ハロン湾 2 泊 3 日、ステラ オブ ザ シー クルーズ 5 つ星付き

Lifestyles of the rich and famous yacht at a fraction of the price. Seriously, look at the pictures on the web! It looks exactly like it but the experience is twice as awesome! This is BY FAR the best and newest boat in Ha Long Bay. We booked the 2 nights 3 day cruise. Pick up was prompt in a nice van at 9:00 a.m. We shared it with another couple and it took a little over 2 hrs to get to the dock (w/a quick pit stop). While waiting at the dock, we met another couple who just got off the boat and told us we wouldn't care about the weather once we got on the ship (forecast was for rain). They were RAVING about how awesome it was...O.K., now we are even more excited. We waited a short time and then took a shuttle out to the Ship. The entire staff was on deck waving our welcome...how cool is that? We boarded and were served a 5 course lunch and shown to our rooms. WOW! You won't believe how beautiful the rooms are. We'd recommend the 2nd level as the views and bathrooms are even better than the first (which we also thought were outstanding). The toilet seats are even heated with a full control panel! There are only 20 or so rooms on the boat which makes for a very intimate experience. Plenty of activities included in the cruise, amazing food and drinks. Drinks were extra but at $8 we thought it was totally reasonable...and they were REALLY good drinks. Try the Passion Fruit Mojito. WE HIGHLY recommend the 2 night cruise as you get to travel by speed boat out to an amazing island and bike to a local village and visit a stunning beach on top of the 1 night itinerary visiting sea caves. The entire staff was so wonderful. Thao, James, Peter and so many others. BTW, there are only 20 or so boats allowed to enter the areas we were able to cruise out of the 580 boats operating in Ha Long Bay. So not only do you get to experience an amazing vessel but also enjoy a fabulous itinerary with views that will not disappoint. We did experience a little rain but it was no big deal...bring a light weight rain jacket, long pants and long sleeve layer if the weather forecast looks bad. After returning to our hotel in Hanoi, we were surprised and delighted to be greeted by their Customer Service Manager who made sure we had a pleasant trip and gave us a parting gift. Class act!
