The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance. Cleaning, tourist tax, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are billed at the base — we confirm the full breakdown when you request a quote.
Charter pricing is famously opaque. Here's everything the operator will charge — mandatory items paid at the base, plus optional add-ons you can opt into.
Solid family choice. The Elifim 11 is a 22-metre gulet with four cabins sleeping eight, perfect for two families or a small group wanting traditional Turkish sailing without feeling cramped. The 2017 build means she's modern enough to have proper amenities without excessive quirks.
Comfort-focused features. Air conditioning throughout, Wi-Fi, a dishwasher, and full snorkeling kit tick the boxes for relaxed cruising rather than roughing it. You've got the basics for both lounging on deck and exploring underwater, plus a coffee maker because nobody wants terrible coffee on holiday.
Zero deposit is rare. The €0 deposit is genuinely unusual in gulet chartering, that's a genuine perk for your wallet upfront, though always read the damage clause carefully in the contract.
Watch the base location. The operator (4U Yachting) is reputable, but the charter base isn't listed here, which matters for your flight connections and transfer time from the airport. Before booking, confirm whether she's based in Bodrum, Marmaris, or elsewhere on Turkey's coast, it'll affect your travel day significantly when you're flying intercontinental.

Based at Bodrum Marina, in Bodrum, Turkey. Elifim 11 is operated by 4U Yachting.
Bodrum Marina sits at the gateway to the Turkish Riviera, with the Greek Dodecanese islands lying just 10-15 nautical miles north across the Aegean. Week one typically involves exploring the rugged coastline south towards Marmaris, island-hopping through sheltered bays, and working with the northwesterly winds that dominate summer sailing. The marina itself offers good facilities and is well-positioned for either a relaxed coast-hugging itinerary or a longer crossing towards Rhodes and the wider eastern Aegean.
