It was a fantastic family vacation. We appreciated the activities (particularly the early morning kayaking) and the meals. The room was in excellent shape, with a pleasant outlook and adequate water pressure.

Mr. Lee and I were on a two-day, one-night cruise. We got the complete bay experience, from fishing to kayaking, swimming to cooking traditional Vietnamese meals.
