The cruise arranged a private ayurvedic massage on the sundeck – pure bliss. Our cabin had a small writing desk facing the water, perfect for journaling. The food was a highlight: freshly made dosa for breakfast and a delicious fish curry for lunch. The guided kayak tour took us right up to a hidden beach where we swam alone – unforgettable.

Service was warm and efficient; the staff even helped me take professional photos with my camera. Our room had a huge window seat where I spent hours watching the limestone peaks drift by. The food was a highlight – the steamed clams with lemongrass and the fried spring rolls rivaled any restaurant in Hanoi. The cave exploration was well-lit and easy to walk, suitable for my parents too.

Everything was seamless: transfer from Hanoi, check-in, excursions, and departure. Our cabin had a unique bathtub shaped like a lotus petal. The food was generous and delicious – I gained weight! Ha Long Bay is nature’s masterpiece, and this cruise showed it perfectly.
