What Is a Conservative Yacht Holiday?

“Conservative Yacht Holiday” is the name of a special segment that has become well established in Turkey over the last 4–5 years.

In short: It is a type of holiday where, in addition to comfort and luxury, privacy is also at the forefront.

Basic Principles

- The yacht is rented entirely for your private use.

- A calmer route is planned, away from the crowded marina culture.

- Sunbathing, swimwear, and indoor privacy are especially taken into consideration.

- On the yacht, non-alcoholic menu planning is generally preferred. (It is not mandatory, but this is usually requested in this segment.)

Why Is It Different?

On a regular gulet/motor yacht holiday, people live comfortably on the deck. Bikinis and shorts are mixed. Bays can be crowded, and music and entertainment are as you wish.

In a Conservative Yacht Holiday:

- Under normal conditions, yacht cabins can be rented separately to different guests, whereas on a conservative holiday, the yacht is rented exclusively for you.

- While clothing styles are normally more open, on a conservative holiday they are more restricted, and sunbathing areas are customized.

- Instead of crowded bays, more isolated and quiet ones are preferred.

- On a regular yacht holiday, alcohol, music, and entertainment are at the guests’ discretion; on a conservative yacht holiday, this entertainment style is more limited.

Who Prefers It

- Families

- Honeymoon couples

- Families with children

Price Difference

Prices may be slightly higher compared to regular yachts. The reasons for this are that the yachts are designed to suit conservative yacht holidays, the crew is trained to provide a more polite service, and the sailing distances required for the planned routes.
