Summer Princess
SUMMER PRINCESS is a beautiful, newly refurbished boat that would be ideal for luxury family gulet cruises in Croatia. The team that run it have been in the cruising business in Croatia for over 12 years, so they have plenty of knowledge of the area and know what pleases their guests. The accommodation comprises 5 double cabins, sleeping up to 10 guests. The boat is traditional in style and made with wood throughout. It has a length of 25.8 meters and a beam of 7.8 meters, which is unusually wide for a boat of this length, so it has loads of deck space on which to walk around or relax in the sun. The boat also has a huge stern deck area with a large dining table and soft seating where you can enjoy fantastic dinners during the balmy evenings. Having worked with the team who run the boat for 12 years, I couldn't recommend them more highly, and many of their bookings are from repeat clients, some of whom have come back several years running, which speaks for its itself. The boat really sails too, so is ideal for clients interested in sailing.

Charter price includes
The crew (specified above), water, electricity, clean bed linen, clean shower and sunbathing towels (changed at least twice a week), a free welcome drink, fuel for 4 hours cruising a day (which is usually more than enough), Wi-Fi Internet connection, personal injury insurance while on the boat, and free use of onboard equipment specified above.
Charter price doesn't include
Harbour fees (see above for estimate of cost, which can be reduced by anchoring outside the ports on some nights), meals & other drinks aboard (specified above), transfers between the airport and boat, National Park entrance fees and tips to the crew.
Advanced Provisioning Allowance (APA) is a percentage of the charter price to be paid in advance to cover your expenses during the cruise, such as meals, drinks, harbour fees, etc. The APA is held on account on your behalf and at the end of the week the total of all your expenses will be deducted and the balance will be refunded to you (it does not include tips to the crew, which need to be paid separately). Not all boats ask for an APA (see above) but ask for meals and all-inclusive drinks to be paid on arrival and harbour fees to be paid locally as you arrive in each port.
The boats' charter season is usually from the beginning of May to the end of October and this is usually divided into 3 price periods, with Low Season usually comprising May & October, Mid Season usually comprising June & September, and High Season usually comprising July & August. Some boats, however, can have as few as 2 different pricing periods and some as many as 4 or even 5, and the dates for these can vary, so if you are confused, which is understandable, please don't hesitate to
