Cruise Croatia’s Awards
As Croatia’s largest small ship cruise company, we’re passionate about showing our guests the very best of the Adriatic. From our privately operated fleet of modern small ships to the Croatian and European specialists who plan every journey, our focus is on creating personal, seamless cruises that bring travelers closer to the places, people, and experiences that make Croatia so special.
We’re incredibly proud to have that approach recognized within the travel industry. Our awards reflect the work of the teams both on board and ashore who help make every moment memorable.
Conde Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards, 2025
In 2025, Cruise Croatia ranked seventh in the Small Cruise Ships category of the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards. The rankings are voted on by Condé Nast Traveler’s readers, who score the travel experiences that mattered most to them over the past year. Being placed alongside the best-known names in small-ship cruising was a proud moment for our team – a recognition earned by the guests who sailed with us along the Croatian coast and rated their time on board so highly.
Conde Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards, 2026
For the second year running, Cruise Croatia has been named among the world’s best small-ship cruise lines in the Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards, ranking sixth in the Small Cruise Ships category – up from seventh in 2025. The result is decided entirely by Condé Nast Traveler’s readers, so it reflects what travelers themselves valued most about their time on board. Moving up the rankings tells us that the things we focus on are what guests remember: a small group on board, a crew that learns your name, and routes planned around the harbors and islands that larger ships can’t reach.
