A mega yacht charter Bodrum can offer straight from the builder is unusual. This is the first Ada 50Z, launched in 2025 by Ada Yacht Works, with an interior by Luca Dini’s Florence studio, 500 gross tons on a fifty-metre hull, twelve guests in six suites and ten crew. She is Marshall Islands flagged and based in Bodrum.
Most of the Turkish charter fleet is a decade old or older, refitted well but built to a different brief. A 2025 delivery is a different animal: current systems, current insulation, current glass, and a layout drawn for how people actually use a yacht now rather than how they used one in 2010. There are perhaps two boats offered for mega yacht charter Bodrum wide that were launched this decade.
The evidence is in the details. Extendable hydraulic wings open the aft deck into a beach club at water level. A plunge pool sits aft, a jacuzzi forward surrounded by sun pads, and a fourteen-metre chase boat handles the tender work rather than a token RIB slung on davits. On a mega yacht charter Bodrum at this level those are the things that separate a new build from a refit.
Luca Dini did the interior, and it is restrained rather than loud — pale timber, dark vertical panelling, stone, and full-height glass on the main deck. Twin MAN diesels of 974 kilowatts each sit below. Nine metres of beam on fifty metres of length gives volume without the slab-sided look that afflicts boats of this size, and it is the reason a mega yacht charter Bodrum aboard her feels wider than her numbers suggest.
The owner’s suite is on the main deck with a private balcony and its own jacuzzi, which is the arrangement you want and rarely get below sixty metres. Five further suites sit on the lower deck: four VIPs and a twin, all en-suite. Six suites is the working number for a mega yacht charter Bodrum taken by more than one family.
Twelve guests across six suites of near-equal standing is the configuration that suits several families or a corporate group, because there is no obvious short straw below decks. A mega yacht charter Bodrum booked for a milestone birthday or a company week works better on this layout than on a boat with one grand cabin and five compromises.
Ten crew for twelve guests is close to one to one, and it is what the boat needs: at 500 gross tons with a beach club, a plunge pool and a fourteen-metre chase boat, the service is a logistics operation as much as a hospitality one. Deploying the wings, launching the chase boat and setting the aft deck for lunch are three separate jobs that happen at once, and a thin crew shows immediately.
A chef is part of the permanent crew and every meal is prepared aboard to a preference sheet taken before the charter. On a mega yacht charter Bodrum at this rate that is assumed rather than sold, and the difference between yachts is what the chef does with the market rather than whether one exists.
Bodrum on a Friday morning supplies the week. Sea bass and bream landed overnight, tomatoes with actual flavour, the sheep cheeses from the Mugla hinterland, figs and pomegranate through September. A chef who works close to that market rather than importing a European card is the one worth having.
Dietary requirements, allergies and preferences belong on the preference sheet before a mega yacht charter Bodrum begins. Provisioning for twenty-two people happens ashore before departure, and the anchorages have nothing.
The best kitchens on this coast cannot be reached by road, and at fifty metres you will lie at anchor rather than alongside for most of the week. The fourteen-metre chase boat makes that a feature rather than a constraint: it is large enough to take the whole party ashore in one run, in weather that would keep a smaller tender alongside.
Cokertme, on the northern shore of the Gulf of Gokova, has a lamb dish named after the village and a row of jetties. Sedir Adası holds Cleopatra beach and a kitchen behind it. English Harbour is one restaurant, one beach, and a bay so enclosed that ships used to hide there. On a mega yacht charter Bodrum the crew radio ahead and the table is waiting when the tender lands.
Aboard, a full bar and a cellar stocked to a brief before a mega yacht charter Bodrum departs. Turkish wine repays attention — Bozcaada whites with fish, Kalecik Karasi from Anatolia with anything off the grill, Okuzgozu and Bogazkere for weight.
Bodrum has an international airport thirty-five kilometres from the harbour and marina berths that take fifty metres without argument. It is the obvious base for a mega yacht charter Bodrum, and it opens two entirely different weeks in opposite directions.
West and south into the Gulf of Gokova: Cokertme, Sedir, Longoz, English Harbour and Seven Islands, sheltered and green and almost undeveloped. North into the Gulf of Mandalya for Didim and the ruins at Iasos and Miletus, quieter water and the better week for archaeology between swims.
Kos lies an hour away with the rest of the Dodecanese beyond it, and her Marshall Islands registry makes the eastern Mediterranean straightforward. Greek crossings need a transit log and passports lodged in advance, handled by the agent. Aquinox also charters from Marmaris Ve Bodrum if a different vessel suits the party.
A fourteen-metre chase boat, a jet ski, water skis, a surfboard, inflatable toys, and snorkelling and fishing equipment. The beach club opens on extendable hydraulic wings; the plunge pool sits aft and the jacuzzi forward among the sun pads. On a mega yacht charter Bodrum with ten crew, all of it is deployed within minutes of the anchor going down.
Length overall 49.90 metres, beam 9.00 metres, 500 gross tons, built 2025 by Ada Yacht Works as the first Ada 50Z. Interior by Luca Dini Design and Architecture, Florence. Twin MAN D2862 LE469 diesels of 974 kW each. Twelve guests in six en-suite suites — a main-deck owner’s suite with private balcony and jacuzzi, four VIPs and a twin — and ten crew. Marshall Islands flag, home port Bodrum.
Daily rates run at EUR 44,300 in May, June, September and October, and EUR 46,500 in July and August, quoted for the whole yacht with her crew of ten. An advance provisioning allowance of thirty per cent and VAT at twenty per cent are applied on top.
The APA covers fuel, food, drinks, harbour fees, transfers and the running costs of the week, drawn against real expenditure with the balance returned at the end. Aquinox sets the whole structure out in writing before any deposit, because a mega yacht charter Bodrum quoted MYBA-style is not directly comparable to an all-inclusive gulet week.
She is a 2025 delivery in her first full charter seasons, and a mega yacht charter Bodrum aboard her in July or August books a year ahead. May, June, September and October offer better availability and, on a boat with this much shade and air conditioning, no loss of comfort. Send your dates and guest numbers to Aquinox Yatçılık for availability, a written quotation and the preference-sheet process the same working day.
