This was my first time with Sail Croatia! Definitely have fun memories for life from this week sailing! the people from this group ended up being like a little family especially the girls from my group the girlhood was so special! Every day was a new swim spot in beautiful waters and the ports were so cool exploring when docked, the food on board was quite delicious and the portions weren’t limited. Ola the tour guide of our party boat did a great job in keeping the group updated with recommendations, activities available and each days itinerary!! :) Each night was spent partying in a new spot and was very fun! There were a few birthdays on my week and the crew, captain and people on board were all amazing at making their birthdays feel special and celebrated with cake and birthday drinks and all! As a young person you have lots of fun connecting and partying with people around your age, I recommend! The only downside was the amount of mold spotted in the cabins and aircon vents.

We had a great time on the Mlini. The crew was outstanding particularly the food which was much better than expected. Toma was our guide and was a great guide and friend to everyone. They worked hard to make it a great week. They deserve a raise Few areas to improve on: inform passengers if they boat isn’t full. It’s quite disappointing when you arrive to find the boat is half full leaving much to be desired from the social aspect. Also, recommend decreasing the number of excursions and increasing the quality.

Thank you for your 4 star review and for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had a great time, enjoyed travelling with your group and had such a positive experience with the crew onboard. We also appreciate your comments regarding the condition of some aspects of the ship, including the linen and bathrooms. Feedback such as this is important to us and has been shared with the relevant team to help identify areas where improvements can be made. Thank you again for travelling with us, and we’re pleased that overall you had an enjoyable experience!
It was awesome we had a lot of fun, swim spots were awesome, the towns/cities were great. The crew were really easy to get along with and served quality tasting food. Only bad thing was the condition of the boat, it was clean don’t get me wrong, but the rooms were twice as hot as it was outside, (yes it was advertised there was no A/C) so there was no way to cool down and most people ending up sleeping outside on the deck during the night not using their rooms. And the shower amenities were pretty rough. We paid extra for an upper deck room thinking it would be cooler and less noisy, but it was the complete opposite, rooms downstairs were cooler and less noisy. I think if we had photos of the amenities and knew the condition of the rooms on the exact boat we were on, we wouldn’t have paid as much or gone at all. But don’t let that distract you from what made it worth while, all the people we met on the boat from guest to crew was definitely one of the highlights of the trip.

Thank you for your 4-star review! We’re so pleased to hear you had an awesome time overall and enjoyed the swim stops, destinations, food, and especially the crew and fellow travellers onboard. We appreciate your feedback regarding the ship facilities. You booked our Standard ship category, which is our most affordable option for budget-conscious travellers and features bunk-bed cabins, shared bathroom facilities and no air-conditioning. Images and specifications for each of our ship categories are available on our website to help highlight the differences between them, allowing guests to make an informed decision before booking with us. We also note in our FAQs under “What is the difference between Above and Lower Deck cabins?” that Lower Deck cabins can often be cooler and quieter than Above Deck cabins. We completely understand that everyone has different comfort preferences, and based on your feedback, we’d recommend considering one of our higher ship categories, such as Ensuite or Premier, for any future trip with us. Thanks again for travelling with us, and it’s great to hear that the people you met and experiences along the way made the trip so worthwhile!
Holiday overall was great. Only comments would be to possibly offer other options than just clubs every single night. Everyone understood we were doing a drinking cruise, however seven nights of clubs in a row is a lot! I would’ve loved to have clean linens or at least clean towels offered to us, given that being below deck nothing dried and became very gross mildewy smelling. Lastly, if they would just include what they were feeding us each day, I think that would be helpful. I didn’t have many problems with the food, however being hungover sea sick and then handed mystery food made it a little harder to trust. Just announcing what the meal is would’ve made it a lot better! Otherwise great trip, lots of fun. Just wish swim spots were longer!

My holiday was a memorable experience with my best friend, we had many laughs with new friends and crew members. Marin was amazing, very friendly, professional and on-time, he made sure the day ran very smoothly. I would highly recommend sail Croatia navigator cruise if you are a young individual wanting party and make new friends.

Sail Croatia was such an unreal experience. We had the most fun week and met so many new friends. The staff on our boat the Mlini were so helpful and accomodating, and our host nour was the best. She made the week so fun and smooth and not stressful for us at all. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a fun time and people who enjoy partying!

My experience on Tuna boat was mainly attributable to Toni, our rep. Toni was highly informative about the history and activities of each destination. His organisation of group dinners really helped for us to bond and make friends. Not only was he a rep, but he was also a great friend to all of us. I give all my praise to Toni!

I did really enjoy my holiday however I and the rest of my boat were a bit confused why we, as a party boat, would dock and stay in towns with either no clubs or where noise/time restrictions impacted our time and experience greatly. Our crew on big blue were always so fun and gracious. The rep, Diego, put lots of effort to get our group bonding by organising family dinners and always showed up for us, whether that was searching the town for place with working gelato, taking people to multiple pharmacy trips as well as the hospitals.

Had so much fun with a great bunch of people. Captain + crew were awesome. The facilities on the premium navigator cruise are actually really decent and surprisingly spacious. Worth the extra money, especially for AC. Side note; you will end up paying as much as the initial cost so be aware. However many of the daily activities are worth. Shout out Lauren for being an awesome rep.

We had the most amazing time on sail Croatia! Our trip manager was lovely! My only comments would be that on the trip itself there was a lot of hidden costs (bus rides paid in cash, taxes, tips, etc) so we spend significantly more than planned.

Bloody brilliant!!!!!! Nikola was the most amazing rep we could have asked for! So kind, caring and knowledgeable. Very thorough and organised, always going above and beyond to make us feel safe and looked after. He gave us lots of recommendations and suggestions which made our trip even better! An amazing tour guide, friend and host! Shoutout to Darren & Nathan for the amazing meals and banter! My friends and I will miss the sail Croatia team dearly.

Overall my holiday was incredible. The itinerary of the trip was well thought out and the places we visited absolutely beautiful. Our guide Josip was so friendly, inviting and informative. He went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience on board as well as in every town we visited. I really appreciated how he involved himself in the group and was a central part to everyone getting to know each other so well. The crew of our ship TVRDI were also a highlight, they were friendly, helpful and hard working and we all left feeling so grateful to have got to know them. My only negative experience on sail was the pricing of drinks, activities and recommended restaurants. As young people this experience is already expensive and while I believe the sail itself is well worth it there could be adjustments made to make it more affordable. I would’ve loved to have free or decently priced walking tours included in each place to learn more about the history, culture, and stories.

The guide and crew were great. Was cool to see so many lovely spots in Croatia. The excursions were fun! Food was great! Icebreakers/group games would have been good to make it less awkward and easier for those that are more introverted. Would have been good to have water available at all times.

Our boat manager from sail Croatia, Toni, was exceptionally helpful. Not only did he provide us with excellent recommendations for the various places we were visiting in Croatia, but when I was sick and needed help, he was happy to assist me, which I am very grateful for.

Had an amazing experience on the Big Blue, Francesca was our host and a fantastic one at that! Had a good mix of solo travelers and some groups of friends but in the end we all became a big family. The staff and crew were outstanding and really made the atmosphere inviting, they knew who we were by first name after day 3. Food was incredible and the boat was kept super clean. Couldnt reccomend it more!

We had an amazing experience overall and truly enjoyed every moment of the trip! One of the standout highlights was our guide, Nour. She was absolutely fantastic—extremely well-organised, kind, professional, and always went the extra mile to make sure everyone felt comfortable and informed. Her knowledge and calm, friendly presence really made a difference, and we felt very well taken care of throughout. The excursions were varied and really well thought out, offering a great mix of activities to suit everyone. The rooms were also excellent—clean, comfortable, and a lovely place to unwind at the end of the day. If we had to mention anything for improvement, it would be the price of the drinks on board, which felt a bit high, and we would have loved more opportunities for swim stops, as those moments in the water were some of the most enjoyable. That said, it was a fantastic trip overall and Nour’s guidance truly elevated the whole experience. Thank you for the wonderful memories!

Great way to see the country! Experience different towns and landscapes with others from around the world. Your guide helps in bringing you to unique spots that you would otherwise not know to check out. One of the best trips my partner and I have ever been on!

The staff! The staff were lovely and catered to our needs. I went with a couple of friends and we had Lovre and he was great and fully engaged with all of the sail group, couldn’t have asked for better staff. Food was delicious. The showers were less great but overall great trip.

I was on the Afrodita ship with Nora as our guide and thoroughly enjoyed my experience. Food was great, good service and was with a good group of people. Only thing was wish we had more time to swim than what we got. The triple room below deck was very small for 3 people so would recommend going top deck or splitting groups.

Hi there, thank you for your review — we’re pleased to hear you enjoyed your week on Afrodita and that your Rep Nora, along with the food and service contirbuted to this. We appreciate your feedback about the triple cabins, and due to the space shared, we do offer a 10% Triple Cabin Discount to help offset this. We hope it helped make things a bit more comfortable. Thanks again for choosing to travel with us, and we’d love to welcome you aboard again in the future!
We loved our experience on Afrodita! Best week, Nora, our guide was great and super helpful with any of our needs or concerns. Only downfall was the triple rooms on the lower deck really dont fit 3 people comfortably!

Sail Croatia was a fantastic way to see the country at an affordable price. Firstly, I got extremely lucky with my guide, Noura. You can tell how well-versed, experienced, and caring she was in every way. I do not think my review would be the same if I had anyone else. The crew on my ship greatly improved the experience as well, the bartender Mateo was extremely fun and flexible, the chef was super talented and accommodating, and the sailor/captain were very friendly and felt like a part of the group. Overall, I’d come again but I would never choose a triplet. Realistically, it is not a triplet room and should not be advertised as such. The downstairs rooms were more spacious as doubles, literally. Claiming the lower bed is viable for two people isn’t ok, and especially frustrating since we had a smaller group and empty beds that could’ve been offered. Also, the party bus should be chartered. Everyone agreed it was a money grab that the company definitely could afford.

Hi there, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with Sail Croatia! We’re delighted to hear you had a fantastic time exploring the coastline and that Noura, Mateo and the rest of your crew helped make your trip so memorable. We'll be sure to pass on your kind words to them. We're sorry to hear that the Triple room didn't meet your expectations. To help set expectations clearly, our website advises: “On some ships, we also have triple cabins available for guests that are travelling as a group of three and would like to share a cabin. Triple cabins consist of a double bed and a single bunk, and we provide a 10% discount per person for these cabin types. In some Triple cabins, double beds may be slightly smaller to accommodate the additional single bed, meaning these cabins may not be suitable for travellers that require more space. If you would like to book a triple cabin please let us know and we can check availability when you enquire.” All extra costs are indicated in the itineraries on our website, to help customers have an idea of what to expect for their cruise. We hope to welcome you in the future!
My partner and I had a great week on Sail Croatia thanks to Lauren, Mateo and the other crew members. The weather was average but Lauren went above and beyond to maintain morale and organise alternative activities. The crew were very easy-going and friendly and we enjoyed learning about Croatia from them. Our only suggestion is to Sail Croatia directly - we think the itinerary could be improved. The Sail Croatia website states the white water rafting is available on the Split to Dubrovnik tour (which was not the case). We also would have appreciated more time exploring the towns as opposed to spending hours at swim spots.

This trip was seriously one of the best experiences ever! We had an amazing crew, a great group of people and we visited some of the most beautiful places! Our ship was so much nicer and more spacious than we expected, the beds were comfortable and the air conditioning was amazing on those hot days! The swim stops were so beautiful and refreshing and exploring the islands and towns made for a perfect balance of a relaxing and activity filled trip! Dino and the rest of our crew were amazing, they worked so hard to make sure we had the best experience and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. Dino was fantastic, he was so friendly and welcoming and it felt as though he genuinely cared about us, taking our concerns seriously and taking care of any issues that came up.

There’s wasn’t as many activities as I though there would be. The food wasn’t great and there was no food to snack on aka chips. I feel like since the towels weren’t drying they probably needed to be changed more often. My towel was wet all the time when showering. Sanja was great, crew were all fabulous. Sanja was well informative on each island and was very honest in which activity was better to do which was great.

I definately think our guide Toni made us having the best time ever, he was really good at making the group become one and making sure that we were all having a great time. I find it admiring to see how quick we was at always answering our texts and questions whether it was late at night or during the day and he always made sure everone was safe and good especially during the party nights. He was a real and honest guide who made sure that our money was spent right and we didn't waste anything, giving us good recommendations of what to do see and eat and what not to do. I wanna thank him and sail croatia for a fantastic week!!

Only feedback would be the variety of drinks at the bar were not as advertised on the website and didn’t have the variety to suit some people we were with.

Sail Croatia was good. To make it better I would suggest more effort is put into the socialising of everyone on board e.g group drinking games, getting to know people etc. guided by the host. Also more time at each destination would be good! Not sooo long at swimming spots. Our host Clara did a good job for her first ever Sail!

Boat was a bit ordinary and not what’s in the photos and videos. Food was okay. Advertised that dinner isn’t included so assumed find something ourselves however it was organised every night which felt like we had strict time lines and did not have much freedom to explore. The dinners organised were overpriced and average. I don’t want to be eating Japanese on my first night in Croatia. I want traditional food and seafood!!! The night clubs we were taken too were small and pretty average and some overpriced!! 11€ for one drink is stupid. I also was charged wrong prices for my drinks on board, I ended up having to pay 30€ extra for drinks when I was just charged wrong. Ceili was amazing though! Best rep we could’ve asked for and she made the week so special! Have made friends for life

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us, and we hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable experience in the future.
We were on the "Big Blue" ship, and to start with the only negative, the ship was smaller then we anticipated. The Navigator Cruise has 2 or 3 ships you can be put on depending on the price you pay. I would describe the accommodation has a hostel on a boat. However, this did not stop us all from having the best week, I would actually say it helped! Everyone was always together having chats, listening to music on the top deck, jumping from the top deck and making a memorable week for us. Lastly the crew and tour rep were all incredible!!! Highly Recommended 🥳

Had a great week on Sail on the boat Afrodita! Great way to see beautiful parts of Croatia and meet people from all walks of life. The crew and tour manager were all excellent. The bar tab method could be improved significantly and at least one room clean should be provided during this period. Would definitely recommend but some room for improvement.

Sail Croatia was one of the best weeks of my life. We had an amazing group that was all super welcoming and ready for anything. Barb was an exceptional guide that was always smiling and willing to have a laugh with us. The crew on board worked so hard and did not stop cleaning up after us and making sure our drinks were full. Only down side is I didn’t realise how expensive the week would be. Bar tabs, excursions and tips and the end. The week itself is already not cheap and then there was a whole lot of cots that really added up. However, that is just small part. You can make money back but the experience was well worth every penny!

We were travelling with 7 friends on a boat of 30. The crew and staff were wonderful and the itinerary was amazing. If you plan on spending a relaxing 7 days this Sail isn’t for you, it’s a more of a 7 day bender with no let up. Our fellow sail mates were great fun and people on other boats also made the trip one to remember. However, the rooms and bathrooms were tiny, the free breakfast is irrelevant as no one is ever awake for it and the lunches were what I would describe as a 3rd world counties school camp. I would definitely recommend trying a KJU while you’re in Croatia!

Loved the boat and swim stops. Due to weather conditions we had a few schedule changes which should have been made up for! But overall was a bucket list trip I’ll never forget!

Our boat waiter, Marijan Skocibusic was an absolute legend! He kept the vibes up for the boat the entire week and it wouldn't have been the week it was without him. Sail's number one employee, THANK YOU MARIJAN!

Not only did we have the most amazing group of people who are now lifelong friends we had the most amazing crew on board. Ante our captain made us all feel very safe and comfortable. Gloria was a darling and always made sure we were fed and happy. Faruk was very knowledgeable and recommended some great activities for all of us within our budgets. Marin and Kula were so lovely and kind and always did Thier best to accommodate our needs. Boshco is an amazing chef and I have been missing his cooking since i left the boat. Will be bringing my friends who missed out back again next year and we will hopefully be onboard Vosicia again. Thank you all for such an amazing week. Xxxx

The people! We weren’t so lucky with the weather with a few rainy days, but the company made up for it. Everyone on our ship were so inviting and fun to hang out with, have definitely made some friends for life. The crew were also amazing! Romeo in particular deserves a raise!! He made this trip the best it could be!

Great if you want to party all week. Not ideal for a good night sleep. Toma our leader was great. Knew alot about the areas and organised everything well .

We really enjoyed our time on board Kapetan Jure with sail rep Beatrix and the awesome crew! Although weather didn’t permit us to see everywhere we still had a great time exploring Croatia ! Special thanks to deck hand Mikola for fixing my suitcase and saving the day- really went above and beyond !
- Alex, 19/06/2023 10:46, Travelled with Friend/s
Had an awesome time, our boat crew and tour rep were incredible! They took really good care of us and helped us navigate the terrible weather we had for the first 4 days of Sail. Would honestly do it again it was so much fun, the group we had was amazing. I just wouldn't do it in May so the weather would be better. We could only do 3 out of 12 of our optional activities because of weather and a lot of bars/clubs were closed still. Our crew definately made sure to look out for us though and make sure our time was still fun #ClubCorridor

The whole trip was fantastic but I would like to really highlight Aoife. She was the best person we could have had to be in charge of our boat. She was always involved and gave the best tips about all of the places we stopped. Could not recommend her enough!!!

Hi there, thank you for your review of your Navigator cruise with us this season on board Marija Magdalena. It's great to see you had a fantastic trip with us exploring Croatia and thank you so much for your kind words on Aoife, we will be sure to pass your comments onto the Team! Thank you so much.
The sail itself was amazing, not only were the crew and our host Mia so welcoming and attentive, there was plenty to see! The food on board pleasantly surprised me and we had a swim stop each day. The extra activities are loads of fun however some of them do overlap so you have to choose which one you prefer. If you are looking for more of a party boat definitely book in the peak season as I booked late august and we had a few chillers but that didn’t stop us from having a ball. Overall a great week, thanks again!
- Tayla, 05/09/2022 07:30, Travelled with Friend/s
Sail Croatia was really good, great weather and a lot of place to visit. For a big group like I was travelling with I would of rather the rep introduced us all to each other. By not doing this we didn’t really get to know each other until the last night. Where as this should of been the first night, I didn’t know half the peoples names until later on in the trip. Crew was so nice, captain was great got to know a lot about the sail and how it all works. However apart from that it was good!
- Tilly, 31/08/2022 12:30, Travelled with Friend/s
Such a fun way to travel, waking up on the ocean each morning was amazing! Choosing the premiere boat was completely worth it for it’s ensuite and AC.
- Priyanka, 30/08/2022 12:39, Travelled with Friend/s
We had an amazing trip ! The boat was super clean. The crew ensured that the boat was always spotless. The crew was also very friendly and welcoming. Our guide mila was amazing. She was knowledgeable and went out of her way to give us tours of every place we stopped at. She was kind, funny, and made our trip the best it could be. She was organized without making us feel like we were at school. She brought the group closer. The food on the boat was cooked very well. Everyone enjoyed the food so much. I wrote on my application that I was vegan however on arrival it was not known. It would be better if there was better vegan options for me instead of the regular menu without meat. Some days all I could eat was cucumber and tomato. Also the chef used a lot of oil on my food. The food was cooked well but a load of oil was added all over it at the end. I am not used to this and it was hard to eat. Overall a great trip thanks to mila and the mali ante crew :)
- Laura , 29/08/2022 09:21, Travelled in a Couple
Was a good mix of people on our boat and had a great time. Food was good and plenty of it. The only downfall would be all the extra costs that I incurred. Was very expensive to eat and drink off board and the extra costs onboard you don’t hear about (unless your into reading the fine print). You have to pay for AC, port taxes, etc. would recommend to a friend but letting them know you will need to be prepared to spend.
- Alex, 29/08/2022 07:17, Travelled with Friend/s
Dino our sail leader and all the crew were incredible, Dino was full of great island recommendations for all excursions, swim spots, bars etc so knowledgeable and was apart of the family on our sail! Cared for everyone and ensured the entire fam on the boat was having the best experience ! The crew took care of everything the fam needed and even organised us a bbq meal which everyone craved! Great week and highly recommend!!
- Rebecca, 26/08/2022 17:55, Travelled with Friend/s
The best part of my sail was my trip manager Klara and the rest of the staff as they really went out of their way to ensure a great experience for all. I celebrate my birthday on the boat and they where kind enough to provide a cake and create a lovely atmosphere!
- Danielle , 23/08/2022 17:54, Travelled with Friend/s
Mila was an amazing representative. She explained everything in thorough detail, from what the day would look like, up to all the history of each and every city. She is very well educated on these topics which I enjoyed immensely and made the trip so much better.
- Josh, 12/08/2022 04:07, Travelled with Friend/s
Klara was the absolute best guide, made awesome recommendations and arranged numerous bookings for dinners and outings. She also booked a doctor appointment for myself and another member of the cruise. Would 100% recommend her on any future sails.
- Jacqueline, 07/08/2022 05:03, Travelled with Friend/s
From the moment we stepped on the Salve Di Mare it's fair to say we were very excited on what was to come. The boat was beautiful, clean and the rooms were air-conditioned and classy. Staff were incredibly friendly, led by our guide Julie who was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire trip (not to mention great fun)! Food was incredible on the boat, a highlight being dessert for lunch! We had such a good crew with us and everyone was there to soak up the beautiful sun, swim in the crystal clear waters and have a good time. Small feedback would be that the pricier upper deck rooms were smaller than the cheaper rooms below. Needed a bit more time on the islands especially when we didn't go out to party the night before. However, from the moment we took off, we knew we had made the right choice sailing with Sail Croatia. If you have any hesitation, just book with the Salve Di Mare you will not regret it.
- Stefan, 22/07/2022 10:06, Travelled in a Couple
Klara was such an incredible guide, always willing to help, show us the best places and always had a smile on her face. She was super welcoming and made the trip great. The crew were also awesome! I wish the boat had aircon in all rooms as my friends didn’t sleep in the heat, it would also be great to have access to water at all times (not lock to water tank away at night!) Over all, an awesome week!
- Tahlia, 04/07/2022 15:53, Travelled with Friend/s
Organized itinerary, helpful host, easy going vacation that we didn’t have to worry about any planning!
- Keira, 03/07/2022 18:00, Travelled in a Couple
Well organised. Happy with the price. Made seeing Croatia very easy. Tour guide Dino was great. He was friendly, engaging, helpful, shared his knowledge and would explain were to spend money or where you would be ripped off. The breakfast and lunch is a great thing to have on the boat, loved having this, however the food was average. Had risotto 1 day for lunch and it was inedible, the rice was not cooked it was crunchy. The soups on the boat were nice. Alcohol on the body is expensive, 40 Kuna for an apple cider when you can get the same thing at a convenience store for 12 Kuna.
- E, 24/06/2022 13:00, Travelled with Friend/s
My friend & I were on the Marija Magdalena boat Split rtn Splt tour The whole experience was great, the crew absolutely fantastic, so chill, easy going & fun. And the food was great. Destinations were absolutely stunning. It really is one of the most beautiful countries. Our tour guide was Ioana, genuinely such a lovely person & exceptional at her job. Gave us detailed activities every day via the WhatsApp group with all the info needed.. I was lucky enough to spend my Bday on the boat which all the crew made really special with cake, ballons, banners & drinks. The ship itself had great facilities such as lounge chairs, outdoor eating areas ect The only negative thing I have to say is- 2 of our friends canceled on the day of the tour, we asked if one of us could take the spare room. It came back from the office that this was not possible which was dissapointing. During a pandemic i don't see why this should have been an issue. Experience would've been 5* if they allowed this.
- Kelly , 28/09/2021 10:22, Travelled with Friend/s
The Sail Croatia was a great experience and a good way to travel around many of the Croatian islands and cities, however it was disappointing that given our tour commenced after Oct 1, many activities were closed. Some warning about this would be good to ensure expectations are met. Apart from this, the tour was fun, our leader did her best to give us brief historical overviews of Croatia as well as the various towns we visited and it was overall a positive experience.
- Sarah, 14/10/2019 02:34, Travelled with Friend/s
Hi Sarah, thanks for the review - we really appreciate it! We believe that the best way to truly enjoy the Dalmatian coast is by ship. In October the season is starting to wind down which means that not all bars and restaurants are open in each location, but October also brings some great benefits such as less crowds in tourist destinations and lower cruise prices! We would really love to have you on board again in the future. Thank you again Sarah for your review.
Mumma T was so nice, energetic and welcoming! She was very good as she knew a lot about Croatia and had great recommendations and also shared interesting facts and information of the history of places we visited. The rest of the crew was also very good and kind to us all. The food was great we were all well fed and it was super tasty. Most of all being able to have everything planned for each day and being able to relax on the boat was really nice.

We got on the Big Blu for the 5 day Navigator cruise. It was a lot of fun with a nice balance of activities, partying and relaxing at the swim stops. The boat was kept tidy and clean every day thanks to the boat crew. The crew were very sociable and great fun to hang out with. Shout out to Marko, Hicela and Mateo. I can see a lot of work goes into the smooth running of the sailing week. Would definitley return to the Big Blu.

Had an absolute ball, Croatia is truely breathtaking! The ship itself was awesome. Thank god for Rosa, Marko and Robi being so amazing because the other half and the tour leader sucked and were creepy. Ivan watched over me as I did my first review, making me uncomfortable and not being able to say how i truely felt, while questioning the generous 3 rating I gave him. He seemed like he didn’t want to be there and made a few of the girls uncomfortable. Sorry to be so negative, but I made some great friends and enjoyed then destinations.

Hi Kirsten, Thank you for your 4-star review. We are pleased to hear you had an absolute blast on our cruise and found the ship and the destinations, simply awesome - it's really great to hear. Your comments regarding Rosa, Marko and Robi will be passed on to them, thanks. We are sorry to read your comments about Ivan. We pride ourselves on having the best guides, who are professional, friendly and helpful, but also have a passion for their country and culture, so we are really disappointed to read your comments, especially as Ivan has received an average of 4 star ratings. We have highlighted this to his Manager for future improvements, thank you. We're glad you got to make some friends on your journey and we hope to see you again real soon!
Group leader Tea was great- quite fun and informative on each place we stopped at whilst also making the effort to mingle with us and make our trip the best possible. Only downside was my lower deck cabin among with other people’s being very hot at night and the fan didn’t work with also not much ventilation down there but other then that I would recommend the sail to others.
- Isaac, 09/09/2019 06:11, Travelled with Friend/s
Thanks so much for your review! It is amazing to hear that Tea was such a great Representative for you and your group. I'll be sure to pass your comments onto our Operations Manager regarding the Lower Deck cabins. Thank you for your recommendation!

We had an amazing week on our boat. The crew and our guide 'Duje' ensured we all had a fantastic experience. Our lower level standard room (room 14) seemed to be the smallest on the boat which was the only negative of our trip. Luckily we had an amazing crew and fellow guests which made up for it!!

Thanks for your review and for joining us this season! :)
Split return was amazing! The landscape was beautiful sailing along for the week, we partied at great places every night and the food was more than average considering the tiny kitchen they had to work with. We also paid the extra to be above deck but the fan in our room did nothing with the heat and during the afternoon the sun would beam down on our rooms making it impossible to sleep. I’d recommend going below deck because it is so much cooler down there at night. My only downer would be that out main tour guide was a bit lazy with the group. Compared to previous organised tours, it felt like he would just tell us where to go but had no involvement with us feeling a little disconnected.

The boat crew and tour lead made this an enjoyable week long party. It would have been nicer to maybe have more time in each spot, however that is a benefit of hindsight. Rooms are as you expect however the en-suites leave room for improvement. The common bathroom and shower areas are sufficient. Croatia really turned on the sun for us with great weather the whole trip.

Thanks for your 5-stars. We're really glad you got a taste of how lovely Croatia can be, especially in the summer sun! We'll be sure to pass your comments on to the crew and your tour leader. We try to get a good balance between time on land and sea so that everyone gets to enjoy the swim stops in gorgeous secluded bays, and the convenience of docking right outside the towns to explore. Thank you for your comments on our Ensuite ships, for added luxury and comfort, we would recommend our Premier ship next time🙂

Pros: Met plenty of great people on our boat, swim stops in beautiful locations, scenic locations visited and clubs on offer for the north route. Cons: Expensive (Bar prices very expensive comparative to on land options considering you would rather sit on the boat and drink, maybe some more happy hour specials on popular drinking options not just the already expensive options.) (Excursion prices outrageous especially in comparison to the prices offered by other tour agencies on land.)
- Matt, 12/08/2019 22:04, Travelled with Friend/s
Hi there and thank you for your review. We are really happy to know you enjoyed meeting like-minded travellers on your cruise and enjoyed the wonderful swim stops and scenic locations. We appreciate your comments on the bar prices and this is something we will pass on to the Operations Manager, highlighting more happy hour specials. We try to keep our prices competitive and offer our excursions as an optional activity during the week. We hope that overall you enjoyed your week in Croatia, thank you.
The crew was not the friendliest or nicest to majority of passengers on the boat. The amount of tips they expect at the end is ridiculous. If they want tips they should provide better service. They need a better variety of food. You aren’t allowed to bring snacks on and they don’t have any on board. The actual sail was the best week of my life. You go to some amazing places and meet some of the best people. I would do it again but i know what to expect next time.

Daniel was a fantastic host and represented the company extremely well. I had a great time and all the crew onboard were really nice. Bartender Ivana was always cheerful and full of life. Chef Igor was a great cook and a very friendly person. While I had limited interactions with the sailors, they were both very nice when I did see them. The boat itself was lacking in some areas. The toilets always had a terrible smell. I understand that sewage systems onboard are not great however the smell in our toilet at all times was unbearable. It was no fault of the company or people on board, but something to consider in the future. All in all, the trip was great!

Was an awesome week with a great group of people and staff. Our sail rep Bri was amazing. She was very helpful and organised in keeping our week flow nicely.

Bri and the crew on Milena were amazing. Thanks again for a great week.

Thank you so much for your lovely review - we really are happy to hear you enjoyed your Sail Croatia experience and your comments will be passed on to your rep Bri - we agree, she is amazing! Thanks :-)
The facilities, people and crew were everything i expected - sometimes even more! However I had hoped the activities were better explained and organised. I also hoped the food was much better, as I saw many images on Sail Croatia's social media which looked much better than what we got. But most meals were tasty. One thing i did not expect was how late we sometimes arrived on the islands, but again, i can understand that too, so was fine with it. I would just warn others not to expect to do/see too much on the islands as there often isn't much time at all between arrival, dinner and going out. Nonetheless - an experience I won't forget! Thank you :)

This was my second sail. I loved the first one so I came back with my partner. Tea was amazing she made our experience even better. She was present, friendly and approachable. The boat was great as well as the captain. I do however have a recommendation about the bar. On my last sail we each had wristbands where each drink purchased was recorded on a computer system. This time it was controlled by the bar staff on a sheet where I and many of the other guests had been over charged. Even to the point where we took photos for proof and magically the numbers increased over night. I believe the bar tab should be in the hands of the customer and not the staff. This ended badly and effected the overall experience. I felt that it was cheaper and much better to buy drinks on the islands and not on the boat. Ivona was so lovely, Adriana could have been a bit more approachable and friendly. I am speaking as a guest who does not drink much (1-2 drinks a day on board). Thank you for a great time

Daniel was a great tour manager and the crew were wonderful on our Split Return South sailing trip. We had such a great week! A favorite part was the swimming stops and if possible, more time would have been appreciated at those. The only other thing I would suggest is more communication. We were told at lunch the various schedules of the day. I think it would help if there was a “day sheet” or some sort of schedule hanging for people to refer to and take a photo of for reference. Contiki uses this and we have found it very helpful.

Hi there - thanks for your review! We're glad to hear you had a great week on your Split Return (South) cruise and enjoyed the swim stops! We appreciate your suggestion on a day sheet, thank you - we will feed this back to our Operations Team!
Sail Croatia week was one of the best weeks of our Europe trip. Although prepare your livers - there is a lot of drinking and partying in a different location each night. Great secret swim spots each day to wash away the hangover. Our Sail Croatia host Ivana on the Navigator ship was super helpful and informative! And shout out to our bartender Alena for her positive attitude and always making sure we were having a great time! Would not have been the same without these ladies!

Hi there - thank you for your review of your Navigator cruise with us this season! We really are pleased to hear that your Sail Croatia week was one of the best during your time in Europe. Great that you enjoyed the swim stops! I'll be sure to pass your kind words onto Ivana and the rest of the team on board, it's amazing that they made the trip for you :) Thank you!
Weather was amazing, our Captain took us to the best swim stops everyday (Go Tuna) which cured the hangover really fast, food was good, people were great, dinners were nice and the bars were very cool and quirky. Would have loved fans or air con to survive the heat somedays & would rather pay my bar tab as I went instead of lump sum at the end.
- Katrina, 01/07/2019 06:36, Travelled with Friend/s
Thank you for your review - we're glad you enjoyed your time onboard Tuna and got to visit some amazing places during your stay with us. We know the weather was really hot during your cruise, as you booked an Ensuite cabin (which excludes air-con) maybe next time book one of our lovely Premier ships to ensure you are kept cool in your cabin with the included air-con facilities. You are welcome to request a copy of your bar tab at any time for budgeting purposes, just let your bar man know ;-)
We loved the tour! The swim stops every day were amazing, the lunch provided each day was exquisit. The places we went on the tour were so beautiful. The only thing that would have been good was knowing the layout of the day and what times everything would be. Also would say that in the boat we were in the room was super small which was expected. There is an aircon in the hallway and if the cabin doors are left open it does get cool. The tour itself and our manager were awesome. He had lots of facts and information about every place we were going. He recommended well priced places and knew a lot about the places we were in. Was a great time.

Hi there! Thank you so much for your honest review. It really is great to hear you loved the tour, your time with us on board and also on the swim stops enjoying beautiful Croatia. As the ships are small motor cruisers the cabins onboard our Standard ships can be a little small, so we encourage you to spend more time exploring :). However, if you were wanting a larger cabin - we recommending opting for the Premier ship option. Awesome that your Tour Manager had lots of facts and information about each location, this can make you feel like you really have got to know the country well even in just the 1 week of sailing! Thank you so much for your recommendation, we're glad you had a great time.
You get to meet new people travelling all over the world

Thanks for your review Gemma - glad to hear you enjoyed yourselves!
Ana our guide was fantastic. She was absolutely lovely and so knowledgeable. She was always there for any of the passengers aboard when we needed her. I cannot say one bad thing about Ana. We all loved her. However the boat bartender was very moody and rude at times. Sometimes it felt like we were being treated like children. The crew did not interact much with the passengers and seemed like they didnt want to be there. We were given 1 towel to use for the whole week and it rained most of the week. It's pretty hard to dry a towel when it's raining and damp, we didnt appreciate this. Overall I still really enjoyed meeting all the lovely passengers and made some news friends that I will hopefully see again. The boat itself had broken stereo speakers and we werent allowed to play music at alot of the stops. Come on it's a party boat, music is a must people! Sail Croatia might want to consider hiring a new boat.
- Kyle, 06/06/2019 09:29, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for your review. We are really pleased to hear your guide Ana was lovely, helpful and knowledgeable - we will be sure to pass this on to the Operations Manager. We are also glad you made some new friends and enjoyed the company of your fellow passengers. We appreciate your comments regarding the towel, crew and stereo - all your comments will be passed on to the relevant department to rectify this immediately. Thank you again and we hope overall, you enjoyed your time with us.
Friendly crew, nice locations, decent food provided.

Thanks for your review!
The staff onboard our cruise were some of the best people I’ve ever met, they worked so hard but still found time to joke around and have fun with us. Overall the trip was one of the best weeks of my travels so far! The other travellers on the boat were so much fun. I was nervous at first as to how I would go making new friends but instead I made a whole new family. However, I thought it was a bit cheeky that the clubs (main disappointment, Deep) advertised to us by head office weren’t even open at the time of our cruise so it was never going to be an option for us to attend... I would have preferred they had been a bit more honest with what we were going to have available to us at the time of year the cruise was offered.

Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear you enjoyed the cruise overall, had loads of fun, and met some great people. We know how nerve wracking it can be joining a boat with a bunch of new people, however we are happy to know you and your fellow travellers became one big family at the end of the cruise. In regards to the clubs and bars in Croatia, opening times can vary and if this is the case, your representative will offer some great alternative options. Thank you again for your review!
We met a few really great people who will be friends for life. The crew on board the boat were amazing.

What an amazing week packed full of exciting adventures, beautiful swim stops, and tasty food.

Highly recommend if you love to party, meet new people and be blown away by Croatia's beauty.

I travelled with my partner (both from NZ), I’m 23 and he is 26. We went on a navigator cruise from Dubrovnik to Split. I highly recommend this cruise if you are young, love to meet meet new people and love to party. We had met an awesome bunch of people and also had a cool boat crew. We had the most epic week, made lots of memories and met some amazing new friends while exploring 7 places in beautiful Croatia. Cheers Sail Croatia!!

For someone that usually gets unwell on boats I'm happy to say that I felt great on this sail. The Capatain was great, swim spots were so beautiful and we got to stay for a good amount of time. I loved all the little islands/towns we got to explore. My boat TUNA was amazing with such a great group of people, we had a lot of fun 😂 Katarina our guide was very lovely and would go above and beyond for all of us! Would defiantly do it again.
- Tinnielle, 25/06/2018 08:43, Travelled with Friend/s
The Sail Croatia crew on our ship Tuna were outstanding! My partner and I are both vegan and gluten free so I was hesitant at first to book but the chef and crew paid attention to our dietary requirements and provided the most yummiest lunches!!! We were so over the moon! A huge thanks to them!!! Our tour guide Mila was friendly and helpful. I really enjoyed going to secret swimming spots everyday to refresh and relax! It was a tiring but cool and rewarding week at sea!

Sail Croatia was amazing. The islands we visited were stunning and the daily ocean swim stops were so much fun. The staff were friendly and we made good friends with them and we felt looked after. We bonded so much with our group and every night going out together was heaps of laughs and good times. Unfortunately there was bed bugs on our ship and we gave one of the other couples our mattress after the crew didn't sort out the problem and they and many others had no where to sleep. That was the only negative.
- Ellie, 18/09/2017 07:28, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for your 4-star review. We are pleased to hear you found Sail Croatia amazing and the islands visited, and swim stops lots of fun! Thank you for your comments on the staff, it's nice to hear you were well looked after and bonded with the rest of the good group onboard your boat. We have a rigorous processes for any sightings of bed bugs on our boats and I have checked our internal records. I see that a few guests boarded the boat with bed bugs that they contracted prior to joining our cruise. Our crew had followed our 'bed bug' process and offered a full cabin service and organised drycleaning of their personal belongings. We appreciate your concern - this issue was resolved immediately and directly with the guests in question. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us.
This was one of the best holidays I have ever been on but being stuck on a boat with a bunch of teenagers was not what I signed up for!!! I highly recommend you take this trip as you get to see the best of Croatia at your leisure. The staff & crew of The Navigator were amazing. The food onboard was incredible tasty & beers even better. As a married man, along with friends who are also married, the only drawback was sharing the boat with inconsiderate, drunken younglings. This was by no means a cheap holiday & didn't sign up for a party every night. There should be a clear indicator of what age group you will be sharing your trip with. We were under the impression there would be no one under the age of 25 on our boat & this was not the case. Aircon was non existent but you don't really need it if you can keep your cabin door open. Due to the noise levels we could not. All in all it's a trip I will never forget & fell in love with Croatia like no other place in the world.
- Donavan De Jong, 14/09/2017 16:27, Travelled with Friend/s
Hi there and thank you for your review. It's great to know that this was one of the best holiday's you had ever been on. We are pleased you enjoyed the food and beverages provided onboard - thank you for your comments here. Air-conditioning was not included in your cabin as you had booked a cabin on an Ensuite boat, however our Premier and Premier Plus boats include air-conditioned cabins. In regards to the ages onboard, we are really sorry to hear of your disappointment with this aspect of the cruise. Our Navigator cruises are aimed at under 35 year old travellers, the age range of 18-35 years can also be found under our Navigator FAQ's page. We are really pleased to know that overall, you enjoyed the trip of a lifetime and fell in love with Croatia. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us!
Great food & great staff!

What I loved; - The price of things were very cheap compared to the UK - Loved sitting on the deck whilst the boat was cruising and taking in the incredible views - Crew were great and very friendly - Beautiful Cities Could improve; - Not enough swim stops, we didn't have any one day and on another we only had a 10 minute swim stop - Maintenace on the boat wasn't great, a few of the fans as well as the light at the back of the boat wasn't working, we needed to use our cellphones for light - Most of the lilos flew of off the back of the boat, other boats tied them up. - Beds were tiny, I'm tall so had to sleep with my feet out the window. - The shower head is an extension from the basin and toilet constantly smelt, not sure if the draining system wasn't great - Our boat cut the music and bar around 10ish where as the other boats went on later. All in all I would recommend it but improvements to the small things would make a big difference.
- Nick, 04/09/2017 09:58, Travelled with Friend/s
Thank you for your review. We appreciate all your comments and are pleased to hear the prices were cheap in comparison to the UK, you enjoyed the beautiful Croatian coastline, the crew were friendly and you enjoyed the itinerary. Thank you for your comments. We have noted your recommendations on providing more swim stops, improving maintenance on the boat, securing the lilos onboard (if provided), and the music onboard. In regards to the maintenance issues that occured during your week, I have checked our internal records and can see that once the crew were made aware, this was resolved immediately. Regarding the music onboard, each location has a night curfew set by Port Authorities that our boats adhere to - not adhering to noise curfews can result in penalties. We are unable to comment on the other companies playing music later than the set curfew. We are pleased that these improvements didn't detract from your time in Croatia and onboard your cruise. Thank you for recommending us and we hope to have you join us for another Croatian adventure!
I just want to say a huge thank you to all staff. I didn't know what to expect hoping onto the boat but it was amazing. The food was absolutely perfect and the staff in the kitchen did an amazing job not only was the food the best but getting it out on time every day is just incredible. Hats off to you guys. All the staff was friendly and I really enjoyed my time. Chur !

My experience with Sail Croatia was great although the boat we where was slightly under satisfactory. Our room although small and hot was forgotten when the 10-15kg port hole fell on my face causing a very painful and large bruise under my eye. There was also a small opening in the wall that caused an electric shock through my body. The crew, boat, and Sail Croatia representative where really great and made my experience amazing but, the safety at of the boat was something that needed to be reviewed.

We are really pleased to hear that your representative made your experience amazing and again, we thank you for your review!

I loved that apart from the party aspect of the sail boats there was also a really nice inclusion on history and knowledge of the places we were traveling to by our tour guides. Lara was so knowledgable and helpful if anyone had any questions. The whole boat of mala Kate had such great staff who were helpful, respectful and so much fun at night to party and talk with. Only downfall is that when the generator was off the rooms were incredibly hot and I had no way of charging my phone which meant I couldn't take photos of some of my experiences. All in all tho I had so so much fun and would recommend highly to anyone

Had high expectations going on a navigator cruise as people told me it was the "best week" ever!

Sail Croatia, how do I even begin to describe it in 1000 words. The destinations will take your breath away, and if that doesn't, jumping off the top deck of your gorgeous boat for the first time into crystal clear blue water will! You will eat the most amazing home-like meals and be served any drink you could possibly ask for. You've got a question? Our representive Vedron would have the answer, and if he didn't, he would find out before you even had the chance to ask again. He was caring, fun, down to earth and very organized making our experience on sail seamless. The people make it very special with excursions for you to bond and clubs for you to boogie. Our air conditioned rooms made sleeping after a big night out easy, and watching the sunrise on the top deck after stumbling home was a once in a lifetime opportunity. The Adria crew on the Ocean boat were flawless and we are stoked with their hospitality. Subanking, Adventuring, snorkeling and partying! OH & YOU MUST GO CANYONING!

My partner, Zach and I had an amazing time on our Sail Croatia. The country was absolutely stunning, with Hvar being one of the most beautiful places we have visited to date. We were extremely fortunate enough to have had a great group of nearly 40 people, all getting along and sharing travelling stories as well as different drinking games for fun. Both Zach and I have made several friends we intend to keep in touch with once back in Australia, including our guide Alex who was extremely friendly, genuine and such a caring person. We are very excited that she is moving to our home state in Australia and intent to keep in touch with her. She certainly made our experience on Croatia Sail one to remember forever. Thank you team Sail Croatia and especially you Alex. Zach and Tiaan.

Lara was a wonderful host! The rooms were much better than I had thought- cool temperature with private bathrooms. I was also very impressed with the food. Unfortunately, things that were not so good included our bar tender was very sour over the week, there was very little to do during the day except for tan on the deck and lastly, on the final night my wallet was taken with 600 kuna ($120) taken out of it which I have a strong suspicion was by the bar tender as a result of not tipping him.

Everything went perfectly on Amadeus, the ship I have been booked on. Breakfast, lunch, cocktail bar, excusions, you can trust in them. The bad point stays the importance of Australian people which represent easily more than 80% of ship populations. A perfect english understanding is thus necessary.
- Anonymous, 03/07/2017 14:01, Travelled with Friend/s
Had a great time. But firstly our standard ship wasn't 'sea worthy' so we were put on a premium boat which was very nice but there were more rules and we had to keep the music down a lot. Sometimes it felt like school camp as everyone was given a lecture almost everyday for things that other people had done which isn't appreciated and ruined the mood. The fact that Sail Croatia doesn't check their boats until they have left the port is worrying. I don't recommend the Buggies unless you have goggles because the dust in your eyes ruins it. Highly recommend either canyoning or zip lining. But thankfully I met some awesome people and the islands were beautiful.
- Robyn, 03/07/2017 07:18, Travelled in a Couple
Thank you for your review. We have a curfew onboard all our boats where music is to be turned off and night peace respected. The cut-off times vary between islands and this is set by the Port Authorities, not adhering to these rules could incur hefty penalty fees so all our boats are to adher to these rules and regulations. Those that are wanting to party are more than welcome to do so, on land. We conduct thorough checks at the beginning of the season and checks throughout the season for any issues that may arise. We are very pleased to hear you enjoyed the canyoning and zip lining excursion, and met some lovely people along the way. Thank you again for sharing your experience with us.
Had a really great time on Sail Croatia. Would recommend getting an above deck cabin. Be wary that Sail Croatia's price point is lower than other companies as there are a lot of extra costs including alcohol, meals and activities that aren't always the best value.

Hi there and thank you for your review. We are so pleased to hear you had a great time on our Navigator cruise. On our website we confirm what is included in our prices - breakfasts and lunches. With dinner, we don't include this as we want our guests to go out and try the lovely Croatian cuisine. Alcohol and exursions are optional as we feel you can budget for this and spend as much or as little as you like. We thank you again for your comments.
Sail Croatia. Words do not describe how amazing this experience was. Parties every night, a boat full of the most awesome people, life long friendships made. The food was amazing, the Croatian cities were amazing. I have experienced nothing like this before and would highly recommend anyone who loves a good time to get out there and do it!!

Went on Split Return Navigator cruise on the Premier ship - Pacific. Great ship and facilities. Met and exceeded my expectations but lacked on the tour operator quality. Unfortunately he was shared between another ship, of which we were never introduced to (heard heaps of other ships being docked out in the ocean together and having parties), gave us very vague and little detail on the activities and plans for the day. Also had poor recommendations for restaurants, bars and clubs that suited the tastes of our group. Found better prices by ourselves for activities not run through him and better bars, restaurants and clubs. But, apart from that Sail-Croatia was an insanely amazing week, and massive appreciation to the efforts and kindness of Shima and M (barman) who made the experience that much better. Would join Sail-Croatia again in a heartbeat

Thank you for your review. It's so good to hear that this was the best week of your life and that you found the ship Pacific to be a great overall. We are also pleased to know the cruise exceeded your expectations. However, we are sorry to hear of your disappointments. We had two ships scheduled on this departure date and cruise type, and your rep was solely responsible for both ships. I'm really sorry to hear you were given very little information about daily activities and scheduling, and poor recommendations for available bars, clubs and restaurants. All our representatives are given appropriate training prior to the season. We acknowledge that further training may be required for your rep to ensure he is up to standards to exude all the qualities our reps are known for; helpful, friendly, professional and informative - your comments have been passed on to our Operations Team to investigate further. Thank you for your comments here. Overall we are very pleased to know that you had an amazing week with special mention to Shima and M (the barman) - we will be sure to pass your comments on to them to enjoy. We hope to have you back soon to enjoy another week with us.
Staff was excellent, food was even better (although small portions).

We had a great week on board the Maestral for our Navigator cruise. The boat was clean and out cabin was a private double bed as we had requested. We were very well fed on the ship for breakfast and lunch, and the crew was very accomodating and friendly. The excursion options were nice, but a little pricey. The suggested dinner locations were also a bit pricey, and some of them were less than great quality food. Overall though it was a very fun time, and we were able to coordinate our own excursions and do our own things for dinners anyways. We enjoyed the nightclubs we were taken to very much as well. Our Sail Croatia representative was wonderful and a really fun guy. I would recommend this cruise to others :)

The cruise was magnificent in terms of the views - majestic mountains in the background with crystal clear, bright blue sea water. The crew was very friendly and helpful. A little more attention to detail could be given to itenarary arrangements - excursions, places, times, etc. Overall awesome experience.

Our tour guide was really experienced in what people on sail Croatia usually like and don't like. We were worried about getting a group we didn't fit in with, but everyone on our boat was beyond amazing. Memories of a lifetime.

Even though we went on the last cruise of the season and the weather was far from warm, we still had such a good week with stanko. Sail Croatia made everything so easy and such a good environment to make great friends :)

Everyone was very friendly, including the crew (Naval). There was lots of drinking and partying. Lunches on the boat were surprisingly delicious. Loved the sight seeing!

Met amazing people, great excursions, Ivanna (our rep) was lovely. The only thing I will say negative - I wish the music and bar could stay on longer other boats had their music on much later but our Captain just seemed so grumpy.

The Sail Croatia Navigator cruise was an excellent week of meeting new people, discovering new places and taking in some sea and sightseeing. Our boat name was \"the navigator\" which was a premier ship. The rooms were a good size and the beds comfortable. Our bathroom was perfect and the shower had great pressure. The meals were very standard and salty (think there could be improvement here). Our barman Mladin (Mika) transformed our ship into the amazing vibe it was. Mika was the life of the party and you can only be lucky to have this guy around. The other staff were also great. My only negative comment is that i found our boat leader Andy to be very apathetic and quite stand-off. He didnt make the activities sound attractive and treated the group like strict teacher. i felt like i was in school at lunch everyday. I know it was one of his last weeks for the season but its no reason to be so negative and demotivating. All in all i thoroughly enjoyed the trip and would recommend it

The places we sailed were beautiful and the vibes on the boat at night before we went out were amazing. We had a great group and made some friends for life. We plan to meet up somewhere in the world for a reunion.

Cruise was awesome it\'s a great week to make new friends, party and get some great shots of the coast! We had a great bunch of people on board with us which makes it easier. Lauren was our host she did a good job she was super busy working on 5 boats but always had time for us all! Yoshi did well pouring us all drinks each night only wish happy hours were longer haha Of course there\'s a few things that could do with a tweak. For a party boat you stay on the boring islands longer than you do the party islands, and you get told to be back on board by 5 and the boat doesn\'t depart till 8. Food was better on some days then others I feel sorry for any vegetarians out there! We also missed out on our last swim stop which was annoying and they all could have been a little longer! Overall an awesome week it\'s a must do!

Had a particularly good boat. We were all of similar ages, and had similar temperaments. I enjoyed all the places we went, although I do wish we had an extra night in Makarska. The crew were supportive and happy to help.

The experience that I had on our boat over the duration of the Split-Dubrovnik route was on the best weeks of my life. The combination of a great group that gelled well and got along on all levels as well as a responsive and organised cabin crew made for an amazing week. The ability for us as customers to interact so closely with the crew was unbelievable. The only feedback I could give would be for more organised Sail Croatia reps. A lot of the time we were given inconsistent and contradictory information about excursions, arrivals, night events and it was very hard to get a hold of someone each day to talk to. The morning address and arrival information feels very rushed, maybe assign a rep to each boat? More onboard medical facilities would be amazing, especially medicine to treat bee stings for those allergic!!

It was the overall location that made my trip. The staff on the boat were amazing. There were a few hidden costs/mis communication of tour managers and some of the optional activities which could have been avoided. Overall my trip was average compared to what was expected (maybe I set the standards to high), however still had an amazing time!

The food was spot on, I was expecting less but very nice, the lunches were the best meals had on the boat. Swim stops and the amount of time (Sometimes we got to elect to stay longer which we always did). Information along the way, would have been nice to have one single contact the whole time but was helpful information about restaurants and discounts.

Food was really good! Not enough time for swim spots. Cabin was good except for the smell coming out of the drain pipe in the shower. The places we docked at were amazing especially Mljet. Overall it's a good cruise

Everyone was friendly (after a couple days people really bonded etc) Activities were good Ship was good Food was amazing Rooms were decent

Due to bad weather, We missed to ports which is not under any ones control. The shore reps and boat crew made it their best effort for us to enjoy the most of the trip. I wish the boats ALL so the local beer on board.

Overall the cruise was great. We loved the swim stops and how every day we were somewhere new on the way to our destination. Breakfast was simple - lunch much better and enjoyed this very much Drinks- good variety, pricing average but overall a reasonable week of drinking. Rooms- I had requested a double bed as we were a couple- no contact was made to let me know this boat intact had no above deck double bed rooms - I would have been happier to be below deck with air con and a double bed - disappointed in this lack of communication Activities schedule - frequent changes and flat out denial and non disclosure about availability of activities eg - buggies - overbooked for that day apparently so out your guide didn't even offer he activity - it was until we asked what happened to that activity that we were given a long winded answer about how many boats sailing at the moment. The sail Croatia recommendations were let downs night clubs, restaurants as they were in business withSC

Somehow our boat the maestral was the most fun and loudest boat on the water. Everyone was on the same page and having a great time. Dario is a champion!
