Hosting two Soul Sanctuary Exclusive Cruises on 10th November and 3rd December as part of Debut Season.
Halong Bay : Bhaya Cruises, a pioneer in luxury cruising on Ha Long Bay for nearly two decades, proudly announces the launch of Bhaya Soul, the bay’s first all-inclusive wellness cruise. Designed for discerning travellers seeking balance, beauty, and mindful exploration, Bhaya Soul redefines the cruising experience with an immersive approach that nourishes both body and mind. Bhaya Soul joins Bhaya Cruises three other cruise boats – The Au Co Bhaya Legend and Bhaya Classic
To celebrate its debut season Bhaya Soul is offering two exclusive wellness cruises on 10th November and 3rd December, The Soul Sanctuary programmes promise a deeply immersive wellness journey—combining yoga, sound healing, and mindfulness rituals with the awe-inspiring natural beauty of Halong Bay.
Designed as a holistic escape for the mind, body, and spirit, each sailing transforms the Bhaya Soul into a floating sanctuary of calm and connection. With only a limited number of guests per voyage, this is an unmissable opportunity to experience wellness at sea in one of the world’s most breathtaking destinations. Guests on board the Bhaya Soul can expect a fully immersive experience for the mind and body, all set against a backdrop of spectacular rock formations as you gently cruise around the bay. This is a meticulous series of events that aim to offer passengers an array of meaningful moments set to turn the Bhaya Soul experience into much more than just a boutique luxury cruise.
Set amidst the ethereal UNESCO World Heritage backdrop of Ha Long Bay’s limestone karsts, Bhaya Soul offers a new dimension of luxury travel, combining boutique comfort, personalisation, and holistic wellness.
With just 20 spacious cabins, each featuring a private terrace and a bay-view bathtub, Bhaya Soul ensures absolute privacy. Guests can indulge in refined gastronomy with locally inspired menus, flexible dining, and personalised service — all included. Every stay also features a complimentary 40-minute spa treatment, embodying the ship’s wellness-first philosophy.
Beyond the vessel, Bhaya Soul curates a series of meaningful excursions that bring Ha Long Bay’s natural and cultural wonders to life. Guests can kayak through the serene lagoons and hidden tunnels of Ba Hầm Lake, explore the mysterious Tiên Ông Cave with its ancient stalactites and archaeological significance, or cycle through Việt Hải Village, connecting with local communities and their traditional way of life. Every activity is designed to encourage mindful exploration and a deeper appreciation of the destination.
In the past there has been a limited range of cruises to choose from that truly cater to luxury travellers, but Bhaya Cruises has changed all that. Its unique overnight cruise experience on board the Bhaya Soul is designed especially for those with the most discerning of tastes and prioritises privacy and personalisation to offer an unequivocally elevated experience.
Operating in the bay for nearly two decades, Bhaya Cruises has garnered a reputation for excellence, and its fourth-generation vessel, Bhaya Soul, has already been making waves amongst affluent travellers thanks to its philosophy of slower and more meaningful travel. It caters not just to the traveller who wants to see the most obvious sights, but to those who wish to dive a little deeper – taking them on a unique journey that aims to acquaint them with the harmony between nature, culture and self.
Dining on Board
During Bhaya Soul’s two-day, one-night and three-day, two-night itineraries, guests enjoy full access to onboard events and luxury amenities, including a serene lounge and bar, and an elegant restaurant offering à-la-carte and buffet dining. Each meal celebrates Vietnam’s culinary heritage with fresh, seasonal ingredients sourced from local farms and gardens, presented through innovative, modern gastronomy.
A Conscious Choice
Committed to sustainability, Bhaya Cruises integrates eco-conscious design, advanced waste management, and local sourcing, while actively supporting community and conservation initiatives.
The modern luxury traveller is now more environmentally conscious than ever before, and Bhaya Cruises goes to great lengths to manage its ecological footprint to ensure it represents a more sustainable choice.
On board, advanced wastewater treatment, waste sorting and energy solutions are all employed to reduce the environmental impact, and eco-friendly materials have been selected throughout the vessel and its interior design.
Bhaya Cruises is also actively involved in various nature, culture and community conservation projects, taking both its environmental and social responsibility footprint seriously – so guests can board their cruise with peace of mind that in selecting Bhaya Cruises, they will be helping to give something back.
Bhaya Soul is more than a cruise; it’s a soulful voyage — where nature, culture, and self- converge.
