If you’re looking for a holiday where you can be pampered, relax and have great conversation in a beautiful part of the world then look no further than this unique wellness cruise.

Massage Cruise Sept 2017

If you’ve been on a gulet cruise before you’ll already know that it’s such a relaxing experience. All of your senses repairing themselves as you listen to the sound of waves gently lapping the side of the boat, or laughter from your travel companions; feel the sun on your face or a gentle breeze over your body as you have an afternoon nap; see the beauty of the mountains, forests, wildlife and turquoise sea; smell the pine forest and essential massage oils; as for taste, well that would be the wonderful food we provide using recipes from the Ottoman kitchen.

See the sunrise as we leave for our early start, cruising for around 3 hours towards the Fethiye Gulf. We will anchor at Adali Bay for breakfast. Later in the morning we will move on to Manastir (Monastery) Bay, also known as Cleopatra’s Bay and see the beautiful underwater ruins.  

DAY 4 BEDRI RAMI—KIZIL ADA

DAY 8 MARMARIS
Our last breakfast in port and then it is time to say goodbye until we meet you again.

Our itinerary is flexible and open to change but we hope this example describes a little glimpse of our beautiful coastline.

*Cruise will start/finish in Marmaris or Fethiye

*Both Fethiye and Marmaris use Dalaman airport

As if laying on the deck under the awnings and blue skies  wasn’t enough, a qualified Massage Therapist joins us onboard to give the ultimate week of indulgence.

You’ll be wonderfully spoilt with 4 massage treatments including a Full Body Massage. She will consult with you to see whether you have any specific areas that need some attention or whether you simply need massages for rest and relaxation.

Treatments will generally take place on a massage bed on deck, so you can lie back, relax and listen to the sound of waves gently lapping the side of the boat as all the stresses and strains of daily life dissolve away.

In between cruising, the boat will be moored in small coves and bays so you can enjoy swimming, snorkelling or just floating in the warm, clear turquoise Aegean sea. Or just spend time relaxing with a good book and interesting conversation.

 

Cabins on a gulet are smaller than you’d expect in a hotel but larger than a sailing yacht. They are handcrafted from mahogany, oak, pine and teak, clean and have a small wardrobe with a little storage for luggage. 

Every cabin has a private en-suite bathroom with toilet,  shower and hot water in the evenings. One bath towel and one hand towel are provided, please bring your own beach towel.

With plenty of sunbeds on the fore and aft decks choose how to relax; sunbathing, reading, chatting or perhaps you’ll even sleep here under the stars. Meals are usually taken on the aft deck where you have a different view for almost every meal.

There’s a well-stocked bar with reasonably priced soft and alcoholic drinks. Please do not bring your own drinks onboard.

*IMPORTANT NOTE: Air-conditioning can be in use up to 8 hours daily, the use of A/C in harbours is strictly forbidden. Depending on sea and weather conditions, Meridian Travels & Yachting reserves the right to make necessary changes to the tour itinerary to ensure the safety and comfort of our guests. The Captain’s decision is final.
