Really great ship, and crew. Very impressed by the staff and food as well. The night dive (just one) was great. Would be cool if they did more. Ksenia from Dive and Cruise provides excellent customer service. Strongly recommend.

Extraordinary voyage, enchanting views, considerate crew, dainty treats. Wish I could extend my permanent vacation here. Just with, next time, more whale sharks, more dives(esp. Night dives), more parties, more hotties, more time! Please! Best wishes with all my sincere gratitude. Farewell, just 4 now.

We enjoyed our trip with scubaspa very much. They really took care of us. Thanks a bunch to you for taking care of our needs prior to the trip. 1. We loved the honey moon spa treatment you got us. 2. The cabin was great in the middle of the boat. We had some rocky rides. My motion sickness wasn't so bad due to the location.

我和我男朋友作为Dive and Cruise的员工,在15年12月选择前往Scubaspa进行我们每年一期的“蜜月之旅”,整个旅程非常完美,选择潜水员套餐的可以用2潜换1个小时的Spa,而1次Spa可以换2次潜水,早上9点前的所有茶品和咖啡都是免费的,而且全程高氧免费。船上提供了WIFI,我们住的是Manta套房,房间里有一个3米长的海景窗,相当的浪漫,而且船上的Spa非常不错,船上的餐食是西餐和马代菜肴结合,精致好看!船员们都非常友好,真心推荐!这真的是我船宿那么多年以来碰上的最好的一艘船了。

Недавно вернулись из круиза в июле, понравилось буквально все: на неделю выпадаешь из реальности и погружаешься в самое настоящее "Райское наслаждение". Из плюсов хотелось бы отметить каюты: они действительно немаленькие и все с окошками, пусть даже небольшими. У нас был номер на нижнем этаже палубы: ночью было слышно, как плещется вода о борт, очень успокаивающий звук. Питание. Потрясающие блюда совершенно разных кухонь: японские суши, итальянские спагетти и тирамису, каждый день тарелка со свежими фруктами и "Банановое дерево" и места встречи на ежедневный дайвинг. Единственное, что было не очень удобно: в стоимость включены только утренние напитки и еда, за кофе, чай и соки после 11:00 приходилось платить из своего кармана. Иногда делали что-то вроде шведского стола, иногда - персонально для каждого сервировали стол. Дайвинг был просто невероятным: увидели все, что только можно было. И китовую акулу, и скатов, и мант, и.... И самым запоминающимся среди всего было ночное погружение с акулами: такое просто не забывается. Они повсюду, пытаются потереться об тебя, ложатся чуть ли не на колени и кружат громадными стаями рядом. Кораллы по большей части были мертвыми, но животный мир просто потрясающий. Мы ездили в "несезон", поэтому на всей яхте из постояльцев было 8 человек включая нас. И порядка 20 человек команды: из них два дайв-инструктора - Симба и Марио. С нами занимался Марио: как преподаватель он просто замечательный. Даже прошли дополнительно курс Advanced, хотя до этого был только Open Water: погружения на 30 метров к затонувшим кораблям, черепахи и... Это просто надо видеть. Была небольшая проблема с доньей, и буквально день или два, пока не приехали ремонтники, мы ныряли с динги, что было не очень удобно, но в остальном все понравилось. Яхта выглядит как самое настоящее произведение искусства и полностью соответствует фотографиям. Когда выбирали тур, думали, мол, да, тут подфотошопят, там подправят - а оказалось, что саму яхту на воду спустили меньше, чем год назад, и выглядит она действительно здорово. И джакузи на верхней палубе, и что-то вроде маленькой беседки под открытым небом, и кресла-мешки с шезлонгами, чтобы позагорать днем, и ночной показ фильма с проектором, который устраивал Крис, и все остальное. =) Маленьким минусом можно считать тот факт, что нас забыли предупредить о том, что стоимость PADI Advanced нам называлась без учета налогов: и выяснилось это только в последний день круиза, когда нам предоставляли счет на оплату. В остальном... Просто чудесное путешествие. И хотелось бы еще не раз туда вернуться. Наверное, с детьми было бы не очень комфортно: достаточно много крутых лестниц, подъемов и отсутствие ограждений, которые могли бы помешать залезать везде и всюду, но мы были без детей, так что все было в порядке. =) Также очень понравилось спа: возможно, массажисты не особо заморачивались на тему названий и техник массажа - по крайней мере я дважды ходила на Ayurvedic massage и у одного и того же массажиста как-то получилось, что эти два массажа вышли совершенно разными, но... Но от того ничуть не менее приятными. Из комнат, где делали массаж, был прямой выход на балкон у края палубы: ты лежишь, отдыхаешь и слушаешь шум волн. Полное расслабление. Отдельно хотелось бы отметить тот факт, что можно было брать в аренду GoPro и снимать под водой. Для тех, кто не взял с собой подводной камеры (даже и для тех, кто взял, т.к. наша камера, например, могла "нырять" только до 18 метров) была прекрасная возможность заснять все глубины и себя в них. В общем, все путешествие я бы охарактеризовала одним словом: сказочное. Всего семь дней, но чувствуешь себя полностью отдохнувшим и набравшимся новых впечатлений.

Good points : 1. the cruise was amazing !!! 2.perfect food even fresh fish, diner on desert island, lot of difference taste proposed alway perfect and most of the meal is serve on table pretty amazing and ultimate luxury. I even have to restrain myself because so many goods things 3. the dive site I was where fabulous !! we saw all the best animal including the whales shark and mantas that was so amazing !!1 and one night dive with under of nurse shark memory for a life !!! 4. bedroom, all the boat Jacuzzi were just perfect 5. massage were ok 6. nice crew member.. nice crew members. Bad point : 1. the beginning was little bit difficult withe the dive master he do not allow me to go with the diver on 5 occasion that is quite a lot. At the beginning because he do not my level … (indeed I should present my self has a free diver) then because the site was too deep. So not a pleasant start. Even if I don’t like that it always happened at the beginning on each of my lovebird so bad point but quite common. 2. when dive area wax to deep for snorkeling they do not offer alternative site for snorkeler even if they have too boat and a large crew 3. massage team was ok but not that helpful 4. we where only 8 and the crew didn’t try to help to mix us (everyone at his own table for the meal ….)
