Amaryllis

Amaryllis


The eight passenger ultra deluxe Amaryllis is a 40 meter Dutch hull, vintage 1962, and sister ship to Fleur de Lys. She was converted into the most upscale hotel barge throughout 2001 and welcomed her first passengers in Spring 2002. Designed in conjunction with La Fluviale, a prominent boat company in St. Jean de Losne, she has been decorated by some of the most respected names in France and Italy.

The air conditioned interior of this luxurious péniche-hôtel is traditionally French, with contemporary touches set off by Louis XVI and XV antiques. Settle into the comfortable lounge with a drink from the open bar, linger over dishes cooked by the cordon bleu chef or simply watch the magical French countryside unfold all around.

Amaryllis is only available for groups or families wishing to charter the whole barge. She sleeps up to 8 guests and has 6 crew on board. Each suite has a choice of twin or double bed configuration and has been meticulously decorated in a traditional style, complimented by occasional tables from Li Puma of Florence. The specially designed window casings incorporate huge windows that panoramically frame the passing countryside. Relax on the top deck on sun loungers, luxuriate in the heated swimming pool or cycle along the tow path on one of the included bikes.

Below you can find some of the highlights of the cruises we are currently offering on Amaryllis, along with some examples of the cuisine and fine wines the master chef will present you with on board. You can view the current itineraries and maps by clicking "Amaryllis Cruises" on the menu on the right where you will also find links to the photo gallery, deck plan and cruise rates.
