Paradise Elegance gave me one of the most worthwhile experiences on a Halong Bay 5-star cruise with outstanding amusement and cuisine. It is worth a try for anniversary couples and newlyweds to indulge in romantic settings of music performances, fine dining, and sunset hours.
Facilities & Amenities - 9.5/10
Overall, there are abundant amenities for wellness and entertainment onboard. If the Jacuzzi Pool and Le Piano Lounge are perfect for outgoing people, the library and La Parfum Spa give private space for introverts. However, my Deluxe Balcony Suite has a downside due to its narrow space (only 25m2).
Pros
- Large jacuzzi pool with a capacity of up to 10 adults
- 4 separate spa rooms offer the best privacy and relaxation
- Well-maintained and up-to-date facilities in aesthetic luxuriant design
Cons
- Small and cramped cabins, only 35m2 for the Captain's View Terrace Suite
- Outdated bathrooms, not all cabins are equipped with bathtub
Restricted area for Deluxe and Executive Suite
Food & Drinks - 9.8/10
A plus of Paradise Elegance is the culinary experience with a Michelin-starred menu. At a reasonable cost, I had a chance to enjoy the first-rate cuisine of Western-Asian fusion at a 5-course dinner and French-style canapés at a sunset party. Regarding the buffet menu and beverages, all are flavorsome and eye-catching.
Pros
- A wide range of Vietnamese and Western buffet option
- Delicious dishes and seafood, especially the main course "Pan-seared sea bass fillet" at dinner
- Diverse experience to serve BBQ dinner or private dining on sundeck (upon request)
Cons
- Expensive drinks, limited options for cocktails and mocktails
Private dining on sundeck upon request
Activities & Itinerary - 9.6/10
Following the classic Halong Bay itinerary, Paradise Elegance takes advantage to maximize the number of visit attractions. On my 2-day-1-night trip, I visited 3 sightseeing spots with different kinds of activities: hiking, kayaking, swimming, and caving. In a nutshell, this cruise program is great for active travelers and nature lovers.
Pros
- Well-planned itinerary with more attractions than other cruises
- Amazing live music and dance by a Filipino band for night activity
- Various types of activities at limestone cave, beach, water cave, and floating village
- Modern speedboat with a large capacity of 198 seats and vending machines
Cons
- Additional charge for kayaking and bamboo boating
- 3D2N cruises depart on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays only
Energetic kayaking in a secluded part
Service - 10/10
As a 5-star international cruise line, Paradise Cruises Group always goes above and beyond with attentive services and professional staff from Vietnamese and Filipino crews onboard. Particularly, I appreciate the dedicated butler services and want to say special thanks to Ms. Korine.
Pros
- Supportive and knowledgeable crew team as well as cruise manager
- Exceptional butler services that very few cruises offer
- Excellent massage services with high-quality products and skills
Welcoming staff on and offboard

Hi Ivana
The top class on Paradise Elegance Cruise is the Captain's View Terrace Suite, which is still available on 9th Dec at $522/cabin for 2d1n. The weather now is lovely, just a bit cold. If you are in good health, you can freely swim and participate in other water activities.
Overall, a once-in-a-lifetime event with superb service, staff, and tour excursions. Highly recommended. The food was also great. The cabins were stunning, with large, comfy beds and plenty of space. We greatly liked our voyage and would definitely recommend this cruise line.
The entire crew is very friendly and helpful. Also, the food is amazing!!! Everything is fantastic! I hope to come back soon.
It was a positive experience. The events were quite engaging. Everybody took care of everything. The mood was quite pleasant. The food was wonderful, and there were plenty of options. The sheets and quilts were excellent.
The staff were fantastic; they were constantly helpful, friendly, and cheerful, ensuring that you had the best experience possible. The cuisine was delicious, and there was no limit on drinks. I loved how we dressed up for supper in traditional Vietnamese costumes and took cooking classes.
The experience was amazing!! The views of the mountains and caves were magnificent. There was never a dull moment; there were always things available, such as boating, hiking, squid fishing, live music performances, and relaxing with drinks. I would strongly recommend it to families and anybody looking for an unforgettable vacation!
Amazing and amazing experience! The crew was incredibly accommodating and educated. Thinh was our greatest favourite. He gave us a personal tour of Sung Sot Cave, pointing out all of the intriguing rock formations.
My boyfriend proposed on the boat, and the staff went above and beyond to make the occasion memorable.
