Guest Reviews
- Wade (10/5): Great staff, nice boat. - The staff was amazing. They were there for our every need! Mr. Morning was great!
- Matthew (10/5): Terrific Luxury Cruise on Halong Bay - Awesome luxury cruise on Halong Bay. Everything was perfect. The Paloma Suite was definitely worth it, with the spacious balcony at the front of the boat. The food was good, itinerary was fun, crew was friendly. The WiFi was no bueno, so that was only downside if you need it. We stayed 1 night/2day, could easily have stayed an extra night for 2 total.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had an incredible stay with Paloma. The on board manager and staff were lovely. We loved the activities. We’re not usually the cruisin’ type so this was the fanciest place we stayed overnight. I really could have gone for two days if I had the time and the money. My only gripe was that all the drinks were in American dollars so I had to do a mental conversion twice in my head before paying. Minor i suppose but the cruise is really geared towards American tourists. Halong Bay is a must see and Paloma really made it lovely cruising to the quieter areas. Thanks so much to all the crew!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Highly recommend this cruise. - We enjoyed our stay overnight in Paloma cruise. Our tour guide is very organised and responsible. All other staff in the cruise are very nice and friendly. The view of Halong Bay was so amazing, we really hope that we can stay one more night.
- alan (8/5): Great value with friendly staff - Great value for money one night cruise. Lots of activities squeezed in by the extremely hard working staff....top marks guys. Food was great and drinks decently priced. The cruising part was a bit short. Everything was very orchestrated and all the boats done the same thing. Cruised there.... anchored up... Cruised back. All in all.... very enjoyable but too far to travel from Hanoi for a one night cruise.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly very helpful staff. Organized tour. Good food. Hassle free boarding, disembarking. Cleanliness could be better, renovation needed.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We booked the 2 night cruise. It was excellent, lots of fun, packed with activities and excursions into the beautiful surroundings. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The boat and cabins were really nice.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very friendly and proactive crew members. Activities onboard are interesting and yet not overloading, just nice. Food is good too. Keep up the good work
- Jessica (10/5): Great food great boat and great staff 5* - It was an amazing experience from pick up to food to activities to the staff everything was exceptional. They even presented us with flowers and a cake for our anniversary. They had also over booked our stay so had to cancel us but offered a new date with upgrade to the hunnymoon suite which was amazing.
- Bong Hang (10/5): Amazing cruise - The service is amazing. Activities are fun. Worth for the money.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice Stay - Smooth pickup and check-in process. The guide and staff on-board are all wonderful. The driver arranged to send us back to Old Quarter was abit reckless and was horning quite abit during the drive.
- John Kristian (10/5): Amazing - It was amazing!! Very nice and friendly crew, and amazing food!!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Nice cruise on Halong Bay - A pleasure trip and feel good on the itinerary. The staff is polite and honest.
- deggsie (10/5): Deggsie - Fantastic Family cruise for us. 3days/2nights highly recommended if you want to swim in the balmy waters of Halong Bay on day 2. Food was exceptional and more than expected. Activities were great for the family but be aware you transfer to a different smaller boat for day 2 activities - bring cash to cover any drinks you have to avoid any embarrassment, something I completely overlooked. Only real mark down if any is the marked difference in drink prices in comparison to anywhere else in Vietnam not included in the cruise. Other than that an excellent boat with a great crew! Thanks Paloma!
- Yvane (10/5): Fantastic experience - Booking in took a while and the room was very hot, Very high step on to transfer boat but after this everything improved greatly and was absolutely fantastic. Lots of wonderful food and plenty activities which you could choose to do if you wished. Staff were amazing and the boat and scenery superb
- EDMUND (10/5): Paloma cruise on Halong Bay - Really enjoyed our overnight cruise with Paloma. Food was very good and service was excellent. Only complaint was drive back to Hanoi. Used there van service and had 11 people in van, 7 of them a family with 4 small children. Made for a long 4 hour ride back.
- Roger (8/5): Pleasant well organized cruise - The cruise itself was well organized and was as described in the literature. Halong bay is so impressive a small cruise ship cabin for one night is no problem
- Tan (8/5): Good Service and friendly staff. - Wifi was not working. Staff was friendly and engaging with passengers. Food served was appropriate and of good quality.
- Jian (8/5): Good service with a reasonable staff-guest ratio - Booked a 1 night stay on Paloma cruise. Transport picked us up at our hotel at the agreed timing (2 way transport USD 25 per pax) and we were warmly welcomed by the guide. It is a long 3 plus hour ride and we are glad to have WIFI service available on the go provided by the bus. The cruise is overall cosy and service is great. Food provided on board was delicious but drinks were a little expensive (which I guess would be the same on all other cruises). We had a great stay overall. If given a choice of kayak vs bumboat, choose the latter as you will get to enjoy the scenary. We went on kayak and was busy paddling, plus bringing a camera along was not recommended (as we will get wet) and hence quite a disappointment.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice cruise well organized and wonderful staff - We had a great time. The boat is nice and the rooms and bed were comfortable.
