Yacht Week Recenzje 

I recently experienced Yacht Week in Croatia, and it was absolutely phenomenal! Our skipper, Callum, and our host/chef, Gisselle, went above and beyond to ensure we had an unforgettable trip. Their professionalism and friendliness set the tone for a perfect week.

Each day was filled with endless fun, from lively parties to the thrilling regatta. We met amazing people from all over the world, creating memories that will last a lifetime. Callum expertly navigated us to beautiful spots, while Gisselle's delicious meals were a highlight of each day.

Having been on other sailing experiences, I can confidently say this was the best. Yacht Week in Croatia, with Callum and Gisselle, was an unparalleled adventure I highly recommend!

First time and I can’t wait to do it again! What an incredible experience with my friends. We had an amazing skipper, James Minkley and host, Sarah Henderson. They both were absolutely incredible, helpful, thoughtful, nice and downright fun. Will be requesting them if I can in the future!!

Yacht Week deserves a 5-star review for many reasons. Everything was easy from booking, to talking with our skipper to everything else. The events were fun, well maintained and created an air of energy for us to enjoy. I will be going again!

yacht week 2024 W28 was amazing !!!!!!!

This was my 2nd Yacht Week (first did it in 2015), and it was even better than the first time. Although the overall experience is mostly the same, the caliber of the boats has improved. The new larger catamarans are great.

We got lucky enough to have super experienced crew (shoutout to Simon and Jamison) and they were awesome. If you're on the fence, do it.

The best. Such a well thought out week clearly designed to promote socialising with fellow Yacht Weekers, which is exactly what my friends and I went for. Huge love to our skipper, Matteo, who was always available and perfectly managed our group.

Amazing week, my #1 tip would be to hire the host. It made waking everything so much easier not having to worry about food or cleaning all week and they were so fun to hang out with and provide tips. Boat was nice and everyone we met was amazing! 10/10 hoping to do it again!

Trained with Quarterdeck in May 2024. I have done multiple seasons and found it to be an incredibly toxic work environment.

You’re not placed for the full season (sometimes not even consecutive weeks) and, therefore, you are expected to fly to/from Croatia throughout the season. This was a real issue for many people not placed in Europe. I made my situation very clear to recruitment before training but I was assured it would be okay and many people were in the same boat. Most people on my training got around 6 non-consecutive weeks for the full summer if they had full availability.

Regarding pay, I would anticipate to come out on minus figures for working 50-60 hour weeks in a humid galley. In my opinion, you would HAVE to rent somewhere or have the funds to travel Europe in your first season.The pay is also 350 euros for the first 2 weeks, rather than 550 because you’re on probation.

They’re VERY big on company loyalty and how they are perceived on instagram rather than a quality service and treatment of their staff. If you work longer for the company and post about it on instagram, the more likely you are to get more assignments.

You’re assessed for an entire week, your trainer even lives on the boat with you - they asses everything you do and you get barely any free time. Even the nights out felt like a test. It is an extremely high pressure environment and they essentially set you up to fail with 2hr time limits, no equipment on board and an oven that takes 4-5x longer to cook anything.

I felt like I’d failed the training week as soon as I expressed concerns about the job role due to financial and logistical feasibility as it didn’t align with the information given to me by recruitment. I ended up having a panic attack over the environment and treatment of us as it was so mentally exhausting and not at all what I was expecting. They don't want you to express concerns, everybody who did failed the training week.

Overall, I found it hostile, belittling and pretentious - if you have a parents house or a base in Europe then I think it could be a good summer but I would not recommend it as a host. Skipping looked slightly different and felt like an academy whereas I did not feel like I gained any skills or learnt much as a host.

I gave Yacht Week a 5-star review for several reasons. The booking process and app functionality are easy to navigate and informative. The company also organized high-quality events and fostered a fun atmosphere. Everyone was polite, professional, and outgoing. I would highly recommend this company.

Absolute blast of week! Incredible people incredible staff all super well organized and all you have to do is lay back and enjoy the amazing events they have put on for you! Toni was the best skipper ever and had the most incredible recommendations for food and things to do on the island and Tea was the best host ever making the most incredible meals. If you are thinking of doing it getting a host is an absolute must and worth every penny. The FAQ answer any question you may have and there were no surprises.

I have just completed Yacht Week Sardinia - Refined Route. Reflecting on the connections I made this past month, I wanted to express my gratitude as Yacht Week has made such a big impact on my life. I recently turned 40 so the refined week came out at a perfect time.

In 2011, I was living in Chicago and my sushi delivery guy brought me flowers one night after a delivery. He said, “Cassi, this is the fourth day I’ve delivered sushi to your apartment, you need to get out and make some friends.” That was absolutely embarrassing. Two weeks later I booked a cabin in Croatia and the rest is history. I met my husband, moved to Southern California shortly after and had my daughter – my proudest achievement.

Yacht Week Croatia 2024 was unimaginable. From the beauty of the islands, to the warmth of the sun, and the energy of all involved it equated to a spectacular week. I have two highlights for anyone looking to do Yacht Week Croatia, get yourself a host! You will not regret it! My yacht was blessed by the welcoming from host Annika Tidd, she was amazing, hard working, fun, and engaging and enhanced the trip for all of the guests! My 2nd highlight, book tables at the clubs, it is a cheap and fun way to enjoy your drinks and make friends, on an expensive table you may spend 2000€ but split 8 ways it is really affordable considering the drinks at bars are adequately expensive as well. If you want the time of your life with great people and an amazing event crew BOOK YACHT WEEK.

PS: when you book, request Matteo as your skipper if you can, he is a local Croatian who knows the best spots and is the most genuine and kind person I met the entire trip.

My partner and I absolute LOVE yacht week, it is literally lightning in a bottle. The memories that we have made on our two yacht weeks are hands down the best memories of our lives. We are already planning out when we will book our 3rd and 4th yacht week. I can't really describe in words how unique the experience is, the blend of sailing, swimming, beaches, beautiful islands and island towns, shopping, dinners, and capping it all off with exclusive parties. Both Croatia and Greece are incredible, each have their unique benefits and I would recommend both routes. In addition to everything described above, its worth highlighting the professionalism in which Yacht Week puts these experiences together. The interactions with the company are professional, the communication is clear, and you feel confident that you are in good hands. All of the staff is the perfect balance of kind, professional, and fun. They are constantly making sure that the events are going as planned, everyone is safe, and best of all the vibes are high and fun maximized. Lastly, I want to shout out our skipper Orlagh, she was the absolute best! She is the golden standard of what I just described, a truly professional sailor, a kind friend, and a blast to hang out with at the dinners and parties. We are requesting Orlagh as our skipper for all future Yacht Weeks.

TLDR: I would recommend Yacht Week to anyone and everyone and I would tell them to request Orlagh as their skipper

Can't wait for the next one!

Amazing trip with Kate and Ashton who took extremely good care of us. The clubs were unreal and the boat parties were out of a movie. I gained 5 lbs with Kate’s cooking!!!

This was our second time doing Yacht Week and it was even better than the first time last year in Croatia - the route was fantastic, people were amazing and music was so awesome. This year we went to Greece and I would recommend this trip to anyone because it includes everything, you get swim time, city time, sailing time, it's truly the best.

Our skipper Orlagh was AMAZING, she was incredibly professional, kind, knowledgable which made the experience that much better. We would request her next time we do yacht week which we are hoping to try and schedule ASAP! Nothing beats these trips - they are the perfect blend of fun, dancing, partying and socialization.

I also want to highlight how well run they are, everything is done really thoughtfully. The route was adjusted due to weather so we were safe and only visiting islands that didn't have too much wind, you have activities that you have the option for like ATVs, wineries, etc. which makes every day special. We've done trips ourselves outside of yacht week and the logistics aren't the same, there's so much planning and Yacht week takes care of ALL that for you, it's truly a vacation.

Looking forward to BVI, Tahiti or Sardinia!

I've done 3 Yacht Weeks (2 in BVI and 1 in Sardinia) and they all ended being absolutely amazing! I met some incredible friends that now we're all doing travels together and it's been Epic! Get a yacht! Get a Skipper (required)! Get a Host (not required, but suggested)! Have a great time!

In Sardinia I had Diego (skipper) and Marielle (host) and both were amazing!

I’ll say it every time. Don’t think, just do. BOOK THE TRIP.

This was my fifth Yacht Week experience and let me tell you…they just keep getting better. The people you meet, the memories you make, the swim stops, docking locations were absolutely stunning. A big shout out to our skipper Matty and host Josh, who went above and beyond to ensure we had the best time. The seas and winds can be rough in Sardinia and Matty handled it like the pro he is. From fighting for the best docking locations, to ensuring we had the best tables, Matty and Josh got it done.

I had a fantastic time with a crew that was so caring toward everyone on the boat. Our skipper Evanne not only made sure we were all having a good time and asked what we wanted to do at every stop but safely made sure we got to every destination without a hiccup! Our host Ben was basically a free therapist for the week he not only made delicious food but also made sure everyone on board was happy and did everything he could to keep everyone smiling! We love Ben and Evanne!

Cosí and Eva, our Skipper and Host, were the absolute best. They made the trip even better. Between the passion/dedication they have for their job and the fact that they make you feel like family when you meet them. It makes the trip well worth it. Can’t wait for another Yacht Week trip

Absolutely fantastic experience. Had an amazing time and loved every second of it. We are hoping to go back next year and plan to request our fantastic skipper and amazing host, Matija and Matea. Host was definitely worth it and highly recommend the catamarans for the best experience
