Where to stay in Ha Long Bay

Ha Long Bay is a seascape of limestone pinnacles rising from emerald water. The most memorable way to stay is on an overnight cruise through the bay, with kayaking in quiet lagoons and a deck for sunset.

Where to stay

Choose a cruise on a smaller boat for a more personal stay, ideally one that visits the quieter bays away from the main routes. Land hotels in Bai Chay suit travelers who just want a night near the harbor.

Good to know

Spring and autumn are best. Mist is common in the early months, and typhoons can cancel cruises in summer.
