My second trip on the Arenui. On the first trip I didn’t have any expectations so was easily impressed by the beauty of the boat and the trip. I ran on the second trip with high expectations and was again amazed by the staff and attention to detail.

All of the crew members were absolutely top notch and all were very good at their respective jobs. They did everything possible to make us comfortable and feel at home. The diving was given excellent. Dive sites were great, and Ronald is a gem. An excellent spotter, diver and very personable. The tender drivers were also very helpful and always where they needed to be. Boat decoration is gorgeous. My compliments to the decorator!

Love Famhi’s (divemaster) love for diving. Appreciate all the time Jose and Kai spent with Simon (new diver) to assist him. Toastie and chicken soup, yum! This adventure exceeded our expectations. One of the great things about travel is finding all those good, loving people in the world. Those people are the Arenui staff.

As the only snorkeler on the trip, I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of beautiful reefs and walls. Always knew that the tender drivers knew where I was! The ENTIRE crew was simply awesome, always so helpful, pleasant, cheerful and polite! Looking forward to trying some of Chef Putu’s recipes! They all work so HARD!
