We were a group of 10 and had a pretty good time on the Starlight. The boat itself was comfy, rooms were nice, meals tasted good, and we had a blast singing karaoke with other travelers. Trying out tai chi was a highlight, and the crew was super friendly. The bay is beautiful, just a bit crowded in spots. The cave and Titop Island were packed with other groups, which wasn’t ideal. Morning kayaking was peaceful though! If you do a longer cruise, maybe you get to see quieter areas.

I went with my boyfriend for our anniversary and honestly – the whole thing felt kinda magical. We lucked out with perfect weather, like, not too hot, not sticky. The boat itself was suuuper clean (I’m picky about bathrooms and it passed my test, lol). Our room had this tiny balcony – I snuck out at sunrise with my coffee and just sat there, barely anyone else up. The food was just WOW, so much seafood, and they remembered I can’t eat shellfish. The staff kept coming by to check if we were okay but not in a weird way. We did the kayaking and got totally splashed by my bf being ridiculous. Karaoke night was a riot, especially when a German couple did ABBA. Only thing is, the wifi was weak, so don’t plan on posting live stories. 10/10 would go again, but bring snacks if you get hungry late – kitchen’s closed after dinner.

I booked with my two sisters and our mum, and it was pretty fun! Really packed schedule tho – felt like we were rushing from one thing to the next. The cave tour was the best part for me, sooo cool with the lights inside. The staff were friendly, sometimes a bit hard to understand but they always tried. Food was tasty but maybe too much rice? Also, there was a wait for the kayaks so we had to sit around for like 30 min. Not a huge deal, but just FYI if you’re impatient. Would recommend for families.
