Sundeck & La Piscine

Sun lovers will relish time on the sundeck whilst soaking up the balmy rays of the sunshine and indulging in a foot massage or cocktail.

Sliding doors lead from the Outdoor Lounge to the inviting swimming pool on the Panorama Deck, complete with private cabanas and 360-degree views. North Vietnam has four seasons – very hot in the summer and cool in the winter – so we have designed a heated swimming pool which can be used year-round. It is also the largest cruise pool in the Gulf of Tonkin, with an area of 32m2, and a shallow end just 1,2m deep.

Sunchairs and umbrellas are available for our guests, and a fully stocked pool bar is there to everyone’s delight.

Early morning, greet the sunrise with a calm and tranquil mind by joining one of our classes: Vovinam, a Vietnamese martial art or Tai Chi, a form of yoga and meditation combined. Tai Chi animates the body and provides a practical avenue for balance, alignment and a perfect rhythm of movement.

At night, the sundeck is the place to go to study the constellations and shooting stars through our telescope, as the lack of light pollution makes the night sky a true spectacle. The sundeck is the ideal space for a wedding, birthday, pool party or just enjoy the luxury of doing absolutely nothing.
