Cycad Cruise Halong Bay

In October 2025, Halong Bay will welcome a new masterpiece on its emerald waters – the Cycad Cruise, a six-star iron vessel redefining luxury cruising in Vietnam. Inspired by the timeless Indochine style, the Cycad Cruise combines oriental charm with modern sophistication to offer an extraordinary journey across Bai Tu Long Bay, Quan Lan Island, and Halong Bay – three of Northern Vietnam’s most breathtaking destinations.

A Floating Sanctuary of Style and Comfort

Stretching 56 meters in length and 14 meters in width, Cycad Cruise stands as a testament to refined craftsmanship and safety. Designed for 89 passengers, it houses 24 luxurious cabins and a professional crew of 40 members, ensuring personalized and attentive service. Every detail reflects the spirit of old Indochina — warm teakwood tones, handcrafted décor, and intricate motifs — blended seamlessly with contemporary elegance and cutting-edge facilities.

The cruise is built with four spacious decks, each thoughtfully arranged to create a harmonious flow between relaxation, culinary enjoyment, and cultural immersion.

Elegant Cabins for Every Traveler

The first deck offers 8 Balcony Junior Cabins and 2 Balcony Family Cabins, ideal for couples and small families. This level also houses 2 massage rooms, a fully equipped gym, and a cabin for guides — ensuring comfort for both guests and staff throughout the voyage.

On the second deck, guests will find a collection of higher-category accommodations including 8 Balcony Executive Cabins, 2 Balcony Family Cabins, 2 Deluxe Sea View Cabins, and two premium suites: the Presidential Suite and the Ambassador Suite. Each suite is a private haven featuring a spacious balcony, separate bathtub and shower, and sweeping ocean views — the ultimate retreat after a day of exploration.

The third deck is where elegance meets community. Guests can unwind at the Ginger Lounge, savor gourmet meals at the Lemongrass Restaurant, or witness the culinary artistry within the open kitchen. A Captain’s Cabin and staff quarters are also located here, ensuring the ship operates with flawless precision.

Crowning it all is the rooftop sundeck, an expansive open-air terrace designed for serenity and celebration. With a swimming pool, rooftop bar, and panoramic views, this space transforms from a tranquil sunbathing area by day to a magical entertainment venue under the starlit sky.

Cycad Cruise Halong Bay Accommodation

When travelers step aboard the Cycad Cruise Halong Bay, they enter a floating sanctuary that perfectly blends Indochine-inspired charm with modern comfort. Each of the 24 cabins has been meticulously designed to create an atmosphere of tranquility, sophistication, and harmony with the natural surroundings. With spacious layouts, handcrafted furnishings, and panoramic views of limestone peaks and emerald waters, Cycad Cruise transforms every moment into a refined retreat.

The accommodation onboard is divided into several categories — Balcony Junior, Executive Balcony, Family Balcony, Deluxe Sea View, and the prestigious Ambassador Suite — each thoughtfully tailored to meet different needs and travel styles. Whether you are a couple seeking romance, a family sharing joyful memories, or an explorer craving comfort after an adventurous day, Cycad Cruise offers an intimate home on the sea.

BALCONY JUNIOR ROOM – A Peaceful Escape on the First Deck

Located on the first deck, the Balcony Junior Rooms (101–108) offer a private haven for two guests, with sizes ranging from 32m² to 35m². Each cabin opens onto a private balcony, inviting natural light and gentle breezes from Halong Bay.

Guests can choose between King beds (2m x 2m) for couples or Twin beds (1m x 2m) for friends traveling together. The elegant interiors are adorned with warm wooden tones, soft linens, and subtle Indochine motifs that create a sense of timeless relaxation.

Every room features modern conveniences — a mini-bar, tea and coffee set, television, and air conditioning. The bathroom area includes a hot bathtub and separate shower, along with premium amenities such as bathrobes, towels, shampoo, lotion, and a hairdryer. For families, an extra bed or baby cot can be arranged on request, ensuring comfort for all ages.

From the private balcony, guests can enjoy the beauty of Bai Tu Long’s sunrise or unwind with a sunset drink, surrounded by the symphony of waves and whispering breezes.

EXECUTIVE BALCONY ROOM – Refined Comfort with a View

Perched on the second deck, the Executive Balcony Rooms (201–208) mirror the design and size of the Junior category but offer elevated views of the bay. Each cabin, measuring 32m²–35m², opens onto a private balcony and features floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the room with daylight.

Designed for two guests, the Executive rooms capture the spirit of Indochine luxury with handcrafted décor, wooden furnishings, and a serene color palette. The well-equipped bathroom includes a bathtub, shower, and a curated selection of Cycad’s exclusive toiletries.

Couples can unwind on the balcony while watching the silhouettes of limestone mountains drift past, or savor morning tea at the in-room table while soft sunlight glimmers on the waves. Like all cabins, extra beds and baby cots are available upon request.

FAMILY BALCONY ROOM – A Warm Haven for Shared Memories

Designed with families in mind, the Family Balcony Rooms (109–110, 209–210) are available on both the first and second decks. Each 36m² cabin comfortably accommodates up to four people, featuring a King bed (2m x 2m) and the option for an extra bed or baby cot.

Spacious and bright, these rooms include large windows and a private balcony that open to Halong Bay’s ever-changing landscape. Families can gather around the small table for tea, enjoy a movie night, or relax together in the warm ambiance of wooden décor and soft lighting.

Every element — from the mini-bar and television to the bathrobe, air conditioning, and luxury toiletries — has been selected to ensure a delightful and comfortable stay for both adults and children.

DELUXE SEA VIEW ROOM – Cozy Elegance with Panoramic Windows

For travelers seeking a compact yet charming space, the Deluxe Sea View Rooms (211–212) on the second deck offer 19m² of thoughtfully designed comfort. While these cabins do not feature balconies, their large windows still provide captivating sea views.

Each room accommodates two guests, with a choice between Twin or King beds, and includes all essential amenities — mini-bar, tea and coffee set, television, and a luxurious bathroom with both bathtub and shower. Despite the smaller footprint, the meticulous design ensures a sense of intimacy and calm, ideal for travelers who spend their days exploring and return to serene comfort each night.

AMBASSADOR SUITE – The Crown Jewel of Cycad Cruise

The Ambassador Suite (222) represents the pinnacle of Cycad’s elegance. Located on the second deck, this 46m² sanctuary features a spacious private balcony and expansive windows offering breathtaking panoramic views.

Inside, the suite exudes the charm of a bygone era with its Indochine-inspired décor, blending rich wood textures and subtle golden hues. The King-sized bed (2m x 2m) promises restful sleep, while the ensuite bathroom invites indulgence with a deep bathtub, rain shower, and a complete array of luxury bath amenities.

Perfect for honeymooners or discerning travelers, the Ambassador Suite offers a romantic seating area, mini-bar, air conditioning, and all the details that define five-star hospitality — from plush robes to fragrant lotions. Guests can enjoy private dining on the balcony, sip champagne at sunset, or simply gaze at the tranquil seascape below.

Every cabin aboard Cycad Cruise Halong Bay embodies the harmony between Vietnamese artistry and modern design. Spacious balconies, large windows, and indulgent bathtubs invite guests to connect with the sea, while thoughtful amenities and personalized service ensure every stay is effortless.

Whether in a cozy Deluxe room or the majestic Ambassador Suite, guests are surrounded by the timeless spirit of Indochine luxury — where elegance flows as smoothly as the tides of Halong Bay.

Refined Services and Signature Experiences

Cycad Cruise is more than a vessel — it’s a stage for unforgettable moments. Guests can enjoy an afternoon Canapé Party on the sundeck, where sunset glows over limestone karsts while elegant music plays softly in the background. Traditional Vietnamese costumes are available for free, inviting travelers to relive old Indochine memories through charming photo sessions at golden hour.

Evenings on board are filled with cultural immersion. A mini-show of Chèo or Cải Lương singing, or the haunting notes of the monochord, enhances dinner time, turning each meal into a celebration of Vietnamese heritage. The culinary concept aboard Cycad is unique: every menu is curated around a theme, blending traditional recipes with modern plating — a journey for both the palate and the soul.

Immersive Exploration in Bai Tu Long & Halong Bay

Beyond its luxury, Cycad Cruise delivers a deeply authentic experience. Guests can visit Vung Vieng Fishing Village, one of the oldest communities in Bai Tu Long Bay, by traditional hand-rowed boat, and explore the Thien Canh Son Cave, known for its stunning stalactites and million-year geological formations. These excursions capture the essence of Halong’s natural and cultural beauty — peaceful, poetic, and profoundly Vietnamese.

A Journey Worth Remembering

From sunrise tai-chi to moonlit cocktails, every moment aboard Cycad Cruise is designed for connection — with nature, with culture, and with oneself. With its spacious cabins, indulgent amenities, and curated local experiences, Cycad Cruise sets a new benchmark for six-star voyages in Northern Vietnam.
