Accommodation
LOTUS accommodates up to 8 guests in 4 en-suite cabins. Her cabin arrangement is particularly versatile, combining two large principal suites with Double and Twin accommodation for families or mixed groups.
Master Cabin
The spacious Master cabin features a central island bed, lounge area, vanity or working desk, walk-in wardrobe, television and private minibar.
VIP Cabin
The forward VIP cabin offers generous Double accommodation with extensive wardrobe space, television, minibar and private en-suite facilities.
Double & Twin Cabins
One additional Double cabin and one Twin cabin provide flexible accommodation for couples, friends or children. All guest cabins are individually air conditioned and en-suite.
Living Areas & Onboard Comfort
LOTUS stands out for offering several distinct exterior zones despite accommodating only eight guests. Her shaded aft deck is arranged for alfresco dining and lounging, while the foredeck provides open sunbathing space and an elevated upper lounge offers another private relaxation area.
Boutique Gulet for Eight Guests
LOTUS was originally built by Huzur Yat for private use rather than high-capacity charter operation. This is reflected in her unusually generous four-cabin arrangement and the amount of interior and exterior space dedicated to only eight guests.
Her interior combines rich cherry wood with lighter upholstery, panoramic salon windows and distinctive Ottoman-inspired details in the principal cabins.
For guests who want traditional gulet character without the higher guest density of a six-, seven- or eight-cabin yacht, LOTUS offers a particularly attractive balance of privacy and space.
Performance & Sailing
LOTUS is powered by twin MAN diesel engines producing approximately 450 HP each. Unlike many traditional charter gulets, she was also designed with a genuine sailing capability and carries a substantial sailing rig.
Her normal cruising speed is approximately 10 knots, giving her a useful combination of relaxed sailing character and practical motor performance for island-hopping along the Croatian Adriatic.
Tender & Water Toys
LOTUS carries a strong selection of water toys for a boutique four-cabin gulet, with both motorised and non-motorised activities available during the charter.
4.7m Tender
A Pirelli tender of approximately 4.7 metres with a 60 HP outboard supports guest transfers and tender-operated water sports.
Sea-Doo Jet Ski
A Sea-Doo personal watercraft is listed in the current equipment inventory, subject to local regulations, licensing and operating conditions.
Water Ski & Wakeboard

Water-toy inventories may change between charter periods. Jet Ski and tender-operated activities are subject to local regulations, weather conditions and applicable operating costs. Current equipment should be reconfirmed before charter.
