Thank you for this life altering experience. Whoever does the selection of staff is to be commended as each and every member of the crew make the trip. Nice work on maintaining the wood of the boat. The food exceeded all my expectations!

The Arenui rocks on all dimensions! The crew works well together and is a five-star service. I leave with so many wonderful memories. I boarded the Arenui as an inexperienced diver and now I'm safer, better and a more relaxed diver.

We love Arenui trips - this is our third time cruising with them. The crew are amazing. The food is always well prepared and plentiful. Dives sites were most excellent on this cruise!

We loved that our wetsuits were waiting before each dive in our personalized space. We are amazed by the gourmet food. The chef and crew are outstanding. Amazing crew! DMs checked to see the conditions were good. Kai’s knowledge about securing a bagan with whale sharks was exceptional. Guido and Vicki will be great cruise directors! Best dive itinerary ever! Furnishings, positive and caring attitude of the crew and level of service exceeds all other liveaboards!

Nothing compares to the Arenui – diving, food, atmosphere, simply wonderful! Best diving we’ve done since 2004. Would love to book again for Greater Raja Ampat.

Arenui deserves her name - a BOUTIQUE liveaboard! Chefs were amazing; above and beyond for my gluten free meals. The excursions to Tomolol the view point and to the cave were fantastic. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire trip!

Best Liveaboard I have been on yet! I love the cultural and authentic/natural elements of its structure. As a vegetarian, I am beyond grateful to the kitchen crew for amazing selections healthy options and wonderful flavors. Thank you so much! I know extra effort was involved on my behalf. Amazing crew! Such personable, pleasant Directors so thoughtful and attentive. The service by the stewards was exceptional. And my massage was bliss and professional. - The destination, dive sites and tenders were all excellent. The Tender drivers and dive guides made me feel safe and cared for while diving. My dive guide Harry was patient and provided thoughtful, individualized guidance. Thank you for such a special holiday aboard this beautiful vessel with such talented, hospitable and caring crew. Don’t change a thing! P.S. I’d love to be welcomed aboard again in the future. You never know!

Excellent boat, history & wood extra plus. Food quantity was excellent, food quality, food choice and beverages were also great. All good! No issues or complaint! 😊 The crew are very professional, knowledgeable and helpful. Can’t think of anything that could be improved. Much appreciated to Mario & Kadek!

Shinta is very spacious and comfortable to lounge around between dives. Food varieties are good.  Mario & Kadek provided very good service and they are always there to service us on board. Alejandro & Saoirse have made the whole trip remarkable. Ferry (dive master) and the tender drivers provided five star service during the whole diving experience. The level of service is the best I have experienced for the 15 years of diving I have done. The diving was excellent; a good selection of dive sites.

The bed linens were very comfortable and the sky lounge/restaurant area was a great place to hang out. As a pescevegeterian there was always something tasty on the buffet menu and I really enjoyed the selection on the vegetarian menu for dinner. The crew were fantastic.

Hands down the best food I have had on a liveaboard! Hats off to chefs & his team. Absolutely everyone were drivers for service with a smile and totally can do. However, I must highlight Fahmi and his infectious personality and leadership underwater, probably my fave dive master! I’d also like to highlight Mario and Kadek, true masters of service! The diving was excellent. Even with the storm the crew was able to provide us with variety. The dives were full of life! Overall what an incredible experience! The diving was spectacular! It was so nice to come ‘home’ to the Arenui after each dive, to a smiling team who was always there for us. A trip that will always be remembered! Thank you crew, thank you Arenui!’

Amazing food & beverage. Kudos to the chef and his amazing team! Best food on a liveaboard by far (more than 10 liveaboards for me). Amazing staff, which made for this amazing experience. Fahmi has been my favorite guide of all time (500 dives). His awesome light-hearted personality and underwater expertise very much appreciated. Mario & Kadek were very welcoming and ‘can-do’. Very much appreciated. I love the healthy coral & the variety of diving. Again a big thanks to Fahmi & Saoirse & Alex for the choices, the enthusiasm and the safety.

The boat was excellent. We really liked the bidet hose! Oh yes, the facilities were great. Beds were comfortable and our room (Ganesh was surprisingly spacious). Food  was excellent; I especially like the vegetarian variety.’   The crew was excellent. Alex and Saoirse really made the trip for me. Herry was a fantastic dive master and patient with our slow pace and meticulous hunting. Don’t change anything! We really like the dive sites and variety of life to see. My preference is for reef invertebrates and this trip had them. What can I say? This is our second trip with the Arenui and we’ve just requested our third. Not coming with a group is always a bit of a gamble but the staff and guests were awesome (again)!

The boat, the crew and the food choices were all excellent. Anti-chovy & Melissa's Garden super sites! But loved it all – Muck, Mantas, and More! Everyone and everything was really outstanding! You have an attention to detail not many service businesses can achieve! You have created and maintained (for 10 years!) a level of quality and service rarely seen, all while maintaining a very high morale level. Kudos to you and to everyone who makes it possible.

The trip exceeded expectations. Crew was very accommodating. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. This experience will be hard to top. Every detail was considered on board & on the water. The boat, diving, the crew and the food choice was all excellent. Ferry gave me the confidence I needed to have an unforgettable dive experience. Will miss Arenui!

As a testimonial to the service and crew on the Arenui, my wife did not want to do another liveaboard! But she ended up having a great time, thanks to the cruise directors and crew, who attended to all our needs in the most professional and friendly manner. The boat, crew, diving and food, all excellent,
