Welcome aboard the Ponant, a luxury sailing ship by the French-speaking cruise company, Ponant. This exceptional ship was built in France in 1990, in Villeneuve-la-Garenne. The only sailing ship from the Ponant fleet carries 64 passengers in bright and intimate spaces spread over 12 meters wide and 88 meters long. On board, luxury is felt on the 4 decks as well as inside the 32 sea view cabins.
The modest size of this 5-star yacht allows it to drop anchor in ports and coves that are inaccessible to big boats. A French-style "private yachting" atmosphere is palpable both inside and outside the boat: your luxury cruise will give you sumptuous moments on the spacious 400 m² sun deck, among others. You will appreciate the restaurant terraces, the marina, the sophisticated but sober design.
The luxury of cruising yachting is also reflected in the dining experience, where you will have the opportunity to enjoy the flavors of high quality cuisine in one of the yacht's two restaurants every day. Finally, have fun with a great selection of activities and entertainment, such as gastronomic workshops and water sports. You will enjoy your luxury cruise on board the Ponant and make unforgettable memories !
