1. Witness unique architecture and design on a land-based yacht hotel

The Yacht Hotel is one of the most unique hotels we have ever seen. Imagine stepping into a yacht – that is the feeling you will get when you visit the hotel. Right from the grand reception hall, you will be greeted by an ambiance of natural light and luxury that evokes the image of a contemporary, luxurious harbor. And while the inside of the hotel looks like a luxury yacht, nothing compares to the view from the outside. The Yacht Hotel by DC is located right along Ha Long Bay, so have the chance to see this incredible UNESCO heritage site from the comfort of your hotel room.

The rooms are all inspired with a tranquil winter voyage around Ha Long Bay so you can only expect the most serene and calming space should you decide to visit. 

For the ultimate indulgence, go for the resort’s Executive Suite, where luxury meets thoughtful design. This spacious retreat features distinct bedroom and living areas, creating an elevated sense of comfort and privacy. Warm wooden furnishings blend seamlessly with soothing ocean-blue accents, evoking a sense of harmony and inspiration. Our favourite, though, would be the private balcony that beholds breathtaking panoramic views of Ha Long Bay. It will truly elevate your stay at the resort! 

3. Embark on a journey to Vietnamese culture

It will not be a complete trip to Ha Long Bay, or Vietnam in general, if you will not get to experience the hospitality of the Vietnamese and their rich local heritage.

And of course, food is another integral part of Vietnam’s culture. The Yacht Hotel’s beautifully designed restaurants, lounges, and bars provide the perfect setting to savour these local dishes and drinks – all while looking through breathtaking Ha Long views. 

Fern

Fern, a family-friendly restaurant, boasts a menu that celebrates the finest of Vietnamese cuisine and beloved international classics. Their menu offers something for everyone—from authentic Vietnamese dishes and international favourites to fresh seafood and indulgent sweet treats. Start your day with a lavish breakfast buffet from Fern, though you can also go here for  à la carte options during lunch and dinner. But if we can offer you a suggestion, we highly recommend choosing the window seats since you can also get to enjoy your food with a scenic ocean view. 

Boong Pool Bar

For those looking to unwind and have some fun, Boong Pool Bar is the place to be. Conveniently located beside the pool, it is the perfect spot to sip on refreshing drinks and savour good food. Step into a world of tropical chic, where vibrant hues of pink, orange, and green set the tone for an electrifying experience. 

5. Swim in style overlooking Ha Long Bay

If not a fan of the water, you can just relax on one of the daybeds and simply soak up the sun and embrace the tranquil ambience. The panoramic views make up for all of it.

6. Unwind in a spa that reminds you of the ocean

To cap off your stay, go for a spa day at Nalu. In line with the resort’s theme of the water, Nalu means Wave in Hawaiian, so just like how the ocean waves bring us a sense of calm as we watch it, this spa offers a variety of experiences that will provide you serenity. Choose from their selection of massages to sooth your tired muscles, as well as from their skincare therapies, facials, and body treatments to pamper your skin. 

Bonus: Perfect for Weddings along Ha Long Bay

Celebrating a wedding on an actual yacht may only be suitable for an intimate event, so if you are going big for your special day, you can go to The Yacht Hotel instead.
