My husband and I have now been on the Atoll 3 times.The first time we had booked a week on the boat and a week on one of the Islands. THe day we were due to change over the Captain called us to his cabin and told us that our Island was over booked . He said we could stay on the boat for a further week or we could still go to the Island. 2 other couples were also made the same offer. We now think the boat was underbooked and she cannot sail with too few passengers. Ourselves and one other couple decided to stay on (if we had booked 2 weeks we would have paid more) On the second night of our second week a beautiful cake was brought to our table, with welcome back on it and when we went to our cabin, the beds had all been decorated with flowers and garlands. THe other couple also had theirs done, in a different design to ours.I cannot fault ...

We have just returned from an amazing holiday that was a week on the Atoll Explorer and a week on Biyadhoo. (12/8/07to 27/8/07) The previous review is very true today.
We booked through Voyages Jules Verne on their internet site.The whole holiday cost £3,390 for the two of us.
We were transfered by speedboat to the Atoll Explorer and were welcomed with a cocktail and a brief outline of the boat and itinery for the North Ari Atoll trip. The boat is perfect for both serious divers and those who snorkel or just want a relaxing holiday in the most photographic locations. It is a liveaboard dive boat.

The staff from the Captain down to ...
Advantages: Central location, clean Disadvantages: Food, rooms
We stayed at this hotel in London a little over a month ago now for two nights, we chose this hotel mainly because of the central location and because it was only a ten minuite walk from the show we had booked to go too.
Check in was very quick - About ten minuites and the staff at the reception seemed very friendly.
My first thoughts on the hotel was that it looked really clean and that it was nicely decorated and it looked modern.
I was a little dissapointed with our room as it was very small and basic, our room had a double bed, tea and coffee making facilities, a tv with satellite and a small, basic en suite bathroom with a shower.
The views from our room very very poor - A block of offices which made our room dark as they were so close.
The hotel has two bars and two resturaunts, the bars were again nicely decorated ...
