Highly recommend! We had a wonderful week. The boat and staff were excellent.

The staff was attentive, fun, and friendly. Our accomodations were comfortable, clean and well stocked. The schedule was just the right amount of relaxation and touring.

- Katharine, 29/07/2026 20:07, Travelled in a Couple

We (boyfriend and I) traveled on Salve Di Mare mid July from Dubrovnik to Split. We regularly take trips/vacations and this has by far been one of our favorite. Barbara was wonderful as was the rest of the crew, especially our bartenders. Mornings were very relaxed on the boat and lunch was incredible every day. Arrived at each destination around 1-2 PM which left plenty of time to explore in the afternoon. Would definitely recommend it if you are looking for a slower paced way to visit the coast of Croatia.

This was an amazing trip. The staff were so friendly and attentive to all our needs. The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Would highly recommend to friends and family!!!

Food, crew, boat and stops all amazing. Couldn’t have asked for anything more

- 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

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

- Christopher Burke, 28/07/2026 05:17, Travelled with Family

From the moment we arrived at the dock we were welcomed and our Vacation truly started. All bags were transported to our room. This was where we first met Hana, who took such good care of us throughout the trip. Hana introduced us to the Captain and Crew, and gave us all the information we needed to get the most our of our stay with Sail Croatia. From Hana's expert guidance throughout , to the Crew getting us situated for daily swim time and in and out of ports with ease and to the amazing drinks and meals prepared for us on the boat, we could not have been more pleased. Thank you all for all you do!

- Pamela, 27/07/2026 13:06, Travelled in a Couple

My family lived every minute aboard Salve di Mare. Barbara and the entire crew went out of their way to ensure our vacation was the best ever. The food, the cleanliness, the friendly atmosphere made for a dream come true.

- Tammy, 27/07/2026 08:16, Travelled with Family

We had a great week aboard Princeza Diana. The crew were attentive and our host Ana very knowledgeable. Some great excursion options. A small group of 15 which actually made the week as we all got to know each other so well and all clicked. Highly recommend. I would say though when asked if you have dietary restrictions, if you don’t like fish or tomatoes worth saying as they are very much apart of the meals. Overall meals were good.

- Sue, 27/07/2026 06:42, Travelled with Family

If you are considering a Sail Croatia trip, take the plunge and go! We absolutely loved our experience from start to finish. (We departed Dubrovnik on July 4 and ended in Split - Explorer.) The itinerary was the perfect combination of beautiful destinations, swimming, adventure, culture, food, and plenty of time to relax and enjoy the incredible Adriatic coastline. What really made the trip special, though, was the experience of traveling with a small group and the dedicated crew. Of our 31 travelers, 11 were international (Scottish, British, Spanish, Australian, South African), with the rest from the US - and all were awesome humans! With Josip as our guide, and the Salve Di Mare crew caring for us all week, we enjoyed every minute with all our new friends. And the ship is perfection! The trip was well organized, while still feeling relaxed and adventurous. We came home with memories we'll never forget and friends we hope to see again. Five stars without hesitation!

- Mary, 25/07/2026 23:44, Travelled with Family

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.

We had a wonderful time on the Contessa, Niko and the staff were wonderful. Decor was top level. The boat wasn’t full but we had a great group that had a great time together. We did ask to change rooms as it was very noisy when the boat was running.

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

We absolutely loved our time with Sail Croatia. This is the best way to see and experience the Dalmatian islands. The food was incredible, the room and boat very clean and nice, and the host was gracious and super informative and helped us take advantage of the right excursions and our time on each island. The swim stops are the best! You won't regret choosing Sail Croatia!

- Lauren, 21/07/2026 12:45, Travelled in a Couple

I can't say enough about Sail Croatia and this amazing seven day trip from Split to Dubrovnik. It was so well organized, and all of the stops were beautiful and perfectly curated. It was the perfect blend of fun and adventure, with a great group of people. Highlights were the swim stop every day and of course, all of the beautiful Dalmatian islands with the Port towns and activities. The ship (Salve di Mare) and the accommodations were also fabulous. The rooms were spacious and each had their own bathroom. The meals were wonderful. The crew was so friendly and helpful and Our tour guide , with Sail Croatia (Vin) took great care of us. I couldn't think of a better way to see the Dalmatian coast than doing it this way!!!

- Andrea, 21/07/2026 10:40, 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

My husband and I had a blast on the trip. It was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure! We were easily able to pick when we wanted to sightsee, participate in more adventurous activities, or have a chill beach day. The boat exceeded our expectations; our room was very comfortable and the food was delicious. The waters and scenery of Croatia were stunning; the swim stops were some of the best parts of our trip. I was worried about getting on a boat with a shellfish allergy, but the kitchen staff was easily able to accommodate my allergy, as well as others on our trip (gluten free, pescatarian, etc). Additionally, our guide Vic was awesome; he was a wealth of knowledge about everything from the history and culture Croatia to where the best place to watch the World Cup would be. He presented many fun options of what to do on every island. It really felt like we had a private guide (who knew everyone) at every stop. If we could book to go again, tomorrow we would!

- Madeleine, 21/07/2026 08:01, Travelled in a Couple

Was a wonderful holiday with family and the best way to see Croatia! The crew was amazing! Was also great to meet fellow guests the experience was better than anticipated!

Our week on the Almissa was amazing. Great food, staff, rooms, common spaces and other guests. The itinerary was excellent including a variety of activities and swim spots. A truly unique and special way to experience Croatia and we have no hesitation recommending the Almissa. The Sail Croatia communication was good in the lead up to the tour. A few things to note as feedback. Make the end of tour survey anonymous to get honest and useful feedback, carrying cash is a pain now for tourists - the fact everything on the boat and the extra tours and tips are to be paid in cash is inconvenient. Towels on the ship could be replaced - they are getting a bit old. Provide tea and coffee after lunch for free. This would be a small inexpensive thing to include - many international guests like their coffee and tea in the afternoon. 3 Euros for a cup of tea is way over the top. Finally the tipping recommendation appears out of step with what the cruise cost is. Small suggestions.

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

My husband and I and two good friends (another couple) spent a week on the Salve di Mare and it was magical. The beauty of the Dalmatian coast, the swimming off the boat, excellent food, and the excursions were perfect and unforgettable. The staff on the boat were also professional and so kind. They made everything go so smoothly and put everyone at ease. Sail Croatia was also fantastic—great communication and information armed us with clear expectations that somehow the Salve di Mare crew and beautiful Croatia vastly exceeded. Highly recommend!

- Anonymous, 20/07/2026 11:12, Travelled in a Couple

We absolutely loved this trip on the Almissa. Perfect mix of cruising, swim stops and visits to beautiful islands. Staff were great, food was delicious and we had a great group of people onboard with us. Fun side trip options if you want them. Plenty of sunloungers upstairs for everyone. Only give it 4 stars as cabins are fairly basic but you don’t spend much time in there anyway - they were perfectly fine with plenty of room to store things. So good being able to unpack for a week and enjoy the cruise.

- Cheryl, 20/07/2026 09:02, Travelled in a Couple

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

Everything was amazing from start to finish. The boat, the food, the crew, all the activities. A holiday to remember.

- Annelize, 18/07/2026 07:34, Travelled with Family

We had a fab week on Jelena with a great group of fellow guests.The crew were brilliant and Dino was super and did all he could to ensure we enjoyed our holiday. The food was excellent and Pam & team did a great job. Very difficult to find fault and would thoroughly recommend and hope to do another trip next year.

- Sue & Boris, 17/07/2026 07:36, Travelled with Family

Our Sail Croatia cruise was one of the best trips of my life! My husband, our adult kids, and I all agreed it was an unforgettable experience. The ship was beautiful, our cabin was spacious, and it was meticulously cleaned every day. The food was outstanding, and the entire crew was friendly, welcoming, and always eager to help. A special thank you to our tour manager, Dino. He was incredibly knowledgeable and gave excellent recommendations at every stop, helping us make the most of each destination. Although our itinerary changed slightly due to weather and docking conditions, it worked out perfectly. We visited Jelsa, which ended up being our favorite stop of the trip! The swim stops were absolutely spectacular, with crystal clear water and breathtaking scenery. If you're considering Sail Croatia, don't hesitate. It was an incredible experience, and we would do it again in a heartbeat!

- Lara Smith, 15/07/2026 22:29, Travelled with Family

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

I traveled with my partner on the Salve Di Mare Explorer cruise and we could not have asked for a better experience! Such an amazing way to see the Croatian coastline with a variety of excursions available. Our crew and tour manager were so accommodating and personable! The rooms were spacious, clean and modern. I could not recommend Sail Croatia enough!

- Brittany, 14/07/2026 21:24, Travelled in a Couple

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

We traveled with two families with older teens, nine total. We had the most incredible vacation. The locations were stunning, the crew and fellow passengers were fun and engaging, and the food was imaginative and delicious (but not too crazy for our picky eaters). The Salve di Mare was a beautiful boat and the rooms were spacious and exceptionally clean. Could not have asked for a better holiday!

- lisa, 14/07/2026 16:45, Travelled with Family

A fantastic voyage from start to finish! The ship was high quality, very clean and comfortable. The food was much better than expected and featured a good variety of dishes. The energy and helpfulness of the cruise director ensured everyone had a great time. I cannot say enough good things about the full experience. Highly recommend!

This trip was excellent! Very organised and a great way to relax. Hana, Captain Josip and the crew were amazing and super friendly

- Anonymous, 14/07/2026 05:45, Travelled in a Couple

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.

Sail Croatia exceeded our expectations. We were on the Salve Di Mare Explorer cruise with our young adult daughters and this trip will always be remembered. From our cruise manager Josip, to the attentive staff & crew & captain- everyone was a 10/10. We met like minded travelers from across the world & enjoyed each day at sea and land with awesome excursions. We are so grateful for the memories. Thank you all!

- Paola, 13/07/2026 12:15, Travelled with Family

This was one the best holiday I have ever been on. My fellow passengers, the crew and the boat will forever hold a special place in my heart. If you are reading this review - look no further - book it ! Scott 36 Kara 35

- Scott, 13/07/2026 10:12, Travelled in a Couple

From the start the crew were extremely welcoming and helpful. The boat was immaculate and stylish, the cabin was spacious and comfortable. We were not disturbed by noise from the boat or other people. Nothing was too much trouble. The itinerary worked really well, there was enough down time to relax, sunbathe and swim. The excursions added a fun dynamic to the trip and were mostly fun and exciting. We did cycling, kayaking, wine tasting, zip lining (the best!!) plus plenty of time to explore the beautiful Croatian towns which I hadn’t expected to be so charming. There was plenty of choice of restaurants and bars and our crew gave us recommendations on where to eat , even making reservations for us. The food on board was delicious, make sure you advise about dietary restrictions at the time if booking so that they can plan ahead for you. We were extremely lucky that the people on board were fantastic. We all bonded really well which made the experience very special…… a cruise family!!

- Jan, 13/07/2026 06:02, Travelled in a Couple

We sailed on the Contessa. The ship and crew were amazing. Our room was comfortable and more spacious than we had anticipated. The entire ship was spotless. The breakfast buffet always provided a nice variety of choices. The lunch menu changed each day and every meal was delicious. Tour manager Nickos gave us great information each day and worked hard to make sure all guests enjoyed each port. Bartenders Martin and Nino kept us well hydrated and were a lot of fun. We could not have asked for a better 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.

- Shawn, 10/07/2026 02:24, Travelled with Family

Great small boat experience with swimming stops, and small town adventures lead by a wonderful leader Klara. She was super helpful and guided us to lots of fun. Really liked eating out at restaurants almost every evening. Really liked the food onboard and especially appreciated getting Gluten Free food which I needed. The staff onboard was exceptional. Highly reccommend.

My husband and I chose sail croatia to celebrate our 20th wedding anniversary. We were welcomed warmly by Sanja our cruise director. From the minute we walked on board we felt like a family. The crew was so welcoming and the boat was beautiful. Sanja was most pleasant and attentive throughout the cruise. Vlad our chef for the week outdone himself. The food was outstanding. The bartenders were also so pleasant. Our group bonded like a family and spent multiple days and nights together. The pace of the cruise was perfect. The choice of islands and suggested activities were amazing. By the end of the week we were so sad to leave our sail Croatia family. I would highly recommend this cruise to anyone who wants to relax, is up for an adventure and wants to meet new friends. Also, request Sanja as your sail Croatia guide. Thanks, Sarah and Dan Link

- sarah, 07/07/2026 15:42, Travelled in a Couple

Our trip was fantastic. The boat and crew were lovely and super helpful. And our tour manager Josip was knowledgeable and accessible to us in person and via Whstsapp. It was the perfect balance of gorgeous swim stops and docking and experiencing multiple islands and all they had to offer. We never felt rushed and had time to explore what we wanted - both planned activities that we could partake in or helping us plan our own adventure. I would highly recommend this trip to people wanting a more intimate experience of the islands that a large cruise ship cannot provide.

- Kaisa, 07/07/2026 13:17, Travelled in a Couple

- kate, 07/07/2026 10:37, Travelled in a Couple

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.

You never know what to expect with 35 strangers but this mini 7 night cruise exceeded all expectations. We were warmly greeted and had ample time to mingle or do our our things. We were provided with numerous options for eating out and placed to visit at each stop. The on board food (breakfast and lunch) were plentiful and the swim stops along the way were so dreamy and refreshing during our hot week on board. The rooms were well spaced with ample storage for our 2 large and 2 small cases and the A/C kicked in well at night. Our main host Andro was exceptional and his command of the English language made everything seamless, closely followed by the diligent boat crew . We had so much fun, lots of drinks and laughs with guests and plenty of time to really unpack and unwind. I felt safe, my belongings were secure and we strongly recommend the Tempera to those looking for adventure, unique beauty but ample time to chill out.. There are a few deserving tips and taxes to factor in though.
