We loved our weeklong cruise from SPLIT to DUBROVNIK on ESPERANZA. Everything about it was simply wonderful. The staff and crew were amazing, the chef and food delicious, the swim locations and ports were wonderful. Two suggestions: get better and stronger coffee without asking for extra payments—everyone on board was very unhappy with the quality. Also….hooks in the bedroom sections of the cabins for a quick hang up of clothes rather than the wardrobe. Bathrooms had hooks but the main section of the cabins could use them as well. .

I sailed on the Esperanza on the route Split Return South. For travelers who enjoy yacht living, Sail Croatia offers a great combination of onboard pampering and daily water activities plus land sightseeing. The Dalmatian coast offers beautiful vistas and calm waters in the islands. Each stop offered different experiences from hiking to the Mjlet “lakes” to sitting on the Hvar promenade and people watching, to shopping, learning history, and museum going in Split, Dubrovnik and Korcula.

I booked the trip because Croatia was on my bucket list and they were waiving the single supplement on a few sailings. We were a small group which made it a more intimate experience. My cabin was spacious and very comfortable. Our cruise director Lola was a dream. Very organized, kind and patient. The crew performed their jobs invisibly. The ports were all interesting but my favorite was the daily swim stops. Jump into the Adriatic sea and swim for an hour! The cruise was incredibly relaxing! The chef did a stellar job feeding us a healthy Mediterranean diet with decadent desserts.Can't recommend this trip enough!

Had a great time ,only 20 guests on boat so was intermit made friends with everyone quickly, loved the fabulous old towns and the secluded swim spots the captain found for us , would highly recommend sail Croatia (I’d possibly do it again)

Absolutely loved this 7 day sail Croatia cruise, there was only 20 of us onboard and we have made lifetime friends 🥰 The staff were amazing, our cruise director Lola was absolutely outstanding, nothing was too hard for her , and she was wealth of knowledge I would highly recommend this company and their cruises, we sailed on Romantic Star and the boat and whole experience was outstanding!!!

I can honestly say that my experience aboard the Katarina of Sail Croatia was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we stepped on board, everything was beautifully organized, relaxed, and welcoming. The cruise was a fantastic way to discover the Croatian coast, with its breathtaking islands, crystal-clear waters, charming towns, and unforgettable swimming stops. Every day brought something new, while the atmosphere on board made the whole experience feel effortless and enjoyable. A special thank you to the wonderful crew, who were attentive, professional, warm, and always ready to help. Their hospitality truly made the trip memorable. The food, service, organization, and overall standard were excellent. What I will remember most, however, are the people we met, the laughter, the beautiful moments, and the incredible memories we created along the way. The Katarina of Sail Croatia cruise was a truly a special experience, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.

A fabulous experience travelling through the islands off the coast of Croatia. Very relaxing, great group of people, food was great and our Cruise guide Lola was fabulous keeping us informed always. Visited some beautiful islands, great old towns and national parks. Really enjoyed.

This was my first-ever cruise and the experience was fantastic! Although we went with a few other couples, we also became friends with almost everyone else on the boat and, along with the excellent crew, it really felt like family. I would absolutely recommend this experience to everyone,

Absolutely exceeded expectations! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our Sail Croatia trip was even better than I imagined — and my expectations were already very high! The crew were energetic, friendly and genuinely couldn’t do enough for us. The perfect mix of adventure, history, beautiful Croatian towns and those incredible swim stops. With the extreme heat, I would have happily had even more swim stops! Katarina was a beautiful boat and a real credit to the owner and crew, who worked constantly to keep her looking so well cared for. But what truly made the trip special was the people. We met such a wonderful group and shared so many laughs and memories. And our host ‘V’ was fantastic — his humour, energy and love for Croatia were infectious. I’m leaving with amazing memories and a real love for the Croatian coast. I hope to be back one day! 🇭🇷⛵️❤️

Highly recommend Sail Croatia. The people made the experience what it was; all of the crew and cruise director are superb! The crew was attentive, incredibly friendly, and remembered the small details that made interactions extra special. Our cruise director, Vedran, is wonderful. He’s knowledgeable, communicative, always one step ahead. His daily briefings were a welcome start to the day. The ship is family-owned and they take immense pride and care in the upkeep. They are present throughout the journey and even welcomes a few of us into the wheelhouse to talk to us about navigating the ship. Overall, a wonderful experience and I will definitely travel with Sail Croatia again.

We had a wonderful time sailing throughout Croatia's coastline and islands. Our Tour Manager, Anita did a wonderful job, caring for all of us and going out of her way to make sure we were all comfortable and happy. The ship was great and the weather was spectacular. The captain Ivan, and all the crew on board were friendly and hardworking. We were just sorry that the cruise only lasted one week, as we could have loved to explore more of Croatia.

Our 8 day Sail Croatia Elegance Cruise on board Katarina in July ticked all the boxes. Good food, great crew, magnificent scenery, the right amount of activities offered and comfortable lounges and cabins. We highly recommend Sail Croatia and in particular our excellent cruise director Anita. She was amazing.

Sail Croatia delivered a one of a kind experience that we will not soon forget. We were a group of 4 couples and this was our 1st time in Croatia. The tour offered us an amazing opportunity to hug the coastline, and see so many different islands-- big and small. The daily swim stops did not disappoint. They were spectacular! There truly was something for everyone. The entire crew was outstanding; and our tour manager Anita, was kind, caring, sweet, attentive, and funny. It's a 24/7 job to manage and please 30 plus varied guests. The rest of the guests were open, welcoming, and a true joy to be around! We could not have asked for better humans to dine and travel with! We hope our paths might cross again soon! Athina and Darcy xo

The elegance Katerina cruise was definitely one of our favorite trips. The crew was amazing! Our tour manager V was the absolute best, so funny, helpful , engaging and professional (we would seek another trip with the same people) ! We were a party of 10 from USA NY (we can be a lot ) and we met the nicest people from Australia, Canada , Great Britain. Our group of 36 forged nice friendships and great memories to last a lifetime !! This trip from Dubrovnik to Split was absolutely beautiful, the islands , swim stops , tours and care of the crew made this trip PERFECT! Huge shout out to V ,thank you for your humor ,knowledge , you made this trip !!!! Sail Croatia is fortunate to have you !! Let me not forget our fearless Captain as well as Ivana and Carlos .always there always a smile and the best service and the rest of the crew !!! You all were outstanding !! We will be back !

Our trip was beautiful in near every way. The crew were especially attentive, flexible, experienced and friendly. Our tour manager Vedran was key to our experience. He was the perfect balance of friendliness, professionalism and competence. The boat was comfortable and well appointed (although the WiFi was challenging outside the salon). The food was good with much variety available although if cuisine is your top priority it was good, not great. Our smaller ship allowed us to visit smaller ports not overrun with 1000s from large vessels. The itinerary introduced us to different experiences at each port, from a small fishing village to the glitzy riviera. A daily briefing allowed us to learn about each port and guided us to see the unique offerings and “must sees.” I was skeptical about the claim we’d have many new friends…. I was wrong, it’s 100% true. We enjoyed this so much we may very well do it again…. And we never do that. If you are on the fence, take this trip. Really.

The week on the Romantic Star was 5 Star all the way with an excellent, professional crew, outstanding service and delicious food. Every day was curated perfectly and Dino provided complete and helpful communication to provide us the optimal use of our time in each port. The swim stops were heaven. It seemed like every day was more beautiful than the day before. The ship is gorgeous and very well taken care of and clean. Captain Ivan runs a tight ship. Some opportunities for improvement. The crew smoked a lot and for the non-smoking guests, it was quite unbearable at times on such a small ship. Second, the swim stop toys need an upgrade. Two of the three float rafts were broken early in the week and not replaced. The snorkel masks are old and foggy. I even bought defogger and they still were unusable. For an elegant cruise, the equipment should be top notch. Thank you for a wonderful trip! I highly recommend and can’t wait to do it again!

We were a group of 5 couples from America. We had the best time! Vedran was the amazing! He was funny and so knowledgeable. He kept us updated on What’s app and made sure we knew so much about each stop. We had flight issues and he stayed up with us till midnight helping us on his laptop. I couldn’t imagine a better tour director. Our captain, Ivan was always around checking on us and we had so much fun with him at the captains dinner. My favorite part of the days were the swim stop. The deck was great at getting us in and out of the water safely. The hardest workers on the ship were Ivana and Carlo. They were always nearby with a drink or asking if there is anything we needed. Also Petra kept our rooms clean each day. This was definitely my favorite vacation and I will probably be back one day.

Being able to sail on the Adriatic and see Croatia from that perspective was an absolutely amazing experience! The entire staff made us feel right at home from the very beginning! Vicko, our rep, was so knowledgeable and entertaining. The swim stops were spectacular, with the crystal clear turquoise water. The food was delicious and it was so much fun to get to know the other passengers and share meals and excursions with them. It was truly an amazing vacation - I’m ready to go back again!!

Amazing Holiday!!! The crew of the Katarina were wonderful! It was a great pace of travel. Morning swim stops never disappointed and were very relaxing. After lunch was explore time on the various islands. Our host, Vicko, always made sure that we were well informed of things to do including dining suggestions. When the majority of us asked to go to the Blue Caves and do other activities as a group, he made it happen. Can’t wait to do it again!!

Our week aboard the Olimp was truly wonderful and one we’ll remember for a long time. With just 14 guests, everyone quickly got to know each other, creating a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. We shared lots of laughs, enjoyed beautiful weather, and loved the fantastic swimming stops in crystal-clear waters. The crew was exceptional throughout. A special thank you to Lola, our Tour Manager, for being so helpful, friendly, and informative. Linda and Ally always served us with a smile, while Nikolina looked after our cabin brilliantly. The food was excellent, so thanks to the chef and sous-chef. Captain Yure (George) navigated us safely and professionally, and the hardworking crew behind the scenes kept everything running smoothly. Their dedication made our cruise unforgettable. Thank you to the entire Olimp team. Croatia’s stunning coastline is truly spectacular, and we can’t wait to return.

This was one of the best holidays we have ever had and we have travelled a great deal. The cruise incorporated excursions and fit in plenty of relaxation time. Our daily swim stops were my favourite. Dino, our cruise director, provided us with all the information we needed and was such a character, making us all feel comfortable and relaxed. Dino was helpful and nothing was too hard for him to do or assist. The ship crew were fantastic. Our rooms were spotless, our food amazing and the girls who worked on the bar and serving were so polite and helpful. I can’t wait to do a cruise again!

The holiday was excellent. The boat was splendid, decks and cabins clean and tidy, crew expert and helpful, and food excellent with good variety and not too much local which we could get ashore. The helpful personal human contact from the UK office was much appreciated. Guide Vicko was charming, expert, and very helpful with recommendations and arrangements. He should be a little more aware of those who are less fit and techie; at Mljet to point out that the path had steep steps with dangerously poor surfaces; and in Brac he omitted that the good Navigare restaurant was not 'over there' across the haven, but at the end of it within the boatyard with no notice at the gate but a keep out sign, so we walked a long way looking for it. Some do not have whatsapp: basic arrangements etc could be printed or put on a notice board plus a list of guests and crew to help learn. Many thanks to all.

We had an amazing week with our friends on board the Esperanza under the expert guidance of Dino. We met new friends, had great experiences and learned so much about Croatia from the guided walks. Dino was a fantastic tour manager suggesting places to visit and where to eat on our stops. The highlight for me was the walking tour in Zadar with Paula- she enriched our experience with the history of the area. We thoroughly enjoyed the Captain’s dinner and the evening at the farm in Hvar, Many happy memories.
