Hotel con piscina a Waisai

I spent a fantastic two weeks diving with Meridian Adventure Dive in Raja Ampat over the December Christmas period, and I can't recommend them highly enough. Doing my PADI open water course with Instructor Duan was a breeze—he's truly skilled and made my first diving experience comfortable and exciting. The diving setup here is impeccable; they take care of everything from well-maintained gear to the pamper of having your gear set up on you before you dive by the crew and collected afterwards, which meant I only needed to focus on my nerves as a first-time diver. The dive team ensures you're geared up and ready for the water effortlessly. Their top-notch guides lead incredible underwater adventures and point out all the exciting marine life, from macro creatures to cunning wobbegongs. The high-speed boats were surprisingly comfortable and fast, taking us to a variety of dive sites. Enjoying surface intervals at the stunning surrounding islands was an added delight. Staying at the hotel was a treat—cosy rooms, immaculate and serviced daily with air conditioning. But honestly, when in Raja Ampat, you'll want to be out exploring, not in your room! The onsite restaurant and bar made life all that much easier! There's nothing like a good cocktail at the pool after a day of diving. Massive gratitude to ALL the resort staff, local dive guides, and the fantastic interns—Alice, Margot, and Louie— I wish I could name them all, but you were all GREAT!! This experience with Meridian Adventure Dive in Raja Ampat has spoilt all my future diving trips because I don't think I will easily experience anything close to this! Leaving was tough, but I'm already eagerly anticipating my next visit!
