Some yachts announce themselves quietly. Sirena is one of them — a 28-metre gulet that doesn't need to shout. Based out of Split and sailing the length of Croatia's incomparable Dalmatian coast, she has quietly built a loyal following among guests who know exactly what they want from a luxury gulet charter: space, elegance, a crew that genuinely cares, and a coastline that does most of the heavy lifting.
We're pleased to confirm that Sirena returns to our fleet for the 2027 season — and frankly, we couldn't be happier about it.
The Yacht Herself
At 28 metres, Sirena strikes a satisfying balance between intimacy and generosity. She sleeps up to ten guests across five well-appointed cabins — enough room for a family reunion or a group of close friends who actually want to spend time together rather than disappear to opposite ends of the boat. The layout flows naturally from social spaces into private retreats, and her deck areas invite exactly the kind of languid, sun-drenched afternoons that a Croatia yacht charter is made for.
On board, a professional crew of four takes care of everything — including a dedicated chef whose cooking, we're told by returning guests, is one of the highlights of the whole week. That's a claim we take seriously. Good food at sea isn't a given; on Sirena, it's apparently a promise.
Split: The Perfect Starting Point
Sirena's home port is Split — and it's hard to imagine a better launchpad for a private yacht charter along the Dalmatian coast. Split is, honestly, one of Europe's most underrated cities. Diocletian's Palace isn't just a ruin; it's a living, breathing neighbourhood where people eat, drink, and argue football within Roman walls that are nearly 1,700 years old. Arrive a night early, wander the Riva at dusk, and you'll board Sirena already in the right frame of mind.
From Split, the itinerary possibilities are dizzying. Head south and the islands come thick and fast — Brač with its famous Zlatni Rat beach, Hvar's lavender-scented hills and electric harbour, Vis with its wartime tunnels and achingly clear Blue Cave. Push further and you reach Korčula, birthplace of Marco Polo (allegedly), where the old town rises from the sea like a miniature Dubrovnik. Each stop has its own distinct character. That variety — island to island, bay to bay — is what makes a gulet cruise along this coastline so compulsively re-bookable.
Life Aboard: What to Expect
Sirena is a genuinely all-inclusive experience — WiFi, water sports equipment, VAT, and the essentials are all covered. Days tend to find their own rhythm: a morning swim in a sheltered cove, lunch prepared by the chef while the boat nudges into a new anchorage, an afternoon of snorkelling or simply doing nothing particularly well. Evenings might mean dinner on deck under a sky that seems too starry to be real, or a walk into one of the island towns for a glass of local wine.
Speaking of which — Croatia's domestic wines deserve far more attention than they get. The Plavac Mali from Hvar or a crisp Pošip from Korčula alongside fresh-caught fish is, we'd argue, one of the great simple pleasures of a luxury charter holiday in the Adriatic. The on-board drinks packages make it easy to enjoy both responsibly and generously, and the catering options — from half board to full board — can be tailored to suit exactly how hands-on (or hands-off) you want to be.
2027 Season: Availability Is Moving
Sirena's charter rates hold steady for 2027 — a genuine rarity in today's market, and a strong signal that now is the time to secure your preferred weeks. The Croatian coast fills up fast between late June and late August, and the best anchorages don't wait. If you've been considering a luxury yacht charter in Croatia for next summer, this is the prompt you needed.
Our team is ready to walk you through itinerary options, cabin configurations, and everything else you need to make 2027 the year you finally do this properly. Get in touch — Sirena is waiting.
