Our room was on the 10th floor which gave us a breathtaking view of the bay as well as the town. Our room has such a spacious and comfortable bed. I was so surprised at the way they decorated the room. It was artistically designed with the hidden charm of the moon's beauty and the ocean with 2 main color tones( white and blue). It 's so lovely! The breakfast was set on a menu, we chose twice of cappuccino coffee and Fullmoon breakfast, fresh orange juice . It was so delicious. The location is in the center with some big restaurant nearby and 5 minutes to the beach on foot. The staff were really polite and helpful, we also booked the tour with them and got a great boat trip - Kayaking (they own Cat Ba Ventures).

- "The boat is really great quality. (Looking at others half of them shouldn't be on the water) As the boat wasn't full, upgraded to a bigger cabin. Cabins are luxurious. Spa/swimming pool at the back was excellent, they even cooled the water down for us as it was far too hot for hot weather. Food was "wow" on first night. Set menu but ever so good including oysters, lobster and steak. Attentive staff. Buffet meals were excellent quality and variety of western choices if you want that. Definitely do the 2N option as 1 day option was rushed and they got less than 24 hours on board, most of it on excursions with 100s of others from other boats."

- "We had an incredible time on the cruise! My partner has allergies so neither of us eat shellfish and the staff had no issues catering to our dietary needs, we were so grateful and the food was delicious! It was my birthday on the night we were on board and the staff decorated our dinner table, brought out a cake and even gave me a small gift!! I couldn’t believe how wonderful it was. All of the staff are so attentive and kind! We never wanted for anything! There was so much food and it was so delicious! The cocktails were more expensive than elsewhere in Vietnam but that is understandable given we were on a cruise- they were also tasty! We participated in the kayaking and the cooking demonstration and loved both of those activities. We chose to pass on the hiking as we felt like a rest, so we stayed and enjoyed the lovely view from the boats rooftop. We had an amazing time and our only regret is not doing the two nights! If you’re on the fence- book for two nights, this is an amazing cruise and you won’t regret it!"

- "Loved our little chalet. Great shower with a great view. A little out of town but it was an enjoyable walk to the seafront." - "We loved our little cabin away from it all. The cabin itself is basic but that’s what we wanted. The bed was comfortable and the hosts were very accommodating, providing us with a kettle for our coffee in the morning as we are early risers. The gardens are beautiful, the view of the lake is stunning and it was lovely having Gừng (resident golden retriever) always hanging around. We rented a scooter for our stay as it’s a little bit out of town but Cat Ba is very easy to get around, there isn’t a lot of traffic so. During our stay a typhoon hit and the staff did a great job looking after all the guests despite no power for two days. Thankyou to all the staff at Blue Lagoon, we loved our stay."

Cut off and very secluded yet still a very short walk to get to the town centre of Cat Ba island. And where the hotel is, is incredible. The views from the outside pool - wow, from the roof - wow & from our own bedroom - WOW! Have never seen anything like it. The decor: The hotel design is immaculate. Maybe one of the nicest I've ever seen in my own humble opinion. The attention to detail is just amazing, such a welcoming, warm and calming vibe too. The room: Gorgeous!! our room was honestly so beautiful and soooo comfortable. The bed was incredible. It was very clean, fresh and smelt amazing. The general maintenance and upkeep of everything is to the highest level. The staff: They were lovely. Very helpful, friendly and professional. Language barrier was a little bit of an issue at times but to be expected. The food: The restaurants of the hotel are great, food was really good. We enjoyed eating there a few nights in a row. Honestly, I've been travelling around vietnam for 6 weeks, I've stayed at I think around 15 or 16 accommodations so far, many of them being 5* and this hotel in particular was one of my favorite highlights if not my number 1 most favorite hotel.
