Customer review from Liveaboard.com
“Would recommend for first timers! Great food, great people. I had a blast on the trip. This was my first liveaboard and i have to say it'll definitely not be my last. The good: 1) food was great considering how small the kitchen was. Asian and western options and all were delicious. I was stuffed! 2) cabins were cleaner than expected. Read past reviews on cockroaches but i didnt see any throughout my trip. Another diver found one in the common bathroom but thats about it. I did find mosquitos in my room on the first day tho. But after spraying citronella around the room, i didnt see them anymore. 3) service crew (those handling the tanks) were very helpful 4) the main dive guide, Golf, was very communicative and helpful. Itinerary was well planned. 5) rooms are nicely renovated with airconditioning and ensuite bathroom for every room. The bad: 1)Common bathroom was really really stinky given how many people (crews and sometimes divers) were using it. And its at the entrance of the common walkway. Sometimes the smell would travel up to the dining area via the gap for the stairs. It was better after they cleaned it but probably need to be cleaned more often given its along a common walkway😅 2) there was no entertainment, apart from music. i would suggest bringing board games or something. I had fun chatting about everything with fellow divers, but would have been fun with games. Would be nice if they added beanbags on the roof deck to chill. Currently its empty so theres nothing to lounge on. And most of us end up spending most of our time on the dining area as it was the only place that had seats. 3) beds werent very comfortable for my back. They were very hard and stiff mattresses. (I was in a double bunk). Pillow and blanket were fine. 4) they give only 1 bath towel throughout the trip. So the same one you dry yourself with when u get up from the sea is the same one you shower with lol. Would be nice to have 2. 5) toilet flushes were a problem in most cabins- they didnt work. Mine ultimately did when i lifted up the top and pressed the button inside, rather than the actual button. All in all, i would recommend it if its your first time trying a liveaboard or if you're not too fussed. I was lucky to have the entire room to myself as most others felt like the cabins were too small to share.”
Recommended for: The food was great. Fellow divers on board were really fun. Boat was cleaner than expected.
