A refined blend of Indochine architecture and French elegance shapes the atmosphere on board.
The design focuses on openness, calm tones, and uninterrupted bay views from every suite.
Accommodation remains deliberately limited to 5 large suites, ensuring privacy and attentive service.
Each suite includes air-conditioning, a private bathroom, balcony, and modern in-room amenities.
Shared spaces include a sun terrace, rooftop pool, hot tub, restaurant, bar, and lounge.
Onboard dining highlights Asian and European cuisine, with options for special diets when requested
The ultimate private retreat! With only 5 suites on the whole boat, the service was unbelievably personalized. Our butler took care of everything. The room was massive and the views from the bathtub were unforgettable.
It feels less like a cruise and more like a private floating villa. Tip: Because there are so few guests, the staff can really tailor the experience to you, so don't be afraid to ask for what you want, like a private dinner on the balcony."
