We had the pleasure of booking a 10 day charter in Croatia & Montenegro in June of 2025. We were traveling with 4 adults & 4 children ages 6-13.
All of the staff were outstanding, welcoming and the extremely kid friendly. This captain & crew were always working as a team; professional, accommodating, very respectful of boundaries & spaces. The food was the best we have ever had on ANY charter we have been by a good margin. Everything was fresh and there was no need to eat off the boat because every meal was very special. We highly recommend this charter without reservation for an amazing visit to Croatia which is their specialty. We will be back but will stay longer with them next time!

For a wonderful experience aboard the Annabel II!
JERRY, VANIA, EUGEN, MILICA & ALEX
Wow—what an incredible ten days on board Annabel II for the Tremain family! We had high expectations, however these were blown out of the water from day one.
- Jerry, your calm manner and expertise leading your team and your clients was first class. Your humour made it even better—“wake up the donkeys!” HVALA!
- Vania, you are a lovely person with expertise in all areas of hospitality. Go well!
- Eugen, what can one say about you as a chef? The best food ever eaten by us! Plus your humble personality.
- Milica, you will make an incredible lead lady as you continue to learn from Vania—a beautiful soul to go with it.
- Alex, you were so friendly from day one. Your expertise in key areas was essential for our trip to travel smoothly. Great guy.
In summary, the very best holiday anyone can have in the most beautiful country of Croatia! HVALA SIMON
- Jerry – A constant anchor through our journey! “Wake up the donkeys!” and “cyclist”—knows the right guys and always gets the best spot in the port.
- Vania – Heavenly smile! I’ll never hear the words “you’re welcome” or “no problem” without thinking of you.
- Milica – Lovely, quiet, hardworking and on the job all the time.
- Eugen – Michelin-star meals three times a day. Thank you!
- Alex – Your positivity and local knowledge were priceless. I’ll miss you all! — JH

To the Captain and Crew of Annabelle I,
Wow! What can we say? This week has been beyond spectacular! This trip has been beyond 6 stars—truly unforgettable.
Each day was so smooth, and when we changed course to see Montenegro too, Captain Jerry was so accommodating and showed us the best of both Croatia and Montenegro!
Chef Eugene—no words. Every single meal was beyond delicious, and the presentation was out of this world. The tables looked so beautiful every meal, and the dining experience was top notch! We want him in our kitchen every day!
Vanya and Melia were absolutely gracious, beyond kind, and the perfect hostesses. They catered to our every need, and every single time did it with a smile. They truly were absolutely incredible. Nothing was too much trouble, and they made us feel like royalty.
Alex is such a happy, warm, helpful, and energetic person. He was so much fun and did everything my kids and family asked for!
Captain Jerry—the biggest thanks for keeping us safe and showing us this beautiful country—two in fact!
Cannot say enough about this week.
Muchas gracias and a very grateful thank you!

OUTSTANDING!
To the crew of Annabell — Spending a week working the Dalmatian coast is special but this crew — Capt. Jerry, Tanka, Stipe, Alex
• Milica — made the trip unforgettable. From the moment we stepped aboard, their warmth, professional- ism and genuine passion for what they do made the experience extraordinary.
Their hospitality was unmatched. Every member of the crew made us feel truly valued and cared for. Tanka anticipated needs we didn’t even know we had, always with a smile and ease that made the week effortless. From fresh squeezed juices and expertly prepared coffee drinks to bringing us pillows as we lounged on the bow.
Chef Stipe exceeded every expectation with multi course meal after meal that rivaled the finest dining in every port.
Capt Jerry kept us safe and informed and shared his love for the pristine waters. Alex was always prepared with a broad smile and the ability to fix any issue aboard.
By week’s end we felt like family.
