What Makes Azura Cruise Different
Every suite has a balcony and an ocean-view bathtub
Even the entry Baylight Suite is 34 m² with a private balcony and a bathtub set against the window, so you can soak while the karsts slide past. Many ships in this price range keep bathtubs for their upper categories only.
A 12-metre four-season infinity pool plus a jacuzzi
The infinity pool is heated for year-round use, and a jacuzzi sits beside the sundeck for the sunset happy hour. Both are included for every guest, not only suite holders.
Small for its size: 30 suites on an 80-metre ship
Azura is a large ship carrying only 30 suites (64 guests at most overnight), which leaves room for a 265 m² restaurant, a spa and sauna, a fitness room, a lounge and the open-air Sol & Sea Sky Bar.
Two Imperial Suites with a private sauna
The two 66 m² Imperial Suites add a private terrace with sun loungers, a sauna, a smart toilet, a minibar and VIP dining in the restaurant, a rare combination on Lan Ha Bay.
Who Azura Cruise Is Best For
Book it if you are
- A couple or honeymooners who want a bathtub with a view in every category
- A family of three: Baylight and Horizon both have triple-bed suites
- A traveller who wants a brand-new ship on the quieter Lan Ha Bay route
- A guest who will use a pool: the infinity pool works in all four seasons
Choose another cruise if you want
- Certified halal food on board: see our halal Halong Bay cruises
- The classic Halong Bay sights such as Sung Sot Cave and Ti Top Island; Azura sails to Lan Ha Bay instead
- A day trip only: Azura runs overnight cruises

Not to be confused with
Azura Cruise in Vietnam is a Halong Bay overnight ship. It is not related to Azura, the ocean cruise ship of the British line P&O Cruises, which often appears in searches for “Azura cruise ship”.
Local Expert Notes from Our Hanoi Team
These tips come from more than a decade of arranging Halong Bay trips for international travellers; ship details are checked against Azura Cruise’s published 2026 information.
- The Horizon Suites on the 2nd deck sit higher than the Baylight Suites, so the balcony view is wider for a small price step
- Only two Imperial Suites exist; book them early for honeymoons and anniversaries
- There are four triple suites in total, so families of three should book as soon as dates are fixed
- Choose 3 days if you want to see village life in Viet Hai and swim at Ba Trai Dao
- Holiday nights (30 April, 1 May, 1–2 September, 24 and 31 December, Lunar New Year) carry a surcharge
