We were completely blown away by the cuisine. Each meal felt like dining in a Michelin-star restaurant. The chef introduced every dish and shared stories behind the ingredients. From grilled lobster to Vietnamese fusion tapas, everything was divine. I appreciated the variety — no two meals were alike. Even the vegetarian options were creative and flavorful. Dessert was always a work of art! Dining on the deck under the stars with soft live music was something I’ll never forget. Absolute culinary bliss.

Friendly, Professional Crew The crew of Elite of the Seas deserves a standing ovation. They’re always smiling, polite, and willing to help — without being too formal. What I loved most was their passion. Everyone, from the bartender to the guide, truly loved their job and took pride in their service. They shared stories, gave cultural insights, and even taught us how to say a few Vietnamese words. Their warmth made us feel like we were among friends. It's rare to see a team this well-trained and enthusiastic.

The Most Peaceful Sleep I’ve Had in Years I don’t usually sleep well when I travel, but the bed on Elite of the Seas was incredible. Soft pillows, blackout curtains, perfect temperature control — I slept like a baby. The motion of the water was gentle and soothing. It was the first time in years I woke up feeling completely refreshed. The silence at night, far away from cities and noise, was priceless. If you’re looking for real rest and relaxation, this cruise delivers it on every level. I honestly didn’t want to get off the bed in the morning!

Exceptional Attention to Detail Every detail on Elite of the Seas has been thought through with care. From the fresh welcome drink and cold towels at check-in to the personalized itinerary placed in our room each day — it felt like a private, curated journey. Even small gestures like remembering our favorite drinks or adjusting the aircon before we returned from an excursion meant so much. The staff was attentive, polite, and always a step ahead. It’s rare to find this level of consistency in luxury travel. I was truly impressed and would return in a heartbeat.

Five-Star Spa on the Sea I booked a massage on Elite of the Seas and it was one of the best spa treatments I’ve ever had. The spa room had large windows overlooking the water, which made the whole experience feel surreal. My therapist was skilled and professional, using top-quality oils and techniques. Afterward, I relaxed with herbal tea on the balcony. It was incredibly calming and rejuvenating. The spa team was kind and took time to personalize the service. I highly recommend treating yourself to a session during your cruise. Pure bliss! Really recommend Elite of the Seas - Best cruise in Halong

Activities for Every Taste What I loved most about Elite of the Seas was the wide range of activities. We had morning Tai Chi on the deck, went kayaking through hidden lagoons, and joined a cooking class with the onboard chef. The schedule was well-paced — you could join in or just relax with a cocktail by the pool. The jacuzzi on the top deck was the perfect way to end each day. There were also quiet spaces to read or enjoy a glass of wine. Whether you love adventure or relaxation, this cruise offers both. An unforgettable mix!

Incredible Suite and Ocean Views I’ve stayed at many luxury resorts, but nothing quite compares to waking up in a floating five-star suite on Elite of the Seas. The room was spacious, spotless, and beautifully designed with natural light flooding in. The bathtub with a view of the bay was a personal favorite. We spent hours just lounging on our private balcony. Every comfort was considered, and the soundproofing meant peaceful sleep every night. I truly felt like I was staying in a boutique hotel on water. The experience was unmatched in both elegance and tranquility. Thank Vietnam Escape Tours for arranging this trip for us with a great deal price. Everything from beginning to the end is smooth.

The Perfect Honeymoon My husband and I spent our honeymoon on Elite of the Seas and it was everything we could’ve dreamed of. The romantic setup in our suite was lovely — rose petals, wine, and a private balcony. We had a candlelit dinner on the top deck and even got a special honeymoon cake. The staff made us feel so special. We joined a kayaking excursion and had a peaceful moment surrounded by the limestone karsts. It was intimate, serene, and beautifully curated. This cruise created memories that we will cherish forever. Thank you for making our honeymoon magical.

Outstanding Food and Service I’m still dreaming about the food we had on Elite of the Seas! Every meal was a gourmet experience, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The seafood was incredibly fresh, and there were plenty of options to suit all preferences. Our server remembered our dietary restrictions without us having to repeat anything. Breakfast with a view of the bay was unforgettable. What really stood out was how genuine and kind the staff were. They anticipated our needs and made us feel like VIPs throughout the journey. Five stars for both the cuisine and the crew. Highly recommended!

Luxurious Experience from Start to Finish Our journey with Elite of the Seas was nothing short of magical. From the moment we stepped onboard, we were greeted with warm smiles and impeccable service. The design of the yacht is stunning — modern, elegant, and incredibly comfortable. Our suite had floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking views of Halong Bay. Every detail, from the fresh flowers in the room to the high-quality bedding, made us feel pampered. The butler was attentive without being intrusive. Dining on the sundeck as the sun set was a dream. I loved the balance of relaxation and activities offered. Truly a five-star experience. We didn't want to leave! Thanks to Lauren from Vietnam Escape Tours for a good price and good service. Luaren supported us a lot on our booking and during the trip with 24/7 Whataspp support.
