand would be helpful for those selective eaters so they can have more breakfast or select the vegetarian option if they want. The yoga was great and excursions were fun and easy to sign up with each day. Posting the options on the whiteboard in the saloon, daily meals and schedule etc would be very helpful to prevent so many msgs on what’s up. I found the group chat nice but too many msgs and questions of things we were already told. Overall, we loved it and would do it again! Thanks

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 highlight of a Sail Croatia cruise are the incredible islands you visit and the fun activities available on all. I could nit-pick over little things we did not like which is why we give it a 4-star not 5. More than happy to share the constructive comments if you like in a separate communication.

The captain of the boat and chef were excellent but other staff were openly stating they were over the season and complaining or arguing with the customers. The cruise director twice had harsh words with us through no fault of our own which is unacceptable.

- Peter, 08/09/2025 06:33, Travelled in a Couple

Did a western med cruise with my Mrs on the MSC Splendida. We were treated like royalty from the minute we got on, till we got off. Extremely pleased with everything on board including the fantastic staff. Food was also 10/10 in the restaurant. Booking another cruise with you guys an will be looking forward to it.

- Brian , 03/09/2025 19:28, Travelled in a Couple

The overall organization of the trip was top not notch from the time we met our boat in Dubrovnik and ended the trip in Split. Day to day activities coupled with Island hopping was the best. The actual trip was much more than what was described in the literature from Sail Croatia.

- Phillip, 01/09/2025 20:51, Travelled in a Couple

Dino and the crew made this cruise an absolute delight

- Gavan, 01/09/2025 08:55, Travelled in a Couple

We were onboard Almissa for our split to Dubrovnik cruise and we couldn’t fault it. Dino our tour manager made everything so easy and adjusted the itinerary to suit the weather and make sure we were able to see all the sights. The waiters, sailors, captain and chefs also did an unreal job at tending to all our needs. 3 course lunches and buffet breakfasts were perfect. Would definitely do this trip again without hesitation.

- Adam, 01/09/2025 08:32, Travelled in a Couple

The whole trip and itinerary was great! Loved exploring all the towns and the swim stops in between! Cant recommend this experience enough! Special mention to Max, who was really the highligh of our trip! Always checked in with us and made sure we were having a great time! He is the gem of the Tempera! Food was good and we loved our experience!

- Darren, 01/09/2025 06:59, Travelled in a Couple

We had a really lovely time. We were lucky enough to only have 16 people on our boat which meant we had lots of space and there was no issues getting deckchairs etc. I would imagine that with 40 people on board the boat would feel a little cramped, and getting a deckchair might be something of a challenge. The boat itself is beautiful and well looked after. The staff were really lovely and very accommodating. Unfortunately, the food was not good and certainly didn't math the price point. This was an opinion was shared by many of the other guests. Besides this, everything else on the boat was great. The Itinerary (Split - Dubrovnik) was great. The stops were beautiful and the excursions offered were on the whole really great. Overall it was a great experience and we had a lovely time.

- Sam, 28/08/2025 00:27, Travelled in a Couple

Unforgettable experience!! If you're travelling alone and having second thoughts about doing this I'd highly recommend doing it. Dino and the crew we're incredible, making everyone feel at home. The food was delicious , the activities were so much fun and our swim spots were majestic. This is something you have to do atleast once. Thank you all!!

- Renny, 27/08/2025 09:28, Travelled Solo

We really enjoyed the size of the boat, the crew who was very helpful but gave plenty of space to the guests. The food was good as well. We enjoyed the relaxed nature of the boat and we could come and go as we wanted to in the ports. The recommendations from the crew was very helpful. Thanks again.

- Paul Shogren, 26/08/2025 17:06, Travelled in a Couple

Having cruised 8+ times in different parts of the world in groups of 4 to 8 friends or family we were a little nervous of a boat with 26 other people my wife and I would have to mingle with, regardless of whether we lijed them or not. We were also concerned with a bar tab that was not payable by card or pre-paid with a drinks package prior. However, we wanted a more intimate and overnight relationship with the towns and restaurants that a cruise boat cannot provide. Sail Croatia exceeded our expectations. With ~28 others + crew of 6 & an onboard tour operator/guide we all bonded very quickly. Kristina & I are 60. There was a couple who were 62. Everyone else was 30's, 40's & 50's. Yes, the 30's partied hard but were respectful & were on well earned breaks from their jobs/businesses. Onboard meals were excellent. Guide had wide range of suggestions from high to low $$ for dinners & excursions. Cabins comfortable but not at same standard as a cruise boat. Overall you should not hesitate.

- Simon, 25/08/2025 16:04, Travelled in a Couple

Very knowledgeable cruise manager/guide and great, hardworking staff

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

Sail Croatia is amazing. The experience was tranquil. The crew went above and beyond to ensure we felt at home on board. Highly recommend! We will do this again!

- Ryan, 24/08/2025 11:59, Travelled in a Couple

An amazing week exploring all Croatia has to offer. Dino was amazing and the rest of the passengers helped make it a memorable experience. We’ll be back

- Andrew, 23/08/2025 23:19, Travelled in a Couple

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 service staff was as friendly, efficient and as sweet as could be. Our tour director, Dino, was always there for us and provided great tips on what to do (and not to do) at each port of call. The kitchen chef and his/her team did an incredible job in terms of taste and presentation of each meal. Everything happened as programmed. And the places we visited were magnificent. Fellow travelers, mostly from Australia on my particular cruise, was the icing on the cake. A great bunch! Thanks Sail Croatia, and thanks to our Captain as well who took us on a very smooth journey.

- Ronny, 20/08/2025 15:56, Travelled Solo

We had an amazing experience with a great host, Vicko, who made the week so enjoyable and memorable. All the crew were amazing , from our bartenders, Milan and Max, and to the cooking staff. What was also unbelievable were the other people other boat. We made long life friends and we had a great time with them all. We would definitely do this again and recommend this to all our friends. Thanks again to Sail Croatia for a wonderful time

- Charlie Haddad , 20/08/2025 15:06, Travelled in a Couple

This was our first leg of our two way holiday starting at Split going to Dubrovnik then back to Split. All i can say is wow. What an amazing week. Swim stops were amazing Big Vic our guide was awesome and made the trip that much better. All staff were great and we were blown away with the scenery and beautiful ports every day. Highly recommending this to anyone

- Anonymous, 19/08/2025 08:18, Travelled in a Couple

Thoroughly enjoyed this cruise. Crew were helpful and friendly. Captain was skilled. Cabins and in fact the whole ship was clean and beautifully maintained. Dino, our guide, was amazing with his knowledge, humor and communication with the guests. The cruise destinations were very interesting and scenic. All in all I was impressed with the experience.

- Roy, 19/08/2025 06:04, Travelled in a Couple

Dino the host, the food and the itinerary.

- Rob , 19/08/2025 04:19, Travelled Solo

We had the best time cruising the seas on Sail Croatia Tempera. Big Vic our guide was amazing, so friendly, funny and informative nothing was a problem for him. The staff were all amazing and our group of people we got to meet were awesome. I couldnt recommend one of these cruises enough, best holiday we have ever had.

- Marcus, 19/08/2025 00:05, Travelled in a Couple

Our Sail Croatia trip was absolutely stunning. From Split to Dubrovnik, to heaven and back. We had 7 amazing days of fun, making new friends, unbelievable crew, great day trips, stunning swim stops and although I came into the trip with high expectations they were exceeded - and some!!! From Barbara our wonderful host to Cezar (The King) and Kiki our waiters and party starters, Josip the Captain, our sailors Ivan and Marko and our amazing chefs Marko and Bobi - the Croatia Sail / Almissa team was unbelievable. My first holiday in years where absolutely everything was spot on. Clean ship, good rooms, comfy beds and THE SHOTS. Thanks to the staff and our new friends xx

- David, 18/08/2025 19:46, Travelled in a Couple

All of the staff onboard were amazing. Our captain Josip ensured a smooth trip and even switched up some ports on the fly when he found out how busy Hvar was going to be on our scheduled day. The sailors Ivan and Marko were great fun and we felt super safe in their capable hands. Our waiters/bartenders Kiki and Cezar were absolutely incredible. They had everything ready for our onboard breakfast and lunch well ahead of time and always made time for quick chats and banter as the days rolled on. The chef's onboard, Marko and Bobi, whipped up some incredible feats for us. Honestly some of the best food I've ever had and they somehow managed it all in a tiny kitchen! Last but not least, our tour guide Barbara made the experience so seamless. We were notified of everything well before time and she gave us great recommendations at each port for various things to do. It was clear she loves the work and was able to provide a once in a lifetime experience for all of us onboard.

- Logan, 18/08/2025 16:10, Travelled in a Couple

The cruise was perfect from the moment we set off to the moment we returned. The crew on Salve Di Mare were brilliant and our tour manager Lola was absolutely amazing. The boat and locations were stunning. I cannot recommend this cruise enough.

- Sam, 18/08/2025 13:14, Travelled in a Couple

My wife and I planned this trip so my wife could visit the homeland of her grandmother. This was the best way to experience Croatia and the Dalmatian Islands. The crew was excellent. Dino and Capt Josip managed through upcoming potential weather patterns to maximize our enjoyment. The other travelers quickly became friends and eventually we all felt like a family. Cruising with Sail Croatia is definitely recommended to anyone we interact with once the topic of vacation enters the conversation. Thank you to Dino, Capt Josip, Kristina, Cesar, Ivan, Capo, Bogdan and Marko. You are all assets to the brand. My wife and I will be traveling with Sail Croatia again.

- Michael, 12/08/2025 10:15, Travelled in a Couple

Great crew, great boat, great times, great fellow passengers .

- Ron, 11/08/2025 13:45, Travelled in a Couple

An absolutely stunning week, our guide for the week Lola and all the staff onboard were fantastic. We can't imagine having a better week.

- John, 11/08/2025 13:10, Travelled in a Couple

Dino was an amazing guide. We were always well informed about what was happening and recommendations both in the lunch briefing and in the group chat. He was always available if you had any questions. The food was amazing and the crew were friendly and efficient.

- Matt, 11/08/2025 04:48, Travelled in a Couple

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

We really enjoyed our time on the Salve Di Mare. The locations we visited were beautiful! Absolutely stunning. Our cruise director Dino was friendly and informative. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. I wouldn't say anyone went above and beyond though. The rooms were nice and always cleaned well. The cruise is expensive and we really do not believe that is was worth the price we paid. The food was average at best. Well cooked, but boring. Breakfast was front 8 -9.30 with zero flexibility. No food or options for food is offered between breakfast and lunch. So if you miss breakfast, bad luck. Lunch was a 3 course meal and although I eat everything, my partner doesn't eat fish and instead received a piece of 'stuffed' half zucchini instead. During swim stops, which were again, stunning! While on the top deck reading a book, no one ever came up to ask if you'd like a drink! I found that the most puzzling. Wouldn't you want to make money?! Hard to give 3 stars, we loved it!

- Luke Carvell, 04/08/2025 08:10, Travelled in a Couple

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

We had the most amazing time sailing with Sail Croatia! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The boat was surprisingly spacious — the rooms were much larger than we imagined for a boat, and everything was spotless throughout the trip. The food was absolutely delicious. But what truly made the trip unforgettable was the staff on this trip. Huge shoutout to our fantastic guide Klara, who was knowledgeable, helpful, and always full of positive energy. We also want to give a special thanks to Christina, Ceaser, Marcos, and Evan — the most upbeat, friendly, and professional crew we could have asked for. Their good vibes and incredible service truly elevated our whole experience. We’ll 100% be back for another Sail Croatia adventure. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and memorable sailing holiday!

- Cody, 30/07/2025 15:55, Travelled in a Couple

Our experience with Sail Croatia - Almissa was fantastic! The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making us feel special every step of the way. The tour guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and went out of their way to ensure we had a memorable trip. We truly enjoyed the week exploring beautiful destinations, and it was an unforgettable adventure thanks to the wonderful team. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an amazing sailing holiday!

- Royce, 23/07/2025 08:30, Travelled in a Couple

This was the best holiday ever. Everyone at Sail Croatia made the trip memorable and made sure everyone had everything they needed. The ports were so beautiful and the people of Croatia were wonderful. I would recommend Sail Croatia to everyone I know. Great work!!!

- Rob, 22/07/2025 17:28, Travelled in a Couple

Was a pleasant suprise having Captain Gordan again 11 years later! Trip was spectacular with highly knowledgeable guide Vicko. The hospitality on board Kraljica Jelena was stellar. Loved the Captain's Dinner which was very traditional Croatian, so it felt like I was eating at home! Great swim stops and fantastic round two. Would go again!

- Robert, 22/07/2025 09:56, Travelled in a Couple

The itinerary was well planned, The crew on the tempura boat was excellent. Food and swim spots were great. We met amazing people from around the world. Would highly recommend doing a cruise like this for others!

- Mark, 22/07/2025 03:26, Travelled in a Couple

Our trip was good overall. The boat was fantastic, and the crew did a great job. The swim stops were good fun for the first few days, but it got a bit repetitive after a while, especially when it goes for multiple hours. This however also means we get limited time at each destination. Just enough to have dinner before the sun sets, walk around a little, and then the boat is off by 7 or 8am the next morning. Also, we booked the explorer cruise thinking it wasnt the young party cruise, nor the golden oldies cruise. We were hoping for a mid age crowd with like minded people - this wasn't really the case. I will say though however, the people we did share the boat with were all a pleasure. It delivered what was advertised. But if I knew then what I know now, I'd probably just have booked my own trip through croatia, giving us more time in locations where we want to be and not wasting days at locations with little to offer or waiting to dock.

- Frank, 21/07/2025 15:18, Travelled in a Couple

This was a great way to explore Croatia. Relaxing mornings with scenic cruising and secluded swimming. Plenty of time to explore the various islands once docked and great staff onboard to take care of us. One worry we had before cruising was room size and being able to dry clothes but this was fine. We sailed on Tempera and the rooms were good size with sufficient room to unpack and stow suitcases. There are also clothes lines run around the perimeter of the boat for easy drying of swimwear / clothes / towels.

- Brad, 19/07/2025 06:40, Travelled in a Couple

Despite not being able to do the planned itinerary due to bad weather we had a fabulous time. All the boat crew were amazingly friendly and the food was varied and delicious. Rooms comfortable and very clean an the a/c worked very well and was needed.

- Martin, 18/07/2025 07:00, Travelled in a Couple

Hands down best way to experience the diverse islands of Croatia! With overnight stops at islands in between in Dubrovnik + Split, you can really see it all. The guides do a great job suggesting local excursions + places to eat. Plus the daily swim stops are awesome! I recommend the Explorer cruise if you are looking for a good balance of fun + sightseeing without too much party :)

- Gavin, 15/07/2025 18:40, Travelled in a Couple

Dino and staff were fantastic and made it a great trip.

- Andrew, 14/07/2025 17:31, Travelled in a Couple

We booked the Explorer cruise on board Tempera from Split to Dubrovnik and I can tell you we ended up very happy with our choice. Firstly, the ship Tempera made us feel right at home. Our cabin was cozy, decent size with everything you might need. The highlight there was definitely the window with amazing views to wake up to every morning.. Take the above deck cabin just for that. The food was great! Breakfast just diverse enough to get you ready for the day ahead (try the watermelon) and 3course lunch which was always delicious. The itinerary was breathtaking; either while on the way, the swim stops or the ports of call. Writing this 3 days later I still can't decide which destination was my favorite. All of the excursions were fun and different from each other so not one day felt the same. After excursions we still had enough time to explore (or party) which was awesome! Big thanks to all of the crew without which this trip wouldn't be as memorable and so hard to match in the future!

- Emil, 14/07/2025 09:31, Travelled in a Couple

Our Sail Croatia Explorer cruise on the Tempera exceeded our expectations. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the food was top-notch! The entire crew was great...always very attentive to anything we needed. Cal, our amazing tour leader, made the week truly memorable. From restaurant/attraction suggestions at each stop, to interesting historical info about all of the islands, and of course, his great taste in music (that playlist!), he was the perfect guide for our incredible week on-board! Thanks Cal! Highlights of our trip included the daily swim stops, exploring all the islands, and the wonderful new friends we met on the boat.

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

The trip was well organised and the staff aboard, excellent. Our tour guide/organiser kept us well informed.

- Phil , 07/07/2025 11:02, Travelled in a Couple

We sailed from Split to Dubrovnik over 7 days on the Almissa.. An experience I will remember always, the team aboard the vessel were fantastic with their hospitality and knowledge. The scenery and locations we were taken to were truly amazing and made even more enjoyable with their hospitality knowledge shared by our host/guide Dino. The weather and other passengers was perfect which added to the week of fun and relaxation. Highly recommended Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a wonderful vacation.

- Tim, 07/07/2025 03:55, Travelled in a Couple

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.

- Anonymous, 03/07/2025 17:13, Travelled with Family

From the intimate feel of a small cruise ship and new friends made, to the very fun and friendly staff, to the incredible views and historical locations we visited, and the delicious cuisine that could be found everywhere - there was no trip I have ever had that compares. Lola was friendly, knowledgeable, responsive, and honest about the locations and excursions, Captain Josif, Cezar, Kristina, Marco, and the rest of the Almissa staff were simply remarkable and deserve recognition for their customer service!

- Joe, 01/07/2025 13:54, Travelled in a Couple

Great Boat (Slave Di Mare), Great Crew (thanks to Arian, Frane, Vlaho, Duje, Tina, Mario & Monica), Brilliant Cruise Director (thanks Klara), beautiful scenery, delicious food, comfortable cabin & endless swim stops in gorgeous turquoise bays. Thoroughly recommend

- Bernie, 01/07/2025 13:54, Travelled in a Couple

This cruise was the highlight of our 7 week Europe trip, we wouldn’t change a thing. The crew was amazing all so friendly and welcoming, food each day was faultless from the 2 amazing chefs. We made some Great friends from all around the world on this cruise ranging from 18-75. A massive shout out to our guide Dino, this guy made the trip. From our first meeting it felt like I had known him for years, his story’s, his organisation, direction and knowledge all was more than amazing and made life on the boat so easy knowing he will sort everything out for you, if you wanted a day experience he would book it arrange pick up and drop off from the boat, if you wanted tea Dino would organise that too. This guy was made for the job and couldn’t recommend him highly enough. Would highly recommend this cruise and company and can’t wait to do it again.

- Mathew , 30/06/2025 16:55, Travelled in a Couple

The staff, everyone was fabulously friendly and hardworking. Special mention to Klara, tour leader- she was amazing - knowledgeable, funny, kind and meticulous in planning and organization. Passionate about her role, but became like a friend to everyone. You have a jewel in her. .

- Mary-anne, 30/06/2025 13:37, Travelled in a Couple

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

Our 7 day cruise from Dubrovnik to Split visited some amazing Islands and old towns, each with their own unique experiences. Our cruise director Dino was a fantastic host and organised all our of activities. Nothing was too difficult and he was a great energy to have around throughout the trip. Tempera was an excellent boat to travel on with great accommodation, consistently good meals and fantastic staff who made us feel right at home. We would recommend Tempera and Sail Croatia to anyone considering a Croatian cruise holiday.

- Scott, 24/06/2025 22:45, Travelled in a Couple

I am amazed by how wonderful the trip was. It was pretty well planned, with the breakfasts, the swim stops, and the lunches. The food was exceptional too. The crew and host Klara on board Almissa were knowledgeable and helpful. Overall, an unforgettable experience.

Everything was very well organised and relaxed throughout the weeks sailing, food was absolutely fantastic and others onboard were very welcoming and easy to get along with! We will be back

I don't do cruises. I in fact hate cruises. But Klara and all the crew aboard the Almissa changed my perspective. Wonderful service, amazing, staff, and a fun but professional atmosphere made my 7 day voyage amazing. I would absolutely do this trip again (hopefully not smashing my elbow after falling off a bicycle this time!)

- Travis, 23/06/2025 13:13, Travelled in a Couple

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

Amazing week onboard Tempera with great crew. The crew worked hard to ensure everything was perfect. Dino was fantastic as tour manager with superb knowledge and great personality. He ensured we all got the most out of our week and provided a high level of personal service. Food was plentiful and to a high standard. All in all a brilliant week!

- Matt, 16/06/2025 06:12, Travelled in a Couple

Cruise Director Dino was excellent. He consistently exceeded expectations. Not only did he keep us well informed of our upcoming schedule, he always provided guidance and recommendations for our free time that were very helpful. Captain and crew were also first rate. They were always friendly and very good at their respective jobs. Would recommend this to any friend.

- Rob, 16/06/2025 04:47, Travelled in a Couple

Everything about the cruise was amazing! The crew, the destinations, and the food served on board were all great. Aside from enjoying the beautiful Croatia islands, I also really enjoyed our swim stops! The water was a little cold at the beginning of June, but not unbearable. It was wonderful getting to know the other travelers on our boat. Sail Croatia is a 10/10 experience for families, friends, or even solo travelers.

- Zachary, 15/06/2025 00:50, Travelled in a Couple

My Fiance and I are 26 and 31. We booked the Explorer cruise on the Salve Di Mare from Split to Dubrovnik. We truly believe we picked the best cruise option and the nicest boat. Check-in was easy, our Sail Croatia guide Vicko was simply amazing from start to finish. The food, too, was exceptionally good - some of the best food we had on our whole trip. The entire staff was friendly and pleasant to be around. We had a change of route due to a failed refueling, and the crew adapted our route nicely to still have us spend the day at a lovely island. In summary, we had the time of our lives and can't imagine visiting Croatia any other way. 10./10.

- Daniel , 11/06/2025 23:59, Travelled in a Couple

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.

While this was somewhat of a good experience, there was too much down time, internet reception was extremely poor and whilst the crew were friendly enough they did not seem to want to go above and beyond, then at the end of the cruise, we were nearly shamed in to giving a tip, it was most uncomfortable.

- Anonymous, 10/06/2025 00:24, Travelled in a Couple

Food quality - Near prison food. Fish was dry, food unseasoned at all. Your best dishes were soup and 1 pasta meal. Drink prices - total rip off your drink prices rivalled Hvar.. Communication * This involves calling hvar the party island even though it is no longer as such, also being told 2 days before the end of the trip we could order eggs for breakfast..* Pay your workers decent wages. Being told that they are paid less because tips are expected is a joke. Your not America. Tips are standard in a terrible country like America to get around the fact they have shitty minimum wage laws. If you offered me this trip again for free I would refuse. I also will be letting anyone who ever asks me about sailing through Croatia not to bother. They would be better off organising a private car / ferry transportation to a select few islands that would still end up cheaper than the price you charge.
