Anima Maris-Captain + Crew

You have created a lasting, treasured experience and memory for our family. Each person has memories that are their favorite and no person had a single bad moment. It was the crew who made that possible. Swimming, skiing, dancing – the crew kept the kids and young adults busy and worn out. Perfect for Bunny and me.

Thank you so much, Henry

Luis and family

We feel very blessed to have had you for our crew onboard the Allure E.

The week has truly been sensational on every level. Words don’t really describe the adventure we have had, you all work in a truly special part of the world.

Heartfelt thanks to you all,

Clayton & Kylie

There isn’t a better way to visit Croatia and experience each of the islands than traveling on Dalmatino. The boat was stunning. The boat crew had the best service I have ever experienced. This trip will be very hard to top.
We were directed to the best experiences on each island, food was absolutely delicious and beautiful at the same time. I would highly recommend this yacht and staff to anyone who has the opportunity to travel to Croatia!

I would give a six star as a vacation spot and a 100% satisfying rate. The staff was so helpful and so so nice.
Food was over the top in presentation, variety and was delicious. The Captain chose just a perfect route through the islands, the right amount of village time as play time. I would do this trip every year on Dalmatino!

Susan

This holiday has been one of the best experiences we’ve ever had. A very caring crew, all with kind hearts. Giving us the best hospitality ever. I’m blessed to have been on this boat where we felt safe + always full. Thank you so much allure! You the best. B

Trip of a lifetime! The boat is gorgeous, the food was amazing, the scenery & water were incredible and the staff-crew….what can I say?! You were friendly, fun, and took the many challenges of our group in stride (covid+,stomach viruses, etc.!) with a smile and a willingness to do what we needed to have an amzing week. (I mean…how many groups requested 5 full dinnera and 5 bowls of plain white rice? 😛 ) It was such a special week for us to spend with our adult children & our friends and it was made even better by the wonderful & attentive service we recived at every turn. I’m not sure we’ll manage to get the whole family over here again, but Jim & I are sure going to try! Thank you again for everything-you all work very hard and it shows and is very much appreciated! XXOO

Until next time….

From the moment I stepped on this boat I was greated with smiles & genuine care. I have never had an experience such as this where I was treated like I was special. Each and every one of you made this week memorable and I will never forget it. Matea made sure our thunderstorm of a room was always inviting and shared her last hairtie with me so I could enjoy the water. Keke made sure I always had milk with dessert before even asking and kept us all in a good mood. To the chef who gave us a personal tour of the bars so we could experience the true culture. Rocco despite us leasing hi min the beginning made sure to act professional as always. Stipe on our day to the market gave us the submarine tunnel. Last but not leats, the Captain who ensure no matter the weather there was always a plan for fun in place. Overall, I wish I couls stay with you forever and I have never had such a wonderful time. Sincerly and truly, thank you from the botton of my heart. There i san open door for any of you at my home in Los Angeles. I hope to see you again one day. SS

I have no words to explain the marvelous adventure we have sailed with Captain Tom. It has been the upmost pleasure to embark in this journey around the Adriatic Sea with such a wonderful crew. Ivana is super attentive and dedicated to fulfilling the needs of all my fellow travelers who have stepped aboard Captain Tom’s deck. The sights seen could never be converged in the slightest. The sea was magical. The food was amazing. Everyday was a delight to my mouth. We cannot wait to come back next year. Thank you to the entire crew.

Carefree and a wonderful cruise down the Adriatic
Mastercharter was the best Croatian travel agency I have dealt with in the last ten years. Ivana, Mirna and Mate are devout professionals who will tender to your every need. Ask a question and you will get an answer momentarily, if one of them is busy one of the others will respond. No detail is overlooked and everything is done to your satisfaction. They stay true to their motto which says “Everything is possible for one who believes”.

I wanted to charter a gulet for a family cruise and for my particular needs they suggested the Altair which turned out to be the perfect choice. The name Altair is derived from the bright star, aka Alpha Aquilae, which shines as the brightest star in the constellation Aquila the Eagle. It describes this gullet perfectly; it is beautiful, clean and well maintained. The crew is a family run affair; Captain Dare is a capable sailor and a wonderful host. His Dad Duje is a fantastic cook and a Captain in his own right and Dare’s sister Luce (Lucy) is a wonderful hostess and a do everything gal who will attend to your every need. Also there is Lovro, a very capable sailor who makes sure that the boat is securely tied, he will help you with all the heavy lifting, will provide you with the swimming toys once you are in the water and will watch over you while you swim.

The cruise down the Jadran (Adriatic Sea) was absolutely fantastic. We were in and out of secluded coves for swimming in the crystal clear water during the day and visited famous towns like Hvar, Korčula, Polače, Ston and others in the evening. It was a perfect combination of rest, relaxation and sightseeing.

I would like to take this opportnity to thank the crew once more for making me and my family feel like we were a part of their family and for providing us with a carefree, restfull, exciting and wonderfull experience. Special thanks goes out to my new friend Duje Junior (Dare’s son) who made our trip that much more enjoyable, this is from his new friend Brankec.

We had the Best time in Corsario, aside from the amaizing places and smooth ride, the crew was so warm, dedicated and helpfull.
Stand up padlle, water motor rides, snorkeling, biking and awesome more experiences we lived in this boat.
Thank to this boat and the crew we could had an inforgivable family time!
I hope we can come back and finish our travesy through Croatia. See you soon!!!

Global Rating: 5/5 (Excellent)

Brilliant

We travel often and far, and we have been around the world and had amazing experiences. But our vacation on the Romanca, chartered via MasterCharter, was truly unrivaled! Airline travel these days can be beyond hectic, and our vacation seemed to get off to the wrong start when the airline lost our luggage. Ivana (Mastercharter) and Andrea (owner of the Romanca) arranged a speedboat to take a passenger to get medication that had gone missing with the bags and PERSONALLY tracked our luggage down and had it hand-delivered to the boat as we were eating breakfast under sail. Additionally, a member of our party had a bicycle accident, and Marin (Romanca’s captain) was on location in minutes with the town’s doctor and sat with us through the process of going to the hospital and getting a few stitches, then offered to buy the injured person an ice cream, (because everyone knows when you get stitches, you get an ice cream). Despite our two mishaps, all 15 of our party fell madly in love with Croatia, the Adriatic, MasterCharter, and most specifically the Romanca and its crew. The Romanca is by far the prettiest wooden gullet on the Adriatic; you cannot help but share the pride of her crew as she sails into port. You can tie her up next to the largest, newest ship in any marina, and know you are the one privileged enough to call the Romanca home. Valentina and Mario knew everyone by name on the first morning and never forgot our food or drink preferences — my latte was being made before I could sit at the Romanca’s massive table. Victor is a world class chef and a true artist who goes out of his way to please everyone. He woke up in the middle of the night to feed the three of us who waited for the doctor to finish his work on our patient, and we got a beautiful steak with rice and salad, totally unexpected and above and beyond. Ivan, the first mate, went out with several of our younger “sailors” (as per our request) when they wanted to go to a club at midnight. He watched over us and protected us like family, even at the sacrifice of his night’s sleep. And Marin navigated us through it all, recommending phenomonal wineries, restaurants, and excursions on the islands. I’m not prone to write reviews, or be loquacious, but for this trip, I must! These people are so special and amazing; they find a magical way of outshining the scenery. That said, Croatia and her islands are not to be missed, their beauty is unparalleled and the experience is unmatched. Do yourself a favor, spend a week on the Romanca… just don’t book the weeks we want, we will be back!

KUDO’S Will never forget you all and the experience you gave us. Thank you immensely!And loved the truffles!

We could not not have loved this trip more. It was exactly what I hoped to celebrate Rich’s big birthday to celebrate with those we love most. Each and everyone of you is thoughtful, genuine and with meticulous attention to service and detail. When they told me to pick Dalmatino from the yacht company they have the best Captain & Crew they were 100% correct. Incredible in every way w/memories to last a lifetime.You have made this the trip of a lifetime! These memories will be cherished forever!

Thank you for the wonderful week with fun guys. From the wonderful lunch at the CIPRIANI in Venice to the week-long sailing along the Croatian coastline—PRICELESS.

We had so much fun, so much wine so much amazing food but above all such amazing conversions and laughs.THANK YOU!

As first time sailors” we have been totally spoilt! Not only by the fabulous boat but the crew+staff who looked after our every need during our week. Marco who seems to be there 24/7 ready for endless drinks+food. Chef ”knocked it out of the park”every meal time he presented 5* food+presentation always.

We’ve fallen in love with the Croatian coast+wish to explore more. Thank you Dalmatino…

Dearest Alba and Crew! It has a week from haven. thank you for treating us like royalty and forcing us to relax with your hospitality. we appreciated and enjoyed every moment. it has been beautiful. Slatko, will never forget the food!! 

A great week in Dalmatia on “alba”!! What a brilliant way to experience the jewels of the area & the awesome villages & people of Croatia. Mirko, you head a great team in an aspects & me as a sailor… i couldn’t have a more relaxing experience.

Captain Luka was very professional and helpful, his brother Damir and the chef were excellent too. I think the Steward, Ivor was a bit out of his depth as he was really a deck hand that had stood in for a Stewardess from what we learned, and whilst he tried hard, my only recommendation would be that an experienced stewardess would have added polish to the whole drinking and dining experience.

We are all flying home after a very enjoyable 7 day cruise on Alba. It was everything we had hoped, and the crew was remarkable. We have nothing but kinds things to say, and I would charter from you again. We have friends that want to do the same charter and I will refer to you.

Dear friends, thank you for this amazing experience. Wish you the best on your wedding! Your country is a dream and you made us feel part of it and your family! Hope to come back soon! L,L & M
