Cabins and Accommodation on Charter Yacht | VERTIGO

Vertigo’s versatile layout sleeps 12 guests in seven cabins: a full-beam master suite on the main deck, a spacious VIP suite on the upper deck, two VIP double suites on the lower deck, two double cabins with Pullman berths and a twin cabin with an extra Pullman – perfect for families with children or mixed groups.

Life on Board: Superyacht Space and Five-Star Service

The newly redesigned upper salon combines a calm white palette with black accents, soft carpeting and bespoke Minotti seating, creating a bright, modern space that flows onto the outdoor decks. Wide sun decks, shaded lounges and al fresco dining areas make the most of every day on the water.

A crew of 11 – including a private chef – delivers round-the-clock five-star hospitality, from breakfast on deck to sunset cocktails and candlelit dinners at anchor in secluded bays.

Gourmet Dining on Vertigo

Turkish cuisine is one of the highlights of a luxury yacht charter in Turkey. On board Vertigo, 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.

Cruising Area: Bodrum, the Turkish Riviera and the Greek Islands
