A Mahogany Gulet, Freshly Refitted

Kadena is a 32 m (105 ft) gulet built in 2001, and the mahogany is the first thing you notice: polished wood from the decks down to the cabins. She was refitted in 2026, and the next round of work is already under way, a hard top over the dining table that will shade the whole stern deck.

Nobody expects you to sail. Your crew of 4 runs the boat, the galley and the table, and the week is yours to spend between the deck, the sea and the next anchorage.

Six Cabins, All En Suite

Every cabin has its own bathroom with a shower-tub, air conditioning, toiletries and a hairdryer, so nobody waits in line in the morning. Beds come with quality mattresses and soft linen, framed by the same warm wood as the rest of the boat. The layout suits a mixed group: two cabins for couples, two that sleep three, and two twins for friends or older kids.

  • 1 master cabin with a king-size bed

  • 1 VIP cabin with a queen-size, walk-around bed

  • 2 cabins with a queen-size bed and a single bed

  • 2 twin cabins

Life on Deck

The stern deck is where the days unfold. The long dining table sits beside a jacuzzi wrapped in a deep sofa, so lunch and a lazy afternoon soak are only a few steps apart. Midships, a sofa and cocktail table wait for the first drink of the evening. The bow has its own lounge sofa and open deck for sunbathing, with nothing but sea ahead.

When you want shade, the salon looks out over the water through panoramic windows, with a large sofa, a second dining table and the bar, all in dark polished wood. Wi-Fi covers the whole boat. The chef plans the menu around your group's tastes and cooks Mediterranean food, served at the stern table as the evening light turns gold.

Water Toys

The swim platform at the stern puts the sea one step from the deck. The canoe, 2 SUP boards and snorkeling gear come with the charter, so you can paddle across a quiet bay or drift over the rocks with a mask whenever the boat is at anchor.

For more speed, the 6 m (20 ft) tender with a 100 HP Honda outboard tows water skis, a wakeboard and the donut, and there is a jet ski on board. Both are charged by the hour.

Frequently Asked Questions

Once we confirm the availability of your chosen gulet and you’re ready to book, you will sign a charter agreement—either our standard contract or a MYBA agreement (used for the most luxurious vessels).

*MYBA is the Mediterranean Yacht Broker Association and sets the standards for everyone in the industry to adhere to. The agreement will also include any additional charges and taxes that may apply to your choice of itinerary.To officially secure your gulet, a 50% deposit of the charter fee is required, along with the signed agreement. Around two months before departure, the remaining balance and any pre-arranged extras are due—and that’s when we dive into planning the details of your trip. Learn more about the step-by-step booking process.

From the moment you get in touch, we’ll work with you to shape an itinerary that matches your travel style, interests, and pace.

Of course, your final itinerary may be shaped by a few factors—like the gulet’s range, weather conditions, and the captain’s expert advice. Safety always comes first, and sometimes marina availability can also influence your overnight stops.

To get inspired, take a look at our sample itineraries—they’re a great starting point for building a journey that’s truly your own.

If you want the best selection, early booking is highly recommended. The most popular gulets with top crews and service often get booked up to a year in advance, especially for peak summer dates.

While it’s sometimes possible to find something last-minute (around 2–3 months before departure), options are limited and tend to go fast as the season approaches.

Not sure what’s still available? Talk to our charter broker and we’ll gladly check the latest options for your preferred dates.

Croatia’s Mediterranean climate makes it a great gulet destination from spring through autumn, with each season offering a different experience. Here’s what to expect:

  • Low Season: Spring (April – May)

Ideal for travelers who enjoy mild temperatures, quiet bays, and lower rates. The sea is cooler, but the scenery is lush and the towns are peaceful.

  • Mid-Season: Early Summer (June) & Late Summer (September)

A perfect balance—warm weather, swimmable seas, and lively towns without peak-season crowds. This is one of the best times for a gulet charter.

  • High Season: Peak Summer (July – August)

The height of the sailing season, when Croatia buzzes with energy. Croatia is hot, sunny, and full of energy. Marinas are bustling, nightlife is in full swing, and popular gulets book out fast—so early planning is key.

  • Low Season: Autumn (October)

A quieter, more relaxed experience with warm days and calm seas. Some seasonal spots may begin to close, but it's perfect for those seeking privacy and space.

Tipping isn’t mandatory, but it’s a well-established custom in the charter world and always appreciated by the crew. If you’re happy with the service, a gratuity of 10% to 15% of the charter fee is considered appropriate.

Tips are usually given to the captain at the end of the trip, who then distributes the amount fairly among the entire crew.

Croatia’s official currency is the Euro. For payments onboard, you should carry some cash with you. 

While most shops, restaurants, and services on land accept card payments, it’s a good idea to carry some cash, especially for small purchases or local spots.

Need to withdraw money? ATMs are widely available in all major towns and ports, so accessing cash is easy during your trip.

All of our crews are fluent in English. In fact, many crew members are multilingual, often speaking Italian, German, or Spanish in addition to English.

Compared to other gulet destinations, like Turkey, where English fluency can sometimes be limited, Croatia stands out for its excellent communication and guest-friendly crews.

No problem—we’re here to help beyond what you see online. Our team constantly updates the fleet with the latest and best gulets available, including new builds and newly added vessels. If you don’t see your perfect match on our site, just let us know what you’re looking for.

We have a full overview of the Croatian charter market and thanks to our extensive partner network, we can also source top-quality gulets in other leading destinations like Turkey, Greece, and Montenegro.
