There is the choice of lower, main, or upper deck cabins, double or twin beds, air-conditioning, LCD TV, and en-suite bathrooms. Since the Arca has more than one bedding option, please note your preference in the special request field. Social areas include the beautiful indoor dining room with panoramic windows, a stunning al-fresco terrace, perfect for enjoying a cocktail in the late afternoon sun, and a huge partially covered sundeck with comfortable loungers.

Cruises aboard the Arca yacht explore the glistening jewels of the Adriatic Sea. Stop off at Hvar, Bol, Korcula, and Mljet to visit the famous salt lakes, walk along pristine sandy beaches, marvel at the old churches and monasteries, and sample the local cuisine. Days start with a hearty buffet breakfast, followed by island hopping and lunch, and evenings are spent at leisure wandering the old towns, mingling with the locals, and enjoying the gastronomic delights.

Much better than I expected with small ship.

I really enjoyed the causual atmosphere and easy access to the shore excursions, especially the national parks and walking through the mideval castles, and streets with so many wonderful sidewalk cafes.

Excellent trip aboard the Arca yacht

The beautiful cities of Split and Dubrovnik. The views while sailing to each port were beautiful and peaceful. The yacht was very comfortable for traveling on even rough seas.

Great in-depth Croatian cruise with swim stops

Liked amount of time off the ship w overnight docking, allows enough time to tour, have dinner and see town at night without being too rushed. Liked daily swim stops. Need to add Dubrovnik stop or end of trip for optional hotel stay. Director is excellent. Would have liked an add-on ($) option to daily walking city tour. 1-hr city walk + addition location, beach stop, palace, garden, kayaking tour, bikes, bus, sunset catamaran sail. One or two more onboard activities, cooking demonstration, wine tasting or mixology lesson, paint and sip or cocktail ($) /appetizer hour to get passengers together socializing. Boat and room are modern and very clean thanks to crew. Mattresses are extremely hard, uncomfortable. Towels are poor quality, rough, over bleached. Make a huge difference to invest in better bedding and towels. A little more variety in breakfast and lunch. Maybe rotate crepes, pancakes, waffles, potatoes to just eggs. Leave croissants and pastries out for a few hours in case you want to skip the large breakfast or eat smaller like 1hr later. Lunch/dinner served a lot of fish. Maybe a second meat, more variety or second side choice or Mexican, Asian, antipasto bar etc. night to change it up? Croatia’s food is not varied, when you serve local food identical to off-boat dinner options it’s a little redundant.

Blissfull Croatia

The best way to see the Croatian Coast is on a small cruiseship and we would strongly recommend the Arca to our friends and family. Our cabin, no.6, was very comfortable, good beds and a spacious bathroom, for the size of the ship. The food, breakfast and lunch, was plenty and extremely varried and tasty. The daily excusions were great with overall good guides, everything was well coordinated, which made them a stressfree experience. We will do it again!

Irvana our Cruise Manager was fantastic.. The daily activities were very well managed, incl. the daily swim. Our fellow passengers from all over world, became family friends in the end.
