This sophisticated yacht, stretching nearly 80 meters, is designed to provide a refined journey for up to 76 guests.

Ranging from 30 square meters to a generous 65 square meters, these accommodations are equipped with contemporary amenities. A notable feature in all rooms is the presence of a bathtub, providing an added touch of luxury. The Grace Ocean Suites on the first deck boast expansive floor-to-ceiling windows for bay views, while the Eden Balcony Suites on the second deck offer private balconies. For an elevated experience, the Essence Terrace Suites include private terraces with outdoor jacuzzis, and the Aimee Suite provides a large front terrace.
Gastronomic Delights and Refreshments
Dining aboard the Aimee Cruise is a celebration of flavors, primarily focusing on fresh Halong seafood and authentic Vietnamese cuisine, alongside international favorites. The Elysian Restaurant, situated on the third deck, offers a sophisticated setting for meals. Whether enjoying a buffet or a set menu, culinary preferences are attentively handled, with special dietary requests accommodated when informed in advance. The Amber Sky Bar on the sundeck and the Amethyst Lounge provide perfect spots for drinks and relaxation.
Activities and Rejuvenation
Beyond the excursions to Halong Bay's iconic sites, the Aimee Cruise offers a variety of onboard activities and facilities for leisure and wellness. Guests can unwind in the Sundara outdoor jacuzzi pool, maintain their fitness routine in the well-equipped gym, or enjoy a soothing treatment at the Serene Spa & Massage. Evening entertainment options include a karaoke room and traditional squid fishing, ensuring there's something for everyone to enjoy throughout their journey.
Based on 6 reviews, the Aimee Cruise holds an excellent rating of 4.7 out of 5.0. An inspection report by BestPrice Travel noted the cruise as a solid choice for those seeking a comfortable and contemporary Halong Bay experience without the crowds found on larger vessels. It is particularly recommended for couples, families, and first-time visitors.
Reviewers consistently praised the ship's modern, well-maintained facilities, including the spa, gym, karaoke room, bar, and jacuzzi. The spacious cabins and exceptional bathrooms were highlighted as strong features. Service received high marks for professionalism and attentiveness. Dining quality was also well-regarded, with fresh seafood and well-executed Vietnamese dishes, along with flexibility for dietary restrictions. However, some feedback suggested that the jacuzzi pool could feel small during peak times, and the overall design of cabins and public areas, while comfortable, could benefit from a more distinctive style. The itinerary was described as standard, lacking unique highlights for repeat visitors, and commentary at Sung Sot Cave could be more engaging. Additionally, a dedicated Indian menu was not available at the time of review.
