More "a bit better than average" rather than "elite". Cabins are a very good size and very clean, but bathrooms had some standing water (even on arrival) and smelt a bit. 24 divers split into 2 groups, and general expectation is you dive with the guides = a lot of divers all together; would definitely be better split into 3 groups (other liveaboards I have been on (quite a few!) have split smaller total numbers into 3/4 groups). The itinerary was "Red Sea Sharks" and the cost was at a premium to the regular "Southern" itinerary. Don't bother! It was clear it was a fixed itinerary even though online it says flexible - we spent 2 days at Daedalus Reef with limited shark encounters and (relatively) poor vis and 2 full days at Fury Shoal (no sharks really expected, or seen), yet only did 2 dives at Elphinstone Reef (good for sharks and excellent vis) and none at the Brothers. Staff were all friendly, but logistics/itinerary/diving were disappointing, particularly given the price tag.

Wonderfull experience! First time on a liveaboard; the all staff are so great.
