Just a very enjoyable holiday in luxury style. The Arenui has taken liveaboard diving to a totally new level of comfort, eating and diving.

Excellent holiday, cannot forget it. Best ever.

The food was amazing and the crew are always very happy which is very nice. Diving was brilliant, maybe too much muck diving. Love it! Gibo is an amazing Chef.

I was sitting on the bottom enjoying the view as a manta ray 6ft (wide) pane 2ftabove my head when the dive master went frantically calling us to the other side of reef shoulder. It was the mola mola. Food was outstanding.

Cette croisiére a vraiment été parfait á tout point de vue. Plongées superbes, équipe géniale vraiment rien á dire. Je remorcie Debbie, Jerry et tout le reste de l’équipáge pour ce voyage merveilleux. Il faut dire qu’ á 14 ans c’est le réve.

Ciao Luigi, l’indimenticabile vacanza trascorsa a bordo di “ARENUI” dal 28 dicembre 2009 all’8 gennaio 2010 (Molucche-Papua, Indonesia) mi ha indotto a volere tornare con Dario sul tuo veliero il prossimo agosto (Bali, Komodo dal 13 al 24). Si uniranno a noi anche le nostre figlie Elena, Paola e Luca (il ragazzo di Paola) e ti assicuro che non vedono l’ora di provare questa meravigliosa esperienza. Perché tornare su “ARENUI”? Prima di tutto per gli stessi motivi di apprezzamento positivi, condivisi totalmente, di coloro che mi hanno preceduto nello scrivere in questo libro degli ospiti, ma anche grazie a te Luigi. Vorrei usare una similitudine per potermi meglio spiegare: ARENUI è un delizioso Cocktail creato da un grande barman professionista chiamato Luigi Russo il quale, con sapiente maestria, è riuscito ad amalgamare nelle giuste dosi gli ingredienti “base” quali: PROFESSIONALITA’, QUALITA’, ATTENZIONE, CORTESIA, DISPONIBILITA’. Ed è proprio con il perfetto equilibrio di tali ingredienti base che Luigi ha fatto di ARENUI il “COCKTAIL VINCENTE !” Con affetto Lisetta e Dario

We went in February with Arenui to Raja Amput and were very happy. The very best boat we have ever been on. We booked straight away for an April cruise so this report is a second experience. The experience was superb as before and we booked again for Bali-Komodo-Bali next October. The dive guides are all excellent but Toby is a class apart. He found 4 mm nudis, a rhinopia and the rarest of the rare of frogfishes, the psychedelic frogfish. What was appreciated was that we were not only diving but made several landtours as well with transport and guides on the ready. The boat itself gives another meaning to the word “space” on liveaboards. Big cabins, big showers, big lounge, sundeck, big, big, big. There were 30 crew members for 12 guests! Service from A to Z. Although the cruise is fully and professionally programmed, there is enough flexibility to feel comfortable at any moment. Enthusiasm of the cruise director Jerry overflows and contaminates his staff. Briefing tables are works of art. UW Photography Comments: Each dive was excellent.

This was a tour with lots to see and done nicely. But best, it was done with a lot of heart! Thanks.
