The five-star Starlight Cruise launched in Ha Long Bay by the Oriental Sails Company last Sunday is offering a 2 day-1 night package at US$185 per person in September and $215 from October 1 to December 31.

Oriental claims the 58m cruise vessel is the safest in Ha Long with more than three metres of draft. The company operates just the one luxury ship now but plans to add four more.

Starlight Cruise has 32 cabins besides a restaurant, a bar, two lounges, a library, a wine cellar, hot tubs, and a mini-golf course. — VNS
