Ubi Bene – 44 m Luxury Motorsailer Charter in Bodrum, Marmaris & the Aegean

Ubi Bene is a 44-metre luxury motorsailer built in 2009 and fully renovated in 2020, available for private crewed gulet charter in Bodrum, Marmaris, Göcek and Fethiye. She welcomes 12 guests in five cabins – a master, two VIPs and two triples – with a professional crew of seven.

Cabins and Accommodation on Motorsailer Ubi Bene

Ubi Bene sleeps 12 guests in five en-suite cabins: a master cabin, two VIP cabins and two triple cabins. Her 2020 renovation gave every cabin a fresh, bright and comfortable finish for your luxury yacht charter in Turkey.

Life on Board: Space and Sunsets

Ubi Bene’s wide decks are perfect for outdoor living: a large aft lounge and dining area, cushioned deck lounges and plenty of sunbeds. Sunsets at anchor on her deck are among the highlights of every charter.

A crew of seven looks after every detail, with fresh Turkish cuisine prepared on board every day.

Turkish Cuisine and Dining on Ubi Bene

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