Dear Lila

A well-maintained mid-range gulet, Dear Lila operates out of Fethiye and charters privately for groups of up to 12 guests across 6 cabins.

The 6 cabins (2 Master + 2 Double + 2 Triple) each have their own bathroom, keeping things comfortable even for longer charters. The 4-strong professional crew takes care of everything from anchoring in the right spot to serving meals on deck — guests need only show up and enjoy.

Key comforts include air conditioning, Wi-Fi, TV, a sound system, hot water throughout, an ice maker, sun awnings, and sun mattresses on deck, making the cabin a welcome retreat after a day in the sun. Active guests will appreciate the on-board selection: kayaks, snorkelling gear, water skis, ringos, and fishing lines, ready to deploy at each day's anchorage.

Fethiye sits within a natural amphitheatre of mountains that gives the surrounding waters an unusually sheltered character for most of the sailing season. The Twelve Islands at the bay's entrance provide the first anchorages; the coast running south toward Oludeniz opens up more dramatic scenery as the week progresses. Butterfly Valley — accessible only from the sea — remains the most memorable overnight stop for most guests, its waterfall audible from the cockpit in the evening calm.
