Service from the heart

Service was efficient and friendly—our request for extra pillows was fulfilled within minutes. The onboard gym was small but sufficient, and the spa’s hot stone massage melted away all travel fatigue. Fresh spring rolls at lunch and a perfectly cooked medium-rare beef tenderloin for dinner showed off Vietnamese flavors with a refined touch. Ha Long Bay’s thousands of islands are a true natural wonder.

The cabin was a cozy sanctuary with premium linens and a private balcony perfect for morning tea overlooking the bay. Each meal was a culinary journey, especially the freshly caught grilled oysters. The guided cave exploration and tai chi session on deck at dawn were unforgettable highlights.

I was impressed by how the crew balanced lively activities with quiet moments for relaxation. The buffet breakfast featured both local pho and continental options, catering to all tastes. Cruising past the Fighting Cock Islets and stopping at a floating fishing village gave me a deep appreciation for the bay’s natural and cultural beauty.
