Terrific Luxury Cruise on Halong Bay

Awesome luxury cruise on Halong Bay. Everything was perfect. The Paloma Suite was definitely worth it, with the spacious balcony at the front of the boat. The food was good, itinerary was fun, crew was friendly. The WiFi was no bueno, so that was only downside if you need it. We stayed 1 night/2day, could easily have stayed an extra night for 2 total.

We had an incredible stay with Paloma. The on board manager and staff were lovely. We loved the activities. We’re not usually the cruisin’ type so this was the fanciest place we stayed overnight. I really could have gone for two days if I had the time and the money. My only gripe was that all the drinks were in American dollars so I had to do a mental conversion twice in my head before paying. Minor i suppose but the cruise is really geared towards American tourists. Halong Bay is a must see and Paloma really made it lovely cruising to the quieter areas. Thanks so much to all the crew!

Great value with friendly staff

Great value for money one night cruise. Lots of activities squeezed in by the extremely hard working staff....top marks guys. Food was great and drinks decently priced. The cruising part was a bit short. Everything was very orchestrated and all the boats done the same thing. Cruised there.... anchored up... Cruised back. All in all.... very enjoyable but too far to travel from Hanoi for a one night cruise.

No quarto que eu comprei, e paguei mais caro, deveria haver uma pequena sala anexa, porém, quando embarquei, me colocaram em um quarto normal. Argumentei, porém disseram que naquela embarcação não havia este tipo de quarto. Se não havia o quarto por que foi vendido, por que me enviaram para aquela embarcação??? Fiquei no prejuízo. Quanto ao passeio, o barco é limpo, a cama confortável, as refeições são boas, os funcionários atenciosos, porém tudo acontece de forma muito corrida, o que acaba afetando um pouco o custo benefício, mas parece que este ponto é generalizado, e acontece em todas as outras embarcações.

Nice cruise

Very nice Cruise. Great ship, clean and not worn down at all. Nice service from crew on board and huge amounts of food for lunch and dinner. And very good food as well! Programmer is kind of busy with not much free time except after dinner. That is okay though, and I guess you can just decide not to participate in some activities. Best activity was no doubt the kayaking. Thank you for a nice 2d/1n Cruise.

Los empleados encantadores, Justin Cao es muy buen guia, te explica todo bien y es muy simpático. En el barco David y Min nos trataron muy bien.

Fantastic Family cruise for us. 3days/2nights highly recommended if you want to swim in the balmy waters of Halong Bay on day 2. Food was exceptional and more than expected. Activities were great for the family but be aware you transfer to a different smaller boat for day 2 activities - bring cash to cover any drinks you have to avoid any embarrassment, something I completely overlooked. Only real mark down if any is the marked difference in drink prices in comparison to anywhere else in Vietnam not included in the cruise. Other than that an excellent boat with a great crew! Thanks Paloma!
