HOTEL SELECTION

Where are we staying?

We want to prioritize your comfort and convenience to provide you with the best group travel experience, so we have chosen a beautiful 5-star hotel in Split to begin our journey before we embark on a week-long adventure on a private yacht.

Hotel Ambasador is a sleek, contemporary five‑star hotel on Split’s waterfront promenade with a rooftop swimming pool, pool bar and a Mediterranean restaurant and spa, all within steps of the Riva and Diocletian’s Palace- 1 night

Our private yacht charter is a beautifully crafted 32-meter gulet yacht offering a stylish and relaxed way to explore the Croatian coast. With 6 spacious ensuite cabins, polished mahogany interiors, a hot tub and expansive outdoor decks, it’s perfect for both comfort and connection. The charter includes a professional four-person crew and chef, air-conditioning, 24/7 generator, wifi and water toys plus all-inclusive drinks and half-board dining for two meals a day. Guests can enjoy fresh Mediterranean meals onboard, unwind on sun-drenched decks, and take in the Adriatic scenery in effortless style – 7 nights

Yacht Accommodations: Please be aware that the rooms & en-suite bathrooms on the yacht are smaller than a hotel room would be. To make the most of the space – unpacking your suitcase for the week will be ideal. There are plenty of spacious gathering areas on the yacht to relax and we will be spending a lot of time on land exploring the small coastal towns of Croatia.

ACTIVITIES & EXCURSIONS

What are we doing?

We have crafted a balanced itinerary for you to experience the best of Croatia by yacht. We’ll spend most of our days island hopping, sailing, swimming & exploring along the Croatian coastline. This trip is the best of both worlds: plenty of beach days with a mix of activities to experience Croatia’s history & culture, local food, & nightlife. As this trip is primarily a yacht charter, the daily schedule is subject to change dependent on sailing conditions.
