Cruise Croatia will add a 36-passenger new-build vessel to its fleet in early spring 2025. The MV Aretis will feature 18 en-suite cabins up to 160 square feet each, with a restaurant and bar on the upper deck.
The ship’s outdoor areas will include a sundeck, covered lounge space with sofas, sun loungers and a jacuzzi. Water sports equipment such as stand-up paddle boards, sea kayaks, floats and snorkeling gear will be available for guests.
“We’re very proud to introduce MV Aretis to the Cruise Croatia fleet,” said Graham Carter, chief commercial officer of Cruise Croatia. “Demand for luxury small-ship cruising is growing, as travelers continue to seek out voyages with a unique element, exploring destinations that larger vessels simply cannot visit.”
The vessel will operate 19 seven-night voyages between Dubrovnik and Split from June 7 to October 11, 2025. The company plans to increase departures to 24 sailings in 2026.
MV Aretis joins Cruise Croatia’s current fleet of 16 ships. All vessels in the fleet have been either recently built or refurbished.
