Ultra Luxury Gulets:

Ultra Luxury Gulets are almost like palaces floating on the sea. With lengths ranging between 30–50 meters, wide decks, and elegant designs, they offer the highest level of comfort. Cabins are equipped with king-size beds, and luxury amenities such as private bathrooms and jacuzzis are provided.
