Cabins and Accommodation on Gulet Queen of Datça
Queen of Datça sleeps ten guests in five en-suite suites: a spacious master and a VIP with king-size beds, a double with a queen-size bed and two twin cabins. Every suite is air-conditioned and finished in polished wood.
Life on Board: Space to Spread Out
With 36 metres of teak deck, there is room for everyone: a long dining table under the awning, sofas for lazy afternoons and acres of sunpads on the foredeck. Water skis, wakeboards, kayaks and paddleboards keep the active guests busy.
The crew of six provides five-star service from breakfast to late-night drinks, and the chef creates Mediterranean menus around fresh island produce.
Mediterranean Cuisine and Dining on Queen of Datça
Food is one of the great pleasures of a yacht charter in Greece. On board Queen of Datça, the chef plans every menu around your tastes, using fresh fish, vegetables and herbs bought in local island markets. Mornings begin with a generous breakfast of fresh bread, Greek yoghurt with thyme honey, seasonal fruit, local cheeses, olives and eggs cooked to order. Lunch is served at anchor in a quiet bay – crisp salads, mezes, grilled octopus and fresh pasta – while dinners under the stars feature grilled sea bass, lamb and slow-cooked island specialities, finished with Turkish and Greek desserts and coffee.
Menus are fully flexible: vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal, kosher-friendly and children’s menus can all be arranged in advance, together with your choice of wines, champagne and cocktails. Food and drinks are covered by the APA, so you only pay for what you actually enjoy on board.
Island Tavernas and Beach Clubs – Ashore by Tender
One of the joys of chartering Queen of Datça is stopping for lunch or dinner at the islands’ famous seaside tavernas and beach clubs. 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 on board for a late swim or a nightcap on the flybridge. From waterfront tavernas in Mykonos and Paros to fish restaurants in the Dodecanese villages of Symi and Kos, Aren Yachting can reserve your tables in advance – especially important in July and August.
Cruising Area: Kos and the Greek Dodecanese
Queen of Datça’s home port is Kos, Greece – only a short ferry hop from Bodrum, so it is easy to combine with a stay on the Turkish coast. Her Dodecanese routes take in Kalymnos, Leros, Patmos and the small islands in between. A typical week on board looks like this:
- Day 1 – Kos: Board in Kos harbour, meet the crew and enjoy a welcome dinner on deck.
- Day 2 – Pserimos & Kalymnos: Swim off the sandy bay of Pserimos, then continue to the sponge-divers’ island of Kalymnos.
- Day 3 – Leros: Explore the castle and quiet bays of Leros.
- Day 4 – Patmos: Visit the Monastery of St John and the Cave of the Apocalypse.
- Day 5 – Lipsi & Arki: Tiny islands with turquoise coves and simple fish tavernas.
- Day 6 – Kalymnos west coast: Swim and snorkel beneath dramatic limestone cliffs.
- Day 7 – Kos south coast: Final swim stops on the way back to Kos.
- Day 8 – Kos: Breakfast on board and disembarkation in the morning.
