Violet is back with a stunning look!

The spotlight shines bright on Heritage Line ‘Violet’ as she made her grand comeback—and oh, what a return it is! Sleek, stylish, and utterly enchanting, this boutique beauty is the smallest yet most vibrant gem in Heritage Line’s fleet. ‘Violet’ has always been the top pick for romantics, privacy-seekers, and lovers of exclusive charter adventures.

After a stunning makeover, she’s ready to whisk guests away through the breathtaking wonder of Bai Tu Long – Halong Bay, offering a reimagined luxury experience. Ready to set sail? Let this vessel remind you why she’s the crown jewel of boutique cruising.


Revitalized Suites with Unique Themes

Each of Violet’s six suites, named after Halong Bay’s natural wonders like Water, Mountain, and Moon, has been entirely refreshed. The redesign brings brighter tones, modern touches, and upgraded amenities, while still preserving the charm of the ship’s French-Indochinese and Art-Deco influences.

Though ‘Violet’ features just six suites, each room offers a generously spacious layout and thoughtful design that ensures exceptional comfort and privacy. This makes them ideal for anniversaries, honeymoons, or a tranquil escape from the everyday. Each suite features a private balcony and floor-to-ceiling panoramic windows, bringing Halong Bay’s majestic limestone karsts closer than ever. Sip coffee as the morning mist rises or toast to the sunset’s romance, every moment is yours to savor, alone or with loved ones.


Refined Public Spaces

Violet’s boutique size is a symbol of its exclusivity, offering an intimate and peaceful environment free from the hustle of larger vessels. Guests can relish the personal sanctuary of their suite while also embracing the ship’s cozy and carefully crafted public spaces, designed to balance connection and solitude seamlessly. Here, privacy and serenity are not just promises, but they’re part of the experience.

The restaurant now features a reimagined design, creating a more luxurious ambiance that enhances the overall dining experience. Meanwhile, the lounge, bar, and spa have been polished with new furnishings and carefully curated décor, offering cozy corners ideal for unwinding after a day of exploring Halong Bay.


Exclusive Private Dining

An indulgent secret awaits aboard Violet: the newly added, exquisite private dining sanctuary. Designed for couples, honeymooners, or intimate gatherings, this one-of-a-kind venue offers more than just a meal – it’s an experience of pure enchantment.

Whether it’s a milestone celebration or a quiet evening of indulgence, this exclusive dining space transforms any occasion into an unforgettable memory.

To secure this experience, pre-booking, with a personalized menu selection, is required at the time of cruise reservation.


Enhanced Sun Deck for Ultimate Privacy

The sun deck, a favorite among guests all the time, has been further refined to prioritize privacy and serenity. Each passenger is provided with a dedicated, luxurious sunbed (maximum of 12 guests), ensuring ample space and comfort. For couples, the newly added loungers at the rear of the deck offer an idyllic retreat to share Halong Bay’s breathtaking sunsets in a more intimate setting. Flexible alfresco dining options further enhance the experience, with tables carefully arranged to showcase the panoramic beauty of the bay.
