Pandaw
The original Kindat was built in 1886 by Yarrows in London and sank in 1920. She was named after a small Upper Chindwin town. Following experiments with the Katha and Angkor Pandaws, in this build, Pandaw perfected this concept of a two-deck shallow draft vessel and repeated the formula again with her sister the Kalaw.
Cabin Specifications
The ship offers 18 beautifully appointed staterooms—8 on the Upper Deck and 10 on the Main Deck—each measuring approximately 170 square feet and tastefully finished in warm teak and brass. Every cabin features panoramic French windows that fill the room with natural light and offer stunning river views. Individually controlled air conditioning ensures personalized comfort, while thoughtful in-room amenities include a Nespresso coffee machine, a minibar stocked with complimentary drinks, glass-bottled water, and expedition flasks. Guests can indulge in spa-branded toiletries, enjoy the use of an electric mini safe, and relax in kimonos and slippers. Each stateroom is furnished with imported quality linens, duvets, and a choice of pillows, complemented by premium mattresses for restful sleep. Additional conveniences include multi-configuration plugs, a hair dryer, and a mirror. Luxurious touches such as nightly turndown service, 24-hour laundry, yoga mats in every cabin, and complimentary evening canapés complete the refined onboard accommodation experience.
