Overview

Paradise Grand Cruise – A Modern Masterpiece in Lan Ha Bay

An Elevated Cruise Experience in Lan Ha Bay

Embark on a refined journey with Paradise Grand Cruise, a flagship of the prestigious Paradise Group, designed to offer the epitome of luxury cruising in the breathtaking waters of Lan Ha Bay. While many cruises roam the more crowded Halong Bay, Paradise Grand takes you on a path less traveled, showcasing a more serene and unspoiled side of the UNESCO-recognized seascape.

This state-of-the-art steel ship boasts sleek modern architecture, harmoniously blended with traditional Vietnamese elements. With expansive decks, contemporary interiors, and a dedicated onboard butler service, Paradise Grand is the embodiment of understated elegance and comfort. Whether you seek romantic tranquility, family bonding, or corporate sophistication, the cruise delivers tailored experiences to meet every expectation.

Contemporary Design Meets Classic Hospitality

Unlike traditional wooden junks, Paradise Grand was built with luxury and durability in mind. The ship features 39 spacious cabins, all with private balconies and floor-to-ceiling windows offering sweeping bay views. The décor embraces minimalist elegance – think crisp linens, subtle tones, and artisanal accents – creating a calm and polished ambiance.

Guests are treated to bespoke à la carte meals, from fresh-caught seafood to fine international cuisine, served at the elegant La Espacia Restaurant. The Captain’s Lounge and Piano Bar, with its curated wine list and ambient setting, is the perfect place to unwind after excursions.

Where Culture, Cuisine, and Nature Converge

Your voyage includes excursions to pristine beaches, ancient caves, and local villages, as well as onboard enrichment such as Tai Chi classes, traditional cooking lessons, and spa treatments. Paradise Grand also offers personalized arrangements for weddings, honeymoons, and private events, making it an ideal venue for unforgettable milestones.

Every detail, from the curated itinerary to the personalized service, is crafted to provide a seamless and memorable journey through Vietnam’s most iconic seascape.
