Heritage Cruise
Heritage Binh Chuan cruise is a 5 stars cruise on Lan Ha bay. Inspired by the legacy of ship king Bach Thai Buoi successfully launched the Binh Chuan ship in Hai Phong exactly 100 years ago, Heritage designed the Indochine style but was still able to express the tradition and culture of past time.
The cruise features 20 cabins luxurious, including 6 Delta Suites, 10 Ocean Suites, 2 Captain Suites & 2 Regal Suites, ranging from 33 to 46 sqm, and clad with high-end amenities. All cabins are spread across the three-deck with en-suite bathrooms, panoramic windows, a sitting area, and expansive ocean views from an oversized terrace with two sun beds.
Besides, Heritage cruises have 1 swimming pool, 3 bars, two restaurants, a gym, a library, a gallery, outdoor and indoor lounges, and a large sundeck for multi activities such as morning Vovinam, outdoor cooking class, event parties, afternoon tea, or just simply lying on the benches to admire the stunning Bay. Guests can taste local Vietnamese food and international dishes at the restaurants L’Indochine and Le Tonkin, the wine cellar, and the lounge bar. Breakfast and lunch will be a buffet of Asian and Western dishes, dinner will be in a fine dining style, and the children will have their own a la carte menu.
