This was a pleasant surprise. Everything was better than I expected. I am a better diver and it is all because of the trip. I am a girlie girl and loved it.

We loved our vacation with the Arenui crew. Thank you.
Sandy
I loved the accommodation offered for all ages and diving abilities. Our dive master Wawan was so patient with my diving “issues” and raised my confidence immeasurably. I was fearful before joining the Arenui, worried that I wasn’t experienced enough for this 12 day trip. The Cruise Director heard my concerns and paired my family with a dive master who helped me in all areas of concern. By the third day my confidence (and skills) improved tremendously. By the last day I feel ready and excited to go on to Sipidan and Raja Ampat. Thank you Arenui! The boat: Beautifully designed – functional and well thought out. The diving: Great variety – I am totally satisfied we saw everything the Komodo Island cruise offered. The crew: Everyone is exceptionally well trained. They carry out tasks with no prompting, even anticipating needs. It made me feel special when everyone knew my name! The food: I loved the Indonesian food mixed with other cuisines. Healthy and well prepared.

Jeanette
Another wonderful cruise – thanks so much!!! The boat: Loved the seeing the sails, so beautiful. Boat layout is well designed so we can enjoy visiting with each or find quiet areas when we want. The diving: I found the tenders easier to roll off of with the new design. The new tank holders allowed me to get a better balance while waiting for the final count. Thanks!! The crew: You have assembled a top notch crew. They are polite, friendly and will go out of their way to help you before you even ask. The food: Food is always tasty. I enjoyed the smells coming from the kitchen and taking peeks while they were preparing things.
