Unbelievable experience.
The diving was great. The service from the crew was fabulous. Every time we came back to the boat, we received a huge welcome. The staterooms are like a fancy hotel. Food and food variety was very good. Once in a life time trip and we want to go back.

An amazing dive boat and crew in the best waters.
Wholeheartedly give it an A+ in every dimension that matters. I don’t know how it could be better - maybe a higher quality wine selection?
- Recommended for
- The diving itself. Variety and sheer volume of corals and sea life in Raja Ampat are simply second to none. Amazing staff of 22, vs 19 guests. Crom top (cruise directors )to bottom (engineers, cleaning staff, cooks, tender drivers) uniformly attentive, respectful, helpful and friendly. Best, tightly coordinated staff we’ve ever encountered on a dozen + liveaboards.. The boat: spcious, comfortable, superbly laid out and equipped. Not as “romantic” as the more traditional schooner hull, but purpose-built with superior layout of dive deck, public spaces, camera room, comfortable and well designed cabins. Snag an upper deck cabiin if you can: spacious, with balcony and floor to ceiling picture windows..

Liveaboard of superlatives
The whole trip was a single highlight - from the pick-up at the hotel to the unforgettable diving experiences (Raja Ampat is certainly one of the best diving areas in the world) to gourmet cuisine (including catering to every special request) and many unexpected individual services (e.g. machine washing and drying of the wetsuits we brought along) all great, luxury, 100% recommendation

This is what liveaboards should strive to be.
Wow. What an amazing trip. This boat is top of the line and I don’t just mean the facilities. Every piece of this trip was carefully curated by the team to be intentional, engaging, inspiring and enjoyable. The beds are incredibly comfortable, staterooms are clean and spacious with lots of storage. Service was not just exceptional, it was anticipatory: dry towels and tea waiting after dives, team taking care of all your gear including wetsuits, breakfast to order…you name it. Amanda and Jay were out of this world in providing amazing service while also balancing the importance of reef respect and conservation. Anto & Andy were like family by the end of the trip- you can tell they truly love taking care of people. There are too many good things to say about the rest of the team so all I can say is THANK YOU! I truly hope to see you all again.

A luxurious, friendly and relaxed liveaboard - the best we have even been on
Gaia Love is without doubt the best liveaboard we have even been on - and we have been on many. We loved that we were treated as responsible adults - eg no wake-up calls; no 'supervision' of air underwater; no silly events; staff treated us with incredible respect and courtesy yet always it felt like we were not just another passenger
- Recommended for
- Quality and responsiveness of staff. Dive operation from top to bottom. Quality of the cabins.
