Designed to combine the signature luxury travel lifestyle of the Elegance Hospitality Group and the unparalleled freedom of a yachting vacation, the Essence Yachts will offer authentic experiences for guests onboard this architecturally-bespoke ship cruising the Gulf of Tonkin.
We launch in the spring of 2023. Cruising is all about destinations, experiences, and memories. Our ambition is inspiring: to provide a spectacular experience based on elements of exclusivity, comfort, elegance, and style. Just like our chain of boutique hotels, Essence Yachts aims to fly the flag for our luxury hospitality brand at sea.
The five-deck steel craft is designed with over 50 elegant guestrooms and suites, making it the largest overnight ship to grace Halong Bay’s waters. But what makes it unique is a stunning selection of cutting-edge facilities on board.
