Comments	We stayed in one of the two Master Cabins which was 100% worth the money. The cabin was spacious and had a lovely private balcony off the rear of the boat. The bathroom was large and well stocked. Towels were plentiful in both the bathroom and for diving. Dive towels were embroidered with the name of the cabin and were fresh and hot for each dive. Divers were divided into groups of four. Dive guides were great at finding critters to photograph. We had multiple encounters with mantas and saw tons of blue ringed octopi. The food on board was fantastic with lots of variety and delicious baked goods. The shore excursions were great. We had one that rained out - it was a climb to one of the peaks. The boat staff found another alternative to make up for it. The entire dive operation was incredibly service oriented, efficient, and professional. Wetsuits, BC's and other equipment was cleaned and hung (or placed in your cubby) after every dive. The staff knew after a day what belonged to each diver. If you wanted, the staff would remove your camera from the tender after each dive, rinse it, dry it with an air hose and return it to the camera room. There were two tenders and divers were broken up into four groups. While two groups got ready, the other two groups waited to get ready. When the first tenders had left with divers, the second group would get ready, so the tenders and dive decks were never overcrowded. We had planned to go back in 2024 and do Komodo with the Coralia and were sad to find out that Komodo was not one of the itineraries being offered in 2024. We do plan to return, though!
