Meira – 50 m Superyacht Motorsailer Charter in Bodrum, Marmaris & the Aegean

Meira is a 50-metre superyacht motorsailer launched in 2017 and one of the most impressive sailing yachts available for private crewed yacht charter in Bodrum, Marmaris, Göcek and Fethiye. She welcomes 12 guests in six cabins – a master, three doubles and two twins – and pairs the elegance of a classic two-masted luxury motorsailer with true superyacht comfort.

Twin Mitsubishi engines of 1,040 HP each give her a cruising speed of 12 knots and a top speed of 14 knots, so a week on board can cover more of the Turkish Riviera and the Greek islands. With a formal dining room for 12, grand modern artwork and a saloon with the latest entertainment systems, Meira is a flagship choice for discerning guests planning an Aegean charter.

Cabins and Accommodation on Motorsailer Meira

Meira sleeps 12 guests in six en-suite cabins: a spacious master cabin, three double cabins and two twin cabins. Every cabin is air-conditioned and finished to superyacht standards, giving each guest a calm, private retreat on your luxury yacht charter in Turkey.

Life on Board: Superyacht Comfort Under Sail

Inside, the formal dining area seats all 12 guests surrounded by striking contemporary artwork, while the air-conditioned saloon offers deep sofas and a state-of-the-art entertainment system for relaxed evenings. Outside, wide teak decks provide shaded lounging and dining areas aft and generous sunbathing space forward.

A professional crew and private chef take care of every detail, from fresh breakfasts at anchor to elegant dinners under the stars.

Turkish Cuisine and Dining on Meira

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