Goolets’ Story (so far)
Goolets, created 20 years ago by Mitja and Alenka, was born out of their fascination with gulets, traditional Turkish wooden sailing boats. They meticulously crafted the perfect charter holiday, assembling every detail to ensure a seamless experience tailored to their customers’ wishes.
How Goolets Became the Number 1 Gulet Specialist in the World
Since its inception, Goolets has grown into one extended family, now comprising over 25 dedicated yacht charter professionals. The initial vision was to become the largest gulet-specialized charter agency globally, and today, Goolets boasts a fleet of 300+ gulets from Turkey, Croatia, Italy, Greece, Spain, and the Maldives.
Goolets’ Shift Into Luxury Yachting
Over the past eight years, Goolets has transformed into the luxury yachting segment, expanding beyond gulet-type vessels. This evolution led us to introduce an entirely new class of charter yachts in Croatia, beginning with the pioneering superyacht Freedom. Purpose-built for comfort, space, and elevated service, these vessels broke the traditional 12-guest limitation. Today, yachts such as Freedom, Bella, Ohana, Riva, and others can accommodate up to 36 guests while offering high-end cabins, expansive salons, and a full suite of luxury amenities that rival those of the world’s finest superyachts.
A New Chapter in Innovation
Building on this momentum, we went a step further by unveiling a new class of charter vessels: luxury motor-sailing yachts, such as Maxita, Nocturno, Dalmatino, and Anima Maris, combining the elegance of sailing yachts with the comfort and amenities of modern motor yachts. These 40-meter yachts, exclusively available for charter in Croatia, can accommodate up to 12 guests, feature premium amenities, and offer exceptional value – delivering a true luxury yacht experience at a fraction of the cost of traditional superyachts.
Reaching New Heights: The Future of Luxury Megayachts
Pushing the boundaries once more, we’re entering a new era of chartering with next-generation megayachts – led by Bello, launching in 2026. Offering greater space, comfort, and design than traditional superyachts, Bello sets a new standard with its beach-club pool, elevated Jacuzzis, glass elevator, full spa, and seamless indoor–outdoor lounges. With refined suites, extensive watersports, and a family-friendly layout, it represents the future of ultra-luxury yachting.
Our story is one of constant reinvention, driven by passion, vision, and a commitment to elevating every guest’s experience. With each new yacht we introduce, we move closer to reshaping what luxury on the water truly means. If you would like to get to know us even better, click here.
