Treat yourself and book this trip!
In the first week of May 2026, we were able to enjoy an eight-day cruise in the Maldives. Our expectations were high, but even those high expectations have been exceeded. What a fantastic experience! All the staff is superb; sweet, attentive, helpful, hospitable and always present in a pleasant way! They are all super good at what they do! The diving was fantastic and every time there was fantastic and varied food ready! With a lump in our throats we said goodbye to the boat and the crew! A trip that we have been looking forward to for a long time, but that we can look back on with great pleasure for much longer! Really a party!

Excellent Dive Trip
This trip was one of the best we have ever done; we have been diving with 2 teens for the last 6 years, twice a year. The crew is excellent in every way including taking care of our teens. The Yang is a superb boat, like a mini cruise ship, with all the comfort and a dive tender that is very spacious for max 20 divers. We definitely recommend this trip and will likely return ourselves. Thanks!

We'd Do It Again!
Great crew - very personable and caring. Dive sites were very good. Condition of boat was very good, and dining and spa facilities were first class. Felt like we were on a high class yacht at a much lower cost and with very amiable casual atmosphere. Had lots of fun dancing and relaxing on a couple of nights when we weren't going diving early the next day.

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❤️
