Up to 36 guests (maximum 26 divers) can be accommodated in 17 guest cabins (5 Manta Suites, 3 Dolphin Suites, 1 Cowrie Suite, 8 Sea Star Cabins). One suite and one cabin can be converted into a triple to accommodate 3 guests. All cabins feature en-suite bathrooms and individually controlled air conditioning.

Diving from the Scubaspa Yang takes place from the accompanying dive dhoni, which carries all the necessary equipment, including air compressors, a nitrox filling station, rinse tanks, and dive equipment storage.

Trip of a lifetime - didn't want to leave (Scubaspa Ying/ Yin)
To be clear, we were on Scubaspa Ying (Yin?). The only reason I don't mention diving specifically in the top 3 is that the staff can't really control that lol, but diving was fabulous, extremely safe, with small groups each with its own divemaster (our divemaster, Akki was fabulous but all DMs were helpful skilled, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humour). Equipment and dive boat well maintained.

Great Experience!
Diving/Snorkeling - it was great that we (a diver and a non-diver) could both do what we wanted, see so much of the Maldives and still spend time together! The spa was fantastic! The staff and food on Scubaspa Yang were spectacular. We would definitely travel with Scubaspa again!

A most wonderful vacation with 17 diverse dives in pure luxury
so many things about this trip were just perfect, and I wish I could do it at least once a year and for at least 2 weeks. The natural setting combined with this exquisite boat and the excellent staff was just amazing. Fellow divers reminded me that there are lots of other beautiful dive spots to discover and great options in terms of liveaboards and resorts, but I can't imagine any will live up to the combination of awesomeness that I experienced on the ScubaSpa Yang.

An unforgettable week
We spent our honeymoon on ScubaSpa Yang, and it was honestly perfect. The diving team, led by Victoria, was incredible - full of knowledge, care, and fun. Our guide Shaad was especially amazing: calm, supportive, and made every one of our 17 dives feel exciting and safe. Big thanks also to Mizze and Sharif for their ocean wisdom and great energy. And the Dhoni crew - Capi Suhail, Kawsar, and Hassan - navigated with ease to every dive site and kept everything with our gear smooth and easy. Onboard, Branden and his team made everything feel seamless and personal. Sajiv and Abey made the best drinks (plus the daily homemade ice cream!), Chef Abdullah wowed us with delicious global dishes, and Jim and Madu made every meal feel special. Hussain and Nazmul kept our room spotless and cozy the whole week. We loved starting the day with yoga with Lins, relaxing with massages from Ella, and heading off on fun island visits and water sports with Ahmed and Jamil. Everything was beautifully organized but never felt rushed. Thank you, ScubaSpa family, for the most unforgettable week! we definitely come back❤️

Exceeded all Expectations
Let’s start with… I booked this liveaboard as a solo traveler and I left the week with a new scuba family. Any and all expectations were exceeded on this trip. The staff, were always there to help you, serve you and anything you may need. The food is out of this world so good. The room is comfortable, has AC and is cleaned everyday. If you are looking to do a liveaboard, do not waste your time looking for a boat that isn’t this. This was a lifetime experience that I hope to do again as soon as possible. It was truly a dream come true!
