First introduced in 2015 and the fourth ship in the Sisterships series, Le Lyrial is the very embodiment of this new generation of intimately sized cruise ships. She can accommodate up to 244 passengers, in 132 spacious suites, all with large windows and lounge areas that open onto the outside.
Her exterior and interior lines, all sober understatement and refinement, make it a yacht of a rare and innovative kind.
For the interior decoration, we took inspiration from the tones and colours of our destinations and used a palette made up of blues, from the soft, luminous grey-like tones of the polar ice to the vivid notes and turquoises of Mediterranean inlets and coves.
This Ponant ship bodies refinement, intimacy and comfort. As such she is true to Ponant's mark of luxury and style.
