About Athena Royal Cruise

Athena Royal is one of 4 brands of the reputable Athena Group in Halong Bay. The ship was launched in 2017 and quickly won the hearts of leisure travelers.
 
Offering 22 deluxe suites with a private balcony in each, Athena Royal guarantees a stay with not only modern amenities but also stunning views and utmost comfort. There are 4 room categories measuring 25 to 45 sqm which are Executive Suite, Elegant Suite, Premium Suite and Royal Suite. If you are a family with 1-2 children, the connecting rooms are available upon request.
 
Athena Royal invites you to immerse in the breathtaking view of Halong Bay and explore landmarks such as Surprise Cave, Titov Island, and Luon Cave. For a longer itinerary, you will access the further part with pristine spots such as Tung Sau Area and Me Cung Cave. Kayaking, swimming, climbing, and more activities onboard are waiting for you to participate.
 
Last but not least, don't miss the convenient facilities onboard to enhance your experience. The sundeck is equipped with sun loungers for sunbathing and unwinding. You can also join the cooking class, morning Taichi or grab some drinks and socialize with other passengers. The jacuzzi is ideal for some relaxing dips. Besides, a spa and sauna would be the perfect way to release all the stress and muscle tension. That is not to mention a bunch of dishes from local and Western cuisine that the talented chef will prepare for you.

The staff were very attentive. They took care of us and my food allergies very well. Food was delicious and plentiful. A big thank you to Miss Lilly, Mr. Chien, Vinnie, and the rest of the staff. Cooking spring rolls was interesting. We explored Sung Sot Cave, Titop Island and Luon Cave. Views were incredible. We can't wait to come back.

Everything was amazing. Transfer service from/to our hotel (please note that it can cover Hanoi Old Quarter only). We were warmly welcomed by the staff, they did a great job. Most of the time was spent on outdoor excursions, they were very well organized and punctual. the chefs had a great hand in preparing our meals, the food was delicious from start to finish, we couldn't fault it. the sunset party was the highlight of the experience watching the sunset while enjoying creative drinks. Can't wait to come back on this boat with our family.

Excellent
Our family chose Athena by friend’s recommendation. It was our dream trip. We were taken care of by a dedicated team. They were attentive to every single request and always made sure we were happy. We booked 2 adjacent rooms on the main deck, excellent view, clean, and comfortable. Food was diverse, they served suitable options for children and ones with diet. Program was well organized. We love the cave tour. Kayaking was amazing. Worth every penny!

Our room was nice and comfortable. The staff went out of their way to accommodate our requests. Our guide Andy was informative and very caring. The food was tasty. Nothing to dislike.
