Gulet Esperanza is a 26 meter classic wooden gulet based in Bozburun, south west Turkey. Offering a Bozburun yacht charter for up to a maximum 10 guests, accommodated in 5 cabins. Originally constructed 2003 and undergoing a refit in 2023. She combines a traditional Turkish hull, with cabin interiors and kitchen equipment brought up to current charter standards.
She is classed within our Luxury yacht charter category, a classification reserved for gulets offering private bathrooms in every cabin, a dedicated four-person crew and full board catering as standard.
Accommodation is configured as 1 master cabin and 4 double cabins, sleeping up to 10 guests in total. Each cabin has a private bathroom, air conditioning, a wardrobe and a hairdryer, while the master cabin offers the largest footprint on board and a suite-style finish.
The 6 meter beam provides the interior a solid width for a yacht of this length and the Iveco 360 Hp engine provides a cruising speed of around 8 knots, well suited to relaxed day sailing between anchorages, rather than long open-water passages.
The sunbathing deck is fitted with sunbeds, for guests moving between swimming and resting, and an outdoor dining area with a barbecue setup, allows for meals to be provided in the open air for most of the day. Indoors, a dining table and a fully equipped galley support the full board catering, backed by a wine cooler, ice maker, dishwasher, oven, microwave and coffee machine.
A mini bar, a GPS navigation system on the bridge, plus Wi-Fi across the yacht establish the practical side of life on board.
Esperanza carries a paddle board, kayak, canoe, snorkeling gear and fishing equipment, offering guests a range of options for time spent on anchor. During the evenings on deck, board games, a playing card set, a Bluetooth sound system and portable party speakers are all provided.
USB charging ports and wireless charging units are fitted around the saloon and deck areas, useful over a weekly charter where phones and cameras see regular use.
A crew of 4 runs the yacht, including; the captain, chef and hostess/service duties that come with daily cleaning, housekeeping and bar service, throughout the charter. Full board catering, including all soft drinks, is offered at a set daily rate per person, and guests are free to bring their own alcoholic drinks on board at no extra charge.
Flagged in Turkey, with generator backed by a 22.5 kVA unit, Esperanza runs air conditioning and onboard systems independently of shore power, for several hours a day. Her 2023 refit updated cabin interiors, kitchen equipment and deck furnishings while keeping the character of her 2003 built hull intact.
For groups looking for a five cabin gulet with full crew service, a stocked water sports locker and straightforward full board catering, Esperanza is a solid option, among the private gulets currently based in Bozburun.
Check-in from 15:30, check-out by 10:00 after breakfast. Charters are typically scheduled from Saturday to Saturday. Prices are weekly for the entire yacht.
