Catamaran Marla

Dear Toni,

We truly loved our stay with you. MARLA made us fall in love with sailing. Thank you so much for your hospitality you truly went above and beyond to give us the best experience! These 5 days were the highlight of our honeymoon! It was our first time on a boat but it will definitely not be our last given how amazing you made our trip.

Catching squid, SUP instructor, private guide and professional drone photographer. Toni you are more than 'just' an excellent skipper!
Thank you so much!

Heading into our family trip to Croatia, I came reluctantly as I have had a long-standing fear of water and boats. Our captain Toni, planned a trip respecting my anxieties and carefully won me over with respect for his skills and talents as a captain, seaman and as a person.

Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by Toni and Nicole and were advised that our safety and comfort were at the forefront of the journey. We were astonished at the crews attention to detail but also how they prioritise the comfort of their guests. We have been wined and dined with exceptional meals. The culinary skills of Nicole paired with Toni's infusion of Croatia delights truly exceeded expectations and left us wanting more.

As a family we have felt that the skilled duo have managed to create the most amazing family memories for us and we are truly grateful for having the experience of meeting and travelling with both Toni and Nicole- both exceptionally talented people. They have even managed to removed some of my deep rooted fears of boating!

After two years of Covid, this trip was just the perfect therapy. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We would like to thank the captain and the whole crew for an amazing week!

We discovered many beautiful Croatian islands, had GREAT food, a LOT of drinks and most importantly, a lot of fun! The service on board was highly efficient but also very friendly at all times.

Thank you again for everything and please forgive us for our crappy Croatian pronunciation!

We originally booked our voyage for June of 2020, but Covid pushed our plans aside for two years. Our guest list was originally ten, but life's ordinary mishaps reduced our total to six. After all of the changes in plans, I can't imagine our adventure in any other way!
The crew (Nikola, Karlo, Marco and Ivica) welcomed us and took care of us... eventually charmed us. We saw and swam (kayaked, jet-skied, paddle boarded) in the best coves, relaxed, laughed, played and had the loveliest family vacation ever... except for when Carlos got stung by a spider fish and needed immediate medical attention by the crew but they knew just what do to. They took total care of Carlos (shout out to Ana/ Ivica). We LOVED every minute of it! They even decorated with balloons and made a cake for Dani's 18th birthday.
Thanks so much for everything! Fingers crossed we can return again soon.

Yacht Charter Croatia with San Limi

San LiMi

Dear Sasha,

All three couples in our party agreed that this was truly a “trip of a lifetime.” While we greatly enjoyed our days on shore in Split, Dubrovnik, and in London, there is no doubt that the highlight of our thirteen day vacation was the week spent aboard the San Limi, cruising — in style — the spectacular coast and islands of Dalmatia.

The comfort, class, beauty and grace of the yacht was exceeded only by the service and smiles of her entire crew.

Captain Ivo was constantly diligent yet managed to find time to visit with us and answer our many questions about the vessel, the Adriatic, and his beloved Croatia.

Tino and Spiro, our first mate and engineer, always performed their many tasks with happy smiles and were a delight to be around. Josep, our chef, constantly amazed us with beautifully presented and delicious meals, all while also performing his other ship duties with the obvious skills of a seasoned crewman. All three of those young men have an exceptional work ethic and bright futures wherever life takes them.

Our hostess, Ivana, was the perfect example of what professional hospitality service should be. Regardless of any request we made, or change of plans we suggested, her first response was always the phrase “No problem,” spoken with a sincere smile. She wore many hats (concierge, food server, bartender, provisions shopper, travel advisor, housekeeper, laundress, sommelier, and ship accountant) and excelled in all of them. On top of all that, she was a joy to be around. We commented among ourselves that it was a shame we are all now retired because she would have been a “sure hire” in any of the businesses we once ran!

We began our cruise immediately impressed by the talents and kindness of the entire crew. But by the end of the week, we also considered them all to be our friends. Turns out, that gift of friendship is the best “souvenir” we brought back home from our trip.

Our thanks, as well, to you Sasha for your professionalism and for putting up with my many questions and emails.

Please pass these comments along to the owner of San Limi and to our friends, the crew. On behalf of my entire group of happy travelers, thanks to all for a fabulous week!

Sincerely,
David, Tina, Keith, Nancy, Blake & Susan

Oh how we loved our trip! Just amazing. What beautiful parts of the world! In fact, we are discussing doing Croatia next year ... still a few moving variables but essentially we'd be looking for a Gulet same time frame ...

We are hooked on charters! What a wonderful way to spend time with family. Everyone LOVED it ... perfect mix of exploration, little towns, gorgeous coves, chill time.

… Turkey absolutely blew us away! That was our favourite - the water, the calmness, the gulet, the sheer beauty at every turn was unexpected ... and then lunch at Manzara in Sogut - HOLY MOLY! WHAT a gem! What a surprise! All felt so exotic. The crew was exceptional - PARTICULARLY the young chef. Outstanding. The captain was genius.
It was truly and A++ experience - the proof in that we want to do another trip!

Thank you so much for organizing for us - just exceptional.

Dear Sanja & Zoki,
Thank you for your gracious, splendid hospitality on this incredible adventure!

Every detail was perfect... The intimate atmosphere and attention to detail was really amazing. Your passion for "feed us" was evident in the "five star plus" cuisine you prepared in every meal. The tastes were a simphony of ingredients combined with hard work and love with outstanding flavours of your beloved culture.
We appreciated you including us into the details of the itinerary at every step and you were able to custom tailor everything for everyone's satisfaction-were the beautiful Mala and both you and Zoki's teamwork to create and adventure cruise of luxury for a lifetime.
Many thank for everything!
Maria and David
Please come visit us in Boston.

P. S. Loved your "lessons" in history and culture

Dear Zoki and Sanja,
Thank you for the most incredible trip through the islands of Croatia as this was my 50th birthday trip (2 years late, due to Covid). We had great anticipation about the week.
The entire experience far exceeded our expectations in every way. The coastline, towns and history of the area is so rich we could spend a summer here and just scratch the surface.

Your hospitality and professionalism is of the highest caliber. We could not have asked for more. Thank you, Thank you!

P.s. Come see us in Hawaii.

Thank you so much!

We finally made it to Italy and Croatia after two years of covid delays. Our week aboard Catamaran Mala was the highlight! Sanja and Zoki are wonderful hosts, whose enthusiasm for their beautiful country was a joy to experience.
Sanja and Zoki are very skilled professional sailors who have thorough local knowledge of the water, the weather and the many islands of Croatia. We always felt safe aboard their beautiful boat.
Every stop on our voyage from Split to Dubrovnik was interesting, fun and delicious thanks to the excellent guides Sanja and Zoki arranged, and thanks to their recommendations for activities and restaurants.
Sanja is a galley magician! Every meal aboard Mala was fantastic! She expertly prepared a wide variety of fresh, delicious dishes, and presented the meals beautifully. We looked forward to see what the magic was for each meal, and we were never disappointed.
We would highly recommend Catamaran Mala. You will see Croatia from a unique perspective unlike any other cruise.

Our one week sail with Sanja and Zoki was spectacular and far exceeded our expectations. The boat was comfortable, Sanja’s cooking was super, their hospitality exceptional. As the boat owners they kept the boat in tip top condition and tried and managed to please us in every way. Not only do I recommend Cat Mala but I look forward to rebooking soon! It was the trip of a lifetime Croatia coast is magnificent!

We had a fantastic week on the Catamaran Mala. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Zoki and Sanja were incredible hosts. The boat is spacious, comfortable, super clean and absolutely delightful. Zoki is a master captain. He knew just where to go and maneuvered us into spectacular private coves with gorgeous water and amazing views. Sanja’s cooking and presentation were fantastic! She addressed our needs and wants and always prepared delicious meals. Their dining recommendations on land where perfect. It was one of the most memorable and relaxing trips we have ever taken. Croatia is a beautiful country. We will be back. If you are thinking of booking on the Mala, do not hesitate. It was a fantastic experience.

Hi Sasha

Everything was very good…. Family members are also part of the crew so you feel like home with them.
The chef offered lots of different kinds of food - we couldn’t eat it was that much!
The captain didn’t refrain from holding the air conditioning on all the time - a big plus point!

Thank you very much

Look forward to next year adventures !

Sasha,

Good afternoon. Eva, Jon, Brig, and I wanted to drop you a note and tell you and Shelby what a wonderful time we’re having on San Limi.

What a beautiful yacht and exceptional crew. We have done some wonderful sailing, cruising, eating and enjoy the water toys.

Please pass our thanks on to the owners and our compliments as well. Finally we greatly appreciated being able to get on the yatch Friday as well. It was wonderful to not have to move from a hotel to Sam Lini Saturday morning. We are very much looking forward to the rest of our cruise.

Al the best.

Great Charter!

Hi Sasha - I just wanted to say how amazing our trip was on the Perla. Capt Karlo and crew were amazing and we could not be more happy with the boat, route etc. We already planning on doing a week on a gulet in Turkey with same 3 families in late June 2023….let me know when we need to start looking at that. We also def want to do more of Croatia but will save that for another time.

Many thanks for organizing our best family vacay ever.

All the best

Good afternoon Sasha.

I hope this email finds you well. It has been three weeks since we’ve arrived back home from our holiday and we continue to think about it every day. Croatia was simply amazing; the boat, the crew, the people and the culture. Thank you for all your efforts in making it a truly memorable experience.

Many thanks again.

Best,

We had the a wonderful holiday aboard catamaran Mala. The yacht is stunning, beautifully presented with some gorgeous little touches. Both Zoki and Sanja are wonderful hosts. We felt completely relaxed , even during some very stormy weather due to Captain Zoki’s experience at the helm and knowledge of the coast . Sanja’s cooking is amazing I’ve got a lot to live up to now we are home ! Our swim stops and the islands we visited were perfect and it was great to have recommendations for restaurants, night life for our teens and sightseeing from such a knowledgeable source .
We will definitely be booking again for next year and will absolutely be using Highpoint . Thank you to you Eva , everything was perfectly organised, nothing was too much trouble and again we had complete confidence that all would run smoothly. We will be recommending you to all of our friends!
With thanks and very best wishes

Dear SAN LIMI,

It has been simply spectacular to be on board with you, dear crew!

The yacht is very comfortable, nicely decorated and well kept, you did not spare any effort to make our cruise a memorable one - thank you so much!

Love, Ana & Kristian (Switzerland)

I want to express my sincere appreciation for your great work for this booking on SAN LiMi for our dearest clients.

Starting from the initial offer which was accurate, clear and all the useful information was presented in the best way from the very beginning, then during the booking process and finally during the charter when both you and the Captain were at our disposal to keep us informed of how the charter was going.
Your personal commitment was priceless as the Captain was aware of every detail concerning the preferences of this group and along with the crew went on and beyond! Our clients got the most of the beautiful Croatian landscapes, enjoyed the hospitality and returned back home with unforgettable memories mentioning this was an amazing trip as they were excited not only by the beauties of Adriatic Sea but also by the service that was provided.

Thank you again for the excellent cooperation and taking such a good care of these guests! I will definitely have SAN LiMi in my mind for future inquiries and wish to cooperate with you again soon!

My best,
