Discover
the splendors of Halong Bay aboard the Halong Ginger, a
wooden junk that combines classic beauty with modern
comfort. Measuring 38 meters (125 feet) in length, this
newly built, custom-designed yacht features three decks
that house an elegant restaurant, two bars, a small
library, and a massage room—plus ten luxurious
sleeping cabins. With so much space, passengers can
truly unwind and enjoy the bay’s magnificent scenery.
While all
those who visit Halong Bay are charmed by the
archipelago’s beauty, few visitors are aware that the
three-thousand islands that dot this bay are home to
many rare plants, including species found nowhere else
in the world. We chose our boat’s name—Halong
Ginger—because, like the plant it was named after, our
junk is perfectly suited to this environment. With its
golden sails, polished woodwork and refined, Asian décor,
the Halong Ginger offers an unforgettable ambiance of
relaxed elegance. Join us, and see Halong Bay in style.
Measuring
38 meters (125 feet) long and 8 meters (23 feet) wide,
our custom-built wooden junk features three decks, all
outfitted with elegant Asian inspired decor. The lower
deck is devoted to Passenger Cabins, with sleeping space
for 20 people. The Reception, Restaurant, Ginger Bar,
Gift Shop and Library are all located on the main deck.
On the top deck passengers will find the Sunset Bar and
a spacious lounge area, perfect for our morning Tai Chi
classes, weekend BBQs and sunset cocktails.
Guests
are welcome to make use of our binoculars, snorkeling
equipment, and top-of-the-line Canadian made Seaward
kayaks.
Accommodation
While the
view is undoubtedly the best feature of each of our ten
guest cabins, guests will also appreciate the rooms’
tasteful décor and furnishings. To complement the
bay’s natural beauty we have outfitted the cabins in
natural materials: wood floors covered with sedge mats;
walls covered with woven bamboo panels; and ceilings
decorated with bamboo panels hand-painted with a ginger
motif. The standing shower, meanwhile, features mosaic
tiles in Ginger flower patterns.
