Loved our time on the Peony 2 with the 2 night cruise.

The rooms were luxurious and brand new. The staff were cheerful and fun. The day trip was fantastic- loved the bike ride and kayaking.

The bay seemed quieter (still a fair number of boats) but nowhere near as many as a previous trip I did on Halong.

Food was fine- and plentiful. Was very good on the day boat.

They also mixed a good cocktail.

Couple Traveller

Peony is a young cruise ship with a very knowledgeable, experienced, and enthusiastic crew. My husband and I booked a 3D2N cruise that exceeded all of our expectations. The ship itself is new, beautiful, and well-designed. The rooms, bathrooms, and balconies all have a beautiful view of Ha Long Bay. The meals were creative, delicious, and filling. The activities were well organized, planned, and executed. There were also thoughtful touches at every turn (fresh juice after activities, cold towels, rice wine shots with the cooking class). And, most importantly, the staff were all very friendly, excited to be there, and great at making sure the patrons were all involved and taken care of. Ronaldo was our Cruise Director, and he legitimately made the trip. He was an effective Master of Ceremonies, took time to get to know each party, and hilarious to boot.

I was hesitant to write this review as I’d love to keep Peony a hidden gem, but it’s just too good not to share. You should know that the activities are basically the same no matter which cruise you book (kayaking, cooking class, cave, +/- bike ride through Viet Hai), but you should book Peony because of their attentiveness and attention to detail.
