Felicity 4-star
Most of it was superb! Internet could be stronger. It was great at 4am, but once everyone was awake, it was marginal. The food was average. It was basically the same menu every meal; little variety.

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.

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.

Liveaboard in Maldives mid october
We recently spent a week aboard the Felicity in the Maldives, and overall, it was a great experience. The crew on the boat and the dhoni were friendly and attentive. Our dive guides—Allatey, Ali, Wishu, and Sarah—were professional and knowledgeable, which made our dives enjoyable and safe. The food was good, with the BBQ on the island being a highlight. The boat itself was clean and comfortable, providing a pleasant base for our activities. Diving was diverse, with interesting sites that kept us engaged throughout the week. We’re planning to return in May and would recommend the Felicity for anyone looking for a solid liveaboard experience in the Maldives.

A great trip
Overall it was a great trip. The crew were very safety cautious and made a lot of effort to ensure the group did as many dives as possible despite terrible weather and rough sea all week.

Incredible Dive Experience
We participated in the Felicity liveaboard between September 21 and 28, 2024. The boat is very comfortable, we chose the main deck cabin and it was very good, very spacious, with privacy and easy access. The dives were incredible and the dive masters were super competent and attentive, always concerned about the group but without this becoming a nuisance for the divers during the dives. The spaces on the boat in general, from the main salon to the external leisure areas, are very spacious and comfortable and the service from the crew is very friendly. The food is buffet style and meets expectations, but without much refinement. It is a bit lacking in the variety of drinks, especially wines and beers, which do not have many options. Overall we really enjoyed it and the dives were incredible and well organized.

Loved the experience with the very professional team of staff on board.
We did love our trip but were disappointed to spend 3 nights in the Male area. we thought we would get to more remote places without other boats being around so some dives there were a few other boat and the last 2 nights spent in Male was a big disappointment as we weren't expecting that. We see Manta rays, lots of shark dives and some great dives. I didn't enjoy the whale shark dive, far too many people and I would suggest staggering times to avoid the 20 other boats there. Dive staff were very friendly and professional and looked after us well and on the dive boat the staff were very helpful and friendly and always helpful with out kit. The food was good (albeit sometimes a bit cold) but of very good quality. staff were friendly on board. we had a sea view cabin and it was very good standard with good furniture quality and size, bathroom a fair size too. Although not needed there were no TV's in the room as shown on the details. Free wifi worked well most of the time.
