Gulet Anka 35 waits for you in the sparkling waters of Bodrum like a secret waiting to be discovered. Small enough to feel intimately yours, yet perfectly appointed with everything needed for pure contentment, this charming 15-meter vessel offers something increasingly rare in today’s world: a genuine escape into the timeless beauty of the Turkish coast, shared only with those you love most .
As a treasured member of the Gulet World fleet, Anka 35 represents the sweet spot of blue voyage experiences—intimate enough for romance, spacious enough for a small family, and crafted with the kind of traditional care that turns a simple holiday into a lifelong memory .
The Moment You Step Aboard
There’s a particular feeling that washes over guests when they first board Anka 35. Perhaps it’s the warmth of her polished mahogany decks underfoot, or the gentle way she rocks you into a slower rhythm. Built in 2016, she carries the soul of a classic Turkish gulet while offering all the comforts of a modern sanctuary . Her traditional lines honor the master shipbuilders of Bodrum, but her amenities speak the language of contemporary luxury.
You’ll notice it most in the quiet moments—morning coffee watched from the aft deck as the harbor stirs to life, or evening drinks shared on the foredeck as the sun performs its nightly ritual of color. This is a boat designed not for impressing strangers in marinas, but for creating moments that will linger in your heart forever.
Two Sanctuaries, One Floating Home
Anka 35 welcomes just four guests into two master cabins, each thoughtfully positioned for maximum privacy and peace . This is not a vessel of crowded corridors or shared spaces—every inch has been designed to feel generously yours.
Step inside either cabin, and you’ll discover a haven of calm. Queen-size comfort awaits on beds dressed in soft, high-quality linens. En-suite bathrooms feature modern rainfall showers, offering spa-like refreshment after sun-soaked days . Individual climate control ensures perfect temperatures whether you’re escaping the midday heat or curling up after an evening under the stars.
The saloon, while intimate, never feels cramped. Plush seating invites quiet moments with a book or conversation away from the sun. An LCD TV and DVD player offer entertainment when you seek it, but most guests find the views through the large windows—the endless dance of light on water—more captivating than any screen .
Decks That Become Your Living Room
Life aboard Anka 35 unfolds across decks designed for both togetherness and tranquility. The shaded aft deck quickly becomes the heart of your floating home. Here, around a table perfectly sized for four, you’ll gather for meals that become cherished memories. Perhaps a leisurely breakfast as the morning sun paints the harbor gold, or a romantic dinner under a canopy of stars so bright they seem almost close enough to touch .
Forward, a sunbathing area of plush cushions invites pure indulgence . This is where you’ll stretch out with a book you’ve been meaning to read for years, or simply close your eyes and let the gentle rocking of the boat and the warmth of the Mediterranean sun work their magic. As evening approaches, this same space transforms into the best seat in the house for sunset a front-row view of nature’s greatest performance .
When the heat of the day calls for refreshment, the swim platform at the stern offers effortless access to the crystal-clear Aegean. A quick step down, and you’re floating in waters so transparent you can watch fish dart beneath you. No crowds, no noise just you and the sea .
Gentle Adventures, Simple Pleasures
While Anka 35 embraces a philosophy of peaceful relaxation, she also carries the tools for gentle exploration. A canoe invites you to paddle into hidden coves and along rocky shores where larger vessels cannot follow . Discover secret beaches accessible only by water, where you might spend an afternoon completely alone.
Snorkeling equipment reveals a hidden world below the surface colorful fish darting through ancient rock formations, shafts of sunlight penetrating the depths, the quiet magic of the underwater realm . For those who prefer their adventures above water, fishing tackle offers the simple pleasure of casting a line and hoping for luck .
But perhaps the greatest adventure is the simplest of all: floating weightlessly in the Aegean’s embrace, letting the gentle current carry you as you gaze up at an endless blue sky, utterly present in the moment.
Two Hearts Dedicated to Your Happiness
Every yacht has a crew, but Anka 35’s two-member team offers something rarer: genuine, heartfelt hospitality that never feels performative . Your captain and chef/steward work in seamless harmony, their shared purpose ensuring your complete contentment .
Your captain brings years of experience navigating these storied waters. He knows secrets not found in any guidebook—the cove where you’ll swim alone at dawn, the village taverna serving the most authentic mezes, the exact spot where sunset paints the sky most dramatically . More importantly, he listens. Each day’s itinerary flows from your dreams rather than any predetermined route.
Your chef performs daily magic in the compact galley, transforming fresh local provisions into meals that nourish both body and soul . Breakfast arrives with just-baked bread still warm from the oven, local honey golden and fragrant, olives cured in mountain villages. Lunch features mezes bursting with color and flavor—perhaps stuffed vine leaves, creamy hummus, delicate börek. Dinner becomes an intimate celebration: perhaps fish caught that morning and grilled to perfection, accompanied by wines chosen to complement each course .
Dietary preferences or restrictions? Simply mentioned, gracefully accommodated. This is the level of care that transforms a beautiful boat into a true home.
From Bodrum to Beautiful Horizons
Homeported in Bodrum the pearl of the Turkish Riviera gulet Anka 35 grants you access to cruising grounds that have captivated travelers for millennia . Her compact size offers a distinct advantage: she can anchor in smaller coves and visit charming fishing villages that larger yachts must pass by.
Perhaps you’ll trace the legendary coastline where ancient Lycian tombs meet the sea, their weathered stones telling stories of civilizations long past. Explore the tranquil bays of the Gökova Gulf, where pine forests tumble down to meet crystalline water. Venture toward the nearby Greek islands, where a new culture awaits just across the water different flavors, different history, same stunning sea .
Each day brings a new destination, yet the rhythm remains constant: morning swim in waters accessible only to you, afternoon exploration of somewhere beautiful, evening gathered on deck as the sky performs its nightly masterpiece. And always, as darkness falls and the first stars appear, you’ll feel it—that profound gratitude for this moment, this place, these people.
The Anka 35 Promise
Gulet Anka 35 offers something increasingly precious: a genuine escape into beauty, shared intimately with those you love. Perfect for couples seeking romance or small families desiring quality time together, she invites you to step away from the noise of everyday life and into the gentle rhythm of the sea .
This is not a charter of crowded decks and impersonal service. This is your private piece of paradise on the Aegean—where every moment feels curated just for you, where the warmest memories are made, and where you’ll discover why travelers have been falling in love with these waters for thousands of years .
Come aboard. Your turquoise adventure awaits.
