Primadonna is a 21-metre traditional Turkish gulet, built in 1998 and refitted in 2025. With 3 en-suite cabins for up to 6 guests and a crew of 3, she offers a relaxed, private way to explore the bays of Turkey’s Aegean and Turquoise Coast. A private gulet cruise on Primadonna means the whole yacht, her crew and the route are yours alone – no shared tables, no strangers, just your family or friends and the turquoise water of the Aegean and Mediterranean.
A Primadonna gulet charter combines wide teak decks, a shaded table for the whole group and simple, home-cooked Turkish food – ideal for couples and small families. She can start her week from Bodrum, Marmaris, Göcek or Fethiye. Whether you dream of the pine-covered bays of the Gulf of Gökova, the wild coves of the Bozburun peninsula, the Twelve Islands of Göcek or the Lycian coast to Kekova, Primadonna is the perfect base for a relaxed blue cruise in Turkey.
Primadonna sleeps up to 6 guests in 3 private cabins, each with its own shower and WC. The cabins are air-conditioned (unlimited hours/day), and bed linen and towels are changed during the week by the crew, so the boat feels like a small floating hotel.

Life on Board: Slow Days and Clear Water
Days on Primadonna follow the rhythm of the sea: breakfast at anchor, a morning swim, a short cruise to the next bay and long lunches in the shade. Evenings are spent on deck under the stars or ashore in a fishing village. Many guests say the best moments of a Primadonna gulet cruise are the quiet ones: a sunrise swim before breakfast, reading in the shade of the awning, or watching the stars from the cushioned deck after a long dinner.
Water toys on board include water skiing, wakeboard, ringo ride, paddleboard, 2 canoes, so there is always something to do between swims.
The chef on Primadonna cooks fresh Turkish and Aegean food every day – mezze, seasonal salads, olive-oil vegetables, grilled fish and meat, and fruit or homemade desserts. Special diets and children’s meals are easy to arrange in advance.
Food is booked as a per-person package: Half Board + 4 Dinners + Soft Drinks – from €610 per person/week; Full Board + Soft Drinks – from €700 per person/week; Gourmet Full Board + Soft Drinks – from €1,000 per person/week. Children under 6 usually travel free and 6–11-year-olds at half price.
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.

Gulet Cruise Routes with Primadonna
Primadonna can start her gulet cruise from four of the most beautiful harbours in Turkey. Each region has its own character, so choosing your departure port is the first step in planning the perfect week on board.
Bodrum & the Gulf of Gökova
Primadonna sails from Bodrum into the sheltered Gulf of Gökova, one of the classic blue cruise routes. Highlights include Orak Island with its crystal-clear water, Cleopatra Island (Sedir) and its golden sand, the green coves of English Harbour and Değirmenbükü, the Seven Islands (Yedi Adalar) and the ancient city of Knidos at the tip of the Datça peninsula. Many guests also add a day on the Greek island of Kos.
Marmaris, Bozburun & the Hisarönü Gulf
From Marmaris, a Primadonna gulet cruise explores the quieter Hisarönü Gulf and the Bozburun peninsula: Kumlubük, Selimiye, Bozburun, Söğüt and the deep blue bay of Bencik. With a transit log you can also cruise to the Greek islands of Symi and Rhodes.
Göcek & the Twelve Islands
Göcek is famous for the calmest water on the Turkish coast. On a Primadonna gulet cruise you can hop between the Twelve Islands, swim at Tersane Island and Cleopatra’s Bath, anchor in Kızılkuyruk and Boynuz Bükü and visit the Byzantine ruins of Gemiler Island – ideal for families and first-time sailors.
Fethiye, Kaş & Kekova (Lycian Coast)
From Fethiye, Primadonna follows the Lycian coast past Ölüdeniz and Butterfly Valley towards Kaş and Kekova, where you can swim over the sunken city and visit the castle village of Kaleköy (Simena). This route combines spectacular mountains, history and some of the clearest water in Turkey.
