Anima Maris
I did – and indeed we had an amazing cruise

Anima Maris
We went through the accounting with MARIO ( captain) everything was fine… he accounted for the spend and we did not have a problem with this.
The boat…. Was fantastic … the bedrooms / lounge and the top deck space was fantastic.
There were 10 guests and 9 crew and we never felt closed in or in each other’s space.
The boat was always clean and smart
The “toys “on the boat were very good.
Staff; Mario and his crew were very professional throughout the week and very smart.
From getting on the boat on the 2nd and leaving on the 9th we were made to feel special.
The staff could not do enough for you throughout the trip…. It was very obvious after a few day that the crew were very close and that teamwork was a key part of the trip…
I am struggling to find fault at this stage because they really looked after us

Anima Maris – 9 July 2022

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
Thank you so much, Eloise

Dear Captain and crew,
Words can not express how much we have enjoyed this trip. Everything about this cruise has been amazing!
The crew have made us feel so welcome and have gone above and beyond to make sure were looked after. Ivan and Grazia were the most amazing hosts – nothing were a problem and we felt like loyalty the whole time.
The captain took us on a journey into the most amazing towns and bays. Croatia is such a beautiful place! Being able to anchor in secluded bays was a real treat and the captain and crew navigated and handle the boat so expertly.
The water sports were so much fun – the kids had an absolute blast water skiing, jet skiing, sea bobing and swimming. Thanks to Bono, Steve and Andrea for looking of them.
Anima Maris is a truly special boat. The stewardess made sure our room were spotless each day and Tony was amazing. The food was truly outstanding!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
To celebrate own birthday on this beautiful boat is a dream come true and we have created so many lifelong memories.
