Originating from the desire to redefine the standard of beach resorts in Vietnam, Athena Group has pioneered leading the Ha Long yacht market into the era of solid steel-hulled superyachts from the period 2016-2017. Overcoming the limitations of traditional wooden ships, the group has built a classy resort ecosystem, where each ship is a work of art combining smart management thinking and the ability to sustainably exploit heritage value. In that strategic development, Athena Royal Cruise (launched in September 2019) is the most precious gem, representing the group’s outstanding maturity in both design and service. Positioned as the perfect upgraded version, Athena Royal realizes the “Boutique Cruise” philosophy – where luxury does not lie in giant scale but focuses on absolute privacy. With a system of 22 sophisticated cabins, the yacht operates as a “mobile resort complex”, giving maximum priority to personalizing the experience for customers, from the smallest details in neoclassical interior decoration to unique health care treatments in the heart of the bay. Athena Royal’s leadership is reinforced by a diverse sister fleet ecosystem, helping the group fully dominate all customer segments.

Athena Royal is equipped with a free Wi-Fi system in the restaurant area and common lobby. However, you should note that when the ship moves deep among the limestone islands of Halong Bay, the satellite signal may be unstable or lose local connection. This is a great opportunity for you to truly "disconnect" and enjoy nature. If there is an emergency, 4G/5G waves of major networks still operate quite stably at rest stops.
You can completely rest assured. Halong Bay is a closed sea area surrounded by thousands of rocky islands, so the water surface is very calm and there are rarely big waves like taking a boat to a remote island. In particular, Athena Royal is a steel-hulled yacht with a large size and heavy tonnage, with very high balance, so the ship moves extremely smoothly, with almost no feeling of shaking. If you are too sensitive, the reception team always has anti-sickness medicine and ginger tea available for 24/7 support.
Because the schedule combines rest and exercise, you should prepare:
Swimwear & sunscreen: For kayaking, swimming at Ti Top beach and relaxing in the Jacuzzi.
Sneakers/Sandals: To climb more than 400 stone steps at Ti Top island and visit the cave (the path may be a bit slippery).
Formal attire: For the Gala Dinner or sunset party on the Sundeck to have the most regal "check-in" photos.
Have. Athena Royal operates a large-capacity generator and hot water tank system, ensuring a continuous supply of electricity and hot water to all rooms as well as Spa and Sauna areas day and night. The sockets in the room are standard multi-purpose sockets, suitable for most electronic devices today.
Sure! Athena Royal is very strong in personalizing experiences. We support free basic decoration set-up at the dining table or in the room for special occasions. If you want a private dinner on the Sundeck or a custom-designed cake, please message us about 48 hours in advance and our staff will work with you to create the perfect surprise scenario.
According to regulations, the ship will leave the wharf at exactly 12:15. If you arrive late after the boat departure time, Athena Group will help arrange a speedboat (Tender) to take you out to catch up with the main ship on the bay. However, the cost of renting this speedboat will be paid by the customer themselves according to the regulations of the port authority. So, try to be at the waiting office at Halong International Guest Cruise Port before 11:45!
