You must book the MS Desire and hopefully you get Lejla from Kompass!
This was a once in a lifetime trip. The staff were phenomenal and the food- WOW! It was the perfect balance of relaxation and action. Having the evenings free in port to go out for dinner was lovely that way we felt we were able to experience more of the towns we stopped at. The activities were perfectly organized and effortless. The ship was new and everything was clean and luxurious. We went in early October but were able to swim and enjoy the hot tub and the full itinerary.

We had an excellent experience on our Croatian cruise.
Our cruise manager was incredibly knowledgable and he did an excellent job setting us up with interesting tours and fun activities. The chef on our ship was amazing. Our favorite activities on the cruise were probably visiting Mljet National Park and Kirka National Park. We also really enjoyed visiting the cities of Dubrovnik, Hvar, and Korčula.
- Recommended for
- The three best things about our cruise were: 1) The name of the ship we were on was the Desire. It was clean and updated and our room was comfortable. 2) The crew was very friendly and the chef was incredible. 3) We loved the format of the cruise. We were able to spend enough time in each port to explore the town we were in and get dinner or go out for drinks.

Excelent Small cruise with Desire, a dream.
Excellent experience of the Small Cruise Desire and the professionalism of its manager Lejla, although none of them speak French, Spanish or German as advertised on LiveAboard. Take this into account when choosing a boat.

It was a fantastic cruise and not the last time on a small ship.
From the arrival to the airport transfer on the day of departure, everything was perfect, exceeding all our expectations. We arrived very early and could not yet move into the cabin, but our luggage was still accepted and our guide gave us tips on how to bridge the time until embarkation. The entire crew just very friendly and helpful. International guests who grew into a small family in a short time. Every swim-stop in front of an excellent backdrop, the excursions very well thought out. In the evening, the possibility to explore the harbour including the old town on your own or just for a glass of wine - good restaurant recommendations from our guide.
