Melissa

Melissa is a sailing yacht built in 2019 and based at Ece Marina in Fethiye. At 14.06 metres, with four cabins and berths for eight guests, she is sized precisely for the kind of private group that wants genuine exclusivity without the scale of a larger vessel. Every charter on Melissa is a whole-boat booking: the salon, cockpit and deck are reserved entirely for your group from departure to return.

The 2019 build date matters in practice. Below deck, Melissa has the feel of a yacht that has not been worn down by a decade of charter seasons. The cabin arrangement is well considered, the salon functions comfortably for both meals and downtime, and the overall layout suits a range of group types. Two couples looking to share the cost of a Fethiye yacht charter, a family whose older children each need a private berth, or a group of friends planning a week's sailing charter along the Turkish Mediterranean coast will all find the four-cabin configuration works in their favour.

Sailing on Melissa delivers something a motor vessel cannot. Once the sails are drawing and the engine is off, the pace and sound of a passage shift completely. Anchoring at dusk in a sheltered bay, drifting into sleep with only the sound of water against the hull, or holding a steady course under full canvas across open sea: these are the textures of a proper sailing holiday. From Ece Marina you can plan day sails through the coves of Fethiye Gulf, head toward the wooded islands around Göcek, or arrange a longer blue cruise into the calm, protected waters of Hisarönü Gulf. The route and duration are yours to choose.

For anyone comparing a gulet charter with a sailing yacht charter in Fethiye, Melissa offers a straightforward case: a recent build, four private cabins and full group exclusivity in one well-balanced arrangement. Contact us for current availability and a quote matched to your dates.
