“It is difficult to express the week we spent together, your lovely country was by far our best family vacation! The weather was incredible (we got lucky), the amazing sea, the islands, but more importantly, your kindness, food, and the incredible crew. We will never forget this week. It was the best way of celebrating Mariana’s birthday. ¡GRACIAS TOTALES!“

“We have had one of the best weeks I have ever had in my life! Roko, Jure, Daniela, and Branco are the best crew I've ever had. I have done 4 cruises & I have experience with crews. This one is the BEST. Thank you for your hospitality. All of us only say THANK YOU!“

“5 Stars across the board! Our 7 days on the Lotus were an unbelievable experience. The food on the boat was over the top and the recommendations when we chose to dine ashore were excellent. Cannot say enough good things about Roko & his crew; polite, friendly, fun and extremely professional. Croatia & the Dalmatian coast were beautiful, I would not hesitate to recommend a charter on the Lotus with Roko & his staff.“
BROKERS' FEEDBACK 2025:
“Lotus was looking great—very clean and tidy. The new en-suites were particularly lovely: bright and modern. Roko mentioned he’d recently refitted the panels above the dining table, and they looked really good. First impressions of the crew were fantastic—they were all smiley, warm, friendly, and welcoming. The whole crew was smart and presentable throughout. Onboard, the atmosphere was relaxed and enjoyable from the start, thanks to the excellent crew who worked really well together as a team. They were professional, attentive, and made me feel completely at home. Roko was fab—very interactive and attentive. Jure, the chef, was also fantastic and very personable—not to mention talented! Daniella was brilliant; her confidence and enthusiasm stood out, and her service noticeably improved during the fam trip with guidance from Andjela. Branco is quieter but consistently polite and helpful. I think Daniella has all the makings of a great stew onboard. Lotus itself has a great layout with well-designed living spaces—the aft daybed is spacious, and the flybridge sundowner area is a lovely bonus. Details like robes and slippers really elevate the guest experience, and the interiors strike a nice balance between traditional and modern—nothing too flashy, just right.” “I’d say Lotus was a solid 9 out of 10. Easily the best gulet out of the three we saw on the fam trip—newest, sleekest, highest quality. The deck areas and salon were in great condition, and overall, it stood out from the fleet. My first impression of the crew was very good. Roko is a great captain— excellent with guests and a strong communicator. Danijela, once we got to spend more time with her, was very present and engaging, especially on the later nights when drinks were flowing. Her English was excellent, and she was quick with jokes, better than most crew I've come across, honestly. The chef was a lovely guy, and the one dinner I experienced onboard was very good. I also heard from others that their meal was amazing. The young deckhand seemed very nice and professional, too, even though they’re harder to evaluate as they mostly work behind the scenes. The standout for me, though, is the woodwork—the craftsmanship is exceptional. As someone who knows gulets well, I’d say Lotus might have the best woodwork I’ve seen in Croatia. It’s not just well-maintained, it’s built well, which sets it apart from many others in the region.” “Overall, I thought the yacht was excellent—very detailed and well- presented. Clean, stylish, and made a great impression. The crew were welcoming and friendly straight away. Roco is a really cool guy. He brings a great vibe to the boat and carries that energy through the whole crew. He’s the king of Lotus. The service was good, the food was tasty, and I’m confident guests would have a great time onboard. The cabins stood out— especially the master and VIP, they’re awesome. The flybridge is a great space, and overall, the atmosphere onboard is just spot-on. For me, it’s the best ‘all rounder’—I’d happily recommend Lotus to clients and other brokers.”

Thank you so much for an unforgettable trip and a magical birthday celebration! Your warm-hearted hospitality and your genuine care for us will always be remembered. Until next time!
Amazing vacation with lots of great memories!
Amazing vacation on Lotus. Lotus is a beautiful boat. Two master staterooms, beautifully decorated. One cabin with full bed one with twin bed all with their own bathroom. Shaded dining on back of boat. Gorgeous salon. Boat has waverunner, kayak, paddle board, ski’s, tube, snorkeling gear. We can not say enough about the Captain, Roko and crew, Josipa, Marin, and Jure. Jure is the chef and we had the most amazing meals, we will probably need to be rolled home. Full breakfast, lunch, and dinner, great wines. We asked Roko to take us to some private coves and also took his suggestions on ports. Every spot seemed better than the next. I also want to say that every person we came into contact with told us what an amazing human Roko is, we definitely concur!!! We have so enjoyed getting to know Roko and his crew. Thanks to them for an amazing vacation with lots of great memories. We cannot recommend highly enough!!!
Everything was perfect!
Thank you for a wonderful week aboard the beautiful Lotus! Everything was perfect, the food, the service, the scenery! A lovely country + incredible people. We hope to be back soon! Much love from our family!
An incredible vacation experience!
The week we spent on Lotus was perfect! It exceeded every expectation. The Captain and his crew were outstanding. The chef on the boat created amazing meals. I highly recommend this ship and her crew to anyone looking for an incredible vacation experience.
