CHEF
Ivan Klismanic
When you step on board Tajna Mora and Ivan greets you with a warm smile and perhaps your first taste of something delicious, you’ll instantly know you’re in great hands and that your holiday has truly begun. As the Chef on board, Ivan believes that food is one of the most genuine ways to connect with guests-through authentic flavours, creativity, and care. His philosophy is simple :every dish should make feel guests appreciated and at home. After graduating from hospitality school and gaining experience in various bars and restaurants, Ivan wanted to take his passion to the next level. Life at sea offered him the perfect balance-the chance to meet new people around the world and to showcase traditional Mediterranean cuisine in his own way. Unlike in busy restaurants, life aboard Tajna Mora allows him to prepare each meal with patience and dedication, tailoring the experience to every guest individually. Now, after six years on board, Ivan has become an essential part of the Tajna Mora family. When he’s not in the galley crafting something special, he enjoys spending time with his family and staying active-especially playing football, his favourite sport.

August 2025
“The boat was beautiful. But the hospitality and attitude of the crew was exceptional! They were quick to help, considerate, and a whole lot of fun. Also, their knowledge of the places we visited and willingness to arrange outings and advise us made everything better.“
July 2025
“We had an incredible week on Tajna Mora. We spent more time on the boat at remote spots with incredible coves. The crew, as always, was amazing. Did I tell you how much we love these guys! They went above and beyond, arranging an early birthday dinner for me at the lighthouse on Susac Island. It will be a birthday that will always be remembered!“
June 2025
“Luka, you and your crew made our trip the best! We have never experienced anything like it before, and we will forever be fans of you, your crew, and Tajna Mora. You are a wonderful captain and host. Expect us back in 2027!“
We were so very sad to leave! September 2024
My friends and I booked the Tajna Mora to celebrate my milestone birthday, and we were overwhelmed by the comfort and elegance of the boat and gracious hospitality of the crew. Every day Captain Luka helped plan a perfect place to dock and a day of activities that appealed to all the tastes of our group. The meals that were prepared for us on the boat were outstanding, and rivaled the meals we had at highly-rated Croatian restaurants. We had high expectations and they were well exceeded. We were so very sad to leave, and literally waited until the very last minute at the end of our stay to exit the boat. I have no doubt that we will find our way back to the Tajna Mora someday.
We had an absolutely fantastic time! August 2024
Our family had an absolutely fantastic time, and it was so hard to leave! Luka and his team made us feel right at home, and we can't thank them enough for their hospitality. The kids have already started school, and we're all back to work, but we're still reminiscing about the incredible memories we made. Special thanks to Ivan for spoiling us with his culinary talents—it's been tough going back to our own cooking! Luka, you are an incredible young man and a very capable captain. We have no doubt that you have a bright future ahead of you. Zivili!
One of the best gulet experiences we’ve ever had! July 2024
We had a fantastic time! The crew, the boat, and the food were all excellent—honestly, one of the best gulet experiences we’ve ever had, and we’ve been on many. The hotel you found for us was also perfect. We would love to book the same week for 2025.
Most special week we could have ever envisioned! September 2023
Thank you for the most special week we could have ever envisioned. Croatia is an amazing place, and you are all absolute angels, on top of being supreme professionals. Your kindness, attentiveness, and commitment to making our trip memorable have been beyond appreciated. The service and care we received from you exceeded even our high standards. And the food, wow, the food. We may have eaten our way through Dalmatia's best restaurants (A+ recommendations), but our favorite meals of the whole trip were the ones on deck, prepared by Ivan's masterful hands. From all us crazy Americans, we love you!
Every aspect of our voyage exceeded our expectations! August 2023
Thank you so much for making our family vacation such a memorable and special event. Every aspect of our voyage exceeded our expectations. Every minute on board we felt extremely well taken care of. We especially loved our wonderful meals - thank you Ivan! Every place we visited was exceptional - thank you Captain Luka for the recommendations! We are going to miss you all, our Tajna Mora family. We hope to see you again on a future voyage. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best vacation ever!
We hope to meet again! July 2023
Thank you to you all on the beautiful Tajna Mora for a most wonderful and memorable week for our family. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful country, food, and most of all your kindness and hospitality. Continue your good work. We hope to meet again! Love and blessings!
Best week ever! July 2023
Thanks for the best week ever on Tajna Mora! We had the most incredible time and loved every second of the beautiful boat and the Croatian waters. Definitely feel very lucky to have been able to experience everything we did. Thank you all for being so lovely, helpful, and fun!
Thank you for this unforgettable experience! June 2023
The last week has been the most fun week of my life. The boat experience is amazing. Croatia is beautiful, but what makes the trip so special is how amazing the crew is. I am truly grateful to all of you for everything you do for us. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

What are "Med Rates" or "Med Terms?"
Med Term pricing is cost (cost of the boat) + VAT (country tax) + APA (operating and provisioning expenses). The cost is the weekly rate for the charter. The VAT and APA are calculated on the cost of the boat and paid in addition to that base price. The APA covers: fuel, water, food, licenses, alcohol, and any specific items you would like provided to you. APA money that is not used for provisioning would be reimbursed to you- or, if you spend over the amount, they would charge you. The Captain keeps track of expenses and would let you know if you’re reaching your APA limit. This is the industry standard for the region.
Caribbean Terms or Caribbean Inclusions refer to all-inclusive rates. These boats are typically catamarans and monohulls and are found in the Caribbean.
Most (but not all) motor-yachts and sailing vessels in the Med are Med Rate terms.
The yachts featured on our website will specifically state which type of pricing they offer.

CAPTAIN
Luka Jakir
Last season holds special significance for Luka as he fulfilled his long-term goal of becoming a captain. Now with a successful season under his belt as a captain and following 15 years of dedicated service in the maritime industry he eagerly anticipates next season. From a young age, he's been immersed in the sea, learning the ropes alongside his brother and the crew. Currently studying at the Faculty of Maritime Studies, Luka is committed to delivering top-notch service, prioritizing guest satisfaction above all else. That is a principle he upholds with unwavering commitment. Collaborating with the crew, he aims to elevate the onboard experience, striving for excellence with each voyage. Beyond his duties onboard, Luka harbors a profound enthusiasm for automobiles and motorcycles, finding joy in exploring the intricacies of engines and the thrill of the open road. Additionally, he loves sports, particularly football, which serves as a source of camaraderie and recreation in his leisure time.
CHEF
Ivan Klismanic
When you step on board Tajna Mora and Ivan greets you with a warm smile and perhaps your first taste of something delicious, you’ll instantly know you’re in great hands and that your holiday has truly begun. As the Chef on board, Ivan believes that food is one of the most genuine ways to connect with guests-through authentic flavours, creativity, and care. His philosophy is simple :every dish should make feel guests appreciated and at home. After graduating from hospitality school and gaining experience in various bars and restaurants, Ivan wanted to take his passion to the next level. Life at sea offered him the perfect balance-the chance to meet new people around the world and to showcase traditional Mediterranean cuisine in his own way. Unlike in busy restaurants, life aboard Tajna Mora allows him to prepare each meal with patience and dedication, tailoring the experience to every guest individually. Now, after six years on board, Ivan has become an essential part of the Tajna Mora family.

Guest Reviews
August 2025
“The boat was beautiful. But the hospitality and attitude of the crew was exceptional! They were quick to help, considerate, and a whole lot of fun. Also, their knowledge of the places we visited and willingness to arrange outings and advise us made everything better.“
July 2025
“We had an incredible week on Tajna Mora. We spent more time on the boat at remote spots with incredible coves. The crew, as always, was amazing. Did I tell you how much we love these guys! They went above and beyond, arranging an early birthday dinner for me at the lighthouse on Susac Island. It will be a birthday that will always be remembered!“
June 2025
“Luka, you and your crew made our trip the best! We have never experienced anything like it before, and we will forever be fans of you, your crew, and Tajna Mora. You are a wonderful captain and host. Expect us back in 2027!“
We were so very sad to leave! September 2024
My friends and I booked the Tajna Mora to celebrate my milestone birthday, and we were overwhelmed by the comfort and elegance of the boat and gracious hospitality of the crew. Every day Captain Luka helped plan a perfect place to dock and a day of activities that appealed to all the tastes of our group. The meals that were prepared for us on the boat were outstanding, and rivaled the meals we had at highly-rated Croatian restaurants. We had high expectations and they were well exceeded. We were so very sad to leave, and literally waited until the very last minute at the end of our stay to exit the boat. I have no doubt that we will find our way back to the Tajna Mora someday.
We had an absolutely fantastic time! August 2024
Our family had an absolutely fantastic time, and it was so hard to leave! Luka and his team made us feel right at home, and we can't thank them enough for their hospitality. The kids have already started school, and we're all back to work, but we're still reminiscing about the incredible memories we made. Special thanks to Ivan for spoiling us with his culinary talents—it's been tough going back to our own cooking! Luka, you are an incredible young man and a very capable captain. We have no doubt that you have a bright future ahead of you. Zivili!
One of the best gulet experiences we’ve ever had! July 2024
We had a fantastic time! The crew, the boat, and the food were all excellent—honestly, one of the best gulet experiences we’ve ever had, and we’ve been on many. The hotel you found for us was also perfect. We would love to book the same week for 2025.
Most special week we could have ever envisioned! September 2023
Thank you for the most special week we could have ever envisioned. Croatia is an amazing place, and you are all absolute angels, on top of being supreme professionals. Your kindness, attentiveness, and commitment to making our trip memorable have been beyond appreciated. The service and care we received from you exceeded even our high standards. And the food, wow, the food. We may have eaten our way through Dalmatia's best restaurants (A+ recommendations), but our favorite meals of the whole trip were the ones on deck, prepared by Ivan's masterful hands. From all us crazy Americans, we love you!
Every aspect of our voyage exceeded our expectations! August 2023
Thank you so much for making our family vacation such a memorable and special event. Every aspect of our voyage exceeded our expectations. Every minute on board we felt extremely well taken care of. We especially loved our wonderful meals - thank you Ivan! Every place we visited was exceptional - thank you Captain Luka for the recommendations! We are going to miss you all, our Tajna Mora family. We hope to see you again on a future voyage. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the best vacation ever!
We hope to meet again! July 2023
Thank you to you all on the beautiful Tajna Mora for a most wonderful and memorable week for our family. Thank you for sharing all your beautiful country, food, and most of all your kindness and hospitality. Continue your good work. We hope to meet again! Love and blessings!
Best week ever! July 2023
Thanks for the best week ever on Tajna Mora! We had the most incredible time and loved every second of the beautiful boat and the Croatian waters. Definitely feel very lucky to have been able to experience everything we did. Thank you all for being so lovely, helpful, and fun!
Thank you for this unforgettable experience! June 2023
The last week has been the most fun week of my life. The boat experience is amazing. Croatia is beautiful, but what makes the trip so special is how amazing the crew is. I am truly grateful to all of you for everything you do for us. Thank you for this unforgettable experience!

What are "Med Rates" or "Med Terms?"
Med Term pricing is cost (cost of the boat) + VAT (country tax) + APA (operating and provisioning expenses). The cost is the weekly rate for the charter. The VAT and APA are calculated on the cost of the boat and paid in addition to that base price. The APA covers: fuel, water, food, licenses, alcohol, and any specific items you would like provided to you. APA money that is not used for provisioning would be reimbursed to you- or, if you spend over the amount, they would charge you. The Captain keeps track of expenses and would let you know if you’re reaching your APA limit. This is the industry standard for the region.
Caribbean Terms or Caribbean Inclusions refer to all-inclusive rates. These boats are typically catamarans and monohulls and are found in the Caribbean.
Most (but not all) motor-yachts and sailing vessels in the Med are Med Rate terms.
The yachts featured on our website will specifically state which type of pricing they offer.
