The stunning locations speak for themselves but were complimented beautifully by excellent customer service throughout!

If you can find fault with this holiday you have spent the week looking for it, and even then I doubt you will find it. Everything was perfect from breakfast to evening drinks before bed, each trip out was well organised to get the most out of the experience and with morning swims stops everyday each day just flowed perfectly. We had a small kitchen on board that did breakfast and lunch. Well they called it lunch, but each day was a set menu of three courses and the food that came out of that small kitchen was just amazing and all made fresh on board, very talented people in that kitchen first class. Would I recommend Sail Croatia for a holiday, yes without a doubt, Beautiful country, beautiful people, beautiful ship

We loved our time on board the Mali Ante. The crew and tour guides were very nice, helpful and fun to be around. The food was great. The excursions to the different islands were amazing. The islands are so beautiful. We loved everyone of them. The cycling was perfect for all of us - from beginner to advanced - we all handled it well. This is definitely the best of Croatia.

It far exceeded my expectations! Loved the unique itinerary of the cruise and personal attention given by all staff, especially Ivan & Pomella!! Captain’s Dinner was a night to remember!!!

Dino, our tour manager was lovely and very responsive to our questions and requests. He often responded within a minute and was already taking action on our request. He was very knowledgeable about each location and gave us a daily briefing. The ship was beautiful and the staff friendly. Due to rough seas the itinerary had to be changed and we did not visit Vis, but instead went to Omiš, which was a lovely town with stunning landscapes and some exciting excursion options! They handled the itinerary changes gracefully and seamlessly. I've deducted one star as there were a few quirks along the way that could have made the stay more pleasant: The ship has AC, but only when the AC is turned on as a whole, so for the first couple nights and the last night our room was a nearly unbearable 77-80°F at night, there were a couple days where housekeeping came into the room, but the room was only partially done, like 1 out of 3 beds done. All in all it was an enjoyable experience though!

Traveling with Sail Croatia was an experience that was more than " just a cruise" where you are one of hundreds or thousands on a massive ship. It wasn't perfect, but I look back on the friendships we made, the cozy feel of the ship and I'm left with special memories of our time on the Adriatic. When we arrived in Split and were faced with two massive cruise ships at port, I was so thankful for the choice we made. Dino, our cruise director, was a very relatable, friendly guy who responded quickly with our questions. The crew were all very nice! I rated it 4/5 mainly because of a few issues such as ventilation in the cabin that made it uncomfortable for a few days. Otherwise, it would be 5/5!
- Suzanne , 14/10/2025 12:34, Travelled with Family
It's a very nice boat and wonderful crew! The ports were all fabulous. We loved each island that we visited. The food was plentiful and well prepared. We had unseasonably cool weather, but we were still able to enjoy a swim stop or two. We could always find a spot to enjoy cruising. Our cruise manager, Vedron was warm and friendly. He had a great sense of humor and gave wonderful port talks. We especially enjoyed the bike tour in Mljet National Park and the Military tour on Hvar. I would have like another opportunity to do a bike tour on another island possibly.

Sail Croatia helped make the travel process seamless from start to finish. The communication before during and after made the decision to book simple, what to do during the cruise easy and decision to rebook in the future a definite. The staff was visible hardworking and always available to assist in any way need from pouring a drink, crossing a gap or information about local culture or traditions. The cruise director Dino was the best. He not only informative and professional but also fun and engaging. He arranged activities,,helped with bookings,, transport and was there for us to resolve an unexpected inconvenience with a flat tire on a bike excursion . Whike the weather was not perfect for our cruise. Dino and the Captain worked together to avoid the difficult uncontrollable weather and locate ports with better weather and new fun activities seamlessly. This was an unforgettable experience for my daughter and I. Thank you Sail Croatia

Number one, the staff was excellent! From the time we entered onto the ship to the time we got off they were always there when we needed them. If someone also had food issues, they were also accommodating to the persons needs. The director, Ivan, also personalized, and went above and beyond some of the things to help us and make our experience very memorable! The staff also in charge of swimming, cooking, serving, cleaning, bartending were all very friendly. Second, the ship was in great condition and kept clean. Third, the two tours that were included were great with Ivan. Fourth, the Captain’s dinner was great and the band was excellent! And, the people that were on the ship with us ended up to be the best and we all had so much fun together! A feeling of family! Ivan, the director was superb!! Captain Ivan was also superb!

The trip was very well organized. We were updated daily on how the day would go and than also sent all the info on Whatsapp. Everything was above and beyond my expectations even though we had to change plans a few times. Our bike guide Marin was amazing. He is so very knowledgeable and made us feel very safe riding in some dangerous locations. It felt like We all respected him right from the moment we heard him speak. Ilona was the back guide and she is a sweet, caring girl who was always so helpful and supportive. She was always making sure everyone was doing ok and she was great to hang with the group and get to know everyone. This was a trip i won’t forget and i will definitely be recommending to friends.
- Beverley, 08/10/2025 19:24, Travelled with Family
We had an excellent time on our 7 day Dubrovnik to Split bike tour. J and Anna, our bike guides, were kind, friendly, and helpful. Safety was always a priority on our rides. We had a few spicy weather days and J made accommodations to ensure both fun and safety. The servers on board were always cheerful and ready to please! Overall, our group of 4, had a great time and would recommend this tour.
- Shari, 07/10/2025 12:02, Travelled with Family
We had a lovely time with Sail Croatia. The level of service was excellent! Food was well prepared each day. Our host Vicko was amazing...full of knowledge, humor, great recommendations and favor in each stop along the way. Made us dinner and excursion reservations in each of our stops. The captatin and crew were so accomodating; they were pleased to honor all our questions and requests. Highly reccommend!!!!
- Danielle, 07/10/2025 10:07, Travelled with Family
Great size yacht with 38 passengers! We thoroughly enjoyed the swim stops followed by exploring the various ports. Anita was our lovely cruise director who was always smiling and checking in on her passengers to see how they were enjoying the cruise. The food was delicious too! Great time shared w many new friends!
- Barbara, 07/10/2025 10:01, Travelled with Family
This was a wonderful balance of exercise, educational experiences and relaxation. The guides were wonderful with providing an experience that was enjoyed by all and were able to adapt to the changing weather conditions and keep us informed. Our 14 year old enjoyed the trip too. The ride was harder than what we expected, but we enjoyed the challenge of the hills and there was an option to upgrade to the E-bike.
- Kim, 06/10/2025 11:31, Travelled with Family
From start to finish this was a once in a lifetime holiday. The boat Queen Jelena was so beautiful. The crew were polite and helpful and friendly. The food was delicious, the daily routine suited me perfectly . Our Tour Manager Vicko took such good care of us and brought Croatia and its history to life with his informative daily talks on the culture and history of each island we sailed to. He is a great ambassador for Sail Croatia and the country of Croatia. I cannot recommend this cruise enough.it really was perfect.

I have just completed a dream holiday cruising the Dalmatian coast. The crew were very helpful and friendly, especially the amazing Mario! Our chef and sous chef were the best in the Adriatic - thanks for all the extra kilos Ivica and Antonio. Our hiking guides, Lola and Natasa, were efficient, caring and full of information. I was the red faced, sweat drenched hiker at the very back so I was especially grateful for Natasha’s support and patience! I will recommend this trip to everyone.
- Mary, 29/09/2025 19:05, Travelled with Family
Provide daily written out itinerary for people to actually read what times and where things were going on. Have an intercom (overhead speaker) so people can be alerted of pertinent info for all passengers. Verbal daily communication from guide was poor on daily activities. Cycle times need to be longer with less “coffee” breaks (30 min ride, 45 min stop) Our guide, was rude. Our other guide, Mario, was great. Overall, first impression of accommodations found that a bed overhead light was broken with wires exposed, safe didn’t work, tight quarters and air conditioning was poor, Reported broken light immediately and it was repaired.. Safe reported not working, told how to use by crew, but those instructions didn’t work….finally found written safe instructions on top shelf (which we couldn’t see beforehand) and was able to get the safe working on our own.. Food was ok. Bikes were outstanding quality….so good, I’m considering purchasing that brand. Swim stops were great.
- Charlene, 29/09/2025 12:51, Travelled with Family
Hi Charlene, Thank you for your detailed feedback and for highlighting the many positives – we’re pleased to know you enjoyed the swim stops, food, guidance from Mario, and the quality of the bikes, which we’re glad to hear impressed you enough to consider purchasing for yourself. We also appreciate your suggestions regarding a written itinerary, intercom, and cycle breaks, which have been passed on to our Operations Team. We are disheartened to read your comments about one of the Guides, as he has consistently received high praise throughout the season. We’re glad the issues with the light and safe were addressed during your stay, and we will share your note about clearer instructions with our team. Your comments are valuable as we continue striving to enhance our guests’ experience.

This is a must do trip,a great way to combine abit of exercise and to explore Croatia. The two guides Marin and Josip were excellent very knowledgeable and nothing was a problem. Everyday they explained the plan for the next day so you always knew what was happening. They also gave recommendations for restaurants and sightseeing at the port stops. So stop thinking about it and book as sometimes life and circumstances can change. Thanks for a great week.
- Christine , 26/09/2025 16:32, Travelled with Family
Great staff. Bike routes well laid out and planned with interesting stops for swimming and cafes to get a delicious cup of coffee. Bikes were well maintained and very easy to ride. Any problems that did arise were handled quickly. Breakfast was great with a nice variety of food to choose from. Coffee not so good, needs improvement. Could purchase cappuccino on board which was good. Lunch definitely needs improvement. Most times it was cold. Soup was watery. Desserts were delicious. No on board safety protocols. We didn’t realize until third day into trip that life vests were under our bed. I would definitely recommend this trip.

- Dave, 24/09/2025 13:48, Travelled with Family
Our guides, Marin and Josip, were outstanding! They provided detailed information about each day's cycling route and the history about each island we visited. They were always available to answer any questions/address any concerns. Both guys were so passionate about their job, and they had such a great sense of humor. In addition, the rest of the crew was fabulous, also. We mainly interacted with Bruno, the bartender, dining room host, and server. He also did an outstanding job taking care of all of us. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for an active vacation!

The guides were first-rate. Marin, the cruise director, was conscientious, helpful, and friendly. We always knew what was happening and when. Josip, the cycling guide, kept us safe and made sure we enjoyed the rides. Our group included avid cyclists and people who had biked only rarely. We all had a great experience. The entire crew of the Columbo was efficient, friendly, and hardworking.
- Brian, 24/09/2025 05:32, Travelled with Family
Loved the experience - beautiful scenery and weather - a great way to see many little towns in various islands, the right amount of biking and relaxing time and our guides Marin and Josip were friendly, patient, helpful and knowledgeable.

My family and I, all adults, enjoyed a fabulous time aboard the Mali Ante just recently during the week of September 13 - 20th, 2025. The captain and his crew took exceptional care of us throughout the week. Ivica and Sasa were our terrific personable and gracious cycling and social convenors. The chef made delicious meals and offered non-meat food options for me, Mario provided excellent service in the dining room and salon. I can't thank them all enough for providing an incredible sailing and cycling adventure for us all! I hope to return for another trip with Sail Croatia and would love to see this crew again! Sandra B

The base staff were always available and involved. We never felt isolated The weather and the seas were just glorious, and the yacht did everything we asked of it. The only issue is the scramble for moorings in places like Vis in the early afternoon.
- Gerry, 23/09/2025 16:24, Travelled with Family
Our family had the most incredible time sailing with Sail Croatia, and we couldn’t have asked for a better captain than Marco. From the moment we stepped aboard the catamaran, he made us feel welcome, safe, and completely at ease. His knowledge of the islands, hidden bays, and local culture turned every day into a new adventure. The boat itself was comfortable, spacious, and perfect for relaxing as a family while taking in the stunning views. Marco’s warm personality and professionalism made the trip unforgettable. It was truly the highlight of our holiday, and we can’t wait to return!
- Lauren and Marty, 23/09/2025 06:38, Travelled with Family
The boat was great as were the staff who worked very hard. Islands were super, only disappointment was we wanted to go river rafting in Makarska but they said that wasn’t an option even though it was advertised in the islands itinerary.

Miranda and Sanya at SC paced the week perfectly balancing between bike time, boat time and town time. They were more like coaches than guides for an old guy (no e bike for me). Highly recommend them.

My sisters and I loved our trip on Sail Croatia. The itinerary was one of the prettiest I have ever experienced in my travel. We were able to anchor up in areas that a bigger ship would never be able to negotiate. The day flowed perfectly with a swim stop in the morning and time to explore the next island in the afternoon. Anita was our tour director who was excellent and made travel seamless.
