Amba Malediven: Schedule, Deals, Reviews

10 giorni magnifici in un paradiso terrestre. Barca molto ben attrezzata. Personale di bordo molto disponibile e attento al cliente. Grande professionalità. Assolutamente da consigliare.

We didn't know anything about Amba beforehand, but chose it because of the itinerary and liked that there weren't too many divers. Everything about the boat was a nice, pleasant surprise. It feels spacious and our cabin was very comfortable and well-organized (Amba is the first liveaboard we've seen (out of at least 25) that actually provides extra hooks, shelving and accessories to store everything away while keeping the cabin relatively humidity-free). Everything was run smoothly and it was obvious from the start that the crew is experienced, attentive and professional and that they prioritized safety and guests' comfort. They were also cheerful and often made me smile! Nothing felt rushed or hectic and everything was available on the dhoni and main boat to have a relaxed diving holiday. We were happy with the diving and could spend lots of time with sharks, mantas (I have one video with 80!!), turtles, barracudas... Our dive guide knew the sites and was observant, not only when it came to finding small and big stuff but checking our group and equipment. The food after every dive was amazing with a lot of flavor, variety and just sheer quantity! I liked that it wasn't the usual buffet style and that we never seemed to run out (something I've actually encountered post-covid on other boats when I'm slow to get food) We were amazed at the amount of food, with lots of fresh fish but even lots of different proteins, including wonderfully juicy lamb and warm freshly baked bread and rolls, pastries and desserts! The common areas are comfortable with a huge shaded/sunny lounge area but also a bar/bodega and area for socializing. Basically, Amba ticked off everything we were looking for in our Maldives holiday and I think that we would definitely cruise with them again.

Very good experience, good staff during the dives, safety and a lot of attention to guests for everything during the trip
