We had the BEST time on the charter, we loved Captain Niksa and his crew. Thank you for checking in with us. The Boat/amenities what we loved about the boat was the layout and it's expansiveness, and how thoughtfully every detail was considered for guests. It was the most quiet and solid boat we've ever been on, there was very little rocking even on windy or stormy days. The layout of the boat was very accommodating for a party of our size-- many boats don't have a lot of uncovered deck space, to hang out; we really loved the top level where there was room to lay out, everyone enjoyed the hottub and we also love the front area where we watched movies at night, or had a quiet space to be away from a crowd if you wanted to be. And of course enjoyed the dining area where we had our meals and played lots of games. Also, it was the first boat we've chartered/been on where we actually made use of the interior salon-- it actually felt like a natural extension of the exterior. We all felt like we had lots of room for our things as well as for ourselves-- we never felt crowded. We also loved the toys- we made good use of the seabobs and paddle boards every day, and also we got in some wakeboarding and waterskiing. The Crew: The crew was very professional and always attuned to our needs. We also felt in very good hands from a navigation and safety perspective in all circumstances. Captain Niksa's knowledge of the all cruising areas (from the best places to anchor, to spend the night and have the best views, to where to go for lunch, to which areas to avoid (like for jellyfish for example) added to the overall joy of the trip! Niksa was also on top of the weather-- he was prepared in advance for every contingency. His workmanship and care for his boat and crew were evident in all his actions. The crew were very pleasant, responsive, and attentive without being intrusive. Our cabins were spotless, laundry was perfectly done without incident. We all loved the laundry detergent it smelled so good! Areas Cruised: Thumbs up to areas cruised. We had a mix of smaller and bigger islands, with visits to quaint little towns. Again, Captain Niksa's knowledge of these areas, and where to go, where to eat off the boat etc.-- all great. Food: Breakfasts were a nice mix of yogurts, croissants/breads, prosciutto, fruit platters, jams and local honeys, local specialties, your choice of eggs as you liked, and generally pancakes or waffles. Breakfasts were a universal thumbs up. Lunches: always a mix of grilled fish and some kind of meat, along with green salad and another salad of couscous or quinoa and vegetables and a dessert. We loved the chef's salad dressings, and his desserts were a huge hit. The fish was always fresh and simply prepared (which we liked). One day we had tuna poke bowls (or chicken if you didn't like fish), and that was a huge hit with everyone. Dinners: again, we liked to eat simply prepared fishes/meats, with vegetables /salads. Most meals we ate family style as we liked, and finished off with delicious desserts. We loved every minute on Acapella, and have already recommended the boat to our friends… What made the trip so special was not only the boat itself -- great boat for a group of mixed ages-- something for everyone -- but the crew, and the charming and endearing Captain Niksa.

I’ve just arrived back in Dubrovnik with my family, having left Captain Niksa and the Acapella and Amy earlier today in Zadar. I wanted you to know how great the entire experience was. Both boats, their captains and the crews exceeded all my expectations. The two boats worked beautifully in tandem, and every member of my family said it was the best vacation they’d ever had. The Acapella is an extraordinary yacht, designed with every possible luxury and convenience you can imagine. The yacht was only surpassed by the quality and performance of the captain and the crew. I will unhesitatingly recommend it to all my friends. From beginning to end, the trip has been a seamless joy. It’s going to be impossible for any future family vacation to live up to this one.

Some Broker Feedback from May 2022 Fam Trip
“I spent a wonderful week onboard ACAPELLA hosted by the excellent Captain Niksa who was certainly the best guide to discover Croatia. His knowledge of the region is second to none and he found the most ideal anchorages throughout our time onboard. The yacht is very comfortable and in perfect condition, no detail has been spared. Having 3 large master cabins is such a great selling point and the extensive sun deck was a wonderful area for relaxation and entertaining. Chef Tihomir provided us with a wonderful gastronomic experience and the whole crew were so attentive and accommodating. This yacht surpassed all of my expectations and I would have no hesitations in proposing her for any prospective enquiries.” “ACAPELLA was no doubt the star of the fleet, and one of the nicest looking yachts based in Croatia. She has beautiful lines and a good charter layout, and is full of clever additions and features, having clearly been built by an experienced owner with guest comfort in mind. Captain Niksa is the perfect charter captain – passing on his charm, confidence and passion to the rest of the crew as well, making for a great atmosphere onboard. The crew are all efficient, welcoming and pleasant and clearly know the area very well and are keen to share this with guests. Whether exploring with the (very comfortable) tender or enjoying local products expertly cooked by chef Tihomir, we were extremely well looked after, and will highly recommend the yacht.” “ACAPELLA is exactly what our clients are looking for at this level and the crew’s enthusiasm, professionalism and charism is a huge selling point. The yacht is super spacious and comfortable, and the crew’s local knowledge of the area is fabulous. I would have no reservations about putting my clients onboard or recommending to other charter brokers. Top Yacht, Crew and Chef!!
