The magic of Moanna, Mario, Crew and Komodo
I fell in love with Moanna - very well appointed and proportioned. All parts are aesthetically very pleasing - even the air conditioners are covered with timber- so they blend in. The rooms, deck, diving area - all feel well sized, functional and attractive. It is an incredibly beautiful and a very functional vessel - could not ask for more. Then there is Mario - a very experienced and well seasoned interesting character. He runs a tight ship almost effortlessly. The dive equipment, air compressors, engines and generators are shiny; his knowledge of currents - the right spots to dive in along with his focus on safety just makes you feel that you are in expert hands and don’t need to worry about a thing. Mario and Moanna go together naturally. Then there are the lovely, attentive crew and dive guides. Friendly, competent, nothing is too much trouble - food is great They set up the equipment, guide you on and off the smaller dive boats - which are very comfortable. Everything just seems to happen (including 13 litre cylinders at 200 bar - never less) smoothly and effortlessly - leaving you to relax, enjoy and dive. Finally, there are the magical corals and natural wonders of Komodo. Left me feeling like I was in a dreamworld underwater (I dreamt of corals for days afterwards) Those six days made me feel that all is well with the world If you are reading this review and looking at boats - fearlessly and without doubt book Moanna.

A truly memorable Komodo experience with Moana liveaboard
I had an incredible time aboard Moana in Komodo. As a diver, one can really feel that this boat and its crew have been focused on exploring these waters for a long time — their deep local knowledge made for a perfectly balanced itinerary that combined iconic sites with hidden gems like Police Corner, a site that only reveals its magic at just the right time. With a small group of divers and a spacious, beautifully maintained boat, the atmosphere on board was relaxed and friendly. The crew were always ready to help with a smile, creating a warm, family-like vibe throughout the trip. Add to that some truly delicious meals — it’s safe to say we were spoiled both above and below the surface. Beyond the spectacular diving, the shore excursions offered a glimpse of Komodo’s rugged landscapes and wildlife. And personally, this trip pushed me to fine-tune my diving setup and skills — I left not just with amazing memories, but as a better, more confident diver.

Unforgettable experience on the best looking boat in Komodo
Mario did an incredible job navigating the crazy weather that we experienced and made sure that we didn’t miss a dive. The crew were incredible and the meals were always a warm welcome after each dive. The guides knew each site like the back of their hand and were great to dive with. The boat itself is a thing of beauty and very well equipped for all kinds of divers.

Unforgettable family
Beautifully designed boat with the most incredible staff that go out of their ways to make us feel at home — accommodated my very picky dietary request at every meal, endless desire to fly my drone, etc. And they’re simply the most charming and talented people. Needless to say Komodo islands were breathtaking. Diving was great — some of the healthiest and liveliest coral lives I’ve seen. And I had the best group of divers to share with. Also worth mentioning that the boat takes max 10 divers (we had 9) which is the perfect group size for socializing over 6 days while allowing all of us max attention from the crew (12 people)!
