Daphne Sail Reviews 30

Daphne-S is very nice boat. Everything is in good order, everything works really well. It was impressive to have 220 volts all the time with no generator (I did not expect that). Highly recommended for future sailors. thank you Daphne-Sail team for good service!

Hello Selim,
First of all, thank you very much for the excellent support. Although the Esen Mila is an older ship, her standing and running rigging are in excellent condition, and she sails very well. The anchor gear with 80 metres of chain is also in excellent condition. The onboard power supply and appropriate batteries are particularly noteworthy – it has never been necessary to obtain external power. However, the various ageing details, such as the compass, echo sounder, log, stove and furniture fittings, require special attention. We would be happy to charter again.

We (2 adults and 4 children) have one week sailing(18.10-25.10.2025).
The boat was very comfortable.
Selim very helpful.
Waters around - beautiful, wether - good, Ece marine - very good)

Very good experience. Excellent service from Daphne Sail. All formalities done with a lot of trust and great empathy from Selim. Gave us very valuable advices.
Maybe next year I will rent again this boat for 3 weeks.

We had a truly wonderful 3-night, 4-day holiday aboard the EsenMila under the Daphne Sail organization. From the moment we arrived, the team welcomed us warmly and made sure everything ran smoothly. Any small issues that came up were handled quickly and professionally with practical solutions. The technical crew was highly skilled, attentive, and genuinely helpful throughout our stay. The boat itself was in excellent condition very well maintained and felt almost brand new. This was a fantastic experience from start to finish, and we highly recommend Daphne Sail to anyone looking for a seamless and enjoyable sailing vacation. You can book with complete peace of mind

Feeling the support of the company behind us was greate.
Whenever we had a problem, they quickly recovered.
Solar panels were good, no need for port electricity.
Thanks to Captain Selim especially, and owner Kenan Bey, and Sibel Tas for their hospitality and promot responses.

We had a great 2 week sail on a dufour 425. Boat was in good condition and check in/out was very smooth. Team was available at all times if we had questions. Happy overall.

Really great sailing week! Daphne S is Dufour 405 in a very good condition after refit. Both sails are new, all the ropes are soft and clean, also the boat itself is very easy to maneuver. Everything inside was working well plus there are several things for the additional comfort, such as microwave and fridge pump, and for nice evenings, like underwater blue light.

The boat was ready and clean pretty early on Saturday, so we managed to sail already in the evening. And also bat's "parking lot" in ECE marina is located very well. Selim, the manager, was very helpful and ready to advice, if needed.

I can definetely advice this company and the boat, this is one of the best experiences actually.

We picked our boat very late on the Sunday morning and I was a little bit shocked to find no welcome pack onboard. No water, no tea bags or coffee and no creamer or milk which didn't go down very well with the crew.
The next day we checked in on the boat and I was pleasantly surprised to find the boat had new sails, new sheets and a new engine and was generally in very good condition for a boat of its age.
The shore manager Selim was great at communicating with us throughout our holiday and in fact dealt beautifully with a problem we had with a carrier for the Genoa fixing it timely.
The boat we chartered was Daphne S and it sailed brilliantly.
All in all we had a fantastic weeks sailing.
Thanks to Selim and his team for ensuring our boat was in great condition

I had a very positive experience with Daphne Sail. The office was very friendly to communicate with and was very accommodating to all sorts of my requests.

The operations manager Selim is super friendly and extremely helpful, he answers any queries almost instantly and literally provides a 24 hour support - this is very very much appreciated!

The boat we chartered was Esen Mila (Dufour 425). The boat is very spacious and also very speedy when under the sails. She picks up speed very quickly.

I can certainly recommend Daphne Sail for anyone, who wants to have a good sailing vacation in Turkey.

Very nice company with excellent maintaned boats and friendly crew. I highly recommended Daphne Sail charter company if you want start you cruise from Fethiye or Göcek

Boat Daphne-S was in very good condition, and fully met our requirements. Fresh sails, dinghy, ropes, well-maintaned engine, etc.
Daphne Sail team was very friendly and helpful, and solve all our questions. Check-in was long only due to my obsession to check everything, and Selim was very patient answering my questions :)
Thank you for the good experience, and hope to see you again!

The comunication with the charter company was great, taking and returning the boat was super easy and friendly. We would definitivelly come again!

Daphne-S was delight to sail especially with a reasonably novice crew. She was in a great condition on handover
The communication before and during the charter was excellent
We had a great time sailing around the bay. The only downside of the trip was Gocek marina which was very expensive

It was my first time as a captain. Check-in was very smoothly. Selim was answering to all my questions what/where is located. During the week Selim was available for any questions. Esen Mila is not new boat but interior looks much better than most of the one-year boats. In total the boat is very well equipment and maintained.

From my point of view just one thing could/should be improved. I made a mistake and decided to fill in diesel on Saturday. I had to spent a 3.5 hours in the queue to fuel station and used VHF a lot of times and using handheld VHF could be very useful.

Finally I'd like to say thanks to Selim again :)

Staff are very helpful and friendly, specially Selim. The check in and check out process was quick and timely.
Esen Mila was in good condition and well presented.

This was my first experience as a captain, so I am very glad that I chose this company. The manager Selim's work was excellent, he answered all questions quickly and was always ready to help. Everything is fine on the boat itself, no complaints. Yes, there were minor problems with the interior of the cabin, but this did not affect our holiday in any way. 5/5 - I recommend!

Selim is so kind! It was surprised, that I can write him and recieve the answer amideatly. He halped us by whatsApp every time we ask.
Daphne-s is very good and comfortable yacht. We traveled with friends for two weeks and all of them was exited by this trip.

Amazing week chartering a yacht from Daphne Sail out of Fethiye. Firstly a great location to start a sailing holiday, amazing boat, great value for money and really appreciated the quick and timely support for the whole hire with any questions we had. Friendly, helpful and great communication. My first time chartering a yacht, would recommend and would use again.

We had an amazing trip on the Daphne Sail's boat Daphne S. The charter company representatives are very friendly and helpful. Selim is a great man. All communication was proceeded fast and easy through WhatsApp. Check-in and check-out went fast and smooth. The yacht was free on the previous week so they let us start earlier for free.
The Daphne S is in good condition and fully equipped. She is really comfortable even for my height (193 cm). We had a little technical issue with a speed indicator but it was quickly fixed by mechanics in the Ece Marina, which were sent by Selim.
Thanks again for a great service!
