Mostly they have from 10 and up to 16 or even 20 cabins. Salon is usually on a deck, while cabins can be situated either under deck, or on deck, which gives you great view on the sea, while relaxing in your cabin.

Where can you cruise?
Most departures are from Trogir, Split and Dubrovnik and they cover entire Adriatic region. You can find most of the routes for Croatia on this link.
With a special notion on the routes:
a) Due to the size and speed, this ships can easily do Split – Dubrovnik – Split cruise in a single week
b) This ships cruise during the day, and spend the nights in Ports. You can also spend a night on anchor, but it is not very common.
Best time to Book
This ships get most of the booking from:
1 – Large tour operators that book them for entire season and then sell them on “cabin charter basis” for special groups like cycling, seniors, hiking, guided tours….
2 – Larger groups of 20 – 45 people, that book up to 1 year in advance.
The bottom line is, that it is very hard to get a free week on a private charter cruise on a “last minute basis”, which in this case means booking made from January – June for the same season.
Most of the bookings for charter happen from March till December – FOR THE NEXT YEAR. So if you will wait for the last minute to get a better deal – you will probably get out empty handed.
