What impressed me most about Stellar of the Seas was the balance between relaxation and adventure. One morning we joined a Tai Chi session on the sundeck with the sun rising over the limestone islands — it was magical. Later that day, we went cave exploring and visited a floating village. The staff was so knowledgeable and made every excursion feel safe and interesting. Back on board, the jacuzzi and pool were perfect for unwinding. At night, the ship was peaceful, and I slept like a baby. A truly rejuvenating getaway!

The design of Stellar of the Seas is both elegant and comfortable. Every corner of the cruise ship is thoughtfully crafted — from the cozy lounge with panoramic windows to the spacious sundeck perfect for stargazing. The bar served creative cocktails and the atmosphere in the evenings was just right: live music, soft lighting, and cool sea breezes. I loved how they combined luxury with warmth. I never felt out of place, only welcomed and relaxed.

Dining on Stellar of the Seas was a highlight in itself. Each meal was a culinary journey — fresh seafood, Vietnamese delicacies, and even some international dishes. I particularly enjoyed the cooking class where we learned to make fresh spring rolls and then got to eat them! The staff always remembered my dietary preferences and made sure I had everything I needed. Every bite was delicious and served with care. It felt like dining in a five-star restaurant floating through paradise.

What sets Stellar of the Seas apart is the crew. They’re not just staff — they’re storytellers, guides, and hosts. They remembered our names, checked in on us regularly, and made sure we were always comfortable. Their passion for what they do shows in every interaction. Whether it was explaining the legends of Halong Bay or helping with photography, they always went the extra mile. Service like this is rare — I’ll definitely recommend it to friends and family.
The suite we stayed in was exceptional. Floor-to-ceiling windows offered panoramic views of the bay, and waking up to that scenery was like a dream. The room had everything we needed: a comfortable bed, a private balcony, and even a bathtub with a view! I spent hours just sitting with a coffee and watching the limestone islands pass by. It was peaceful, quiet, and utterly beautiful. I’ve never stayed somewhere so unique. Halong Bay is beautiful itself and kayaking was amazing. we have very good experience with Stellar Cruise Halong

Activities on the cruise were diverse and well-organized. We got to try squid fishing at night — something I’d never done before! We also had a wine and cheese sunset hour, which was both fun and elegant. Yoga on the deck in the early morning was refreshing and set the tone for a calm day. Whether you want to explore, learn, or just relax, there’s something for everyone on Stellar of the Seas. You’ll never be bored, and you’ll never feel rushed. Tony from Vietnam Escape Tours supported us very well to book this cruise for us with a good price. I really recommend you to book the cruise with Vietnam Escape Tours to have a good price and good support. Whatsapp is avaialble

Our family trip on Stellar of the Seas brought us closer together. We shared meals, laughed over kayaking attempts, and spent hours talking under the stars. The cruise had something for every generation — my parents loved the cultural elements, while the kids adored the mini pool and games. We made so many precious memories. It wasn’t just a vacation — it was quality time, uninterrupted by life’s usual distractions. I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank Lauren from Vietnam Escape Tours Agency for booking this cruise for my family and we had very good expereince on the crusie.
