Goolets Ltd.

We recently spent a week traveling through the Croatian islands on the Gulet ‘Croatia’. It was a magical experience and one we will remember fondly forever. I booked the boat through Goolets. Klemen was my concierge contact and was keen to assist in any way possible to make sure we had the best experience possible. He would always respond to my queries within 24 hrs despite the time difference and was always happy to accommodate any requests or queries. The boat itself was spacious and well decked out for 3 families traveling with kids. The crew were lovely, obliging, kind people who were always happy to help. A very relaxed and capable Captain who took us to some incredible places. The food was incredible. 3 courses for lunch and dinner (depending on which we selected for the day) and breakfast was a smorgasbord catering for many of our traveling party’s preferences. I don’t know how our chef did it all out of the ship’s kitchen. Nothing was too much trouble. I highly recommend the experience to anyone considering it. We would happily do it again.

The experience was amazing. What truly made the trip stand out was the exceptional crew—they were not only professional and attentive, but genuinely warm, friendly, and always ready with a smile. They went above and beyond to make every moment on board feel special, from remembering our names and preferences to making sure we were always comfortable and happy. As for Croatia itself – wow. Every stop along the way was more breathtaking than the last. Crystal-clear waters, ancient towns, charming harbors, and gorgeous sunsets—

First class! 7 days on Riva will make it hard to go back to real life! Staff are exceptional, the vessel is comfortable with all the mod cons. The best way to see Croatia and the Adriatic!

We recently had the pleasure of spending time aboard Smart Spirit, and it was truly one of the most unforgettable experiences of our lives. The boat itself is stunning—classic, beautifully maintained, and immaculately clean—but what truly made the trip exceptional was the incredible crew: Mislav, Nano, and Veto. From the moment we stepped aboard, we were blown away by the level of service, professionalism, and warmth. Mislav, the captain, exuded confidence and joy. He made us feel completely at ease, always checking in to ensure we were happy and comfortable. His island-hopping recommendations were perfect, and he even took our kids tubing—such a highlight! Nano’s cooking was out of this world—some of the best food we’ve ever had. Every dish was impeccable, and he somehow managed to wow even our picky children, who are still talking about his meals. His attention to detail and talent in the kitchen were nothing short of amazing. And then there’s Veto, who became a fast favorite among both adults and kids. He was incredibly attentive, kind, and thoughtful. He anticipated our needs, kept everything spotless, and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. Our son adored him—they even had a secret handshake! The trip was more than a vacation—it was an experience filled with leisure, adventure, joy, and world-class hospitality. Seeing Croatia from the water aboard Smart Spirit, surrounded by such an exceptional crew, was nothing short of magical. We can’t recommend it highly enough.

We had the pleasure to cruise on the Riva, out of Split, Croatia. It was a wonderful experience. The cabins were clean and comfortable. The chefs served us the most delicious meals. The crew was courteous and professional and went to great effort to accommodate requests. When stormy weather threatened, the captain proposed changes to our itinerary to keep us safe - which we appreciated. We had a wonderful time and are already discussing doing it again. Highly recommend the Riva.

For the 36th year, we have chartered on the Turkish Coast. We know it inside out….but a great boat and a capable, friendly and professional crew make all the difference! The crew on this and last year’s crew were the best ever- capable, polite, always perfectly dressed, and most importantly for these charters in Turkey, at least one crewmember spoke perfect English! The food was fabulous and varied. We discovered new places. And, the captain understood that we wanted our peace and quiet- no busy bays or ports, just beautiful anchoring spots with beautiful swimming.

This was our first time booking through goolets and we could not be more satisfied. Jon at goolets helped find the perfect yacht for our group, Alfa Mario, and patiently guided us through the entire process from planning to embarking and disembarking. He was very responsive and extremely helpful all along the way. Alfa Mario—words can’t describe how beautiful the yacht is from the common areas, to water sports and the staterooms were more comfortable than expected. But even more impressive was the crew. The crew was so kind, attentive, helpful and fun! In particular, the bartending/server crew were incredible. HUGE shout out to Jakub, Ines and Vuch. The entire group loved them and their great attitude and hard work made the trip incredibly fun and unforgettable. It would not have been the same without them. The Captain and Mihaela were also great and went out of their way to adjust to our itinerary changes and dining needs. Speaking of dining, the food was incredible. We were pleasantly surprised about how good the food was considering the chefs were working in a limited size yacht kitchen. Thank you to the entire crew. In sum, the experience from selecting a yacht until the very end of our journey was simply magical. We would highly recommend goolets and specifically Alfa Mario. We can’t wait to book our next yacht trip.

CROATIA at it's BEST .We sailed around the Adriatic Coast with our Captain Ante and his righthand man Marko . They took us to places you couldn't even get to with a car. The Islands were magical . Highly recommend Nevijana, the crew were a pleasure to deal with. We sailed for 7 nights around the Islands of Croatia, WOW what an experience that was, cant wait to do it again in a few more years time .
