Zara

The crew were very qualified and instrumental in the quality of the experience. The recommendations and reservations for land excursions, restaurants and islands were spot on. The food and hospitality on the Zara was world class. We felt more like family than guests, royal family. Verdon and Vira are the best we could of asked for and will definitely request them on our next holiday.

The captain Vedran made all the difference. Not only was he a perfect pro but also created an incredibly friendly atmosphere and was always ready to help from booking restaurants to teaching efoil. The boat was amazing but Vedran made our trip so easy and unforgettable. The boat has a very high end feel and was extremely comfortable for our family including three kids.

We had the most amazing and memorable vacation aboard Zara. We cannot speak highly enough of Vedran, Vera, and the beautiful boat. We could write a book about everything that made this trip so special, but to summarize: the boat was top notch, spotless, with spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. Our family of six was incredibly comfortable.
Vedran is a remarkable captain, and his knowledge of the Croatian islands is outstanding. Our route from Split to Dubrovnik could not have been better. The activities he planned for our active family (kids are ages 21, 20, and 18) were so much fun! Adventure wasn't something we expected from a sailing trip, and since we love adventure, this was an incredible bonus. We will cherish these memories for a lifetime.
Vera's food exceeded anything we could have expected — even at a 5-star hotel. It was amazing what she pulled off each day for us.
We are so grateful for the opportunity to have spent a week with Vedran and Vera. They will forever be part of our family's cherished memories, ones we'll be talking about for years to come. 

We had the absolute best time on Zara and with Vedran and Vera. Your team was also instrumental in making our trip so memorable. We are headed to Italy for a week, so the vacationing continues! But, it will be hard to top our time in Croatia! Thanks again!

This was our first time to Croatia and our week on Zara with Vedran and Vera made it the most special family trip. Having little knowledge about the country and where we should go, we allowed Vedran to guide all of our choices- from where to eat to which islands to visit and when. Chat GPT has nothing on Vedran’s years of experience and elite expertise. He truly knows everyone and everything and we are so happy we trusted him to create the perfect itinerary. Vera is a master chef. We are still talking about her meals! By the second day, she really understood our group and what we liked. She has such talent and we were blessed to experience her cooking. Both Vedran and Vera are the best in the business. Zara is a gorgeous catamaran and it felt spacious and luxurious. We kept saying it was the prettiest boat in any marina or bay we found ourselves. The boat has ample space for relaxing and the bedrooms are very comfortable. We all slept so well on the beds. None of us wanted to leave Zara, Vedran, and Vera. We are already planning a return trip!

My expectations for our Croatian holiday were very high and I’m happy to report that every one of those expectations were exceeded in a big way! The Zara is a beautiful boat providing every luxury and comfort that I could ask for. It is truly a gorgeous catamaran that looks and feels brand new. The boat is wonderful but it was our captain, Vedran, and hostess, Vera, that really made our vacation special. It’s clear to me that their number one priority was to provide us with a relaxing and memorable holiday. Their experience and knowledge was at our disposal. We put our trust in them and they did not disappoint. Need a dinner reservation in a seaside village? Done. Want to ride electric bicycles through the countryside to a local winery? No problem. Looking for a local guide to explore the beautiful island of Vis? When do you want to go? Their real superpower is that they are always available but never intrusive. They anticipated our wishes, they covered all our logistics and they made it so easy to enjoy our vacation. Thank you Vedran and Vera!

I can’t say enough about how exceptional our experience was on Zara. From the warm welcome (including birthday balloons!), to all the wonderful meals, beautiful coves, great excursions, exceptional restaurant recommendations and great communication the whole way through. Zara is a very beautiful, comfortable and well equipped luxury boat, but it’s Vedran and Vera who made the experience so exceptional. Everything about our week exceeded all of our expectations and we are extremely grateful.

We had the best time aboard the beautiful Zara. We have never experienced anything so perfect. Zedran and Vera were absolutely amazing hosts. The stunning coves, beautiful beaches, and, of course, the incredible food made this trip unforgettable. They helped us navigate and plan the perfect itinerary, allowing us to make the most of every moment. This is a trip we will remember forever, and we cannot recommend it highly enough.

The Zara was such a beautiful, relaxing and extremely fun experience. The crew, Vera and Vedran were absolutely amazing! They always carried a positive mood and really made sure we had the best time exploring their beautiful country. The homemade food and the display Vera was able to set up was fine dining level experience. Vedrans knowledge and stories were amazing. The islands, bays, restaurants and other activities they organized were the perfect addition to an awesome experience. I would recommend anyone and everyone to book the Zara for their exploration of the Croatian islands.

Zara is a beautiful ship with ample spaces for gathering or finding a quiet spot; so many options available for sunbeds or couches, and comfortable touches like cotton blankets for chilly winds. Tin and Ema were a fabulous team. They work extremely well together, and worked tirelessly to keep the boat immaculate and us entertained and well fed. Tin paid detailed attention to our preferences and put together a great itinerary with beautiful stops, great restaurants and fun experiences. Ema put together amazing meals for us. She is a very talented cook and served us beautifully presented and delicious food. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know both Tin and Ema. They are not only great professional crew, but warm, caring people who enriched our experience visiting Croatia.

We have chartered before and Tin and Ema and the beautiful Zara elevated the experience to 12/10. We can’t say enough about them. Tin found us amazing locations everyday, made great restaurant recommendations and went above and beyond to make every day special. Ema made every meal beautiful and delicious and we all need a diet now! She is a fine dining restaurant level chef.

It was an amazing experience ! Everything was perfect. My family (3 kids 16-14 and 6) had a lovely time. The destination is really nice and Tin and Ema were very nice and professional. The food was delicious. They did everything they could to please us. We definitely recommend them !

We could not have been better looked after by Tin and Ema. They not only went above and beyond service levels but were such fun friendly company as well. We already miss them! Zara is a well equipped boat. Perhaps not the snappiest sailing yacht I’ve ever been on but extremely comfortable. Ideal having such a good rib/tender for waterskiing etc also great paddle boards and loved the water scooter. Tin and Ema are a huge credit to you and the yacht owner. They deserve to be very well rewarded.

 

It’s hard to rank our travels however we’ve been home a week and I can’t stop telling people this may have been the best vacation ever. It’s not just the location or the cat (yacht) but Tin and Ema made this adventure extra special. We left friends and more importantly our family will welcome them into our home any time they’re in the states. It was beyond an incredible trip.

You never expect your experience to turn out to be quite a good as the pictures. Our experience was better than we could have imagined. The boat, itself, is amazing. Beautiful, comfortable, stylish, and roomy. It was ideal for our two families to enjoy time together and apart. What outshined Zara, however, was Tin and Ema. Their level of service, friendliness, and skills (sailing, mooring, and cooking) were top-notch. We enjoyed the best food and wines on board. The wonderful restaurants that we experienced were still not a good as Ema's food and Tin's wine selections. Both were extremely accommodating with our group - three young adults (17, 18, and 19) and two couples. We plan to come back.

"Tin and Ema went above and beyond to make our experience amazing. We have all had multiple charter experiences, and they were above and beyond all others. They absolutely made our experience.Tin was absolutely awesome. Super flexible, superfun, and very good at his job. We couldn't have been in better hands and just loved hanging out with both him and Ema and having fun together. Best captain we have had.Ema was absolutely amazing. She was so attentive, an amazing chef. We had some of the best meals we have ever had, and she was super fun and flexible too. We were so lucky to have her on our crew. And more importantly we loved getting to know her and had so much fun together. Couldn't have asked for a better crew.The Zara was amazing. It's beyond what we have experienced before. So nice, perfect sun decks, so much space, rooms were so nice with good space size and storage. We would book again."

The trip itinerary and schedule were very well catered to our interests. Crew was super professional and great.

We absolutely loved our time on Zara. We have chartered five catamarans, and this was by far our favorite boat in terms of features and function. Captain Tin and first mate Emma were outstanding from Tin’s itinerary and shore dining and excursion arrangements, to Emma’s culinary delights and attentiveness to our needs. I highly recommend Zara, Tin and Emma, they made our trip to Croatia a wonderful and memorable experience.

The boat is wonderful, new Sunreef, great product, accommodation was great, ample room (4 guests), 8 guests crowded, 6 would be ok.
Marko and Iris lovely people, complement one another very well, very calm, very kind, enthusiastic about what they do, and conversing with the guests. Warmth continued to blossom as the trip evolved. Sad to leave!
Wines were great quality, crew continued to make recommendations. Iris passionate cook and naturally talented, stops were beautiful, preferred to stay at anchor and away from the crowds. 
Favourite place was Mljet National park in the channel, gorgeous, isolated. FABULOUS! Loved Stajun in Hvar - was very good! 360` Exceptional - one of the best culinary experiences in the last 5 years.
