M/S Sema Tuana

Sema Tuana is a 32 m gulet for up to 12 guests in 6 en-suite cabins, offering a relaxed gulet charter in Turkey from Bodrum with a crew of six. Built in 2008 and completely refitted in 2017, she pairs a generous 8.25-metre beam with a shallow draft, so she can slip into quiet coves and sheltered bays that larger vessels often cannot reach. Her six cabins, two master suites with queen beds, two doubles and two twins, each have a private bathroom with a power shower, individual remote-controlled air conditioning and their own TV, DVD and music system. Air conditioning runs around the clock in the cabins and indoor areas. On deck there are sunbathing mattresses for all twelve guests, separate indoor and outdoor dining areas and a 4.80 m RIB tender. She suits families, friends and small groups wanting a private yacht with room to spread out.

A week aboard follows the easy rhythm of a traditional blue voyage. Lunch is served at anchor in the shade, the hottest part of the afternoon is spent in the cool saloon or stretched out on the sun deck, and evenings belong to long dinners as the light fades over the bay. With a cruising speed of 10 knots and a maximum of 12, she covers the short passages along the Turkish Riviera comfortably, leaving more of each day for swimming, paddling and exploring by tender. Twin 370 HP engines and two 22.5 kVA generators keep everything running, so guests can simply enjoy the coast of Türkiye.

Life Aboard M/S Sema Tuana

The layout flows naturally between saloon and deck, which makes this gulet charter feel both sociable and relaxing. Inside, the air-conditioned saloon offers comfortable seating with a TV, DVD and sound system, a welcome retreat when the sun is at its strongest. Separate indoor and outdoor dining areas mean meals follow the weather rather than a fixed plan: alfresco lunches on deck on calm days, a sheltered table inside when the breeze picks up.

Above, the large sun deck carries enough sunbathing mattresses for all twelve guests at once, so nobody has to negotiate for a spot in the sun. A side boarding ladder makes it easy to step down for a swim straight from the yacht. Daily housekeeping keeps cabins and living areas fresh throughout the week, and Wi-Fi is available within the charter area for those who need to stay in touch.

Cabins and Accommodation

Six cabins give twelve guests genuine privacy, and the mix of layouts suits couples, children and friends sharing. Every cabin is en-suite, with a power shower unit and a push-flush toilet, and has individual remote-controlled air conditioning plus its own TV, DVD and music system.

• Two master suites: queen-size beds, en-suite bathrooms and individual climate control.
• Two double cabins: double beds with the same en-suite comfort and in-cabin entertainment.
• Two twin cabins: two single beds each, a practical choice for children or friends sharing.

Crew and Service

A crew of six looks after guests on board: the captain, a chef and deckhands, all housed in separate crew quarters so the guest areas stay private. The chef works from a fully equipped galley and prepares meals on board each day, while the deckhands look after the tender, the decks and daily housekeeping.

Water Toys and Leisure

Sema Tuana carries a varied selection of water toys that turns each anchorage into a place to play. Water skis suit beginners and confident skiers alike, stand-up paddleboards and canoes are ideal for exploring the shoreline at your own pace, and snorkelling gear opens up the clear water below the hull. Fishing equipment is on board for those who prefer a quieter afternoon with a line in the water. The 4.80 m RIB tender takes guests ashore to beaches, villages and waterfront restaurants.

Who Is Sema Tuana Ideal For?

Families and Multi-Generation Groups

Two twin cabins alongside the master suites and doubles make it easy to keep parents and children close. The shallow draft gives access to calm, sheltered bays for swimming, and the toys keep every age group busy.

Friends’ Getaways and Celebrations

A sun deck with space for everyone at once, separate dining areas and a chef cooking on board make Sema Tuana well suited to birthdays, reunions and celebrations shared by twelve friends.

Young Groups on a Blue Voyage

Water skis, paddleboards, canoes and a 4.80 m RIB tender suit friends who want active days, swim stops and sunset dinners on deck.

Corporate Retreats and Team Charters

Six en-suite cabins with individual air conditioning give every guest comparable comfort, which helps when planning a small team retreat or incentive trip.
