Solitude Adventurer, Indonesien

They set the liveaboard bar incredibly high, I'm not sure how I'll go with anyone else now.

6 mantas swimming in a row in front of us, incredible. The crew is soooo helpful and friendly, constantly jumping to help you with anything and everything, I don't think I put my wetsuit on myself once. The crew played music for us almost every night, but the last night we sat on the deck and they played for us for hours, magical. The bat show was one of the most surreal experiences I've ever had, watching thousands of bats fly out of the mangroves into the sunset. I will be reliving this trip in my memory for a very long time.

Dives were gorgeous, staff was absolutely amazing, great food!

Fantastic dive trip

Our trip on the Solitude Adventurer was really fantastic. The diving in Raja Ampat sells itself (yes, it is as good as advertised), and the staff and crew of the boat were organized, efficient and attentive (lots of personalized attention and assistance). The diving logistics were top notch - safety a primary focus, lots of extra equipment if people needed it, great dive briefings, small dive groups of 3-5 divers per guide, alternating guides, easy on and off the boat, great care cleaning and organizing our equipment. The food was varied, cooked fresh with multiple offerings at each meal, an addictive coffee machine, and free soda, juice and water. A limited selection of beer and wine are also available for purchase. We had a bbq on the upper sun deck on one of the nights, with delicious food and the crew playing great music (some serious guitar talent in the group). The rooms (we had a deluxe double) were spacious, comfortable and clean. We had our own bathroom and plenty of space to store our stuff. One note is that the outlets on the boat are Australian (the boat’s origin), so pack accordingly. The common spaces and rooms are also air-conditioned, and the upper sun deck a great place to hang and enjoy the view. Overall, a really great trip that we highly recommend!

Diving the boat and crew

fast boat let us do lots of diving at the best sites in a short period of time

So many amazing dives, it's hard to pick highlights. Such beautiful coral and diversity of life underwater. Water was so warm I just wore a rashguard. The dive deck is really spacious and nice. Food was great, and the seating in the common space was comfy, though the bed was HARD unfortunately. I also found that some of the dive guides over-emphasized small macro stuff and we didn't really get to see all that some of the dive sites had to offer (they rotate you between the dive guides, which is nice since they have different strengths and weaknesses... )

dive sites selected, the food, and the dive deck

Amazing! 5 star service! Completely spoiled by the staff!! Boat is spacious and like a yacht!

The Manta Ray dive was spectacular. Spent an hour watching them. All the dive sights were fantastic and so different. The crew is so on top of everything, very spoiled. The deluxe cabins with the windows made the trip sooooo awesome, watching all the beauty from your own cabin. Plus the upper deck was a great place to hang out. The BBQ and all the food was so good, again its worth the little extra money to get the personal service, amazing cabins and best diving ever!!
