The Daranee's service encapsulates all that is best about Thai culture. Our customers repeatedly tell us that the crew is the friendliest around, always ready with a smile and a joke, and always available when help is required.
Being a Thai-owned boat, the Thai food on board is delicious and authentic and is served buffet style on the upper deck saloon area, where the crew sits and chats with their guests after a busy day's diving.
Daranee was recently re-fitted with larger cabins. The cabin size, together with the large sliding windows, lend a light and airy feel. You can have the cabin windows open if you like the fresh sea air, or you can close the windows and turn up the air conditioning to really cool down.
Khun Bangrern, the captain on board the twin-engined Daranee, is one of the best in Thai liveaboards. He'll spin the boat just at the right moment - no surface swims required on this cruise.
