Sail Croatia “tempera”

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.

Exceeded my expectations!

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.

More Than a Cruise - Salve Di Mare

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.

Explorer Almissa 30/05

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

Tempera

Excellent. Calum was our tour guide on the boat Tempera, he was very knowledgeable, very friendly and couldn’t do enough to assist in what ever we needed.

Unforgettable vacation

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).

Amazing 2025 vacation

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 !

Amazing experience!

The staff, captain and cruise director were all great and truly put forth the effort to make the trip memorable. The Yacht was the perfect size with 20 well appointed guest suites. Croatia is a very well kept, clean and amazing country with beautiful ports and friendly people. This is definitely a must experience destination and I highly recommend you charter with Sail Croatia.

Great cruise to great places.

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.

- Scott, 29/09/2025 06:54, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing way to see Croatia

My husband and I loved the itinerary, and all the friends we made on board. 7 days of stunning swim stops, time to read a book or play a game of dice. 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.

A great cruising holiday

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

Tempura Dubrovnik to Split

The scenery, architecture and stunning islands were amazing. Safe and clean everywhere. Outstanding food on board and all staff gave us great service.

Tempera

Awesome crew and tour leader Dino. The food was delicious. The crew and Dino couldn't be more helpful with anything required or requested. Special mention to the crew and Captain; Maksa, Millan and the chef's for an awesome week on board. Maksa was the best barman and waiter, he was not well for a couple of days but continued with the best service with a smile and always a joke or two thrown in 👏

Great Staff, Great Customer Service, Incredible guests.

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.

Amazing adventure, fantastic value!

I was pleasantly surprised how well this voyage was handled - from boarding, cruising, the food, the crew, and especially the information and suggestions from our cruise director Vicko. Croatia is beautiful and this was such a great way to see it! It was a perfect way for our group to be together while still all having our own unique adventures...

Great Friends Getaway

Perfect size in terms of fellow passengers (30); Crew (7): Travel time (week); Port locations (easy on -off); Itinerary (a few excursions, daily swim, ample free time); Motor yacht (easily navigated, comfortable). Beautiful locations (Split, Markaska, Hvar, Shipen, Dubrovnik). Great boat / cruise manager (Maliante w/ Sasha). Highly recommended.

Best boat food on the Adriatic

Sasa and the crew were the best. My favorite was the chef though.

Solo traveller

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!!

My Wonderful Experience with Sail Croatia

I recently booked a Sail Croatia tour with friends and had the most wonderful experience. The boat itself was one of the older boats, but very comfortable and met all our needs. I cannot say enough about the friendly staff. They were all so very accommodating to us and never hesitated to ensure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The chef on board was also very kind and worked hard to make sure we had plenty of great food to eat. There were plenty of fun excursions to keep everyone busy on the cruise including wine tastings, swimming, hikes, and my favorite...the dune buggies. One of the more unexpected aspects of the trip for me was the wonderful people we met on board our boat. We made some incredibly friendships and were extended invitations to our newfound friend's countries as well. I have no doubt we will keep up with these lovely people we met. I would highly recommend booking a cruise with Sail Croatia...Five Stars!

For a solo traveler, returned with a whole new group of friends

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.

Great Experinece!

The crew was extremely accommodating to everyone on board, attentive to needs and very helpful when it came to recommendations, booking excursions, dinner reservations, etc. Everyone was beyond generous and fun to be around. This was my first sail trip and it was such a good time that I plan to book another in the future! Thank you, Sail Croatia!

Sail Croatia exceeds expectations again!

This was our second Sail Croatia experience, and it was just as fantastic as the first. The crew was exemplary, and special thanks must go to our wonderful Cruise Director, Ana. Her attention to detail and genuine enthusiasm ensured every aspect of our trip was a memorable adventure. I would have no hesitation in recommending Sail Croatia to anyone seeking a unique and unforgettable holiday. The only minor issue we encountered was with the cabin allocation. While this didn't detract significantly from our overall enjoyment, a more thoughtful approach to cabin assignments could have elevated the experience from a four-star cruise to a truly exceptional one.

Best trip!

We had a fantastic time aboard the Salve Di Mare. Captain Frane is a master at the helm. Felt completely safe and comfortable with his piloting skills. Dino was great as tour guide. Friendly and very knowledgeable. Marco and the entire crew were excellent. Food was great. So glad we sailed with your company. We are planning another trip to beautiful Croatia next year with additional family members and will most likely book with Sail Croatia. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing

If you’re considering a Sail Croatia cruise, I can’t recommend it enough—especially aboard the Tempera. The trip was one of the most enjoyable and well-organised I’ve ever taken, thanks to the exceptional crew. Our tour manager Anita was outstanding—professional, warm, and incredibly helpful. She made everything run smoothly and added a personal touch throughout. Maksim and Milan, our waiters, were equally fantastic—always smiling, attentive, and full of positive energy. The food was a highlight: fresh, beautifully presented, and consistently delicious. Each day struck a perfect balance between adventure and relaxation, with everything so well organised that we could just enjoy the experience. If you’re thinking of exploring Croatia by sea, choose Sail Croatia—you won’t regret it.

Salve di Mare

Dino and the crew first and foremost. The itinerary and everything planned out so well with swim stops, activities and free time. The food was great and being able to eat on the islands was a great experience. The entire group of guests were friendly and we all got along well. Getting to know other passengers is very meaningful.

- Brad, 17/07/2025 09:19, Travelled with Friend/s

Amazing Trip

We had high expectations coming into our Sail Croatia cruise on the Salve Di Mare, and those expectations were greatly exceeded by the experience and the crew. The Dalmatian Coastline is stunning, definitely more stunning than the pictures yo see. The crew was very attentive and helpful. The crew made sure we had the best time possible. Our guide, Dino, was great helping setup experiences for all of us on the boat. We made new friends that we will stay connected with in the future. If you're thinking about taking a cruise with Sail Croatia, and specifically on the Salve Di Mare, I could not give them a higher recommendation!

Amazing experience!

Calum and the crew were great, food was amazing and everything was well organized! Enjoyed the swim stops and time in each town. Would've appreciated better coffee in the morning, the coffee was very weak. Thanks for an unforgettable trip!

Amazing experience

Had the most incredible week with Explorer Sail Croatia, made even better by our amazing guide, Callum. From day one, he made the experience feel personal and unforgettable. He struck the perfect balance between fun and chill, tailoring recommendations to suit everyone – whether you wanted to explore or just relax. Callum’s local knowledge, energy, and attention to detail truly set the tone for the whole trip. He created a great vibe, made sure everyone felt included, and took us to some unforgettable spots we never would’ve found on our own. It felt more like travelling with a good friend than being on a tour. Highly recommend – and if you get Callum as your guide, you’re in for a real treat!

- Nathan, 30/06/2025 05:32, Travelled with Friend/s

Sail Croatia and Dino are the best

The whole process of research, booking and payment with Sail Croatia and staff was easy and problem free. The staff made sure all details were covered and our traveling friends were all grouped together on the same boat. The the arrival day and first impression was our week long host Dino. He was a fantastic first impression and just got better as the week continued. Dino set up any activity you wanted and made sure his people had the best seats and service. At one activity the venue seated part of our group in the sun. Dino spoke to the venue and had everyone in his group moved to seats in the shade. That attention to detail and Dino's work made our adventure the best it could be. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and Dino for your next adventure.

An Excellent Trip!

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.

Perfect vacation!

Sail Croatia was fantastic! We sailed on the Almissa and had a wonderful time. Captain Josip and his crew are everything you could ask for and made us feel like a welcomed part of their “at sea” family. Our Sail Croatia host, Lola, was just as wonderful, and words cannot accurately express how impressed we were with her. Book the Almissa through Sail Croatia — you won’t be disappointed!

What an experience!

From the moment we arrived to the moment we left nothing was too much trouble for the crew and guides. Everything was explained to us for the next day and again on the morning. The food was good and plentiful. The cabins are small but you aren't in them that often so you can live with that. Small observation by all my group was that it would have been good to be able to buy snacks along with drinks eg crisps, nuts etc as we were advised we could not bring any food on board. Loved it all!

- Helena , 19/05/2025 11:00, Travelled with Friend/s

As advertised

The whole crew was an attentive, fun, hardworking group, which added to the great experience. The food was beyond expectations, it was a friendly environment and the agenda and information about upcoming stops was perfect. Our group had an amazing time. Highly recommend.

Sale di Mare, Split to Dubrovnik

The guide, Anita, was excellent. Charming, efficient and most helpful. It was a joy to have such service. I cannot recommend her too much. The crew were very helpful. Food not so good- too much overcooked meat, just one fish dish in 7 days.. Good bar service. Most enjoyable party after the captain',s dinner- lots of dancing ! I did not engage in excursions, as too strenuous for my age.. Others enjoyed them.. Cabin fine and very efficient and pleasant cleaner.
