Pearl 111

From getting on the boat tender to leaving the crew on our last day, we had an experience we would never forget! The five crew were fabulous and gave the seven passengers top notch service the entire time we were on the Pear III. The captain made every snorkeling experience better than the last. Johnny our snorkeling guide showed us something new every time we hit the beautiful blue water of the Maldives. Along with swimming with Manta Rays, sting rays, eagle rays and nurse sharks, we also got to swim with not one but two whale sharks! Prince our server was the best at making us feel like we were eating at a five star restaurant, especially with his creative napkin art. He was so kind and accommodating. He truly made our week at sea exceptional. Our chef Miton ( not sure of the spelling) took fabulous care of making sure we went home 10 pounds heavier. The food on the Pearl was amazing. There was a great variety to choose from at every meal. The soups at lunch and dinner were very delicious and creative!
The only down fall was the water on the boat. You would be in the shower all soaped up and need to wait a minute or two for the water to come back. It would also be nice if the boat was able to provide a water cooler dispenser for drinking water instead of using plastic water bottles. This would help immensely with the pollution problem the water of the Maldives is experiencing. It was sad to see the floating plastic water bottles in the ocean. The bbq they host on a special island was a beautiful and delicious experience. This crew went above and beyond to make our experience in the Maldives a magical one! Thank you!

The crew was great. The service they provided was top and everything made a great experience. The snorkelling was a highlight but the food and overall service was also amazing.

I want to start by saying that this was our first trip to the Maldives and we were very happy. There were only six of us on the boat, which was fantastic because four of us were already there, so it was practically like having a private boat. The crew was exceptional! Prince, Johnny, and Ali stood out for their kindness and friendliness. The cook prepared sublime dishes, delighting us from the first day with Maldivian and international cuisine. We went on beautiful excursions and snorkeling on the coral reef. We managed to see a myriad of fish, including the whale shark, rays, and mantas. They let us fish, and it was wonderful! The boat is very nice, although it needs a bit of maintenance because it is dated. Despite this, the cleanliness is thorough, and towel changes are done mid-week. The boat manager, Karim, was super kind from the first day when he picked us up at the airport, sending us messages to check how our trip was going, and picking us up on disembarkation day, he took us on a tour of Malé. We couldn't have asked for more. They surprised me with a delicious birthday cake and prepared a fantastic barbecue on the beach at night! It was a wonderful experience! Absolutely to be repeated.

The cruise on the schooner was exceptional. The crew took great care of us and the quality of service exceeded our expectations. The chef delighted us every day with different dishes. The captain took us to different underwater sites each day, and we were able to encounter manta rays, nurse sharks, and dolphins. One downside was the generator, which was very noisy, day and night.

It is with great enthusiasm and satisfaction that I share my extraordinary experience aboard the Pearl 111. From the very beginning, the Commander demonstrated impeccable professionalism, skillfully guiding the ship through the crystal-clear waters of the Indian Ocean. The crew made the journey even more memorable with their extraordinary kindness and attention to detail. Every crew member contributed to creating a welcoming and warm atmosphere, making us feel pampered and comfortable throughout our stay. The quality of service was exceptional, from the cleanliness of the cabins to the meals. Every request was handled promptly and courteously, demonstrating a constant commitment to ensuring maximum guest satisfaction. The Maldives are already a paradise on earth, but this cruise was made even more extraordinary thanks to the exceptional team on board. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an unforgettable journey, enriched by the professionalism of the Commander and the caring attention of the crew. Thank you for making this vacation in the Maldives a unique and unforgettable experience!
