The Master cabin is superb and boasts prime location at the bow of the boat on the main deck, so has great forward-facing panoramic seaviews. The single and deluxe cabins also have large windows for an ocean view. The windows can easily be opened if you prefer the fresh sea air to air-conditioning. Only the lower deck budget cabins are windowless.
With spacious and modern facilities you may think you're still back at the resort than on a boat. You can identify unusual marine life sightings on the shaded upper deck, edit your photos or catch a movie in the air-conditioned saloon, or just grab a relaxing sun lounger on the huge top deck. Fresh towels are in your room and on the sundeck every day.
There's a selection of fine wines in the bar and delicious Thai and Western cuisine is served in the air conditioned lounge. Every meal has a selection if fish or seafood, vegetarian and meat based dishes, so this Burma dive cruise caters well for most dietary preferences and requirements.
The dive deck is also spacious and practical with separate fresh water rinse tanks for camera and dive gear. The attentive crew is always on hand to help you into and out of your equipment. Mermaid I also has tanks for enriched air nitrox diving. Get EANx qualified onboard if you don't have your license already!
