Lady Christa – 36m Luxury Gulet Charter in Bodrum with Seabobs

Lady Christa is a 36-metre luxury gulet, built in 2007 and completely renovated in 2021, where every detail has been thought through for a perfect blue cruise. Modern, spacious cabins, an air-conditioned lounge and a large sun deck give her a contemporary feel on classic gulet lines.

Sailing from Bodrum with a crew of six and five en-suite cabins for ten guests, she also carries a superb toy box – including two Seabob F5s – making her a standout luxury gulet charter in Bodrum for active families and friends.

Cabins and Accommodation on Gulet Lady Christa

Lady Christa’s five cabins – one master, two doubles and two twins – each have a private shower and toilet, air conditioning and their own TV and music system. The 2021 renovation brought fresh, modern finishes throughout.

Life on Board: Seabobs, Sunsets and Five-Star Service

Few gulets match Lady Christa’s water-sports line-up: glide under the surface on a Seabob, ski or wakeboard behind the 130 HP Joker, or paddle quietly into a hidden cove. Back on board, the big sun deck and shaded aft table are made for long, lazy hours.

A crew of six looks after every detail, and the indoor lounge offers a cool, air-conditioned retreat with TV and music in the heat of the day.

Turkish Cuisine and Dining on Lady Christa

Turkish cuisine is one of the highlights of a gulet charter in Turkey. On board Lady Christa, 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.
