MV Corona

Constructed using the finest materials, specially designed to sail in Croatian waters and operated by a family of seafarers of three generations, there is an unmistakable sense of exclusivity. MV Corona is for 2025 departures only. You are immediately struck by the vessel’s intimate feel, yet there is no doubting her four-star pedigree: the build quality, tasteful decor and furnishings, the immaculate teak decking and the convenient layout are all designed to make your cruise memorable – for all the right reasons! Although, unlike traditional cruise ships, the MV Corona at 44 metres is easily small enough to berth at the quayside in some of the Mediterranean’s most charming little ports, there is ample deck space and spacious, contemporary public areas, all finished with quality fabrics, warm wooden panelling and those classy little touches one always appreciates! All decks provide tastefully furnished accommodation: well-appointed outside cabins, with elegant teak flooring, luxurious double or twin beds and contemporary bathroom fittings. Cabins are a minimum size of 14 square metres (151 square feet) all featuring individually controlled air-conditioning, a bathroom with shower and WC, safe, hairdryer, desk and chair. In the air-conditioned restaurant the attentive crew serves daily breakfast with hot and cold options and either lunch or dinner consisting of well prepared, local dishes featuring salads to hot Mediterranean specialities, meats and fish. You will enjoy the ‘Captain’s Dinner’, a celebration of Croatian and Mediterranean cuisine featuring food from throughout the Adriatic. On the remainder of the evenings you are free to dine where you wish in the delightful ports we visit. Please note that the MV Corona is for 2025 departures only.
