Our first liveaboard and we are already planning to come back!

Mermaid II was in impeccable condition and clearly exceptionally well maintained. The crew seemed to work constantly—and always cheerfully—to keep everything pristine. The staff-to-diver ratio was an incredible 1:1, and the level of service and attention was unlike anything I’ve experienced on a liveaboard. The diving operation was the safest I have ever seen. Two crew members assisted each diver getting on and off the dinghies, safety checks were thorough, and additional guides were provided whenever needed. The dive limits were appropriately conservative, but also flexible: divers who used their air efficiently could buddy up with another group rather than having their dives shortened because someone else was low on air. I really appreciated that approach. Bram was a fantastic guide who happily indulged our love of underwater photography and video, giving us time when we found nudibranchs or encountered octopuses, sea snakes, and other fascinating marine life. He has an exceptional eye for spotting tiny or well-camouflaged treasures, including pygmy seahorses, harlequin ghost pipefish, and leaf-sheep nudibranchs. His skill and patience added enormously to our experience. The food was healthy, varied, and delicious. Allergies and dietary restrictions were carefully accommodated, and the gluten-free options were especially tasty—thank you, Bruno, Alan, Desi, and Ilham! Fresh fruit was always available, and we had fresh, clean vegetables every day, along with plenty of choices at every meal. Luca and Elsa set such a positive tone. Everyone was treated with respect, patience, and good humor. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun, yet the crew’s efficiency and teamwork kept everything running smoothly and on schedule. I don’t think I ever got into or out of my gear without someone immediately offering cheerful assistance. We were all incredibly impressed by the way the entire crew worked together. Mermaid II delivers an exceptional combination of safety, professionalism, warmth, and fun. I would enthusiastically recommend this boat and crew.

Whale sharks, manta rays, and Komodo dragons and a great crew

We had an amazing time on the Mermaid II. The crew were friendly and helpful, the dive guides were fantastic, and we had some dives that will be lifetime memories. We had 4 whale sharks that circled us for an hour at Saleh Bay, another hour with manta rays at Manta Alley, and saw 9 Komodo dragons on our walk in the park. The rooms and food were modest, but appropriate for the price.
