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 vessel, crew, food and beverages were all excellent. As a snorkeler the crew was very accommodating. I snorkeled a lot!! And it was so beautiful! 🙂
Steve
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)!
Debbie
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,
