The boat and cabin were great. Very new, modern, and clean. The beds and pillows were comfortable. I was very surprised to see large, plush towels for us to use in the bathrooms. The bathrooms were nicely sized with amazing views! A/C worked too well! And there is a tv, but we couldn't figure it out to use. Not that it was needed.We appreciated the refillable water stations on the boat, and lack of one use plastics. Which unfortunately seems endemic in Palau.The dives were good when the weather allowed us to reach some of the more famous sites. We unfortunately missed Blue Holes and another dive site due to high winds and waves, but no fault of the boat. Get ready for some bumpy dinghy rides if there is even a bit of swell. German channel, Sand Bar, and the Spawning Bumphead dive were our favorites! Reef sharks everywhere, couple of mantas. The spawning bumpheads were unique and we saw the resident bull shark!The crew was fantastic and the best part of our trip. Everyone was warm, and welcoming. We especially appreciated our dive guide, Ravi and Row of the housekeeping team. Food was very good, and catered to many different tastes and preferences.
