My husband and I celebrated our 10th anniversary here. The sunset party on the sundeck with music and drinks was magical. Mon Chéri truly knows how to create a romantic atmosphere.
We felt to have waited for the bust going around the old quarter to pick up guests.

From the speed boat transfer to the luxury suites, everything was "posh". The itinerary is well-paced, avoiding the crowds, which made us feel like we had the whole bay to ourselves.

Mon Chéri Cruises နဲ့ ခရီးသွားရတာ တကယ်ကို စိတ်အေးချမ်းဖို့ကောင်းပါတယ်။ Lan Ha Bay ရဲ့ လှပတဲ့ ရှုခင်းတွေကြားမှာ မနက်ခင်း Tai Chi လေ့ကျင့်ခန်းလုပ်ရတာဟာ စိတ်ကို ကြည်လင်လန်းဆန်းစေပါတယ်။ အခန်းတွေကလည်း အရမ်းကို သန့်ရှင်းပြီး ခေတ်မှီဆန်းသစ်တဲ့အတွက် စိတ်ကျေနပ်မှု အပြည့်အဝရရှိခဲ့ပါတယ်။
