When not exploring Maldives's amazing reefs and islands, guests can relax on the sundeck or dip in the onboard jacuzzi.
The Felicity visits several world-famous spots around the Maldives, including Manta Point and Rasfari Corner, which are full of hard corals and host a cleaning station.

Sometimes a deal is a deal for a reason.
Overall a pleasant experience. Because the tip was included the crew and dive guides took little interest in the passengers. The dive boat was very crowded. Getting in and out of the water was chaos at times. The guides didnt track who came on dives which wasnt assuring. They were good at getting us to good dive sites amd all our dives in despite some bad weather. The food was good and the cabin was good. Most of us didnt have hot water in oir showers the 1st 2 days but the crew was quick to address. Food was good. Coffee was meh. And $5 for a coke is ridiculous. Im glad i did it but i would never book with them again. The dives were pretty good though most pretty deep. Lots of current to contend with as well.

Great views and diving. Customer experience needs some love
We thoroughly enjoyed our trip - great sites, views, boat and an international cast of characters that were charming, friendly, and wonderful to share in the experience. The rental equipment was brand new and in abundant supply. The deckhands made it turnkey simple with Nitrox checks, filled tanks, and warm towels. What was discordant, however, was that there was no obvious cruise director, no clear person in charge - of safety, of the wellbeing of the divers, and of ensuring a great customer experience. The boat owner outsourced the dive guides to contractors, one of whom ostensibly served as the cruise director (though nothing remotely close to 'direction' was given and he only indicated he was in charge, after we asked where the director was). We had transactional briefings about our dives, only. Otherwise the 'cruise director' was lying about always playing video games either on the big TV in the main room or stuck to his phone, not interacting with the guests, and generally giving off a dismissive, disengaged, uninterested feeling about the whole experience. Additional observations: - we were asked for the same information as LiveAboard requested, once we arrived - timely, duplicative paperwork that was justified as "we haven't received information about you from LiveAboard" - we were given little macro overview about the schedule - i.e. what we could look forward to, where we were going in future days - there was no safety briefing - ever - the schedule likely would've been better suited to travellers if there was an option to deboard after the morning dive on Sunday - which was wrapped up by 9am and after which we spent the whole day and the next morning on board, but were only a stone's throw away from the Male airport. We recommend there be an option to leave sooner and get on with our vacation In sum: the tour operator seemed like they cared very little about the customer experience and haven't set the expectation, invested in, or done the training for their contractors to provide this. Their paperwork was redundant with yours. And the schedule could be shortened w/o shortchanging the experience. Otherwise, the country, the dive sites, and the wildlife were fabulous.

Unforgettable trip!
Had an incredible time on My Felicity Liveaboard! The dive guides were all amazing and we saw so many sharks, mantas and sea turtles! All food onboard and staff were wonderful. An unforgettable experience for sure!

Fantastic trip with outstanding visibility and fish life.
The views above & below water were amazing. I've never seen so many rays swimming in the water column. The crew & dive guides were so helpful with any questions or issues.

선실이 꽤 크고 컨디션이 좋습니다. 크루들 모두 친절하고 음식이 맛있었습니다. 다만 맥주 종류가 한종류밖에없고 와인리스트가 적은것은 아쉬웠습니다.

Small thin to improve, but really good value for money
It was our first time on Maldives and first time staying on boat longer than daily trips. Overall experience can be rated as great, but there was some quirks, preventing me from giving 5 star to every aspect. 1) my room on the top deck with sea view got a really small window, like 1/3 of the wall. It’s due to construction of the boat that 2 out of 4 top deck cabins has this limited window. 2) in some places it was visible lack of maintenance, I.e. crack on the back of the boat coat, one of the lamps in the cabin isn’t properly fixed to ceiling, closet door wasn’t properly closing due to missing magnets, so on the waves it was continuously squeaking… 3) on some days there were repeated dives on the same spots, but still I would like to point out that dive guides behavior, explanation of sites and calm approach for diving was really great 4) food was a buffet style each day, great variety and good quality, but I would appreciate at least once to have ‚chef selection‘ experience, bbq on the beach will be even better if it would be preselected by chef set of dishes. So it‘s a small things that may be improved, but it‘s a great experience and great value for money.

Great trip with some caveats
It was a fun trip overall and had lots of interesting Marine Life even in the off season, the crew also taught us to fish which was a fun experience and overall the crew of the Felicity was excellent. However there was no TV in our room (as described in the ad), the jacuzzi was broken and the boat after a couple years shows signs of some wear and tear. They did not seem to do a proper headcount when heading off for dives and the equipment provided was a bit lackluster (not enough reef hooks, poor quality fins with not enough sizes or not enough wet suit choices in more sizes). The dives also felt a bit disorganized, make sure you stay with your DM or buddy as much as possible. Recommended for you to bring as much of your own equipment to ensure you are properly outfitted.

Lots of good things, but not suitable for us as divers with heart and soul.
Wonderful dives, good food, very attentive and helpful crew, always in a good mood. A great week that could have done with more dives. Unfortunately, there was no responsible person to inform us about the ship's rules and behavior on a diving ship and to intervene if necessary. For example, nothing was done about the loud party nights of one group and this was additionally supported with a large music box on the ship. In addition, one of the dive guides also showed the chasing of sharks and manta rays for videos. Although the briefing on this was clear and all the other guides behaved in an exemplary manner. We also missed the safety briefing. Based on this experience, we are unlikely to book the Felicity again, even though the circumstances certainly depended heavily on the participants.
