Yacht Description
New-build Samana 59. SOLOMAR is a 2025 Fountaine Pajot Samana 59 sailing catamaran, set up to sleep 8 guests in 4 en-suite cabins. If you want modern lines and that brand-new-boat feeling, this is the clean way to get it.
Deck life, sorted. The wide-beam catamaran layout gives you multiple outdoor “zones” without anyone feeling exiled. Flybridge for sunpads under the hard top, aft cockpit for lazy lunches, and a foredeck lounge (plus two trampolines) for doing absolutely nothing. Perfect.
Easy water access. A central hydraulic swim platform turns the stern into a proper beach terrace for swim stops and quick resets between activities. In and out. Repeat.
Toys for all ages. SOLOMAR carries an 8-person tender with a 60hp outboard, plus stand-up paddleboards, a wakeboard, adult water skis, snorkeling gear, and a Seabob to keep the “just one more run” crowd busy.
Comfort stays non-negotiable. All four guest suites are queen-bed cabins with private en-suite bathrooms, backed up by air conditioning and Wi-Fi when you need to rejoin the real world for five minutes.
Broker Review
Onboard visit
SOLOMAR is a real find for foodies. Chef Iris is a master of seafood — think octopus on crisp rice paper and tuna sashimi with wasabi oil and chili mayo. The onboard 'grandma's table' theme is a sweet touch, pairing a wine-making kit and herbal-infused rakia for an authentic, high-end taste of Croatia. The flybridge rounds it out nicely, with both a big seating area and sunbeds.

Charter Reviews
The Solomar is a beautiful sailing yacht, extremely well designed & appointed. Coastal Croatia is absolutely stunning, whether we were in a beautiful town or gorgeous bay/lagoon all to ourselves.
However, what really made this trip special was the incredible crew.
Capt. Marko kept us safe at all times, he communicated with us everyday about our wishes and created the perfect itinerary. He answered all of our endless questions about sailing, always with a smile. He is a great man!Chef / First Mate Iris has incredible culinary skills & kept us full & happy with endless Croatian dishes for breakfast, lunch, dinner & all day fun snacks. She was so kind to 9 month old Casey - who also loved her specially prepared foods (he sure did flirt with her too).Andrea has also been a happy smiling delight. She is so bright & cheerful & is constantly striving to make sure we are happy. She sets a beautiful table & always maintains the gathering areas as well as our cabins.
Trip of a lifetime!! Thank you,
We loved the boat, the food, the drinks, the trips and especially Marko, Iris and Ema! We would love to live her all year long! Julie
Thank you to Emma, Iris and Marko for such an unforgettable trip! The best food, drinks, places visited and company. Hope to come back soon. Many many thanks Caroline.
Thank you so much for an unforgettable trip Ema, Marko and Iris. Thank you for the most incredible service and the kindness! Thanks Marko for the sailing and wake, Iris the most talented chef and Ema for the best fun drinks (including Matcha!) Hope to come back, Maria.
Our family has a truly fantastic experience aboard Solomar. The boat was impeccably designed and very comfortable. Marko, Iris and Ema made our trip special in every way, from taking out kids tubing, cliff jumping, preparing healthy and delicious meals, and providing wonderful service. The trip would not have been the same without them. We hope to return aboard Solomar and explore more of beautiful Croatia.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart. This will be a week to remember. Thank you for the endless activities like snorkelling, paddle boarding and knot timing. Thank you for keeping us all so well fed with delicious sea food and veggies as well as smoothies and desserts. You are the best crew we could have asked for! Emma
I had a great time on board Solomar! I joined the trip with only one full day left, but despite that I was able to enjoy tons of fun activities like snorkelling, tubing and paddle boarding. I found the food to be delicious and particularly enjoyed the octopus. Now heading off the boat, I am excited to see what else Croatia hold. Joseph
I had a very fun time on this trip. Not only was the food great but the service was so good, I felt like everything I asked for was on board. I really appreciated all the fish and meals we were fed. It really let us immerse ourselves into Croatian culture. The sailing was so awesome. Marco took us almost everyday to go tubing and someone fell off every time! This trip was everything I could have asked for and more. Ezra.
Thank you so much Solomar for all the fun that came with this trip. This boat was packed with good food and dun activities which I enjoyed a lot! I loved tubing with Marco and swimming in numerous caves. I found the cliff jump really fun as well. Thank you Solomar!! Elliot (son)
Thank you Solomar crew for always being there to help with something. Thank you Marko for bringing us places and taking us tubing. Thank you Ema for being around the boat and making us delicious smoothies. Thank you Iris for making us meals and being nice. Henri (young son).
Dear Crew, Thank you for letting us stay on the wonderful boat in Croatia! We all enjoyed it! Thank you for always getting us what we needed. I'm so happy we get to be one of the first on the boat! from Eloise (young daughter)
