Sail Croatia is set to significantly enhance its Elegance fleet by 2025, introducing two new luxurious ships to its lineup.
- The Romantic Star, a 36-berth ship built in 2016, will be a new addition, offering 26 unique itineraries.
- Katarina, transitioning from an Explorer to Elegance ship, underscores Sail Croatia’s commitment to luxury travel.
- With these additions, the Elegance fleet will grow to five ships, marking a 60% increase in departures.
- Sail Croatia continues to focus on couples and mature travellers seeking authentic Croatian experiences.
Sail Croatia’s strategic expansion of its Elegance fleet reflects a robust commitment to enhancing luxury cruising experiences in the Adriatic region by 2025. The introduction of the Romantic Star and the transition of the Katarina underscore this ambitious initiative.
The Romantic Star, accommodating 36 passengers in ensuite cabins, offers state-of-the-art amenities including a jacuzzi and multiple sun lounge areas. This 47-metre vessel is poised to deliver top-tier hospitality through its 26 scheduled departures, featuring diverse itineraries such as wine cruises and world heritage tours between Split and Dubrovnik, indicating a refined focus on thematic travel experiences.
The Katarina has proven its prowess and popularity in its inaugural season within the Sail Croatia Explorer category. This ship’s integration into the Elegance fleet is aimed at providing a seamless transition from exploration to luxury, promising sophisticated furnishings and exemplary customer service, attributes that have already garnered acclaim from cruisers.
These developments result in a 60% increase to 119 Elegance Cruise departures in 2025 compared to the previous year, a statistic that not only highlights operational growth but also a response to growing market demands for exclusive and experiential travel services.
Sail Croatia’s co-founder, Helle Seuren, emphasised the attractions for couples and mature travellers in exploring the genuine essence of Croatian coastal life through these cruises. This demographic focus aligns with broader trends favouring personalised, intimate travel experiences over larger, more traditional cruise offerings.
Through bolstering its fleet, Sail Croatia is positioned to redefine luxurious travel along the Adriatic, appealing to discerning travellers seeking exceptional maritime adventures.
