Kaptan Bülent beye teşekkürlerimi iletmek isterim.. Sayesinde beş yıldır gittiğimiz Göcek’i yemiden tanıdık, götürdüğü koylar eşsizdi. Önerileri ve aracılığı ile yaptığımız rezervasyonlar harika bir deneyim yaşattı . Teknedeki espresso keyfi de cabası ☺️ Kesinlikle tavsiye ederim

Kaan beyin bize karşı tutumu çok güzeldi, her konuda çözüm odaklı yaklaşması öok iyiydi. teknede varlığını bazen fark etmiyorduk bile mahremiyete önem gösteriyordu çok saygılı biri. Yemekler lezzetliydi. Gezi planı bizi tatmin etti. Tek sıkıntı odaların gece 12-2 arası sıcak olması olabilirdi ama onu da güvertede vakit geçirerek gözardı edebildik.

Mürettebat gayet saygılı, güler yüzlü insanlarda. herhangi bir sıkıntı yaşamadık. Memnun kalmadığımız tek nokta aşçının birçok yemeği ve tatlıyı hazır ürünler kullanarak yapmış olması oldu.

Bu yaz aynı tekneyi iki kere kiraladık, biri yatılı biri günlük oldu. İkisinde de çok keyifli vakit geçirdik, harika koylara gittik. Kaptanımız gerçekten çok ilgili ve işini çok iyi yapıyor, sayesinde çok rahat ettik. Tekne biraz eski ama kesinlikle keyfimizi bozacak bir şey değildi. Biz çok memnun kaldık, gönül rahatlığıyla tavsiye ederim.

Nazım bey çok ilgili ve cana yakın idi. Her zaman destek olabileceği hissini verdi. Her şey yolundaydı. Tek bir konuda geliştirici geri bildirim verebilirim. Tekneyi bir gün önce saat 6 a kadar marinaya getirmek anlamlı değil. 1 gün boşuna ücret ödemiş oluyoruz.
