Sailing holidays that suit all budgets
Rumour has it that sailing holidays are only for the rich or well-connected. With Sailsquare, that's no longer true. Come and discover a world you never thought was accessible!
We had a great time and would highly recommend the trip BUT this trip is not a premium offering, so adjust your expectation accordingly. The boat was not particularly well maintained and the refit in 2017 was for engine and mechanics only. The sheets were old and someone else on the boat had holes in one of their sheets. Unlike the inclusion list, the A/C does not run every day, only when you are in port. The food was nice enough but nothing special. The skipper Cesar was fantastic and super knowledgeable about the area. You visited some amazing spots and saw the best of the area.
Riccardo is a very good skipper! He always sailed willingly, weather conditions permitting. Companionship. And enthusiastic in discovering the beautiful bays of Sardinia. Very good!
One of the most ingamba skippers I have known in my life. A person of heart and very technically prepared... always available and ready to help you in your time of need. A great man and a great skipper.
In our beautiful holiday we were lucky enough to have 2 skippers .. Andrea N. skipper of great experience maneuvered with great confidence accompanied by sympathy and lightness. Marco F. in addition to having great harmony and coordination with the commander proved to be a great entertainer with lessons ranging from sailing to history. We were also lucky with the rest of the crew, all pleasant and cooperative people. We hope to start again soon.
Thanks again to all.. Ad Maiora
Guido and Michela
Unforgettable holiday, to be repeated definitely!
Prepared and sociable skipper.
Inspiration for improvement: more formalism in the checkin process of the boat (which was rented and not 100%).
Massimiliano is a skipper of great experience, who leaves nothing to chance and who instills extreme confidence and security. At the same time, his strong empathy and availability make you always feel at ease.
A perfect and magical holiday, I will definitely travel with him again!
Unforgettable holiday!
Professional skippers, very good and very kind and a fantastic crew.
Super recommended!
Beautiful and comfortable boat.
We experienced the sea at 360 degrees and saw wonderful places.
In addition, we also learned some very interesting basics about navigation.
Experience absolutely to be redone.
If you are looking for a luxurious holiday served and revered it is not the holiday for you, but if you want to experience the sea in all its forms you will be on the right boat
You will have the opportunity to always sleep in the harbor, see pristine places relax and go sailing. Vincenzo is an experienced skipper and if you know how to listen to him he can teach you many things. Despite having a pre-established itinerary Vincenzo is open to the possibility of changing the route, weather permitting, if you want to see other places. Thank you Vincenzo, it was a wonderful holiday !
Pietro is a Captain of great experience at sea and is a person, able to teach, create a team in the crew, entertain and appreciate the best of the sea to those who sail.
His boat is cared for in every detail for comfort and safety at sea.
He became a great friend!
It was a fantastic week and very relaxing. With the group a beautiful harmony was created and I felt good from the first moment. An added value was certainly the sleep in the harbor for most of the nights: waking up in a bay and immediately taking the first dip before having breakfast has no equal. Thanks then to Claudio and also to Barbara, for being a cook attentive to my celiac needs. I hope there are other opportunities to travel together!
Top week! The skipper Simon was fantastic, he immediately put us at ease and always shared with us the best itinerary often satisfying our requests ... with a lot of patience! We shared lunches and dinners always with so much joy and he taught us the key maneuvers to enter and exit the ports and often helped him with sails. Sleeping in radda is a unique experience... we lived in close contact with nature... what can I say?... super experience!
The trip from Rossignano, Elba Island, Corsica and Sardinia was fabulous, we were able to admire many bays and beautiful waters and landscapes.
Roberto, the skipper was impeccable in the management of the sailboat in the most particular places, showing great professionalism, experience and flexibility to all our needs, and proved to be a nice and pleasant person. Very pleasant company on board.
The boat very comfortable, with sails unfurled spectacular.

The one way tour of Corsica and Sardinia took place in good company and partly conditioned by the initial weather not really favorable. A few more sailing boards I wouldn't have minded. Paolo, a good and nice skipper.
A nice holiday on board of beautiful hello. Comfortable and well maintained boat. Riccardo with passion made us discover the world of sailing and beyond. A fantastic night walk made this holiday even more beautiful I recommend this experience of sport and nature to all lovers of adventure and the sea.
Maximum
Very relaxing and fun holiday.
Roberta was a perfect Captain, attentive and scrupulous during the navigation and with the guests on board.
I recommend without delay to travel with her.
The boat is comfortable, clean and tidy!
I must say that the holiday met expectations
The idea of the Tyrrhenian crossing was fascinating: not seeing lands emerged for a long journey and witnessing the changing colors of sky and sea will remain dear to me! Skipper Alberto was helpful and attentive to the needs of his crew and other travel companions. really a discovery! Fantastic experience!!
What a fantastic experience! Gianni is a very experienced skipper and a wonderful guy, He made us feel at home on Marelia and took us to some of the most beautiful bays in Sardinia and Corsica, we swam, dived, waterskied, cooked, drank and laughed together. Marelia is an amazing catamaran, spacious, brand new and with all the comforts including air con and sound system. I can’t wait to sail again with Gianni and the #Lagoon’sLovers ??

Che esperienza fantastica! Gianni è uno skipper molto esperto e un ragazzo meraviglioso ?? ci ha portato in alcuni dei posti più belli della Sardegna e della Corsica, abbiamo nuotato, fatto immersioni e sci d’acqua, abbiamo cucinato, bevuto e riso insieme. Marelia è un catamarano bellissimo, spazioso, nuovo e dotato di tutti i comfort, aria condizionata e sound system inclusi! Non vediamo l’ora di poter veleggiare di nuovo con Gianni e i #LagoonLovers ??

Fabio is a very pleasant person is a super experienced skipper who transmits tranquility and security on every occasion.
I absolutely recommend an experience with his boat.
Alfons and Gonzalo on the boat and Inma on land form a great and compact team, the trip has been an experience, the crossing from Bcn to Alguero is a mini challenge for those who are thinking about being on the high seas without having to cross the Atlantic.... ;)
Sardinia keeps multiple secrets, the visits we did very well but the island gives of itself to return again
Thanks for the expedition
A brand new, comfortable and spacious boat, a super nice crew and the magic of the Sardinian sea. Three perfect ingredients together with Giorgio expert skipper, attentive to the minimum desires of the crew, jovial, nice and always available to animate the days and evenings, both at anchor and in the correct breaks on the ground! A plus the services offered on board: perfectly organized galley and already ready and organized, dedicated meals and served x all the crew, organization of admirable time, a careful eye to safety and comfort without forgetting that we are on a sailboat, and therefore great sailing as soon as you felt a little breeze .. what to say ?? a holiday that was worth twice as much as sold .. congratulations really!
Andrea in addition to being a formidable and prepared skipper is a really friendly person, polite and very friendly.
I could not have asked for better, really recommended, experience definitely to be repeated.
He stands out for the simplicity and confidence with which he performs all the maneuvers as well as for the charisma. It also entertains with the sails, which is not obvious.
In short, the TOP!!!!
Patrizio as well as being a captain waiting is scrupulous to every detail to put you at ease, he is a true gentleman.
We all decided insists the places to visit, I will definitely make an experience with him on the boat.
Massimo welcomed us with cordiality and kindness, always worrying about the quality of our boat experience first of all. In addition to taking care of us, he did his best to answer all the curiosities about the boat and navigation.
Since this is my first experience on a sailing boat, it was essential to have had Massimo as a skipper, experienced and really easy going. Highly recommended.
La nostra vacanza di quasi 2 settimane tra Sud della Corsica e Nord - Est della Sardegna è stata meravigliosa!
Ogni cosa non poteva essere migliore, posti visitati incantevoli, baie protette, ogni giorno risvegli in posti incantati e tramonti su mari luccicanti, nonostante fosse Agosto.
La barca di Antoine è davvero speciale con ogni possibile vela immaginabile, navigherete a vela anche con un filo di vento, una barca non da charter ma da regata, con in più i confort per poter fare una vacanza estramemente confortevole.
The last but not the least Antoine e Fides persone speciali, che ci hanno fatto sentire dal primo giorno a casa, hanno cercato da subito di capire le nostre esigenze e hanno fatto d tutto per renderci felci! E ci sono riusciti!!
Lasciare Antoine e Fides è stata dura, ma ci rivedremo!
Consiglio a tutti di viaggiare con loro, davvero ci si sente dei privilegiati!
Buon vento!

The most beautiful places to discover in Northern Sardinia
It's no secret that Italy is one of the most beautiful countries in the world, but a sailing holiday in Northern Sardinia offers some of the most picturesque landscapes in the whole country. Sardinia is surrounded by turquoise, crystal clear waters, and has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, such as the Costa Smeralda, and the stunning natural wonder of the Maddalena Archipelago.
Palau and the Maddalena Archipelago
Palau, in the heart of the archipelago of La Maddalena, is the ideal place to visit the islands of Santo Stefano, Caprera, La Maddalena and Spargi. In the archipelago it is possible to anchor in bays and organise excursions to secluded beaches. Its constant winds mean that this area is perfect for sailing. It is also recommend to go diving at Cala Coticcio in Caprera. There you can continue to Cala Corsara at Spargi, with the famous beaches of Rosa di Budelli and Manto della Madonna.
The Emerald Coast
The Costa Smeralda extends between the Gulf of Arzachena and Cugnana and owes its name to the particular colour of the sea, which contrast against the granite rocks that characterises this exceptional landscape. It is no coincidence that the Costa Smeralda has a particular density of sailing schools, as with the Mistral winds, sailing conditions are ideal. It is also important to remember Porto Cervo, there thanks to its charming beaches, boutiques, and clubs, Porto Cervo has become a renowned location. It is also important to consider that this coastal area is also known for its important archaeological settlements.
