Faqs

  • Split: Standard boats will have sun-decks so you can soak up the sunlight. Premium boats have larger sundecks with a mid-weekly linen service. And as the name suggests - Luxe boats have bigger rooms and a special food menu.
  • Split: Yep, all bedrooms on the boats have air conditioning. They’re small and fit perfectly into the cabins (and work great for a quick cool down).
  • Split: All rooms are fitted with an ensuite. The premium boats tend to have bigger bathrooms.
  • Split: If the weather gods are on our side (which they usually are), we should be docking back up in Split at 3PM.
  • Split: Yes, mostly. If you’ve booked together with a partner or a friend on a twin-share trip, you’ll be roomed together. If you’re travelling with your friends on a multi-share trip, and have made separate bookings, don’t forget to tell our 24/7 support team that you’re travelling together. The Trip Manager will always try their best to put you in the same room. But please note, this can’t always be guaranteed.
