We had previously sailed on Ponant cruises to Alaska and Antarctica and had fantastic exoeriences with them so we decided to cruise with Ponant again in our own country Australia from Darwin to Broome to see the Kimberley Region,
The ships are very comfortable in classic French chique style and only take approximately 200 passengers rather than other massive cruise ships, We find this size of boat perfect t allows for comfort and service without being too small or too large, The food is excellent and the service is also friendly and courteous,
The cruise Director was amazing with the on-board entertainment also a lot of fun. The wait staff were also friendly as were the bar staff although our only criticism of the Kimberley Cruise was that one of the bar staff in the main bar seemed unfriendly and disinterested which was so out of character with the other staff. It was something that should have been rectified while we were sailing on the cruise as it did impact bar service and sense of fun.
Very comfortable with plenty of storage space, Outside balcony and well fitted bathroom and shower, Separate toilet. The room service was excellent, I think the cabin size was 21 square metres so we had ample room
