Our slogan, “the Boutique Liveaboard”, expresses our vision of providing the highest quality in everything we do – from diving to dining, from our leisure activities to our exquisite accommodations – and, above all, providing outstanding service at all times to our guests.
As an example of this philosophy, we offer our guests the choice of both comfortable indoor and outdoor areas for relaxing and dining. During meals, there is always an extensive selection of dishes and a tantalizing list of fine wines. When resting in between dives, our guests have the possibility of indulging themselves in a relaxing massage on deck.
A great week! Experiencing a new part of Indonesia (and the world) from the Arenui was incredible—the remoteness, the beauty, the people, and the diversity, an the two land tours were great! Everyone onboard worked together as a team and all of them seemed to really enjoy their job. Can’t wait for the next trip on the Arenui!
Thank you for a memorable trip!
We truly appreciate all your hard work—from the delicious food and clean staterooms to the excellent dive guiding, boat driving, and taking care of our equipment. And to the BEST cruise director on any liveaboard—thank you!
We love you all and hope to see you again soon!
This is a truly lovely ship with an exceptional crew, delicious food, amazing dive sites, and a great welcoming feel. It’s clear that everyone works crazy hard.
The artistic design of the whole ship is stunning, and the food is truly amazing—so much creativity and absolutely delicious!
Thank you for a great week!
The cook staff were very accommodating with any requests, and I really liked the cruise director—he is top notch!
Repeat customer, and I have no complaints—service was outstanding. The crew were especially responsive to extra support needs, going above and beyond their duties to attend to every detail. Rooms were always clean and tidy.
Special kudos to the cruise directors, divemasters, and crew for all their attention and support. Loved the boat!! The food was outstanding with great variety and choice
The boat was just as I remembered it from 6 years ago. The staff of Arenui runs like a well-oiled operation—always helpful, cheerful, and full of positive energy. The diving was even better than expected, and the food and service were the best I’ve experienced at any dive resort
The ship is beautiful, the cabins are pretty and comfy, and the food was fantastic—beautifully presented. Arief was the highlight of the trip! Natalia and Alex were awesome, and Fred took great care of us underwater. I loved the diving—so easy, and I didn’t have to lift a finger. What service! This trip was on the higher end of my budget, but absolutely worth it. I truly hope I can come again sometime!
Great crew—everyone really took the time to get to know me. There was a great variety of food offerings from start to finish.
This was my first trip to Indonesia, and my expectations were high and the destinations were beautiful!
Beautiful boat, and the food was beyond amazing! The crew went above and beyond to assist every guest. Tian was a wonderful guide, and being in a group with similar diving skills really maximized our enjoyment of the dives. All the information provided prior to the trip regarding travel logistics was extremely helpful. Thank you!! What a wonderful experience!!
Every single crew member had our safety and happiness in mind. Everything ran like clockwork, and this holiday far exceeded my expectations!
The boat accommodated our every need—it’s well laid out and provides every comfort. Everyone—and I mean everyone—was friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful in every way possible.
Table service and the stewards’ help with dive clothing were truly over the top. Absolutely excellent service in every area, in every way. The diving was spectacular! The briefings were perfect, the dive masters were excellent, and the boat tenders were incredible—no complaints at all. The chef and crew delivered an incredible menu with a wide variety of perfectly cooked meals. We really enjoyed the originality and deliciousness of every dish!
Loved every minute! Looking forward to the next trip—the crew were all fantastic, and the food had a wonderful variety!
Enjoyed the all-wood boat—stable and smooth riding. Great service with lots of help from a fun crew who are enthusiastic about their jobs. The farewell party was a blast!
The diving was everything we hoped for—and more
A wonderful, well-built boat. All the crew were incredibly friendly and helpful. I did all the dives—an amazing experience, just as promised and even better! Amazing soups, excellent variety and flavor, well done!
