Great trip, would absolutely recommend for anyone
My experience on Lady Denok was absolutely fantastic! They lived up to expectations as a top rated liveaboard and it made my vacation an unforgettable experience. The crew worked so well together to make sure that I was attended to throughout the day. The boat was a great layout for diving and living, easy to be social or find a quiet spot to relax. And the diving was absolutely fantastic, guides were pointing out big and small stuff everywhere, so many unique creatures!

An Unforgettable Liveaboard Experience in Raja Ampat We felt completely at ease throughout our liveaboard journey, thanks to the team’s outstanding service and attention to detail. The meals were consistently delicious and added greatly to the overall experience. Combined with the incredible diversity of dive sites in Raja Ampat - teeming with marine life and showcasing some of the most stunning coral reefs in the world - this trip was truly perfect.

Thank you Lady Denok Team for a great liveaboard experience!
We had an amazing Liveaboard experience on Lady Denok (10 nights, Raja Ampat)! The crew did a great job and it was far better than expected! - safety was always priority no. 1 - the food was so yummie! It was a good mix of food, meat and veggie options and more than enough for everyone. (Light breakfast, full breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner and cookies/chips were available 24/7. We were basically eating all the time when we were on the surface. Soft drinks like Coca Cola are included.) - after every dive we got a fresh towel and we were always welcomed back on board with a great dink (warm or cold juice, from tea to banana-avocado mix we were positively surprised every time) - organization was close to perfect and we felt well informed throughout the journey. Communication was great. - land excursions were an amazing add-on to the diving experience. Diving in Raja Ampat was a dream come true! It was a brilliant mix of everything: great coral reefs, large pelagic like reef sharks or manta rays as well as macro life like Pygmy Seahorses, Nudibranches, Crabs etc.

A wonderful experience- highly recommended as a way of exploring Raja Ampat and Misool
A brilliant trip with Lady Denok- I travelled on the 12 day Raja Ampat cruise which went to Misool and central RA/Dampier straight. We had a very small group of only 5 divers, and so our diving experience was amazing with only the handful of us at most of the dive sites at any one time. Food, staff, and overall experience was brilliant and very good value for money. Like most of the locally made Phinisi style of ships, she leaks a little bit inside during heavy rain, but this never posed a major issue and the ship itself was aesthetically beautiful (and supports the local shipbuilding industry). With only 5 people, we had more then enough space for ourselves, but I can imagine how the ship might feel a little crowded with a full complement of divers on board. I rented some of my dive gear from the ship and it was all quite new and in excellent condition. Food was as good as any I've eaten on a ship- massive compliments to the chef. Overall I would HIGHLY recommend!

Fantastic and diverse diving week
Crystal Rock and Manta Point diving (saw a big Manta). Crystal-clear waters in the mornings like in an aquarium. Schools of colourful fishes including barracudas. Lots of turtles and nudibranches. The night dives with crabs, lobsters and even spanish dancers. Visiting Komodo island and encountering the dragons, making funny pictures with them. Always great food and teas & snacks between dives. Great white and pink sand beaches with turquoise waters. Very nice crew, dive guides and fellow divers.

Great crew, excellent service, good food, spectacular diving. Worth every penny.
This was a great trip. The crew was awesome and the diving spectacular. Everything was focused on service comfort and dive safety. The dive masters were thorough in their briefings and were very attentive under water. They also were great in finding and pointing out fish and other critters we otherwise may have missed. I also appreciated the few excursions (e.g to the Komodo dragon reserve).

Labuan Bajo Liveaboard on Lady Denok: Dive, Dine & Dragons! 🤿 🍱 🐉 🌊
Gear up for a long review: Just returned from an incredible liveaboard adventure aboard Lady Denok in Labuan Bajo, booked through LiveAboard.com and honestly, it couldn’t have gone smoother! 🌐 Booking Experience: Huge shoutout to LiveAboard.com, this is my second booking thru this site, people are super prompt, site iseasy to book, and incredibly helpful with all my queries. Everything was seamless from start to finish. 🚤 The Trip Itself: Lady Denok was the perfect home for this adventure: comfortable, clean, and well run. Massive thanks to boat manager Eggi and dive guide Yoppie, they kept things safe, fun, and memorable throughout. 🤿 Diving: Spectacular! The dive sites in Komodo National Park are out of this world, teeming with variety of life including live corals. some sites had real strong currents. The rented gear was top-notch and well-maintained. 🥗 Food: As a vegetarian, I felt completely taken care of, every meal was thoughtful, filling, and full of variety. 🏝️ Beyond Diving: We also did two amazing treks: • Padar Island: for breathtaking views and a crazy beautiful sunset • Komodo National Park: where we got to see real Komodo dragons in their natural habitat! 🐉 ✨ Unforgettable Moment: The special dinner night on deck under the stars: twinkling lights, music, delicious food, and the kind of atmosphere you never forget. Pure magic. I’d absolutely recommend Lady Denok via LiveAboard.com for anyone planning to dive in Komodo. It was the perfect mix of underwater adventure, island exploration, and onboard relaxation.

Beyond Professionalism: A World-Class Diving Haven Defined by Sincerity, Family Spirit, and Culinary Excellence.
My 10-day journey on this liveaboard in Raja Ampat was not just a diving holiday; it was a masterclass in what a hospitality-driven diving experience should be. From the moment I stepped onto the deck, it was clear that this boat is a sanctuary perfectly optimized for divers. First and foremost, the diving operations are flawlessly executed. The crew moves with incredible agility and precision, ensuring that every gear setup and safety protocol is top-notch before you even think to ask. Their briefings are deeply insightful, but what truly moved me was their profound respect for the ocean. It wasn't uncommon to see the crew leading by example, consistently picking up underwater debris during dives. Seeing them act as true guardians of the reef added a level of integrity and pride to our dives that you rarely find elsewhere. The level of personalized care and attention to detail on this boat is simply incomparable. The crew operates as a single, cohesive unit—they notice the smallest things, from a slight change in your appetite to a minor stumble on the deck. They share this information among themselves to ensure your comfort and safety are always prioritized. This sincerity extends to the dining table as well. The culinary experience was a highlight, featuring a magnificent fusion of authentic local flavors and international dishes. Whether you prefer Asian or Western cuisine, every meal was a masterpiece, and the crew’s thoughtfulness in checking if you’re well-fed makes you feel truly cherished. Beyond their roles as staff, the crew became friends and family. Even during their well-deserved resting hours, they never hesitated to sit with me as I filled out my logbook, patiently helping me identify every single species we encountered. They don't just "provide a service"—they give you their hearts. At night, the atmosphere transformed into a warm gathering where we shared games, friendly jokes, and laughter that made the boat feel like a home away from home. Their positive energy is infectious, ensuring that every second spent onboard is filled with ultimate comfort and genuine joy. Every briefing, every refreshing towel after a dive, and every sincere smile was a testament to their passion. This is a boat where professional excellence meets heartfelt sincerity. If you are looking for an elite diving standard wrapped in the warmth of a family, this is the only choice in Raja Ampat.

Very happy tour
1. The last dive at Manta Ridge was mind blowing, with white and black mantas put on some sort of airiel show, gliding, sliding and hovering over our heads in grace. 2.The coral garden at Melissa Garden was like an impressionist painting ,wave of leave like fish emerging from and submerging into the brownish coral. 3. Tiny pigmy seahorses camouflaged in pink or orange reef; 4. Night dives at the lighted color reef like treasure hunt Listing can go on and on. I am equally impressive with diving companions for their kindness, happy and adventurous mind sets. The crew from Jimmy the manager on down are always smiling, attentive, and cheerful, a bunch of loving hearts. So grateful to them for caring me all along. I could not wait to come on Lady Denok for another trip.

Can't recommend enough
What an incredible experience! I just came back home from my trip with Lady Denok and overall it was unforgetable. We were on the boat for 11days and 10 nights, 9 full days of diving and did 31 dives in total, and all of them had something memorable. First half of our trip was in Misool and second half in Central Raja Ampat, which i think was a great choice. Misool offered dramatic underwater landscapes, walls, some currents, a great variety of underwater life from big stuff to small stuff and exclusive access to the dive sites with their reservation system. Central Raja Ampat had more accessible dive sites with gentle slops, also with great variety of life, but more crowded with multiple liveaboards and homestays accessing the same spots. Still immensely enjoyable. From the moment of the hotel pick up, to the briefings, to the attentiveness of the staff, the service, the food, the dives, until the last moment we felt very well taken care of by Jimmy and his entire team. You won't be unhappy to choose Lady Denok.

Unfortunatly the six days went by in a flash
The range of dives. There were dives in different areas with different things to see. We saw big stuff like sharks and mantas, plenty of turtles, down to the small stuff like pygmy seahorses and lots of nudibranchs. Jimmy the dive guide was very knowledgeable about each of the 17 dive sites we visited, drew good maps (from memory) and gave excellent briefings before each dive. Coming up from a dive and stepping back onto the Lady Denok 5 minutes later to be handed a delicious ginger tea was also a pleasure I looked forward to.

Amazing liveaboard over a savannah landscape with amazingly hospitable crew
I joined Lady Denok in mid-July and was impressed by the itinerary and hospitality we received. We did 14 dives over 5 days and had 2 land trips in between where hiking was involved. The hike was a good addition to the itinerary and gave us the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful savannah landscape of Komodo! I was also surprised by the biodiversity in Komodo national park, we saw a good spread of colorful reefs, fishes, mantas and sharks during our dives. Dive sites are suited for intermediate divers due to some strong currents underwater but dive masters were experienced and apt in managing the group. Despite the conditions, we felt safe during the dives. Lastly, the boat crew was attentive and accommodative of our needs. After the end of every dive, the crew would welcome us back to the boat with enthusiastic cheers and delicious, thirst-quenching beverages. I highly recommend Lady Denok for your next adventure!

A week of wonderful diving on board the Phinisi Lade Denok
With high anticipation we stepped on board this beautiful and well thought out wooden vessel. From this moment on all the crew bent over backwards to make us feel safe, at home and very well taken care of. The airconditioned cabins were well laid out, comfortable and have each private ensuite bathrooms. The main dining area was not only the place to enjoy various sumptuous meals a day (these chefs can cook!!) but it was the area to share experiences and video/photos after each great dive. The dive deck was spacious with a personal station for each diver. Briefings were spot on and based on safety and respect for marine life. Tenderboats took divers to and back from dive sites up to four times a day. We were able to log 21 dives (of which 5 night dives). Dive profiles varied based on the type of reef. Guide to diver ratio was set to max 1 to 4. Marine life was abundant and sheer untouched. We encountered several type of sharks, mantas, mobulas, rays, turtles, schooling fish, nudibranch and a lot of elusive critters that were high on our wishlist. Each dive turned out to be the next best dive ever! After each dive, drinks, a hot shower on deck and fluffy towels awaited us as well as many helpful hands to handle and rinse our gear. We also had the opportunity to do several land trips. With a combined experience of 135 years of worldwide diving (landbased as well as liveaboards) under our belts and having worked in the dive industry, we can honestly say that diving with the crew of the Lady Denok is safe, fun, very enjoyable and therefor highly recommended. This was what liveaboard diving should be like!! Thank you. Thank you so much crew of the Sep 2 - Sep 9 2025 tour.

The crew takes remarkable pride in what they do, they went beyond what would be expected. You get a genuine feel that it is not just a job for them.
