Love Story

About Love Story

Best for: groups of friends or couples travelling together, with multi-generational families a close second.

Love Story is a custom-built gulet launched in 2021, and her standout feature is the sheer scale of crew support: eight crew for up to twelve guests, a ratio that places genuine hospitality at the centre of every day aboard. Six en-suite cabins accommodate twelve guests across two generous master cabins (26 and 28 square metres each, both with private shower and home toilet), two convertible twin-to-double cabins, and two triple cabins, giving groups real flexibility in how they fill the boat.

Captain Ivan Trgo brings a nautical science degree, shipyard experience, and years living in Ireland, making communication easy and the operation tight. His brothers Kresimir and the wider family-run crew have grown up on the water and trained in hospitality, so service feels natural rather than formal. Built fresh in 2021 and already earning a steady run of guest reviews, Love Story suits groups who want the comfort of a spacious, well-staffed vessel and the freedom to explore the Croatian coast at a relaxed pace.

INFINITE THANKS TO EVERYONE
Dear Love Story Crew, We are a group of old Argentine friends who have taken several trips like this. This crew is in the "Top 3" of the best we've ever traveled with. It's very difficult for us to rate them because they are kind, efficient, caring, attentive, and they did everything they could to understand each and every one of us. We will always remember them fondly. A "Special mention to Cristina," who is responsible for us having to buy clothes a size bigger. Ha ha ha!!! :) We thank the entire team who took care of us while we had fun like children in the water... And what can we say about Tony and Ana... We all need a Tony and Ana at home... Infinite thanks to everyone...

We've eaten like in Michelin starred every single day. AN ABSOLUTE DREAM!!! We already find ourselves wishing we could stay longer. Hope to return next year and make this amazing journey a tradition.

Good to know

We want to make sure you are well prepared and informed for your trip. Here are a few things you might want to know before you set off.
An APA (Advanced Provisioning Allowance) is an amount paid to the yacht before your charter. It's a fund to cover expenses such as food & drink eaten on board, fuel and mooring fees. At the end of your charter, you’ll receive a detailed document showing how the APA was spent, and any remaining balance will be refunded to you. if in doubt about what is included, ask your HELM broker.
The Captain will let you know if you're about to overspend and discuss your next steps, which wil generally be a bank transfer to top up the funds.
We recommend (10-15% for the Med) (15-20% for the Caribbean/Bahamas) of your charter fee, which will be split evenly among the crew (it's a nice touch to bring a blank envelope or a thank you card in advance).
We'll share your Captain's details with you a few weeks before your charter. We can set up a group chat with your group and the captain to discuss plans before you go.
