Prime Location
Situated beside Bai Chay Bridge, the hotel embraces the gentle curve of the coastal boulevard, offering a direct panoramic view of Ha Long Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
This prime location ensures seamless connectivity to Sun World Ha Long Park, Ha Long International Cruise Port, and Ha Long Golf Course, making it an ideal destination for both leisure and business travelers.
Design Inspiration
Inspired by the image of a diamond island, the design expresses strength, modernity, and sustainability. The architecture symbolizes both luxury and environmental harmony, aligning with IBSTAC’s philosophy of creating green, energy-efficient, and timeless structures.
Architectural Solutions
-
Bold Form: Two soaring towers with 360° panoramic views of the bay.
-
Diverse Functions: 5-star hotel, condotel, ballroom, restaurants, spa, and gym.
-
Smart Zoning: Separate entrances for hotel guests and condotel residents ensure privacy and convenience.
-
Premium Amenities: Infinity pool, sky bar, and 360° café offering world-class experiences.
The fan-shaped site offers excellent visual advantages. The design maximizes this by orienting all main rooms toward the bay, while relocating the technical core and elevators to the rear for spatial efficiency.
Traffic circulation is carefully planned to avoid overlap between service and guest movement. Separate access for the condotel area enhances privacy and maintains a peaceful atmosphere throughout the complex.
Crystal Island Quang Ninh 5-Star Hotel is envisioned not only as a luxury destination but also as an architectural statement — blending modern form, smart functionality, and natural beauty into a lasting symbol of Ha Long Bay.
Hotel Lobby Area
The floor plans are designed to prioritize important functions such as ballrooms, apartments, infinity pools, restaurants, etc. have the best and maximum view to the sea.
