Bhaya Classic Premium is a new addition to the Bhaya fleet, offering a selection of 3-7 cabin cruise ships for a more intimate cruising experience. The large cabins can comfortably accommodate up to three adults, meaning each ship will have a maximum of 20 guests on board. Bhaya Premium is a smaller but by no means less luxurious alternative to the larger Bhaya boats that also offer multiple night cruises on the bay.
The cabins are decorated in traditional Oriental style, long favoured by shipbuilders in Northern Vietnam. The rich brown hardwood is lightened by paler accents and woven wall panels to ensure the rooms are still bright and airy, and each cabin comes with a private balcony to really make the most of the scenery. Connecting cabins are available, making this a perfect family option.
Meals are freshly prepared and served in the elegant bar and restaurant on the third deck. Most ingredients are locally sourced from Bhaya’s farms on Cat Ba Island, and wine-tasting can be enjoyed on board at the well-stocked bar.
Itineraries last between 2-4 days and the longer cruises will visit areas of Halong Bay beyond the usual reach of other cruise ships. Destinations can include Bai Tu Long Bay, Halong Bay, Cat Ba Island and the lesser known Lan Ha Bay, and during your cruise you will have the opportunity to visit caves and islands, cycle or kayak through the beautiful scenery, enjoy a traditional cooking class or even go squid fishing at night with the crew. For those just looking to unwind and enjoy the views, there is an onboard spa where you can indulge in a massage or join a Tai Chi class as the sun rises over the upper deck.
