Service from the heart

The crew went above and beyond to prepare vegetarian Jain meals for us – the steamed rice rolls and lotus stem soup were exceptional. Our family connecting rooms were spacious and soundproof, with extra pillows for my elderly parents. Exploring the floating fishing village by bamboo boat was an authentic cultural touch, and the sunset party with fresh fruit and local rum was pure joy.

Relaxation was redefined during the afternoon tea on the bow, with nothing but the sound of waves against the karsts. The cabin featured a panoramic window that slid open – I slept with the sea breeze every night. The cave exploration of Sung Sot was awe-inspiring, but my favorite was kayaking through a hidden tunnel that opened into a secret, perfectly round lagoon.

The itinerary was well-paced: a morning tai chi session, then kayaking, then free time to nap on the loungers. Our connecting cabin for the family was cleverly designed with privacy curtains and ample storage. The food highlight was the pho breakfast station, made-to-order with aromatic broth. Seeing the floating villages and the iconic Thumb Rock up close made me feel I’d truly discovered something special.
