Accommodation
DOLCE VITA accommodates up to 10 guests in 5 en-suite cabins. The layout includes two particularly spacious Master cabins together with two Double cabins and one Twin cabin, making the yacht well suited to families and groups of couples.
2 Master Cabins
Two spacious Master cabins provide the yacht’s largest guest accommodation, with Double beds, extensive storage, individual air conditioning and private en-suite bathrooms.
2 Double Cabins
Two additional Double cabins provide comfortable accommodation for couples, each with private bathroom facilities, minibar and entertainment equipment.
Twin Cabin
The Twin cabin adds flexibility for friends, children or guests who prefer separate beds. All five cabins are individually air conditioned and en-suite.
Living Areas & Onboard Comfort
DOLCE VITA’s broad 7.54-metre beam creates generous guest spaces for only ten guests. Her exterior layout combines a shaded aft dining and lounge area with a broad foredeck designed for sunbathing, relaxing and enjoying the Jacuzzi at anchor.
Classic Three-Masted Sailing Character
Unlike many charter gulets that operate primarily under engine power, DOLCE VITA retains the distinctive appearance and sailing equipment of a traditional three-masted schooner.
Her mahogany construction, tall rig and extensive teak decks give the yacht a strong classic character, while modern charter equipment and guest amenities provide the comfort expected from a contemporary Croatian luxury gulet.
This combination makes DOLCE VITA particularly appealing to guests who want the visual character of a traditional sailing yacht together with spacious private accommodation and professional crew service.
Jacuzzi & Spacious Foredeck
The foredeck Jacuzzi is one of DOLCE VITA’s signature charter features. Positioned within the yacht’s broad forward relaxation area, it provides a comfortable place to unwind while anchored in Croatia’s sheltered bays.
The surrounding deck offers generous space for sunbathing and relaxing, while the shaded aft deck provides a separate area for dining and socialising throughout the day.
Relaxed Adriatic Cruising
DOLCE VITA is powered by twin IVECO diesel engines producing approximately 450 HP each, while her traditional sailing rig provides an additional dimension to the charter experience when conditions allow.
Her typical cruising speed is approximately 9 knots, with a reported maximum speed around 12 knots. This profile is well suited to relaxed island-hopping from Šibenik toward Kornati, Hvar, Vis, Korčula and Dubrovnik.
Tender & Water Toys
DOLCE VITA carries a varied leisure package for active days at anchor, supported by a substantial tender and her professional crew.
5.3m Tender
A tender of approximately 5.3 metres with a 100 HP outboard supports guest transfers and tender-operated water sports.
Jet Ski
A Jet Ski is available for active guests, subject to local regulations, operating conditions and additional fuel charges.
Water Ski & Towables
Water skis, donut and other tender-supported towable activities provide additional entertainment during swimming stops.
Paddleboards
Stand-up paddleboards provide a quieter way to explore sheltered bays and nearby beaches.
2 Canoes
Two canoes allow guests to explore the coastline independently during relaxed days at anchor.
Snorkelling & Fishing
Snorkelling and fishing equipment complete the yacht’s leisure inventory for exploring Croatia’s clear-water anchorages.
Water-toy inventories may change between charter periods. Jet Ski, water skiing and other powered activities are subject to local regulations, weather conditions and additional fuel or operating charges. Current equipment should be reconfirmed before charter.
