I have to admit, it looks nice and peaceful there. I suppose one thing to note is that some of the horizons are no straight keep an eye on that one. Not sure which camera you've got but I tend to use the focus points as a guage for lining up horizons.  Also remember the rule of thirds there is alot of sky and not alot else.  Sorry to be critical mind no pun intended.

He did say "unedited". A quick edit with any software will be able to straighten the horizon.
btw if you don't have any software, you can edit your photos with this browser based editor (handy while you're on holiday) http://pixlr.com/editor/

Lots of empty space in those shots, which is fine if you have something as a focal point, like the boat in shot 3.
Shot 1 has lots of black in the bottom right corner, but again, you could crop that out

Here's a quick crop of shot 1:

Or you could crop it square:


A quick straighten and crop of shot 3:


Those were done with the Pixlr editor because I'm at work. You really need to go back to the original files so you don't lose quality/detail.
