The Sachika has 10 cabins, including 3 suites, 1 junior suite, 4 standard double or twin cabins, and 2 twin cabins, catering to 22 guests. Each cabin has an air conditioner, en-suite bathroom, mini-bar, and private entertainment hubs. The sundeck with its jacuzzi is perfect for relaxation between dives and stargazing at night.

Mindblowing, completely exceeded our expectations

Bea (the boat manager) and the crew have created a warm, welcoming, joyful atmosphere on the boat. The minute you arrive you are greeted with the warm smiles of the crew and a refreshing welcome drink. From there, you can enjoy some of the best diving in the world. The dive guides were knowledgeable-timing the dives so we had the best opportunity to see the undersea life we were hoping to see (mantas, whale sharks, sharks, turtles). There was a variety of skill levels on the boat but they managed nicely to arrange us in groups that were appropriate for everyone. The food was delicious and there was a wide selection to choose from. If was a buffet style so you could choose what you wanted and eat as much/as little as you wanted. They stopped at small islands from time to time so we could enjoy the beauty of the desert islands that the Maldives are so famous for. On the last day, we also had a tour around the capital city of Male. We felt the price was very reasonable for the number of dives we could do, the amount of food we were able to eat, the extra tours they provided, the beach barbecue, etc. The crew of the dhoni prepared our dive gear and tanks every dive so it was pure heaven to just go to the dhoni, put on our equipment, and jump in the water. Every detail was taken care of. Athithi, our excellent dive guide, was able to show us some amazing sites but did not take any risks when there was a current, etc. We always felt like he was looking out for our safety. The dining area is set up so you get to sit with other passengers and enjoy getting to know other people. By the end of the week, we felt as though we had made 20 new dive friends. We are so thankful we chose Sachika for our Maldives adventure. Thank you to all the crew.
