Her Story

Derya Deniz is a classic Turkish gulet of 23.95 metres in length and 6.85 metres of beam, built in 2008 and comprehensively renovated in 2021 to the highest contemporary standards of comfort and style. Her generous proportions and deep draft of 3.10 metres speak to the timeless craftsmanship of the Turkish gulet tradition, while her 2021 refit has elevated every interior and exterior space to meet the expectations of today's discerning charter guest.

Power is provided by twin IVECO engines producing a combined 560 HP, offering reliable and comfortable passage-making throughout the Aegean and Mediterranean. Two KOHLER generators rated at 22 kVA each ensure that all onboard systems — including air conditioning across all cabins and the saloon — operate with unfailing efficiency throughout each sailing day and well into the evening.

Derya Deniz is fitted with solar panels, a watermaker for genuine self-sufficiency at sea, and a full suite of connectivity and entertainment technologies including vessel-wide WiFi and satellite smart televisions in every cabin and the saloon. Her weekly cruising range of 100 to 110 seamiles allows guests to explore the most rewarding anchorages along the Turkish coast at a leisurely, unhurried pace.

The gulet's four professional crew ensure that every detail of each day is attended to with warmth and discretion, from early morning coffee to late-evening dining under the stars. Derya Deniz is a vessel that rewards those who appreciate genuine craftsmanship, considered comfort, and the incomparable freedom of life at sea.

The Onboard Experience

The Art of Living Aboard

Where the sea becomes your private world, and every comfort finds its place.

Derya Deniz has been outfitted with every amenity required for a seamless and deeply enjoyable charter. All five guest cabins and the main saloon are cooled by air conditioning available for up to ten hours each day as standard, with unlimited 24-hour air conditioning available as an optional extra for an additional €1,250 service fee — ensuring comfort throughout even the warmest summer nights. A powerful Bluetooth music system with karaoke capability and a microphone, complemented by a portable Bluetooth speaker, fills the deck and saloon with atmosphere, while satellite smart televisions in every cabin and the saloon provide entertainment at anchor.

The galley is equipped with a full range of coffee machines — filter, espresso, cappuccino, and traditional Turkish — reflecting a thoughtful attention to the rituals of daily life aboard. Bed linens, tea towels, and sunbathing towels are all provided, as is laundry service and a hair dryer in every cabin. Board and card games are available for leisurely afternoons at anchor, and basic fishing equipment is on hand for guests who wish to try their luck.

On the water, Derya Deniz carries a 4.60-metre Joker Boat tender powered by a 60 HP Yamaha outboard, a canoe, a paddle board, snorkels, fins, and masks for reef exploration. An impressive range of powered water toys is available as an optional extra, including a banana boat for two passengers, a Ringo ring, water skis, and a wakeboard — available for hire at €900 per week or €150 per day, with up to three hours of daily use and the first hour of fuel included.

Guest Accommodation

Retreats Beneath the Stars

Five private cabins conceived for rest, privacy, and the gentle rhythm of the sea.

Derya Deniz accommodates ten guests across five well-appointed cabins: two generous master cabins and three double-berth cabins, each thoughtfully designed to offer privacy, comfort, and a genuine sense of retreat. The 2021 renovation has brought fresh interiors and upgraded fixtures throughout, creating spaces that feel light, considered, and thoroughly contemporary while retaining the warmth of traditional gulet joinery.

Every cabin aboard Derya Deniz features its own private en-suite bathroom with WC and shower — an essential luxury when travelling with family or friends. Each cabin is also individually climate-controlled, equipped with a satellite smart television, and fitted with a hair dryer, ensuring that no comfort is overlooked. The combination of two master cabins and three double cabins makes Derya Deniz equally suited to couples seeking a romantic escape and families or groups of friends sharing the pleasures of a Turkish coastal voyage.

The Waters She Calls Home

From Türkiye to Greece — every voyage, a new chapter.

Derya Deniz charts a course through Türkiye and Greece, offering an extraordinary range of coastlines, cultures, and hidden anchorages. Each region brings its own character — from secluded coves to storied harbours — woven together by the timeless rhythm of the sea.

Türkiye

Where East Meets West on Water

Derya Deniz is perfectly sized and crewed for the celebrated cruising grounds of the Turkish Riviera, where turquoise coves, ancient ruins, and vibrant harbour towns succeed one another in effortless variety. Her weekly cruising range of 100 to 110 seamiles allows guests to explore the full arc of the Aegean and Mediterranean coastline — from the sheltered bays around Bodrum and the pine-scented inlets of Göcek to the dramatic cliffs of Fethiye and the storied waters off Marmaris.

Each day brings a new anchorage: perhaps a secluded bay where the water is still and impossibly clear, perfect for paddleboarding, snorkelling, or simply floating in the afternoon sun. Evenings might be spent moored alongside the quay of a harbour village, where fresh fish restaurants and local markets reward those who venture ashore. With four attentive crew and a full complement of water toys, Derya Deniz transforms the Turkish coast into a deeply personal adventure, calibrated entirely to the pace and pleasure of her guests.
