The arc of the journey
Day one
Sparkling wine as the shore gives way to open water. Retreat into your gorgeous suite. Sunset drinks as the bay changes light. Nightfall arrives with a quiet sleep-well meditation to guide you into deep rest.
Day two
A slow morning in a la carte style breakfast with a signature Ha Long bowl. A warm herbal foot ritual to unwind, leading into dusk as the limestone karsts soften into silhouette.
Day three
Begin with a mindful morning walk inside Tien Ong Cave as soft light enters the cavern. Savor your last morning afloat before disembarking - for your sanctuary merely shifts from sea to river.
The privilege
One complimentary night at Namia River Retreat: apothecary, herbal steam, traditional therapy, lantern light on the river.
Ha Long Bay
At sea
Vietnam's first wellness-inclusive boutique luxury cruise, Bhaya Soul drifts among Ha Long Bay's limestone formations at an unhurried, peaceful pace.
Across four decks, an exclusive collection of twenty suites spans four distinct categories: Signature, Symphony, Horizon, and Soul Legacy; each inspired by the cruise's defining themes: Asian Scenery, Nature Symphony, and Quiet Harmony. Every category encompasses the complete wellness experience and full eligibility for the gifted night in Hoi An.
One of the most gorgeous boutique vessels on the bay. With only twenty luxury suites, each opens to its own private bathtub framed by sweeping bay views, crafted so the ship never feels full and the waters never feel shared.
Designed for relaxed discovery across both bays, steering clear of tourist routes to embrace Ba Ham Lake, Tien Ong Cave, Cua Van Floating Village, and Trinh Nu Beach & Cave. Sightseeing and excursion fees are fully covered.
Vietnamese culinary heritage reimagined through refined Western technique, composed from the freshest local seasonal ingredients to create a perfect modern fusion dining scene.
A 10-minute organic herbal foot ritual and a 30-minute wellness treatment, in flexible slots; either before or after the morning mindful walks and sleep-well meditation beneath the stars.
A heated all-season pool with 180° seascape views, framed by a lounge that flows seamlessly between indoor and outdoor spaces. Above, the sun deck offers an extraordinary vantage point where refined design meets the natural grandeur of the bay.
A Soul host provides thoughtful, attentive service throughout your voyage, ensuring every detail of your wellness journey is seamlessly taken care of.

Nipa Pool Villa
On the quiet Cồn Ba Xã islet, minutes from Hoi An's old town and a world away from it — an all-pool-villa retreat where wellbeing draws on Southern Herbology, the folk medicine Vietnamese families have practised for generations.
Your gifted night is a Nipa Pool Villa — a one-bedroom private pool villa with Nipa palm forest views, drawn from the retreat's Craft with Nature inspiration. Nothing about it is reduced: the same daily wellness journey, the same apothecary ritual, the same personal host.
One bedroom, open-plan with sunken bathtub and pool views. En-suite with vanity and shower, a lounge opening onto a terrace with pool loungers, and bamboo bicycles at the door.
A 30-minute herbal steam followed by a 60-minute traditional therapy at Lumina Wellbeing & Spa — included for every guest, every night.
Your journey begins at the apothecary, choosing the herbs that will steep in your steam — Thuốc Nam, blended for how you actually feel that day.
Served whenever you surface, at The Merchant or The Fisherman. No sitting, no service window — the retreat runs on your rhythm.
Fifteen minutes at the water's edge as the light goes. Preceded, if you like, by a silent walk and a wish tied at the wishing tree.
An hour downriver as the light turns gold. By day, the river shuttle runs to the old town, and bamboo bicycles trace the Nipa palm forest.

Before you begin
Nothing to redeem. When your suite is confirmed, our specialists contact you to set your Namia arrival date and send a single confirmation covering both properties. Your personal host at Namia is briefed before you arrive.
Yes — once confirmed in writing. Because the gift is tied to Nipa Pool Villa inventory, availability is limited and dates are held on a first-confirmed basis. We will not release a cruise booking without securing your Namia night alongside it.
Most guests do. Additional nights at Namia are offered at preferential rates and include the 90-minute wellness journey for every night stayed. Extra nights aboard Bhaya Soul can be arranged subject to sailing schedules.
All four suite categories qualify — Signature, Symphony, Horizon and Soul Legacy. The offer is valid for eligible travel through 31 October 2026, and closes earlier if Nipa Pool Villa allocation is taken. We recommend confirming early for weekend sailings.
Yes. Most guests fly Ha Long to Da Nang directly after disembarkation, but your gifted night can be placed later within the same trip, provided your travel dates fall on or before 31 October 2026.
Three nights, two properties, one uninterrupted rhythm.
