Cabins and Accommodation on Gulet Blue Heaven
Blue Heaven sleeps nine guests in five cabins: a master suite with its own jacuzzi, double and twin cabins and a single cabin – ideal for a family with an older child or a friend travelling solo. All cabins have modern en-suite bathrooms and air conditioning.
Life on Board: Jacuzzi, Deck and Five-Star Cuisine
Few gulets of this size offer a deck jacuzzi – on Blue Heaven it is the perfect spot for an evening glass of wine as the sun sets over a quiet bay. The expansive deck also has a big dining table, sunbathing cushions and a lounge for unwinding under the stars.
Her crew of five – captain, chef, deckhand and two stewards – keeps the service and the cuisine at five-star level throughout your cruise.
Turkish Cuisine and Dining on Blue Heaven
Turkish cuisine is one of the highlights of a gulet charter in Turkey. On board Blue Heaven, the chef prepares fresh, home-style dishes with ingredients bought daily in local markets in Bodrum, Marmaris, Göcek and Fethiye. Each day starts with a traditional Turkish breakfast – fresh simit and bread, village cheeses, olives, tomatoes and cucumbers, honey and clotted cream (kaymak), menemen and eggs cooked to order, served with Turkish tea.
Lunch at anchor brings colourful Aegean mezes – haydari, ezme, stuffed vine leaves, smoky aubergine and olive-oil vegetables – followed by grilled sea bass or sea bream, octopus or chicken şiş. Dinners under the stars feature slow-cooked lamb, kebabs and the catch of the day, finished with baklava, seasonal fruit and Turkish coffee. Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, kosher-friendly and children’s menus are all available on request, and the bar can be stocked with your favourite wines, rakı, champagne and cocktails.
Famous Restaurants Along the Coast – Ashore by Tender
A private yacht lets you combine meals on board with dinners at some of the most famous restaurants on the Turkish Riviera. The captain anchors close to shore and the crew takes you there by tender, waits or returns at the agreed time and brings you back for a late swim or a nightcap on deck. Around Bodrum, favourites include Yalıkavak Marina (home to Nusr-Et, Zuma and Sakhalin), the fishing village of Gümüşlük with seafront fish restaurants such as Mimoza, and chic Türkbükü with Macakızı. Near Marmaris and Datça, guests love the fish restaurants of Selimiye such as Sardunya, Manzara in Söğüt and the restaurants of D-Maris Bay, while around Göcek and Fethiye you can dine at Özcan in Göcek, D’Breeze at D-Resort or Adaia, a bay restaurant reached only by sea.
Many quiet bays in Gökova, Hisarönü and the Göcek islands also have small family-run restaurants with their own jetties, serving fresh fish, gözleme and village dishes. Aren Yachting can reserve your tables in advance – essential in July and August – and plan your route so that every evening ends at the right spot. Restaurant availability depends on the season and reservations.
