Question
Drinks on a rented yacht: what is included, sold or worth asking about
It depends on the boat. The two Kundu Marina yachts include soft drinks; alcohol is not part of their programme, so ask us. The Manavgat gulet and the Side motor yacht sell drinks at the bar and let you bring one bottle of spirits. On the Kumköy yacht and the Side VIP boat, drinks are not included at all.
The Kundu Marina yachts: soft drinks included
On the 12-guest yacht and the 28-guest jacuzzi yacht from Kundu Marina, soft drinks come with the programme, alongside the meal. Alcohol is not part of either programme. If wine or a toast matters to your day, tell us in your request and we ask the boat before you book. We would rather check than have you find out on deck.
The gulet and the motor yacht: a bar, plus your own bottle
The two larger boats in the Side area work the other way. On the wooden gulet from the Manavgat River, drinks are sold at the boat bar and guests may bring one bottle of spirits. The Side luxury motor yacht has the same rule: drinks are sold at the onboard bar, and you may bring one bottle of spirits.
That makes these two the natural choice for a party that wants to drink together. Gulet or motor yacht compares them on group size, route and feel.
Kumköy yacht and Side VIP boat: not included
On the Kumköy yacht, the hub record excludes both soft drinks and alcoholic drinks. On the Side VIP boat from the Manavgat River, all drinks are excluded. Both include lunch, so food is covered, but plan for drinks separately and ask us what is possible before the day.
Alanya: arrange it in advance
On the Alanya private boat, food and drinks are not included unless they are arranged in advance. A freshwater shower is on board, but water to drink is not on our record, so ask us when you book.
Planning a toast or a celebration
If drinks are central to the occasion, start from the boats that sell them and allow your own bottle: the gulet and the motor yacht. Birthdays, anniversaries and proposals on a rented yacht shows what else each boat can arrange, and the comparison table lists the drinks rule for all seven boats in one place.

Questions guests ask
Can we bring a bottle of champagne on the gulet?
The rule on record for the gulet and the motor yacht is that guests may bring one bottle of spirits. Wine or champagne is not mentioned, so ask us and we check with the boat.
Are soft drinks free on the jacuzzi yacht?
Yes. Soft drinks are included in the 28-guest jacuzzi yacht's programme from Kundu Marina, as they are on the 12-guest yacht.
Can we buy drinks on board the Side VIP boat?
All drinks are excluded from the VIP boat's price, and a bar is not on our record. Ask us before the day what you can arrange.
