ROI SOLEIL Yacht Description
-
Jacuzzi on deck:
Easy post-swim relaxation with a hot soak while taking in the sea views. -
6 aluminium bicycles (Giant “Boulder Breeze” hybrids):
Cycle ashore for scenic rides and village exploring, with shock absorbers and road tyres. -
Shallow draft (1.2m):
Cruise closer to shore and slip into shallower bays that deeper yachts may avoid.
Classic, recently refreshed. ROI SOLEIL is a 30m/98' motor yacht built in 1920 with refits noted in 2017 and again in 2022, and she’s set up for a simple, grown-up charter for up to 6 guests.
Outdoor time, covered. A deck jacuzzi gives you an easy “do nothing” zone between swims. Add the outdoor shower and BBQ, and the day flows without anyone needing to go hunting for the next plan. Good.
Shallow draft advantage. With a 1.2m draft, ROI SOLEIL can get into shallower water and closer to shore than many yachts this size.
Three proper cabins. Accommodation is in 3 double cabins with en-suite bathrooms, plus practical comforts like air conditioning and Wi‑Fi when you feel like reconnecting.
Extra off-yacht range. There are bicycles onboard, which is a small detail that pays off when you want a change of pace from the water.

Reviews
Experiencing navigating the locks, learning the local history from our guide, coming back after a hard afternoon’s explorations to the comforting sight of our hostess with cocktails and snacks as she welcomes us home.
And the food! What can we say? We were thrilled over and over again each meal that our chef presented. He delighted all of our different tastes, every single time with beautiful creativity. We have been well pleased, thankyou for a wonderful holiday!
“So many thanks for creating for us an amazingly perfect trip. You were so much fun to be with while being attentive to needs we did not even know we had…”
“…I have no words for this extraordinary experience…fabulous, delicious and beyond any expectations we had…beautiful boat, amazing crew…”
Damian, our chef, was outstanding! … serving spectacular food in the most beautiful settings.
The wine and cheese was fabulous and presented with a telling of its history and provenance by our guide, Rex and our exceptional hostess, Emily. We learned as we dined and imbibed. All our wishes and expectations were fulfilled … from blueberry pancakes to a sumptuous seafood feast. This trip has been like having Alain Ducasse at each meal!
Our superb guide, Rex, was completely knowledgeable and passed his passion on to us all.
Through the locks and on through this peaceful canal, our fantastic captain, Finn, took us on unforgettable voyage of beauty.
