Sail Croatia Reviews 105

We were expecting to have a wonderful time because it’s a sailboat in Croatia. What could be better? But our trip went from wonderful to magical with our skipper, Bruno. He took the time to get to know our family so he could tailor the perfect itinerary for us. His knowledge of the islands, understanding of the weather, sailing/boating experience, and warm, friendly personality created an experience beyond our expectations. Bruno was the perfect mix of professional and personal, and our whole family enjoyed spending time with him. He took us to places well off the beaten path, guided us to many incredible landmarks, took us to extraordinary restaurants, and buoyed or anchored us in pristine, secluded coves. We will miss Bruno as much as we will miss beautiful Croatia! We can’t wait to share our experience with friends and family. We also can’t wait to come back and do it again! It was the best week of our lives! Highest recommendations possible.

While we were excited to go on our Sail Croatia trip, we didn't really know what to expect. We could never have imaged such a great week! Not only were we blessed with beautiful weather, but we had the most amazing group of people on our trip, all of whom we now consider friends. Everyone bonded and we had so much fun together! Ioanna, our cruise manager, could not have been better - she was knowledgeable, friendly, and had a great sense of humor. Ema and Pamela (bartenders and hostesses) went above and beyond, always with a smile. The food on board was amongst the best we had on our whole trip - outstanding chef who turned out top class meals in a tiny kitchen. Ella worked hard behind the scenes to make sure our cabin was spotless each morning, and the "sailors" always had a cloth in hand, cleaning the ship as they walked around. Our boat was beautiful - more classic and classy than some of the more glitzy boats. If I could give my review more than 5 stars I would!

Crew could not be more helpful.

To unpack your suitcase once while experiencing a new island everyday is a highlight! The Crew were very friendly & helpful, our Tour Guide was super helpful & flexible. When we asked Ana to organise a traditional Croatia Peka dinner on our last night in Dubrovnik, it was no trouble to her at all... and the experiencing was the best!
Other passengers were wonderful & fun to spend time with.
We have been recommending this cruise to our friends & families.

I can’t wait to go back!
Just the perfect amount of biking, sightseeing , swimming , and free time
The guides Dora and Sanja were AMAZING… you can request them. Definitely recommend an e bike even if you are in good shape
The food was plentiful fresh and homemade by George , a great chef. The crew was helpful all the time. Plenty of room on the boat. The Croatian people are super friendly and welcoming, and the country is spectacularly beautiful
BEST VACATION EVER!!!

Spent a week on the ship Eos on the cycling cruise. What a fabulous week we had. The scenery on the rides was spectacular. The planning of the daily itinerary was perfect, taking into account several factors such as the heat and safety at all times. Both guides (J and Louvre) were so experienced and knowledgeable. I had an insect sting which led to anaphylaxis and Louvre who is only quite young, acted quickly and calmly, ringing for an ambulance and dealing with the situation admirably. The food on board is excellent and the whole team from chefs to waiters were first class. The e-bikes are the top of the range so don't be nervous about coping with the hills. Once you get the hang of them it's a breeze. Just book it, you won't be sorry.

Although the destinations were amazing and beautiful, it’s really comes down to the staff and crew that made this trip so enjoyable and memorable! Our cruise director, Vedran, was exceptional, always on point with essential information and an endearing personality that put everyone at ease. The yacht crew were professional but also very friendly to all of the guests. The itinerary from Dubrovnik to Split provided an excellent opportunity to spend some extra time in both cities pre/post cruise. Thanks for the great experience. I have already referred Sail Croatia to two other families planning journeys to Croatia!

We had an incredible 7 days on the new boat Marvel! It was spacious and had everything we could possibly need to enjoy our week on the sea. The flotilla week was a perfect balance of swim stops, relaxation, exploring island towns and gearing up for a night out. All of the skippers, Mario, Matea and Nevis were fabulous - we loved our skippers meal & connecting with new people/skippers. Mario even had me driving the flotilla throughout the week which was pretty awesome to learn & an experience I’ll truly never forget! It was very sad to leave!

Had the most fabulous week onboard the Tempera. All the crew were helpful, and professional.
Our Cruise Manager Dino was outstanding always smiling, nothing was too much trouble, he was extremely knowledgeable and professional.
Our group was so sad to leave. 😃

Keep up the good work 👏

We loved our week onboard the Mali Ante with the welcoming crew! It was a good balance of riding and relaxing! Everything was great - the food was delicious, the bike rides were awesome and the facilities on the boat were clean snd comfortable . Thank you !

I had not booked anything like this before.

The whole week was amazing.

The group on board were fantastic. Everyone was positive throughout. We were there to enjoy every moment.

Having a positive group makes the holiday so good.

The Sail Croatia team were super. Srdan and Matilda were excellent representatives. Nothing was too much trouble.

The crew on board were brilliant. They kept us safe., fed, and the boat was very clean.

The meals on board were excellent. Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables . The Captains Dinner was a particular highlight.

A life affirming week. Spent with great people in amazing places.

The week absolutely flew by.

Cycling the islands of Croatia was a unique and wonderful way to see the islands. The ship, with only 32 riders plus crew, was awesome. We loved our crew, leaders and other like minded guests we got to know during the week. The daily cycling stops made it easy for all types of riders whether on an e-bike or conventional bike. Highly recommend!

The most amazing experience that surpassed all my expectations. The perfect mix of activity and relaxation. We cycled around stunning islands and moored at beautiful harbours. The food on board was excellent and the people I met were a joy. It felt like family by the end of the trip. Our cycled guide Josko was informed, professional, great fun and passionate about his country, giving us insights into the history of this incredible region along with great laughs, encouragement and always making us feel safe. The rest of the staff were superb also. Definitely a trip to be remembered for a long time to come, so sad that it’s over and planning the next one already 🙂

We just wrapped up the most incredible week sailing with Sail Croatia, and we truly had the time of our lives. From the moment we stepped onboard, the crew and fellow guests made the experience feel so special. Each day brought a new island to explore, and every destination was more breathtaking than the last.

A huge thank you to Vicko, our Sail Croatia representative, who went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. His friendliness and attention to detail truly enhanced the entire trip.

We also want to give a big shoutout to the Chef Arijan—every meal was absolutely delicious! The food was a highlight in itself, and we were so well fed the entire week.

It was a perfect mix of adventure, relaxation, and great company. Can’t recommend Sail Croatia enough—we’re already dreaming about the next trip!

With three 20-something-year-old kids beginning to go in different directions, we were looking to explore Croatia together and solidify a vacation full of lifelong family memories. I stumbled upon Sail Croatia as we looked for ways to see the coastal cities and islands. Boy, were we glad we did! An extra bonus was the ability to combine a bit of adventure and activity through a biking cruise.

I can't say enough positive things about our experience on Mali Luka and the wonderful crew and captain. Our leaders Mila and Mario, were full of knowledge, experience, hospitality, attention to detail, thoughtfulness, kindness and a passion for the beauty and history of their country.

The entire experience was top-notch. The meals and service on board were exceptional and delivered with a smile - always. We loved getting to know so many people from across the world with peace and trust and hospitality. We will forever cherish our memories and new friends from our Sail Croatia experience!

Great cruise with amazing people, food and fabulous destinations along the way. Klara our hostess was hilarious and so knowledgeable. Loved the swim stops every day.

The ship, the crew and the company were all superb. A beautiful ship, which was constantly being looked after by the enthusiastic crew, and a group of travellers from the far corners of the world who met and mixed throughout the week and who all became friends. Beautiful islands and interesting walks, led by Mate who was an excellent and experienced local guide and who gave us so much information about the history of each area. He really was an important part of the trip. And not to forget the breakfasts and lunches which were really good and gave us the calories to complete the walks and at a pace that suited all levels.
Altogether a memorable week and a great way to mark our Golden Wedding.

From the very first contact with Sail Croatia I felt confident that we were in good hands. The communication and information provided were excellent.
Our guides, Miranda, Lola and Matilda (in training), were just wonderful - patient, cheerful, friendly, efficient and always helpful. Their experience and efficiency meant we never had to worry about anything all week, just enjoy the beautiful places we visited. The cycle routes were great - a good variety of terrain and views and we visited so many truly stunning places.
I loved life on the ship, from the comfortable cosy, quiet (lower) cabin, the delicious vegan meals we were served, the ability to find quiet places to sit or sociable places to have company and a chat. Moving on every day to discover new places and having time to explore and plenty of free time to hike, swim, or just chill in a bar was perfect.
It was our first time in Croatia and this was a wonderful way to explore. Now looking at other trips Sail Croatia offer …

We were a group of twelve family and friends coming from all around the globe. Our two guides Mila and Lola were fantastic. Their knowledge and enthusiasm for their country was to be admired and their sense of humour and their laughter was infectious. We had a great time and I would recommend it to anyone.

This was one of my best vacations ever! A perfect combination of activity, connecting with nature, and relaxation. The itinerary (northern route from Split) was expertly selected and planned, the crew was friendly and attentive, and the guides were knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend!
