My wife and I had an absolute blast on the 7-day Split-to-Dubrovnik Explorer cruise on the Contessa. This was our first cruise ever, and it wildly exceeded our expectations. Every stop was a treasure in it's own way, the recently renovated ship has a modern/elegant design, the cabins were spacious, food on on-board was great, crew was fantastic and friendly, and our tour guide Lola made sure we knew all the fun activities to do, and the best places to dine. Highly recommend., 5 star experience.

The staff on Contessa were excellent.. helpful and friendly. Lola was very organized and always available to answer questions or assist with restaurant reservations and suggestions. 10 out of 10.

We finally managed to bring some of our family with us to show them how beautiful Croatia is and how good holidaying this way is. The Captain and crew were exceptionally good this year especially our chef Kole

We just absolutely loved our cruise. We felt like we had an actual holiday. Spent our mornings cruising to a swim spot and the afternoon and evenings exploring new islands and villages. Food and staff incredible.

Our week on the Sail Croatia Explorer aboard Almissa far exceeded our expectations. Lauren and the crew were amazing, and everything ran so smoothly. The swim stops were beautiful, and the food was always delicious. A special thank you to Bobby and Marko for catering so well to gluten-free dietary requirements - we never felt like we were missing out. A huge shoutout to Ceaser and Kafka for the fun nights, great music, and always bringing the good vibes. The week truly had something for everyone, whether you wanted a social night out or an early night in (or both, like us!). What really made the trip special was the group of guests. There was such a fun mix of people and ages (we're in our mid-20s), and by the end of the week, it felt like one big happy family. We’ve left Almissa with incredible memories and couldn't recommend this experience highly enough.

Our Salve di Mare Explorer Cruise was truly unforgettable. From the moment we boarded, the crew made the experience feel personal, luxurious, and effortlessly fun. Our onboard representative, Matilda, was fabulous; witty, personable, organized, and always sharing history and local tidbits of each port. Marko & Vlaho mastered the balance of polished bartenders and friends, with perfect prosecco pours flowing late into the evening, then back up early each morning serving breakfast without missing a beat. Chef Bojan & sous chef Fani prepared incredible meals daily - I’m still thinking about the stuffed tomato starter. Captain Frane’s Dinner was a highlight, especially once the impromptu conga line pulled in sailors Fadil & Richard! The Salve di Mare itself is stunning; sleek, modern, impeccably clean thanks to Julija, and clearly built with pride and craftsmanship. Every port was beautiful, but some of my favorite moments were simply onboard laughing and lounging with everyone aboard.

I had an amazing time sailing with Sail Croatia. A huge shoutout to our trip leader, Lauren, who was fantastic throughout the journey. She had incredible knowledge about every destination we visited and always had great recommendations for things to do, places to eat, and local experiences. Her enthusiasm and expertise really enhanced the trip. The crew on the Almissa were absolutely amazing and made us feel welcome from day one. The service was exceptional, and the food on board exceeded all expectations—it was consistently delicious and one of the highlights of the trip. The overall vibe of the trip was fantastic, with a great mix of relaxation, adventure, and socialising. My favourite part was definitely the daily swim stops. Getting to jump into the crystal-clear Adriatic waters every day was an unforgettable experience. Thank you to Lauren and the Almissa crew. You guys are the best.

- Grace, 13/06/2026 14:05, Travelled with Friend/s

The week was amazing, really exceeded my expectations! Lauren our trip guide was the best, so much fun and lots of knowledge. The crew on the boat were so friendly and helpful too. Would deff come back and go on the Almissa :)

We scheduled our Sail Croatia trip hoping for a Family Adventure and it was SO MUCH MORE than we had even hoped! Croatia was beautiful! Waking up every morning on the Almissa to a new swim spot was epic and the excursions were fantastic! But Without a doubt, the best part was the people…the crew and the 32 new friends that we will never forget! Lauren, our host, was fantastic! She made every excursion seamless, and her brief history of each destination befire our arrival was one of our favorite parts of the trip. Thank you to Kavka and Ceasar for keeping our drinks full and keeping us laughing! ! To Marko and Bobby for the fabulous food and sensitivity to a dairy allergy. To Geo and Chapo for making sure we were safely docked, and ready for our daily swims. And to Captain Joseph for manning the helm safely! And to all of our new friends who started out as shipmates and ended as friends! What an adventure to remember!

Fabulous family trip with brilliant crew and fantastic cruise director. The 7 days we spent with Sail Croatia on an Explorer cruise on the beautiful Contessa is an experience I will long remember. Anita, our cruise director kept us updated every day and was super helpful with any request we had. Thank you Anita- your knowledge of our destinations, recommendations and patience was outstanding. Bar staff, Nino and Martin were good fun and always keen to help. Thanks for the card game lesson! The rest of the crew were also helpful and responsive to any requests- food was consistently very good and catered for our meal preferences. Great tour options at each location. Looking forward to an opportunity to travel with Sail Croatia again. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our trip w Sail Croatia was wonderful on all fronts. The MS Contessa was recently refurbished and felt like a brand new, luxury yacht. The crew was incredibly helpful, kind and always available as needed. And our trip guide, Anita, was the absolute best and always there to keep us having fun, providing exceptional excursion options, making sure we were always safe and providing up-to-date plans for each day, I would highly recommend Sail Croatia to anyone looking for a truly amazing vacation.

Salve di Mare is a beautiful boat. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. The lunches were delicious. Our guide Nikos was wonderful. He had recommendations for bars and restaurants and was helpful with the excursions. We had a small group and enjoyed all the guest on the boat. I cannot think of a better way to see the coast of Croatia. I would highly recommend Sail Croatia and Salve di Mare.

We had an absolutely fantastic time on our 7 day Explorer cruise, aboard the Contessa! The staff were friendly and went out of their way to make everyone on board happy and comfortable! Communication was prompt and efficient and we always knew what was up next on the agenda. We loved that you could choose to excursion with the group or go explore each stop on your own. A must do trip!

The whole week was wonderful and I am definitely going to recommend it to friends. It was a very relaxing combination of swim stops and activities. The rooms were a good size, the food was excellent and the crew lovely. It was a very enjoyable week and very sad to have to disembark. Only suggestion I have is please take card payments, especially for paying the bar bill. I think people would make more use of the bar if they weren't trying to make thei

OMG… this trip was AMAZING! I found Sail Croatia on Google, from my very first enquiry right through to the very last day stepping off the boat, the communication & service were exceptional. My sister & I travelled from Split to Dubrovnik Day 1 unfortunately greeted us with rain, however the crew lifted everyone’s spirits with a welcome drink onboard, cosy blankets & warm hospitality all around. The crew were absolutely incredible, honestly cannot fault any one of them. They all worked so well together as a team. Nikos, the best! He kept us updated daily through both the group chat & verbal briefings, always making sure everyone knew the plans, timings & options available. knowledge of Croatian history & he delivered everything with humour & personality. Captain Frane constantly amazed watching him manoeuvre the boat into each port with such skill. Marco & Vlaho were both hilarious, friendly & absolute joy to see every single day. Julija looked after us/cabins exceptionally. Food Yum!

fantastic. We were already excited with 12 friends old and new coming together together to go on Sail Croatia. But the fellow passengers and amazing and fun crew just added to it. 2nd time round in Almissa and was as fab as the first time. Clean, comfortable, good food and a great mix of people and ages. having a new stop everyday was great. we could have kept going at the end of the week. Thanks all xxx

From the moment my friend and I got on board the Tempera, we were greeted by such a friendly team. Marin (our representative) was amazing!

I travelled on board Sail Croatia with my friend and we had the best time ever. It was so easy, with everything organised for us by our tour representative, ensuring that we didn’t have to lift a finger the whole week. Beautiful locations every day and plenty of fun activities to give you a taste of each place. Everyone on board was so welcoming and thorough in their care for all guests.

Our trip through the Croatia islands with Calum aboard Tempura was fun and educational. The trip was from Split to Dubrovnik visiting wonderful islands along the way. The crew was extremely hardworking and helpful. Our guide and leader for the week was Calum. If you are fortunate enough to have him as you cruise leader, know that you will have an amazing holiday. He was very knowledgeable about each stop as well as the history of each island/town we stopped in. He planned trips, dinners and events every day making the trip extra special for my wife and I!

Our trip through Croatia aboard the Almissa was genuinely unforgettable. From the stunning coastline and crystal-clear water to the incredible atmosphere on board, everything exceeded expectations… but what truly made the experience special was the crew. The Almissa crew went above and beyond every single day to make sure we were safe, entertained, comfortable, and making the absolute most of every stop along the journey. Their energy, professionalism, and attention to detail turned an amazing vacation into a once-in-a-lifetime experience. A huge shoutout to Mava, our tour guide, who somehow managed to do it all!! Organizer, entertainer, problem-solver, local expert, and overall legend. He kept the trip running smoothly while making every moment feel effortless and fun. By the end of the cruise, none of us wanted to leave. You know a trip is special when the goodbye feels emotional. We left with incredible memories, new friendships, and a

My trip with Sail Croatia on the Almissa was truly the trip of a lifetime. The crew on Almissa - Mava, Kafka, and Ceazer are the best and became instant new friends. Mava is the cool local friend with the best, honest recommendations that truly elevated my experience in Croatia. Kafka and Ceazer behind the bar are the life of the party and kept our spirits high throughout the day and night! The food was delicious and the rooms were clean and spacious. I would 100% recommend to any friend that the best way to see Croatia is by boat on the Almissa.
