It couldn't be better.

Very happy with the experience at the Akomo Isseki. Out of ten. The rooms are comfortable and with enough space, you have a fan in each bed and the upper window that sometimes has to be closed (the crew takes care of it) if it rains. sometimes it's hot, it's not a surprise in Raja Ampat, but you can also sleep in the cool on the deck. Great food, Jois and Chandra, kept us well fed with tasty food and snacks between dives and were mindful of food intolerances. The boat overall excellent, simple but lovely, the rest deck to be between dives and meals is enough and very comfortable the seats. There are 2 shower-toilets that are shared but they are more than enough. The crew is also always on the lookout, they are in charge of preparing everything for the dive and always with everything under control (thanks Mathen, Ali, Andarías and Ryan, good job).The dive guides, Alex and Sardin, perfect, knew what they were doing, knew the dive sites and were aware of finding what each one liked. If you're looking for luxuries, it's not your place. If you don't care about that and want to dive and enjoy yourself, then why pay hundreds of euros more? Excellent value for money. About diving, there were spectacular places, we saw many species of fish, sharks, corals... And 4 manta rays together in the same spot, it was magical. We did some diving with strong currents, very fun but you have to be prepared (although the guides help you in everything), in total we did 27 dives although if we had not had to help another boat we would have done 29, top. The diving equipment was fine.There are a couple of kayaks that you can. Use when anchored. We also went ashore 4 times, in the love lagoon, pyanemo, in Fam (we did a brutal night there) and finally a farewell dinner on a desert island. We will repeat with Akomo Isseki and Liquid Adventures (very good previous communication)

This trip truly was an extraordinary adventure, and we highly recommend the Akomo Isseki for anyone looking to explore the wonders of Komodo in the best possible way.

We recently embarked on a once-in-a-lifetime trip aboard the Akomo Isseki dive liveaboard to Komodo, and it exceeded all our expectations. Our family group, including two teenagers, had an unforgettable experience, thanks in large part to our amazing dive guide, Alex. His extensive experience and attentive care ensured that everyone felt safe and comfortable, even in the most challenging dives. The diving in Komodo was among the best we've ever done, easily on par with Raja Ampat. The vibrant marine life and stunning underwater landscapes were truly breathtaking. The boat crew was extremely experienced and professional, keeping us safe even with high wind and rough seas. The food on board was fantastic, with a variety of delicious options that satisfied everyone in our group. The atmosphere was always lively and welcoming, making it easy to relax and enjoy every moment. The boat itself is ‘basic’ in its amenities, with fan cooled rooms and shared bathrooms, but kept in pristine shape and is extremely comfortable with lovely shared spaces (great sun deck & dining area) so that we didn’t miss any luxuries at all. We would love to come back to make it a twice in a life time adventure 😃

It was my favourite liveaboard ever, nice boat, good guides, very helpful and friendly crew. I will never forgeth this trip!

Highlight for me was to see mantas! The short trips in the afternoons to islands and viewpoints where really fun. Corals and fish are just incredible there!
