Exceptional Service and Seamless Coordination Despite Travel Delays Rating: ★★★★☆ We recently completed a diving trip with this company, and despite facing significant flight delays at the start, the company’s flexibility and quick response were impressive. They managed to adjust the logistics seamlessly, ensuring our itinerary remained completely unaffected. Professional Dive Team & Service: The crew’s attention to detail is world-class. Managing various pieces of dive gear and small accessories can be chaotic, but the staff managed to remember the specific habits and equipment preferences of every guest. This made the diving operations incredibly smooth and stress-free. Our Dive Guide Jack was the highlight of the trip. Beyond being professional and highly experienced, they were humorous and engaging. Their deep knowledge of the local ecosystem and ability to spot rare marine life at every dive site added immense value to our underwater experience. Dining & Atmosphere: The food was satisfactory, but what truly stood out was the culinary team’s ability to create a fantastic atmosphere. The chefs were great entertainers, and their hospitality more than made up for the standard meal offerings, making every dining experience enjoyable. Accommodation & Housekeeping: The cabins were adequate and kept tidy. However, we noticed that housekeeping was a bit reactive—towels were not replaced and trash bins were not emptied unless a specific request was made. While the staff were happy to help once asked, a more proactive approach to room maintenance would have been appreciated. Verdict: While there is minor room for improvement regarding housekeeping, the exceptional professionalism of the dive team and the crew's resourcefulness made this a highly successful trip. I would recommend this operator to any diver who values high-quality service and expert guiding. Note: double room at the front has weird shape bad , very short even for a short person like me

Incredible liveboard trip with fun, knowledgable staff that will go above and beyond for you!
This was my first liveaboard, and the Manta Queen 3 team certainly set the bar high! They just made it so easy: from the complimentary hotel transfers to and from Phuket, guiding us through some incredible dive sites, and ensuring we were all happy and well-fed back on the boat. All the staff went above and beyond every day to ensure we all had the best experience possible. I wouldn't think twice about booking another trip with the Manta Queen 3!

- Fantastic dive crew that were well organized, safe, and went above and beyond to ensure every dive was spectacular.. The Thai boat crew that worked hard to make sure we got in and out of the boats safely, filled our tanks, and maintained a fun atmosphere on the dive deck. The kitchen crew that made sure we were always well taken care of with delicious meals, snacks, and warm drinks after every dive.

Outstanding Hospitality and Incredible Dives
My dive experience was truly exceptional. Each dive briefing was informative and educational, with guides sharing details about the dive sites, the marine life we might encounter, and important safety tips. Every dive revealed something special, and the guides paid attention to even the smallest details, such as helping us remove our fins after dives, a level of service I have never experienced before. The boat may not have been the newest, but the hospitality was outstanding. The crew made my bed and prepared well-cooked meals, and the boat even provided seasickness tablets and common medication needed during a liveaboard. The dive deck crew took care of all my dive preparations, allowing me to relax and feel completely looked after while putting on and taking off my gear, truly making the experience effortless. The captain kept the boat perfectly positioned, so we didn’t lose any time moving between dive sites. If I were to suggest one improvement, it would be to install a PA system or microphone onboard so briefings can be heard more clearly, particularly when the boat is underway.
