An amazing week on Ilike!
It was a great trip, the diving conditions were not perfect for Raja Almost, but we still saw a lot, and the cruise director did her best to select dive spots where we would see the most different life. The staff were all super helpful, friendly, and great fun, which really added to the experience. The rental gear was good, and the boat was spacious, comfortable, and clean. The food was fantastic and varied, the sit down three course meal for dinner was a nice bit of luxury! The two land excursions were also fun.

Memorable trip on Ilike
I had an excellent trip on Ilike. Love all the staff who helped out with cleaning our gear after dives and handing them out before each dive. Excellent service. Food was so great that it’s hard not to gain weight. Choices of dive sites were lovely too. We managed to see a whole lot of animals.

A deeply impressive experience of what is without a doubt one of the best dive sites in the world
The cruise director Clement is an extremely experienced dive guide and has a lot of knowledge about marine life. The crew was fantastic with their service, help and additional comforts including massages and delicious food. The selection of dive sites is the best a diver can dream of and the journey along the islands is simply wonderful.

11 perfect nights from Raja Ampat to Ambon.
11 nights from Raja Ampat to Ambon including Missol and Banda islands, The nature both above and underwater was wonderful. Healthy reefs, massive schools of fishes, guides did good job spotting rare species. Because all the long crossings were done at night, we maximized our diving time and still got to rest. As usual in Indonesia, crew and dive guides do their best to accommodate every request and make everyone happy. Trip was perfectly completed with a visit to Banda Neira and a beach sunset on a sandbank. Fantastic boat and route.

A trip I will never forget in my life
As a guest who used to work on a liveaboard before. I have to say Ilike has done a very good job. Although there were some unexpected things happened during the trip, the cruise director handled it very well. If you travel on a liveaboard, it is important to be flexible and just enjoy every moment you have on the boat. I had a wonderful time with the crew members and guests on the boat. It will always be a beautiful memory in my heart. Thank you to all the crew members who made this trip happen.

A unique and memorable experience on a more traditional wooden sailboat
Alot of varied dive sites with differing topography. More of a traditional sailing feel without all those unneeded luxuries. Crew was very nice. Amazing scenery along the way. As a more novice diver, the team accommodated my skill level well.

Great boat, Great diving
My 2nd cruise in Raja Ampat. Glad to see some of the dive sites are still supreme! Ilike is overall a very good boat. The price is not cheap for us but considering the number of dives, it's actually good value. Cabin are communal areas are comfortable, although hygiene department is a bit of a let down. I love the Indonesian crew. But the boat is clearly more catered towards European guests, and has a healthy dose of sophistication. Although I cannot say I love this vibe, but at least I understand this is the mater of personal taste. The cruise directors and two out of three divemasters are European, they did a fantastic job in organizing everything from divings, activities to other daily matters.

Beautiful boat and best crew ever
The friendly and highly capable crew is what makes the stay on this beautiful wooden Penisi boat special! I love the way everything was taken care of, be it offering great food for everyone at all times, arranging diving and making sure all we had to do was hopping onto the tender as well as providing a perfect back-up plan when the weather didn't make it easy for us. Cabins are comfortable and the suites very spacious. Please note that it is a wooden boat, meaning it can be a bit noisy with all the creaking and cracking during sailing. But that is part of the experience and didn't affect our sleep at all. The common areas are spacious and well taken care of and food was tasty with plenty of choice of local and international dishes including nice options for guests with special dietry requirements. Best part for me was making the joint decision amongst crew dircetor and our group to do some exploration dive where it seemed interesting and we had exceptional dives.

Absolutely booking with them again!
It was amazing! There was adequate breaks between dives to ogle photos from the prior dive, eat/drink, take a nap, or just soak in the amazing scenery. Very well organized and communication was amazing, even when it was a developing situation due to someone getting DCS. They took care of us like family. I rented all my gear, except mask and they were all amazingly taken care of and when the mouth piece wearing out they replaced it before I even had a chance to mention it.

Organization and communication. Dive briefs and communication of expectations for the dive. Personalities of the crew: there were always little jokes and cheers and water being advertised as more than just water to hydrate us: “wine before your dive?” Haha.
