Indochina Sails boats are all built of wood in Vietnam, by using the local materials and the handiwork of proficient craftsmen, artists, and shipbuilders. Usually known as aromatic wood, or “go huong,” it is extremely a beautifully grained and highly durable wood which will certainly add to the warm & rich feature of the junks.
In general, the Indo 1 and Indo 2 are both identical boats and were launched in 2007 with 15 cabins (Superior and Deluxe Cabins) on each boat. The newest boat – the Indo 3 (released in late 2008) – is commonly famed for ceramic artworks handcrafted in Bat Trang (said to be the home of the nation’s most skilful ceramic craftsmen). They are all reportedly decorated with silk from Van Phuc – one reputable “Silk Village.” Furthermore, the Valentine (introduced in late 2007) is also ideal for honeymoon-enjoying couples who’re in need of a more intimate and unique experience with a full-service vessel of all ritzy facilities and amenities.

With a pleasant ambience, wonderful views, and attentive staff, guests are quite able to lead eyes toward bountiful international breakfast buffets, sit-down dishes for lunches, and formal dinners with enticing fusion cuisine. Particularly, special BBQ dinners are additionally well-served on the Sundeck at the weekends, or even based on the request from any group of family members, friends, company, etc.
