The Cruise

2 Days / 1 Night aboard the Capella Cruise.

Named after the brightest star in the northern sky and launched in 2020, the Capella is an all-suite vessel across six decks, 30 airy suites in a retro Indochina style, each with floor-to-ceiling windows, a private balcony or terrace and an ocean-view bathtub. It's the bay's most playful luxury cruise, with a signature inflatable waterslide, an Oasis pool and jacuzzi, a mini-golf course, a cigar & poker club and the Sea Melody theatre. Its route runs into the quieter Lan Ha Bay, taking in the Frog Lagoon (Ao Ech) area and the Dark & Bright Cave by bamboo boat, with kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, swimming, a cooking demonstration, a sunset happy hour and morning Tai Chi.
