Magnifique's key features

Magnifique Interior & saloon

  • Wood-effect flooring, wood-tone cabinets and finishes, and plush upholstery create an ambiance of understated elegance. The large picture windows through let in abundant natural light, particularly in the grand saloon.

  • A music system includes a radio/CD player with MP3/USB connectivity. The sundeck is wired for sound.
  • An inside steering station has good visibility.
  • Side access to the decks makes line handling easy.
  • The huge kitchen/galley features black granite-effect counters, stainless-steel sink, large gas stove and oven, two spacious electric refrigerators, and plenty of cabinet space for provisions.

Magnifique Cabins & bathrooms

  • In the rear section of the boat, you’ll find two comfortable cabins with two single beds that convert to double beds. In each is an en-suite bathroom with shower, new electric-flush toilet, and sink.
  • Two luxury staterooms forward have comfortable double beds. These cabins share the boat’s third bathroom, which is equipped with a shower, new electric-flush toilet, and sink.
  • Plentiful closets and other storage make the sleeping cabins free of clutter.
  • Cabin fans in all areas are welcome in hot weather.
Magnifique Sundeck

  • Swimmers will love the full-width swim platform in the stern. The platform also makes it easy getting on and off the boat.
  • The huge sundeck features a large table for alfresco dining and padded seats for comfort.
  • The second steering station has superior visibility.
  • The onboard electrical system runs on 12-volt DC power and 220-volt shore power.
Air cooling and air conditioning

When the temperatures soar, our cabin air cooling system can help make your night’s sleep a little more comfortable. Air cooling uses canal/river water to produce cool air which is blown out through vents.

 

Please note: This is not the same as air-conditioning which can achieve lower temperatures and has a thermostatic control. Performance significantly reduces if canal/river temperature is too high.

From start to finish, the holiday was first class. A call from the office prior to the holiday made sure that we had all things arranged and everything organised before we embarked on our first Le Boat voyage! Comprehensive information from emails and on bird as to locks and moorings etc. Simply a perfect break.

Upon arrival the staff as always is efficient. The boat was ready for us, the briefing was beneficial to the boating area. On return the dis-embarkment was fast and the end of cruise fees were handled promptly and what we expected. Taking a boat to Venice was the best way to see the island, the lagoon and the rest of the area

The people were very helpful and reassuring. They came out when the boat needed attention. We had a great trip. Great to have a one way trip and not to have to work out when to retrace our steps. Going in early May the river was very quiet.
