The Sail Croatia experience is wonderful. The people on board became fast friends after only one day. The singing, the laughter the wonderful swim stops. My only complaint would be to have better coffee on board, and skip the Village Dinner, our dinner was in Korcula and there were some amazing restaurants we could have gone to instead of a loud, marginal meal on hard seats. The party bus on the return ride was a highlight though. I heard the wine tour before the Village dinner was exceptional. All in all an experience I will not forget. The staff worked hard to make sure each day was exceptional.

The boat, location, our hosts, the food and the swim stops!

Our tour director Calum was excellent, he drove a perfect mix between professional/organised and facilitating a fun, positive and hilarious atmosphere. The whole week ran smoothly, the activity and food suggestions were spot on. The crew on EOS were such a well oiled group. The service was impeccable, so efficient and the crew were always polite and welcoming. Can't thank both Calum and the crew enough for showcasing everything Croatia had to offer. Such a beautiful country made even more memorable by the way it was experienced. Thanks team!

Morning swims were refreshing, friendships were made and Mia the director had great suggestions for each stop. The captain and crew were family who met all our needs. They were wonderful hosts! We had a fantastic time!

We cruised on the Salve di Mare and had a great experience from start to finish! Monica in Sales was my first point of contact and she was friendly, professional and always quick to respond. A pleasure to work with! The cruise itself far exceeded our expectations, primarily because of our Tour Manager, Vicko. He was outstanding!! Not only did he keep us informed about each day's itinerary and the optional excursions, he provided rich historical context and interesting trivia as well. He is a walking textbook on Croatia - but not in a stuffy professor-like way. Everyone on board absolutely loved him! Our bartenders, Marco and Vlaho, were also very service-oriented and friendly. They did an excellent job. As for the food, it was delicious! The chefs make everything on board so each dish was fresh and tasty. Passenger-wise, there were only 40 of us so we were able to get to know one another rather quickly. I suspect that many new (life long?) friendships were formed. Thanks, Sail Croatia!

The boat - Romantic Star - was spotlessly clean. The cabins were a good size with en-suite bathroom. Plenty of hot water and a great shower. The food was amazing, buffet breakfast, cookies at 11 and lunch at 1 . How the chef produces such wonderful meals is beyond me!always a starter, a main course and a dessert.. the swim stops were lovely and the visits interesting. The village meal was lovely as was the Captain’s dinner. All very laid back - I took far too many clothes🥴.this was a great way to see the islands and towns and cities of Croatia. I can highly recommend this trip and sail Croatia

My husband and I had wonderful adventure! The swim stops were the best. The crew and captain did an incredible job. Sasa the cruise director did an outstanding job keeping us informed and answering questions or concerns in a matter of seconds! We absolutely will be back one day for another trip. Kind regards, Sandi & Ken

Comfortable cabin. Tasty food. My food preferences were accommodated. Nice tours were organised. Tour operator was pleasant and accommodating. Standard of wine was good.
- Denise , 16/09/2025 15:39, Travelled Solo
Queen Jelena is a beautiful ship and we appreciated her elegance. Everything was organized perfectly. The service and food was incredible. Our guide Ioana was amazing, she gave detailed explanations of the days and next nexts plans and optional activities. This was followed up by written explanations on WhatsApp which was very helpful I would have no hesitation in recommending this trip to anyone
- Liz, 16/09/2025 13:46, Travelled in a Couple
Sailing to the small island towns of Croatia on the beautiful yacht Katarina has to be one of the best experiences I’ve had. The accommodations were lovely, the food was wonderful, and the crew were amazing! I can’t imagine enjoying the beauty of Croatia any other way!
- Janice, 16/09/2025 11:17, Travelled in a Couple
First off our guides, Ivica and Ilona were the best. They kept 30+ people of differing interests and physical ability engaged and enthusiastic every single day.....even the day it rained. The routes chosen provided spectacular views and gave us the opportunity to see parts of the islands that visitors to only the port towns would miss. The ship was comfortable and meals on board were very good with a some outstanding moments. Daily information on the plans and suggestions for that day took all the guesswork out of it. Very well organized with everything planned to the last detail but also flexible depending on group preferences and weather.
- Wendy, 16/09/2025 05:24, Travelled in a Couple
The combination of a cruise and e-bike trip was perfect for us
- Pauline , 16/09/2025 04:38, Travelled in a Couple
Our experience with Sail Croatia was phenomenal! It was one of the best trips we've ever taken - offering a nice balance of relaxation on the boat and activities on the islands. It was great to have flexibility to explore on our own (using recommendations provided if we wish) or opt in to the excursions. We enjoyed that we docked in port every night so we could stay out and enjoy the island as long as we wanted. All of the staff were so welcoming, kind, and provided top notch hospitality! We also really enjoyed meeting our fellow shipmates and actually formed some deep friendships with others on the boat, which was unexpected but made the experience that much more special. We highly recommend this cruise!
- Katie, 15/09/2025 22:46, Travelled with Family
Our guides were Josko & Ana, what a team! We had a couple of windy days & one wet day. The communication was quick & kept us updated with options for our bike trips. The banter was fun & their knowledge of history/ old stories kept us intrigued. They were very giving with their time & expertise, & we felt they went above & beyond to make sure we had plenty of information to plan & enjoy our onshore time. The boat crew were great, always available & worked hard to make sure everything ran smoothly. The meals… no one went hungry with our chef! If you’re on the fence about this tour, you will not be disappointed!
- Leigh, 15/09/2025 18:56, Travelled in a Couple
We were blessed to have a wonderful and friendly crew and 2 guides Ilona and Ivica who kept us safe and informed whilst having great fun on the bikes! A group of like minded people on the boat just added to the experience! What a great opportunity to explore such picturesque places combined with biking, swimming and a little walking and sometimes dancing in the evening (you needed to exercise off the amazing meals prepared by our skilful chef). A fun week which ended a little to soon! Thanks to crew and fellow travellers for an amazing experience!
- Robyn, 15/09/2025 14:21, Travelled in a Couple
We had been before, the trip was as good as before but the food was so much better. The boat was better too and we had upstairs cabins that we liked better.
- TESSA, 15/09/2025 13:11, Travelled in a Couple
I loved all the old towns in each place, the swim stops and for us the people. The boat crew and our tour manager Sasha were great humans - thanks Sail Croatia.

Information of area visited, swim spots, planning to accommodate weather, beautiful clean rooms, friendly staff and fabulous food

We had an amazing week sailing around Croatia as a family. Our skipper Bruno was really knowledgable about the different towns and sites and managed to accommodate all the activities we wanted to do as part of our trip from zip lining to hiking. We were especially impressed with the swim stops along the way and he really found the balance of being around when we needed him but also to give us our space. The boat was perfect for us as first time sailors and we had an amazing time and would absolutely do it again. Thank you, Bruno!
- Channy, 15/09/2025 11:05, Travelled with Family
We did the sail and cycle in September and it was great. The crew were great, our guides were hands down amazing, the food on board was terrific. We used hybrid classic bikes and it was hard work on some of the hills, so just be warned if you are considering classic bikes. The terrain was much different than we expected. We felt very accomplished by the end of our adventure.
- Elizabeth, 15/09/2025 10:02, Travelled in a Couple
Variety of bike routes and onboard food that reflected the culture of Croatia

We always knew what to expect. Our crew helped us w planning our outings and biking adventures. Lovely time
- Sharyn, 15/09/2025 07:06, Travelled in a Couple
We had an amazing time. The staff, excursions, service and food was 5 stars but I gave the survey 4 stars because of the condition of the boat. This boat needs maintenance and upgrades.
- Anonymous, 15/09/2025 06:54, Travelled in a Couple
Concept was great. Yoga daily swim stops and included excursions. Food was great Although Captains dinner could have been a little more special. Maybe include a glass of wine. Also daily it would be nice to know what the lunch was, perhaps even just posted somewhere.. But overall it was a great trip and I would do it again and would highly recommend
- Anne King, 15/09/2025 06:48, Travelled with Family
The staff were so helpful. The boat is fully kitted out with everything you might require. It was comfortable and relaxing.
- Renee, 15/09/2025 04:19, Travelled with Family
Value for money, excellent cruise staff and a great bunch of people on the cruise. The food was excellent. Cabins quiet, clean and comfortable. Vik our tour manager was THE BEST he provided us with so many options and opportunities. When the weather was not so great he worked really hard to find other activities to do. The captain changed our destination so we didn’t experience too many rough conditions. Honestly all the staff worked extremely to give us the most fantastic time. We are sad it is over.
- Emma, 15/09/2025 04:10, Travelled in a Couple
Our crew was incredible, Johnny went above and beyond to make the week amazing! He really made the biggest difference for how amazing our trip was. Nikola and Yosef were so fun and welcoming and the crew behind the scenes did such an amazing job at making sure everything was perfect. The food and drinks were amazing. The activities were so much fun, I loved every second of it!
- Phillipa (Pip), 14/09/2025 08:50, Travelled Solo
I had the best time on EOS! As soon as I stepped onto the boat I felt welcomed by Cal, and the crew were so accomodating the whole trip. I truly had the best time and would suggest this trip to everyone who is interested.
- Isabella , 14/09/2025 00:04, Travelled Solo
Loved the opportunity to explore the beautiful Croatian coast on Queen Jelena. Docking in the heart of a different place each day and being able to explore into the evening instead of rushing back to a ship that would be moving on before dinner set this apart from traditional cruises. Swimstops in quiet coves were another highlight of every day. We met some fabulous people, we spent the week with Canadians, Australians and Americans as well as others from England and Scotland. Meeting people from so many places and having the opportunity to socialise with them through the week, was another great strength of the trip. We’ll be keeping in touch! The food was good, the bar nearly always open and the crew helpful and worked hard to ensure we enjoyed every part of our holiday. We had an amazing tour guide with us throughout the trip, who did so much for us, including entertaining us. I would recommend Sail Croatia to anyone wanting something a little different and a memorable holiday.
- Paula, 12/09/2025 20:29, Travelled in a Couple
We had a wonderful time on Sail Croatia! Our tour guide, Johnny, was extremely helpful, friendly and knowledgeable! The crew was also amazing and always willing to help! We made so many friends and had so many fun experiences with the excursion options! 10/10 would recommend to a friend!

Had the best time ever! We were on the beautiful EOS for the week and just had the best time. The swim spots were my favourite. Lots to do activity wise. Cal was a legend best tour manager wouldn’t want to do a cruise with any other tour manager also the crew they were awesome. I was 20 weeks pregnant as well and they were all so accommodating.

Johnny truly made this trip awesome. Couldn’t have been better without the best tour guide Johnny! The crew were great as well.

Having celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with Sail Croatia was truly one of the most memorable and magical experiences of our life . From the moment we stepped on board, we were welcomed with warm hospitality , impeccable service and stunning views. The representative Dino along with the Captain Josip and the entire crew ( waiters/chef and sailors ) went above and beyond to make this experience even more pleasurable,. It was a perfect balance between relaxation and exploration. We returned home with unforgettable memories and a deep gratitude for the journey we shared both on sea and in life.
- Luisa & Joey, 10/09/2025 17:35, Travelled in a Couple
I really enjoyed the program…. Relaxing mornings , swim stops and lunch. It really made me wind down. Lovely Croatian islands to discover and evening meals on shore. Katarina is a well appointed ship. Extremely clean and comfortable and the staff were great. Very helpful and attentive without being too familiar. I loved it.
- Alyson , 10/09/2025 16:47, Travelled in a Couple
I had the most amazing time - our guide, Isabell, was so amazing and fun which made the experience awesome. I would recommend to anyone!
- Jas, 10/09/2025 14:50, Travelled Solo
Our Sail Croatia Rep, Klara, set the tone for the week with her excellent communication and offbeat humour. The Olimp was a beautiful ship, really luxurious and the crew were friendly and helpful. The food was perfect - not to heavy so we could enjoy the fabulous island restaurants and swimming off the back of the boat was so exciting. That left the Islands to spin their own magic on us - stunning scenery, great outings on bikes, buggy and jeep and discovering the history and local wines made for a superb holiday. Best of all we met like minded people from around the World we enjoyed spending time with. 5 stars all round.
- Fiona, 10/09/2025 14:35, Travelled in a Couple
Our tour guides were Ana and Marin. Our guides were awesome – they knew so much of the history of Croatia and shared it freely. The food on the boat was OK. The breakfast buffet was really good; lunch was hit and miss but mostly good. Some people found the lunches not quite enough food if you are a big eater. Drink prices on the boat were really reasonable. Would ask that you recommend the e-bike option for everyone as there was a lot of waiting for the manual bikes as some of the hills on the islands are no joke. A water bottle holder would be nice on the bikes. Would recommend the cycling jersey be included in the package. It would be great advertising for you. To charge $70 for a cycling jersey after you have spent over $2000 USD seemed excessive. Loved that our captain Martin was very safety conscious even if it meant we didn’t always get a swim stop as the seas were too rough. Our bike guide Marin also was very safety conscious which was great to ensure we completed
- Anita, 10/09/2025 14:00, Travelled Solo
Just returned from our fantastic cycle cruise with Sail Croatia with husband. It was glorious and just what I had envisioned: fun cycling with e-bikes through lovely scenery along the coast and on inland roads (only a few intrepid souls conquered the prolonged and steep hills and switchbacks on regular bikes); sunny and warm days; great food and beverages; comfortable accommodations on the boat; swimming in lovely clear or aquamarine water; and warm interactions with our fellow cyclists and amazing staff. I am particularly grateful to Sanja and Miranda for the care they showed us as my husband’s cycling experience was limited. Sanja’s daily storytime about history and culture, and Miranda’s care when my bike had a mechanical problem were truly appreciated. I also loved their attention to detail during our daily briefings. Finally, with Miranda leading and Sanja sweeping, it was liberating to be able to stop to take photos without holding the group up. Truly a fantastic vacation!

We had the most amazing sailing experience in Croatia thanks to our incredible crew! Captain Simona was outstanding – so professional, responsible, and always making sure we felt safe and comfortable. She explained every detail of our sailing adventure and made the whole journey both fun and educational. Our host Fani was equally amazing. Every single meal she prepared was absolutely delicious – truly a 10/10! She went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of, and her warm personality made the trip even more special. Together, Simona and Fani made this the best trip we’ve ever had. We plan to do this sailing adventure in the future and will definitely request them both for our next journey. Thank you so much for giving us memories we’ll never forget! Oswaldo, Elizabeth, Daniel and Tatiana

The staff were wonderful, friendly and professional and very eager to please. The boat was comfortable with sun, shade, and AC. the swim stops were beautiful. The countryside was wonderful. Our unplanned extra time in dubrovnik was handled well. The trip to Montenegro was way to long with the border crossings. The cruise leader was so knowledgeable and friendly. The food was delicious and varied. Our whole family aged 21 to 78. Loved every minute. I have told many people about it and have given them information.

The crew on the Mali Ante were absolutely exceptional. Everyone was so kind and helpful and the chef was amazing, making us the most delicious food. The tour guide Sasa was a delight, making jokes and helping everyone on the boat feel welcome and included while also giving us the information we needed about our destinations. I had an amazing time on my cruise and would definitely go again!
- Kendra, 09/09/2025 21:54, Travelled with Family
Andre and Ilona went above and beyond all expectations for quality of service , dedication and punctuality. Their passion was shared with everyone on the tour. They should be offered extended and improved contracts immediately................or you are not doing your job!

✨ Experience Croatia with Skipper Anja! ✨ We had the most unforgettable vacation island hopping along the stunning Dalmatian Coast! 🌊⛵ From hidden coves to breathtaking viewpoints, Anja made sure we experienced every must-see spot. One of the highlights? She arranged for us to visit a World Heritage Site completely by ourselves — an experience we’ll never forget! 🏛️💫 She even secured reservations for Stiniva, and being alone in such a magical, historic place felt like a dream come true. Anja also made sure we felt right at home on the boat and ensured we always had our privacy, creating the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. On top of that, she taught us the basics of sailing and made it so much fun to learn! 🚤🌞 This is just one of the many magical touches Anja added to make our trip truly unforgettable. We couldn’t recommend her enough! ❤️

The people, our host was exceptional. Staff very friendly. Ship was very comfortable and clean.. the swim stops a definite high light.. so much history to take in. The food was very good although I did hear some say they were looking for more of a variety.

The food was fabulous, the staff were hardworking and efficient. The ship was exceptional and facilities were 5*. Couple of small things that would make it better: -2 x cabin keys; -Hand soap and shower gel (information stated these were provided and to being shampoo & conditioner, but these were provided); -Coffee machine and tea facilities available at all times. We are very early risers and look forward to a morning coffee or tea. Had an amazing week, thank you and would happily sail with Sail Croatia again. Many thanks ⛴️😁

Visiting the small island coves and gorgeous harbors from the comfort of our boat was the experience of a lifetime. We loved the biking and the swimming.
