Heritage Line Ylang Cruise - The Quintessence Of Luxury And Wellness Cruising

The state-of-the-art Ylang Cruise Ship from Heritage Line explores the remote regions of the breathtaking Lan Ha Bay. She beckons people to go on a sensory voyage with her vibrant charm. Inspired by local poetry, Ylang's interior features a lovely floral leitmotif. The ship exudes an antique Indochina vibe that combines with the displayed artwork collection.

Her accommodations are the best in the area, and her top suites are the pinnacle of a luxury cruise ship in Halong. Although the ship has opulent amenities, what sets Ylang apart from the competition is her vast wellness sanctuary with amazing spa treatments and her specially designed itinerary that allows guests to explore the isolated Lan Ha Bay in peace while engaging in health-inspired activities.

Ylang's mother Ginger, the most elegant and senior of the Halong Bay sisters, gave her the attractive appearance that she had. As the first child of this aristocratic family's third generation, Ylang developed a deep bond with her traditional Vietnamese design and Indochine background. Her passion for flowers is evident throughout the ship, where floral-themed artifacts representing the four seasons can be discovered.
