Thank you dive masters for showing us all the good stuff. Can’t be any better!! Simply amazing!! Thank you for the extra pillows and fresh towels. Wow! Outstanding! Extra thank you’s to the chef and service… Amazing. Go Natty and Alex and Rocky. Fabulous! Amazing! Thank you for all the extras and personalized service. Everyone together, made this experience more than memorable. Thank you. Our 12-day dive trip on the Arenui in Raja Ampat was absolutely exceptional! From start to finish, we were surrounded by graciousness, kindness, and superb service that set this experience apart from any other. The crew was outstanding, professional and incredibly attentive from sun up to sun down. The dive masters and the rest of the crew made sure each dive was memorable. We also enjoyed all the land excursions. Arenui is more than a dive boat… it’s an unforgettable experience defined by world-class hospitality and heart

Top notch at everything. Will be hard to get on any other vessel. First off this boat is run from the top down w/ tone and professionalism set by Natalia and Alex. They’re incredible!! And the crew makes the hard work look effortless. They make us feel like family or old friends. Honestly, this boat sets a high bar. This crew, its cohesiveness, and leadership set by Alex and Natalia set the bar high and should be an industry standard. This boat feels like family and first class at the same time. I’d come back here trip after trip. Thank you!!!

Rooms are impeccable. Everyone is committed to excellence. We will be back - always the best measure!!

The boat itself was amazing. Beautiful cabins and plenty of space to relax without feeling crowded. Beautiful dive sites! You can tell that the cruise directors and divemasters know the sites well. So much food! Great selection all during the day. We loved the Soto Ayam! We had two birthdays and the cakes were beautiful and delicious! Natalia and Alex were phenomenal. So invested in their travelers' experiences. All crew was extremely attentive! Our travelers loved this trip. Well worth the long flights. Alex and Natalia have an attention to detail that is second to none. The crew made us feel like good friends. Can't wait to come back!

Attentive Staff. Very Comfortable, Slept Super Well. Loved The Diving and Dive Staff

We’ve done a lot of diving and Fahmi is the best divemaster we’ve ever encountered. All of the guys were great and boy do they have creature ID down. The guys went above and beyond to cater to my very picky diet and helped me figure out what to eat every day. They are the best of the best. There isn’t a single person on this boat that does not go above and beyond. We cannot express how truly wonderful they all are. Alex and Nat are wonderful and you should do everything in your power to keep them as long as possible. Arenui crew is the best of the best! Thank you guys for everything!

I am so happy and so sad to leave. Thank you from the bottom of my heart! Natty and Alex have become dear friends! They are the spirit of this boat after Komodo and Raja - they are parts of my core life memories. And Fahmi too! He is amazing!!

The boat is the best! The diving was truly mind-blowing. Best service ever, awesome!

Love the boat and detail. Best liveaboard food I’ve had and best diving I’ve had in years. Comparable to what I saw 20 yrs ago in Borneo! Couldn’t ask for a better crew. Fantastic trip! Entire staff were so friendly and helpful. Pretty much the only liveaboard I’ll travel on if the destination is available, thanks for a wonderful trip!!

All food was so amazing. Both the crew and diving were all great. 2nd time on this boat both times have been amazing and always recommend to all my dive friends

Tizann was excellent!

Diving was spectacular and Jackie rocked! Tenders were comfy and getting in and out was easy. Such good food. Amazing chef and crew in the kitchen! Everyone was super helpful and wonderfully kind

Everything was amazing and we had high expectations. Natty and Alex went above and beyond to hunt down a camera bag that got stuck in Jakarta and somehow arranged for it to appear from another boat. Way above expectation. This is a great crew and well run ship - thanks 5 stars. Best food we have ever had. We aren't sure how the chefs did it

Awesome! Will definitely get myself on this boat again. Friendly, knowledgeable, jovial, competent, fun. Great crew! Food was amazing. Compliments to the entire team

Love the diving! Very easy getting on and off the tenders. Love the various "hang out" spaces on the boat. Love the A/C throughout the boat as well. All personnel were professional, courteous, friendly, fun and very helpful. Dive guides Tien, Fami and Jacky were awesome and great guides. Nat and Alex were fantastic!! Chef Mario and team were amazing! The best food on any liveaboard! Thank you! Again - the food was amazing!! Thanks Mario!

Great how everyone works together. The kitchen was ultra accommodating to my dietary issues

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!

Fantastic charter! Great cabins and food service, Mario and crew are great, the diving was fantastic and even the offie crew were great!

Everyone was awesome, excellent trip!

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!!

Trip of a life time! Loved every second of it, the staff was incredible and diving was awesome!

Thanks to all, especially Arief! All the best wishes

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!
