Motorsailer De Love – 47 m Luxury Gulet Charter in Turkey
De Love is a brand-new 47-metre luxury motorsailer gulet, launched in 2024 and available for private crewed charters on the Turkish Riviera and across the Mediterranean. With seven en-suite cabins for up to 14 guests, a crew of eight and a Jacuzzi on her vast flybridge, she combines the comfort of a superyacht with the timeless charm of a classic gulet charter in Turkey.
Her concept is simple: the space and comfort of a motor yacht with the soul of a sailing gulet. Twin Volvo Penta engines give a cruising speed of 9 knots and a top speed of 15 knots, so you can explore more bays in a week while still enjoying the relaxed rhythm of a traditional blue cruise.

Cabins and Accommodation on Motorsailer De Love
De Love welcomes up to 14 guests in seven en-suite cabins, all located on the lower deck for maximum quiet and privacy. A large master stateroom forward, two VIP cabins and four double cabins give every couple a comfortable retreat, making her ideal for large families, celebrations and groups of friends.

Life on Board Motorsailer De Love
The main deck saloon spans the full width of the yacht, with a large dining table inside and another outside so all 14 guests can dine together. At the stern, a wide bathing platform with a sofa bed and table is the perfect place to step straight into the sea.
Up top, the expansive flybridge is the heart of life on board: a Jacuzzi surrounded by sunbathing areas, a bar and comfortable sofas with coffee tables. A further lounge on the foredeck offers a quieter spot to watch the coastline pass by. A crew of eight provides attentive, superyacht-level service throughout your charter.
