Gulet Selection

Our portfolio of Turkish gulets focuses on the luxury and super luxury / VIP categories.

The main features of our luxury and super luxury / VIP gulets in Turkey are: A strong and seagoing construction, powerful engines for maximum cruising comfort, the utilization of high-quality materials, sophisticated technical equipment in accordance with today's safety standards and comfortable accommodation with a tasteful interior design, en-suite bathrooms and air-conditioning.

Most of our luxury and super luxury gulets accommodate from 8 to 12 guests in 4 to 6 double cabins, some of our luxury gulets can accommodate even more people in 8-9 cabins, the ideal choice for families with many children and large groups of friends of up to 18-20 people.

Accommodation is usually in double or twin cabins, sometimes triple cabins with double and single bed, always with their own private bathrooms. All our gulets feature generators and air-conditioning (either part-time or full time).

Dining is usually around a large table on the aft deck. Usually there is a cushioned reclining area at the stern and sun mattresses for sunbathing on the superstructure. Deck areas are shaded by sun awnings. Some gulets have an additional small seating area forward, the perfect place for enjoying a cocktail at sunset and from where you have the best view during navigation. Galleys are fully equipped with cooking and cooling facilities, including an icemaker, crew accommodation is separate.

The equipment on board varies, but all have safety equipment according to official regulations, VHF radio/telephone, mobile telephone, a tender for taking you ashore in anchorages, a passarelle or gangplank, for safe and easy disembarking in marinas and at town quays as well as a swim ladder with small platform for easy access to the water. Entertainment equipment and water sports equipment aboard different gulets will vary but all have a music system on deck as well as snorkelling equipment and fishing gear.

Our luxury and VIP super luxury gulets are either brand-new or perfectly maintained and in immaculate conditions. Some of our gulets have excellent sailing abilities and if proper sailing during your gulet cruise is an important aspect for you, please let us know so that we can recommend you the appropriate boats.

Every year we personally inspect the gulets of our highly selective portfolio and meet owners, captains and crews in order to make sure that our high-quality standards are met at any time. Furthermore we always inspect newly launched and refitted Turkish gulets and select the best boats with best crews for inclusion in our portfolio. In this way we have always first-hand knowledge of the Turkish gulet charter market and can match and recommend the right gulet to meet your personal requirements for your private charter in Turkey.
