New Lan Ha Bay Cruises 2025 | Complete Guide & Comparison

Several new luxury cruises joined the Lan Ha Bay fleet in 2025, bringing newer cabins, contemporary onboard facilities and more choices for travelers looking beyond the classic Halong Bay route.

The new Lan Ha Bay cruises 2025 in this guide are Lyra Grandeur Cruise, Indochine Grand Cruise, Aqua Luxury Cruise and Majesty Prime Cruise. They range from 24 to 33 cabins, with accommodation from 28 m² to spacious suites of around 100 m² and above depending on the vessel.

Although all four are relatively new, they offer different experiences. Some emphasize large suites and extensive onboard facilities, while others provide a smaller-scale cruise experience or a more accessible starting price.

This guide compares their ship size, cabins, pools, elevators, starting prices and overall experience to help you decide which may fit your trip.

New Lan Ha Bay Cruises 2025 at a Glance

Price From: USD/person, excluding 8% VAT. Rates are for reference and may vary according to travel date, cabin category and occupancy.

Lyra Grandeur Cruise

Launched in August 2025, Lyra Grandeur is one of the more substantial new additions to Lan Ha Bay. It has 33 suites across a large six-deck vessel and combines contemporary luxury with Indochine-inspired design.

Rather than focusing only on accommodation, Lyra Grandeur Cruise has been designed as a resort-style cruise with a broad range of facilities for travelers who want the ship itself to be an important part of their Lan Ha Bay experience.

Cabins & Accommodation

Lyra Grandeur offers 33 suites, with accommodation starting around 32 m² and reaching 92 m² for the Owner Suite. All suites feature panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows together with private balconies or terraces.

The higher categories add considerably more living space and premium features. The 92 m² Owner Suite, for example, includes separate bedroom and seating areas, a private sundeck, steam bath and ocean-view bathtub with Jacuzzi.

This makes Lyra particularly interesting for travelers who see the cabin as a major part of their cruise experience rather than simply somewhere to sleep.

Onboard Experience & Highlights

Lyra Grandeur has one of the more extensive facility collections among these four cruises.

Its facilities include an all-season pool and Jacuzzi, spa, fitness room, mini-golf, outdoor Nordic-style sauna and panoramic sundeck. The vessel also has an elevator.

The itinerary combines Lan Ha Bay scenery with activities around the Cat Ba area, giving guests both an onboard resort experience and active sightseeing.

Who May Like Lyra Grandeur Cruise?

Lyra Grandeur may particularly suit travelers looking for a larger, facility-rich luxury vessel, spacious accommodation and premium suites.

It is also worth considering for couples and families who value private balconies, ocean-view bathtubs and a wider choice of onboard recreation.

Price from: USD 225/person excluding 8% VAT.

Indochine Grand Cruise

Officially launched in January 2025, with daily bookings beginning in February, Indochine Grand Cruise is the newest member of the long-established Indochina Sails fleet. It carries 32 cabins and combines traditional Indochinese design with contemporary luxury facilities.

Compared with Lyra Grandeur Cruise, the cabin-size range is more compact, but Indochine Grand Cruise places strong emphasis on design, private balconies and the overall onboard atmosphere.

Cabins & Accommodation

Indochine Grand has four principal accommodation categories: 28 m² Junior Suites, 36 m² Suites, a 40 m² Executive Suite and a 58 m² Presidential Suite.

All 32 cabins feature private balconies, while natural wood interiors and Indochinese decorative details give the accommodation a distinctive character.

This relatively straightforward cabin structure can also make the cruise easier to compare for travelers who do not need a very large number of suite categories.

Onboard Experience & Highlights

The ship combines its accommodation with an outdoor Jacuzzi pool, rooftop panoramic bar, fine-dining spaces, mini-golf and spacious sundeck. Importantly for our comparison, the operator’s current information also lists an elevator among the vessel’s facilities. Its overnight programs combine the onboard experience with kayaking or bamboo-boat activities and sightseeing around Lan Ha Bay.

Who May Like Indochine Grand Cruise?

Indochine Grand may appeal to travelers who prefer Indochinese design, private balconies in every cabin and a medium-sized luxury ship rather than the largest resort-style vessels.

It is also a strong consideration for travelers who want both a pool and elevator without moving into the highest starting-price range in this 2025 collection.

Price from: USD 159/person excluding 8% VAT.

Aqua Luxury Cruise

Launched in November 2025, Aqua Luxury Cruise has 32 suites and operates through Lan Ha Bay and the Cat Ba area. Current operator information positions it as the flagship of the Aqua Hospitality Group fleet.

Aqua Luxury Cruise combines balcony accommodation with an extensive collection of onboard facilities and an itinerary that gives Cat Ba Island an important role in the overall experience.

Cabins & Accommodation

Aqua Luxury Cruise offers 32 cabins ranging from 28 to 45 m², with a selection of accommodation designed for couples, families and small groups.

A key feature is the combination of private outdoor space and bay views across its cabin collection, while connecting accommodation provides an option for families or groups who prefer adjoining cabins.

Rather than choosing by cabin name alone, compare the cabin size, balcony or terrace, bathroom features, deck location and occupancy configuration to find the most suitable option.

Onboard Experience & Highlights

Aqua Luxury offers a four-season swimming pool and Jacuzzi, spa, gym, mini-golf, restaurant, bars and elevator.

Its itinerary is also an important selling point. The 2D1N program combines Tra Bau in Lan Ha Bay with Trung Trang Cave on Cat Ba Island, while the longer 3D2N itinerary adds experiences such as Viet Hai Village and further kayaking or swimming.

This makes Aqua Luxury particularly relevant to our future “2 Destinations in 1 Trip – Lan Ha Bay + Cat Ba Island” collection.

Who May Like Aqua Luxury Cruise?

Aqua Luxury may suit travelers who want a combination of balcony accommodation, ocean-view bathtubs, a swimming pool, elevator and Cat Ba Island sightseeing.

Its connecting accommodation can also make it worth considering for families and small groups.

Price from: USD 159/person excluding 8% VAT.

Majesty Prime Cruise

Majesty Prime Cruise is a 24-cabin cruise launched in 2025, making it the smallest vessel by cabin count among the four new Lan Ha Bay cruises in this comparison. Current published information places its accommodation between approximately 35 and 60 m².

Its combination of moderate ship size, balcony accommodation and a lower entry price gives Majesty Prime a different position from the more facility-intensive ships above.

Cabins & Accommodation

Majesty Prime offers several cabin categories built around approximately three main size levels.

Junior and Senior cabins are around 35 m², several higher categories are around 45 m², while the Prime Panorama Terrace Suite reaches approximately 60 m². Published information indicates that the cabins include private balconies.

This means even its entry-level accommodation starts at a relatively generous size.

Onboard Experience & Highlights

Majesty Prime operates through Lan Ha Bay and the Cat Ba area, with published routes incorporating locations such as Dark & Bright Cave, Viet Hai Village and Ba Trai Dao Beach depending on the itinerary.

Under our cruise-level facility classification, Majesty Prime is categorized Pool: Yes. It is not currently classified as having a general passenger elevator.

Who May Like Majesty Prime Cruise?

Majesty Prime may suit travelers who prefer a smaller new cruise, spacious entry-level cabins and a more accessible starting price.

It can therefore be especially interesting when the priority is cabin space and value rather than choosing the largest ship or the longest list of onboard facilities.

Price from: USD 135/person excluding 8% VAT.

How Do the New Lan Ha Bay Cruises 2025 Compare?

Although all four belong to the new Lan Ha Bay cruises 2025 collection, their differences are more useful than their shared launch year when deciding which one to book.

Cruise Size & Number of Cabins

The four ships are relatively close in cabin count:

1. Lyra Grandeur Cruise: 33 cabins
2. Indochine Grand Cruise: 32 cabins
3. Aqua Luxury Cruise: 32 cabins
4. Majesty Prime Cruise: 24 cabins

Majesty Prime Cruise is therefore the smallest by cabin count, while Lyra Grandeur Cruise is the largest. However, the difference between 24 and 33 cabins is not large enough by itself to determine the onboard atmosphere.

Cabin Sizes

Lyra Grandeur Cruise stands out at the upper end with its 92 m² Owner Suite, while Majesty Prime is notable because its entry accommodation begins at approximately 35 m².

Indochine Grand Cruise has a more compact 28-58 m² range, while Aqua Luxury Cruise offers cabins from 28-45 m², including options for couples and connecting accommodation for families or groups.

For families, cabin size alone should not determine suitability. Bed configuration, connecting options, maximum occupancy and the children’s exact ages should also be checked.

Pools & Onboard Facilities

All four cruises qualify as Pool: Yes in our cruise-level comparison. However, the facilities are not identical. Lyra Grandeur Cruise offers an all-season pool and Jacuzzi, while Indochine Grand Cruise has an outdoor Jacuzzi pool. Aqua Luxury Cruise combines a four-season pool and Jacuzzi with gym and mini-golf facilities.

Therefore, “Pool: Yes” should be used as a quick comparison filter rather than an indication that every ship provides the same pool experience.

Elevator Availability

Lyra Grandeur Cruise, Indochine Grand Cruise and Aqua Luxury Cruise have elevators. Current operator information supports these facilities. Majesty Prime Cruise is not currently classified with a general passenger elevator.

Travelers with mobility requirements should also consider cabin deck, tender transfers and the physical demands of offboard activities rather than looking at the elevator alone.

Starting Prices (excluding 8% VAT):

1. Majesty Prime Cruise: from USD 135/person
2. Indochine Grand Cruise: from USD 159/person
3. Aqua Luxury Cruise: from USD 159/person
4. Lyra Grandeur Cruise: from USD 225/person

These are useful starting references, but they should not be interpreted as a complete price comparison. The final rate depends on travel date, cabin category, occupancy and availability.

Which New Lan Ha Bay Cruise Fits Your Trip?

Do You Prefer a Larger or Smaller Cruise?

Majesty Prime Cruise has the fewest cabins at 24, while Lyra Grandeur Cruise has 33. If ship scale matters to you, cabin count provides a useful starting point, but public-space design and passenger capacity should also be considered.

Is a Spacious Cabin Important?

Majesty Prime Cruise starts with relatively spacious accommodation at around 35 m², while Lyra Grandeur Cruise provides some of the largest premium suites in the collection.

If your priority is a family configuration rather than simply the largest room, Aqua Luxury Cruise’s connecting accommodation deserves separate consideration.

Do You Want a Pool?

All four cruises qualify as having a shared pool or Jacuzzi facility. Compare the actual type, location and size rather than choosing solely from a Yes/No field.

Do You Need an Elevator?

Consider Lyra Grandeur Cruise, Indochine Grand Cruise or Aqua Luxury Cruise if a passenger elevator is important. However, an elevator onboard does not remove every mobility consideration because excursions can still involve tender boats, steps, caves, kayaking or walking.

What Is Your Approximate Budget?

Majesty Prime Cruise currently has the lowest reference starting price in this collection, while Lyra Grandeur Cruise sits at the highest end. Rather than comparing entry prices alone, use:

Travel Date + Cabin Type + Occupancy + Itinerary + Onboard Facilities + Final Price

Should You Choose a New Cruise Just Because It Is New?

Not necessarily. A newly launched cruise can offer newer accommodation, contemporary facilities and modern ship design, but launch year does not tell you whether its route, cabin or overall experience is right for your trip.

An established Lan Ha Bay cruise may offer a cabin configuration, itinerary or price that suits you better. A more useful way to choose is:

Bay & Itinerary + Cabin + Cruise Size + Facilities + Travel Date + Budget

The newest ship should therefore be considered one option, not automatically the best choice for every traveler.
