Great activities included. Great for families. Celebrated my daughter’s birthday and they made it special with a cake and singing. Harry - in the restaurant was fantastic. Included were kayaking, squid fishing, spring roll making, hike to Cat Ba caves. We stayed in the Mon Chéri suite, 301 - really glad we chose this - it was spacious and comfortable

Unclear information on duration of the shuttle boat. Apparently it took about 30-45 minutes from Cat Ba peer to the yacht (and return).

Crew was wonderful, especially Remy and Tammy, who helped extra miles with the travel and food. The whirlpool was warm and excellent for lounging. We got the elegance family room which is very spacious, with complete amenities even massage chair. Highly recommended when you are with family, group of 4-6.

The cave trip was too early and I felt like cattle being herded along.

The boat was excellent, our cabin was really comfortable, the food was amazing, the crew were friendly and helpful. The activities were fun.

This has been an absolutely stunning stay. The staff is incredible. The room is incredible, the food is incredible, the cocktails are incredible. The price is VERY fair for what you get. For the amount of luxury you get on the Mon Chéri you'd expect to pay at least five times the amount in Europe. The staff deserves all the praise they can get. Awesome people.

We can’t think of anything.

Nice luxury cruise that we enjoyed very much! As with all the cruises in the bay area (we did the 2D/1N), the schedule is quite intensive, but none of the activities are mandatory. We had a very spacious room with three beds, a balcony and even a massage chair. Food was abundant and good (both western and local options), drinks reasonably priced and cocktails were good. Last but not least, the staff was super friendly, no exceptions.

On arrival and departure at the marina, things were extremely frenetic, as the area for organising everyone combined several cruise bookings, owned by Big Bay group. This is a little disconcerting on arrival and upon departure (which felt rather hurried, more below). On the cruise itself, two very minor issues: lock on our balcony door could only work from the inside of our cabin and the PA speaker didn’t appear to work but that’s it. Not big enough problems for us to feel it spoilt anything, we had the itinerary to keep a check on things and a chair in front of the door kept the room door closed and room cool when enjoying the view from the balcony. If I were to be really pedantic, I might say that once the last excursion is over, staff are ready to prepare for the next guests, which is perfectly understandable, but there was a different vibe towards the end from some quarters.

I spent (what felt like) years of my life researching which cruise to go on from Ha Long Bay, and I was exceedingly pleased the research paid off, because our Mon Cheri cruise was superb. The staff make you feel like royalty and work exceedingly hard to keep the guests confortable and happy, even awkward guests with allergies and specific diets I was one of several and they really went out of their way for everyone, it seemed. The itinerary was well organised and executed and our cabin was everything we hoped for, apart from one or two very small issues. Thang and Andrew deserve special mentions. Thang kept her smile right until the end and was always extremely helpful. Andrew worked very hard to make sure our dining experiences were always excellent. Super cruise.

Food was not what we expected especially when you pay 400$ per night. Its not worth the amount paid for this trip. Breakfast and lunch was a big disappointment. Fruits were very limited and bananas were not fresh. Any drink except the water and tea is paid. You pay 400$ per night in order to pay extra for the drinks. At least some soft drinks could be included. We saw other cruises had some extra water activities, where we had only kayaking for 45 minutes. Very disappointed.

Room was big enough with lots of space and view was great.

Rooms need refreshing, weak water flow at shower Toilet were clogged The sailing schedule is tight and there is no time to enjoy the boat and the cruise The massage chair in the room was half broken and the pool a little neglected

Staff provide wonderfull and kindly service
