A closer look
The Grand Salon's Embrace
Step into a voluminous main salon where light pours through expansive windows, illuminating polished wood and soft, inviting furnishings. This is a space designed for convivial gatherings, pre-dinner aperitifs, or quiet contemplation with a book from the ship’s library. The gentle hum of the ocean provides an constant, soothing soundtrack, while the meticulous crew ensure every comfort is anticipated and delivered with understated grace.
Al Fresco Dining
Experience the true essence of Caribbean dining on the expansive aft deck, where meals are served under the open sky. The scent of the sea mingles with the chef's exquisite creations, as you dine with panoramic views of the ever-changing seascape. Whether a vibrant breakfast as the sun rises, or a candlelit supper beneath a canopy of stars, each meal becomes a sensory celebration, perfectly paired with the yacht's natural rhythm.
Sundeck Serenity
Ascend to the sundeck, a haven of blissful relaxation. Plush sun pads invite languid afternoons spent basking in the tropical warmth, a cool drink always within reach from the adjacent outdoor bar. From this elevated vantage point, the ocean stretches boundlessly, offering unparalleled opportunities for dolphin spotting or simply observing the mesmerising dance of the waves, far removed from the everyday.
The Beach Club's Allure
At the stern, the beach club unfolds, transforming into a private oasis at water's edge. This seamless connection to the ocean provides direct access for swimming, sunbathing, or launching an array of water toys. Imagine diving into the crystal-clear Caribbean, returning to a refreshing towel and a bespoke cocktail, all without ever leaving the comfort and privacy of your floating sanctuary.
Cinematic Evenings
As dusk descends, the outdoor movie theatre comes alive, offering a unique cinematic experience beneath the stars. Sink into comfortable seating, wrapped in a soft blanket, as a favourite film plays against the backdrop of the gently lapping waves. Popcorn and gourmet snacks are, of course, on hand, transforming an ordinary evening into an extraordinary memory, shared with loved ones.
Accommodation
Sixteen exquisitely appointed cabins provide a tranquil retreat for up to 32 guests, each a sanctuary of calm and comfort. The layout is thoughtfully designed, ensuring privacy and spaciousness, with an elevator providing effortless access across all decks. Rich textures and natural light define these havens, offering plush bedding and serene en-suite facilities. Whether a couple seeking an intimate escape or a family enjoying shared adventures, every guest finds their perfect haven, ensuring restful nights after exhilarating days at sea.
Culinary excellence is a cornerstone of the onboard experience. The dedicated chef crafts bespoke menus daily, drawing inspiration from the fresh, vibrant produce of the Caribbean and catering to every palate and dietary requirement. Indulge in gourmet delights served in a variety of breathtaking settings, from elegant formal dinners in the main salon to casual al fresco lunches on deck, or intimate breakfasts on a private balcony. Each dish is a masterpiece, presented with flair and paired with an expertly curated wine selection.
Prioritise your wellbeing with the yacht’s comprehensive wellness offerings. The deck Jacuzzi invites moments of blissful immersion, the bubbling waters soothing muscles after a day of exploration. For deeper rejuvenation, the onboard spa provides a tranquil space for bespoke treatments, leaving you feeling utterly refreshed and revitalised. With stabilisers at anchor, the yacht remains remarkably steady, enhancing your comfort and ensuring a peaceful environment for relaxation and repose.
The Caribbean becomes your playground with an exciting array of water toys. Glide across the turquoise waters on paddleboards or explore hidden coves in kayaks. For the adventurous, windsurfers offer an exhilarating ride, harnessing the power of the trade winds.

What a yacht like LE PONANT costs to own — not just to charter
A charter week on LE PONANT is a fixed, all-in number. Ownership of a 84m yacht in this class is a five-year commitment — crew payroll, insurance, class and refit reserves, berthing and depreciation. Our yacht ownership vs charter vs fractional ownership study runs the real five-year cost of a €15 million yacht against the equivalent charter spend, and the most profitable yachts for owners ranking shows how much of that stack charter revenue actually recovers.
