The whole crew worked perfectly together . Beginning with the captain, to the second captain steering in the night, the wonderful diving crew including well trained dive guides and dinky drivers, superb meals presented by the cook and his aids and an always excellent service.

Everybody was really good

Guest Comments:
why is the way back to the port only at 3 am and not sooner?

Any crew standout?
everybody did. they where extremely friendly, helpful, casual, pleased every desire and didn't bother us if we wanted to dive longer or deeper, as long as it fit the rules. they were very easygoing and weren't as strict and stoic as we usually experience divemasters. The crew urged to help/fix any problems that stumbled along the way as fast as they could and to the best of their capabilities.

Any crew standout?
THE WHOLE CREW IS ALWAYS AMAZING. EVERY TIME I COME BACK THEY MAKE ME FEEL AT HOME. EVEN IF IVE NEVER MET THEM BEFORE

Guest Comments:
this boat is 30 pax which is too busy to dive. with 4 groups tooks many time, meals so no time to rest. Hastle and rush... that is our impression.

Osa & Alice they were best wait&waitress. They were so kind and best quality service that we can have on board. When ever where ever, they find what we want and looking for. Especially, capuccino heart of Alice is best impression of it. Ellin, Mario and Nico dive master are best. They know the site well and understand what customer want to. Skipper and Manta man, they gave big smile us and very thank you.

Jaccuzzi was not working, it would have been great to use it after diving to warm up

Look forward to my next trip!!

Any crew standout?
This was my first liveaboard and all the crew made us feel like family. It was apparent from day one, their goal was make us very happy and safe throughout the entire trip. Anything we asked for they were willing to help, we could talk to everyone and we would always have good laughs. Safety was a priority of all crew members not just for us as quest, but themselves. Just watching the crew interact it was very easy to see they all get along very well. Food had a good variety, no way you would ever be hungry. The dive masters were right on point, making this an experience to never forget. Marine life, well that spoke for itself, simply amazing!! If I was to single out one individual that would be so unfair to the rest of the staff. All of the staff were extraordinary!! Well done and you should all be proud of yourselves!!

Maniele (Manu) made a big positive impression on me and was a super super nice person and exceptional dive master. I also went with Manu on the Sunset Whale Watching cruise before the trip. Saki and Marlene also from a Hostess perspective went out of their way to ensure I had everything I needed and we so friendly and enjoyable to be around.

Everyone was excellent and went out of their way to help.

Saki and Marlene were extremely attentative and friendly hostesses whose service we truly appreciated. Pablo and Manu were our favorite divemasters with clear briefings, safe diving practices with clear signals above and under water. Manu also went far beyond his actual job describtion by putting together a magnificent trip video and being available to discuss any matter that came up during the trip and finding a solution. Captain Gordon also seemed always available and approachable to the guests and gave us every information about the next day and in general.

WOW, THAT IS A REALLY HARD QUESTION TO ANSWER. THE TEAM ON BOARD ARE ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, THEY ALL HOLD THEIR OWN UNIQUE QUALITIES WHICH ARE CLEARLY PORTRAYED WHEN WORKING. USUALLY I WOULD VOUCH FOR DMS BECAUSE THE DIVING EXPERIENCE IS PREDOMENANTLY THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO DELIVER AS BEST THEY CAN - AND THEY EXCELLED IN IT! BUT, MARLENE AND SAKI STOOD OUT TO ME AS BEING HOSTS TO GUESTS NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS. THEY WERE INCREDIBLY ATTENTIVE, POLITE, CARING AND SO FORTHCOMING, I JUST REALLY FELT AT HOME WITH THEM HERE. THE WHOLE TEAM DID A GREAT JOB!

Any crew standout?
Everyone was hard working and had multiple jobs to ensure we felt safe and comfortable. The hostesses - Saki and Marlene, were excellent. It was Marlene's first trip but she was so professional I would have never guessed. Saki was also always extremely friendly and helpful. Additionally, Pablo and Manu were fantastic dive guides, with clear briefings, plan and diving style.

Manu, Saki and Marlene, always going above and beyond to make everyone happy

Gordon the captain is the friendliest most professional captain i have experienced. Saki the hostess is a world of enjoyment and loveliness.

Everyone was friendly and helpful

I feel that each and every crew member did an amazing job and went above and beyond to make us enjoy the trip! A huge thanks to every one of them, without any complaints! I personally found Manu to be an amazing guy, whom i enjoyed both diving and spending time with. Peter also went above and beyond during the dives to show us stuff. Saki is just a super kind and pleasant person to be around. If i had to point someone out, it would be three of them.

Guest Comments:
Was suprised of the charge for Nirtox nearly every other boat I have been on do not charge

Any crew standout?
The hostess team were excellent

Guest Comments:
Everything was fantastic from start to finish. Only potential areas for improvement: - More outdoor seating options - Slightly more attentiveness of deck hands to get you into your equipment - Slightly more variation of food for vegetarians (though I was catered to very well!)

Any crew standout?
The best crew of any liveaboard I have been on. Everyone on this boat goes the extra mile to make sure needs are met whilst being enjoyable humans to spend time with in addition. Particular mentions for Saki, Marlene, and Celina

Guest Comments:
The trip as a whole was very enjoyable! The food in particular exceeded my expectation. If there is one thing I would change it would be to include more traditional Mexican cuisine in the menu.

The whole crew was impressive, everyone going above and beyond what their job descriptions are. Enrique and his cooking definitely kept us all going and it was a joy to see him enjoying his job in the kitchen. All the divemasters, especially Eli and Juan, made every dive a great experience, we felt totally confident in their hands and appreciated feeling like we were all one group of friends on a great adventure. Julio as the captain was the perfect level of friendly and serious, it brought a lot of confidence that he takes his job and our safety so seriously. And of course, without Alice and Osa we would have been bored, they took great care of us and it felt like they knew our needs before we did.
