Ha Long & Lan Ha Bay

The Cruise

2 Days / 1 Night aboard the Aqua of the Sea Cruise.

The Aqua of the Sea is a striking 5-star, metal-hull super yacht, one of the larger luxury vessels on the water, with 32 elegantly appointed cabins, each featuring a private balcony, floor-to-ceiling windows and an ocean-view bathtub. With two restaurants, an outdoor swimming pool, a gym and a spa, it pairs serious comfort with a route through both Ha Long and Lan Ha Bay, taking in the Dark & Bright Cave, kayaking, swimming and secluded beaches. Warm teakwood interiors and Vietnamese artistry make each cabin a private retreat, and it's a particularly family-friendly choice.

Day 2

Sunrise Tai Chi and breakfast, a final kayak or beach stop, then check out and a brunch as the cruise returns to port. Transfer back to Hanoi around midday.

Our experience of

Aqua of the Sea Cruise

We've hosted guests aboard the Aqua of the Sea and inspected her ourselves, and the word that keeps coming back is "family" - the crew welcome you with a drum roll, remember you after every excursion, and guests describe the service as a level above what they expected.

The boat backs it up. There's a large four-season pool and a sky bar that people single out at sunset, and the cabins are big - some very big - each with a private balcony and a bath looking over the water. Food is fresh and generous, the kayaking and cycling around Cat Ba are well run, and the evening karaoke tends to be a highlight rather than an afterthought.

What we've found: the Aqua of the Sea suits guests who want space, a pool and a crew that makes a fuss of them. If you can, take the three-day itinerary - the two-day feels quick for everything on offer.
