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!!!

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!

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!!
