Her Story

Aria stands as a distinguished 27-metre gulet, originally launched in 2001 and comprehensively refitted in 2023 to meet the highest standards of modern luxury charter. With her 7-metre beam providing generous living spaces throughout, this traditional wooden vessel combines authentic Turkish craftsmanship with contemporary comfort and convenience.

Her recent renovation has transformed every aspect of the vessel, from completely refurbished cabins and bathrooms to renewed deck areas, interior furnishings, and a fresh paint and varnish finish. The comprehensive refit ensures that Aria presents herself as a virtually new vessel, ready to deliver exceptional charter experiences along Turkey's spectacular coastline.

Powered by a reliable 360HP engine, Aria maintains comfortable cruising speeds of 8 knots with a maximum capability of 9 knots, ensuring smooth passage between anchorages while maintaining fuel efficiency. Her substantial fuel capacity of 2,000 litres, combined with generous freshwater tanks holding 12,000 litres and an advanced water maker system, provides complete autonomy for extended cruising adventures.

The vessel's technical specifications include a powerful 35kVA generator ensuring uninterrupted power supply, comprehensive electronic navigation systems with radio, compass, and satellite communication capabilities, plus modern solar panels contributing to her environmental efficiency. Her 24-hour climate control system throughout all guest areas ensures complete comfort regardless of weather conditions, while the professional galley features modern cooking facilities including oven, dishwasher, and comprehensive beverage service equipment including Turkish coffee preparation and cocktail facilities.

The Onboard Experience

Life Above the Waves

Where every moment flows with effortless grace and adventure awaits at every turn.

Aria's expansive deck areas have been thoughtfully designed to maximise your enjoyment of Mediterranean life. The aft deck features a comfortable seating group perfect for evening conversations, alongside a dedicated dining table where memorable meals unfold under the stars. A well-appointed bar area ensures refreshments are always within reach, while both upper and side awnings provide welcome shade during the heat of the day.

The forward deck offers its own intimate seating area complemented by luxurious sunbathing cushions, with a retractable awning system allowing you to choose between sun and shade as desired. The upper deck salon provides an elegant indoor dining space with comfortable seating areas adorned with quality carpeting, creating a refined atmosphere for more formal occasions.

For active guests, Aria carries an impressive array of water sports equipment including a single-person canoe for peaceful exploration, two paddle boards for fitness enthusiasts, dual ringo and banana boat inflatables for family fun, plus complete amateur snorkelling gear with masks, fins and snorkels. Amateur fishing equipment is also available for those seeking to catch their own dinner. The vessel's Bluetooth-enabled music system extends throughout both deck and salon areas, ensuring your favourite soundtrack accompanies every moment of your charter, while the salon television provides entertainment during quieter evenings. Traditional Turkish games including playing cards, backgammon and okey are available for social entertainment.

Guest Accommodation

Suites Above the Sea

Six intimate sanctuaries designed for rest and rejuvenation in perfect comfort.

Aria's accommodation comprises six beautifully appointed guest cabins, each featuring 24-hour climate control and individual en-suite bathroom facilities. The layout includes one master cabin providing the ultimate in privacy and space, four comfortable double cabins each with panoramic windows offering stunning sea views, and one twin cabin that can be configured to meet your specific requirements.

Every cabin has been completely renovated during the 2023 refit, featuring fresh décor, quality carpeting, and modern bathroom facilities. The thoughtful design ensures that each guest enjoys privacy and comfort, with ample storage space and individual climate control allowing personal temperature preferences. All cabins benefit from natural light through carefully positioned windows and portholes, creating bright, airy spaces that enhance the sense of connection with the sea.

The professional crew quarters are completely separate from guest areas, ensuring your privacy while maintaining the highest levels of service. With accommodation for twelve guests across the six cabins, Aria provides an ideal platform for family gatherings, groups of friends, or special celebrations requiring both shared social spaces and private retreats.
