Catherine Cruise Halong Bay 1 Night โ Balcony Suites, Caves & Quiet Evenings
Sail between the legends of Halong Bay on Catherine Cruise, with private-balcony suites, infinity pool moments and cave-to-island adventures designed for modern, comfort-loving travelers.
From the moment you step into Catherine Cruiseโs Lounge at Tuan Chau Marina, your Catherine Cruise Halong Bay 1 Night journey feels more like checking into a floating boutique hotel than boarding a boat. A homemade welcome drink in hand, you sail between sculpted limestone peaks, pause to kayak under the arch of Luon Cave, and climb Titop Island for a sweeping panorama of Halong Bay just before sunset.
Onboard, private-balcony cabins with bathtubs, infinity pool, mini-golf and spa areas create a calm, upscale atmosphere where every corner invites you to slow down.
The next morning, sunrise Tai Chi, a light breakfast and a guided walk through the vast chambers of Sung Sot Cave complete the story, before a generous brunch carries you gently back to shore.
For travellers planning a wider Vietnam route, this cruise pairs beautifully with Halong Bay Cruise 1 Night โ Icons by Day, Sunset by Deck, the broader Halong Bay Cruise โ Icons, Caves & Sunset Horizons collection, or multi-day Vietnam tour packages crafted by ViettrendTour.

Once on Catherine Cruise, a short safety briefing gives way to your first lunch in the elegant restaurant, where windows frame the limestone pillars of Halong Bay as they slide silently by.

After a refined set-menu dinner, the bay turns quiet; you can try squid fishing, putt a few balls at the mini-golf course or simply breathe in the night air from your private balcony, watching the anchor lights shimmer on the water.
