VIP ONE - 5* Class Liveaboard
Enjoy a week of luxury accommodation while
diving the most exciting dive sites and wrecks of the Northern Red
Sea. VIP One is a truly five star vessel. It has a very impressive
client list, ranging from world renowned underwater cameramen to
music industry figures. VIP One is a state
of the art, luxury motor yacht which comfortably accommodates 16
passengers in its 8 spacious, en-suite and air conditioned, double
cabins.
This luxury motor yacht is built to offer
the best in comfort and safety and to provide exceptionally first
class service. It is a spacious 29.5 meters in length, the interior
is fully air-conditioned with large double cabins complete with
private en-suite bathroom and shower, large saloon, dining room, bar
and a sundeck equipped with a BBQ. VIP One can comfortably
accommodate 16 people in 8 spacious cabins.
The entire interior of the boat is air
conditioned meaning that the in-house saloon, dining room and bar
remain comfortably cool all day.
The entire crew of VIP One are dedicated
to making your stay an unforgettable one.
VIP One was built with comfort and luxury
in mind. With attention to the smaller details, every effort has
been made to ensure that your stay with us will be first class in
every sense of the word. Full air conditioning, an adjustable piped
sound system and a silent generator are many of the features which
have been added to ensure your relaxation.
With great diving on a daily basis your
safari will be further enhanced with superb dining. Our chef has
been hand picked by the owner, Mr Alain Sobol, for his superb
catering skills. The menu is wide and varied and the chef is more
than happy to prepare individual meals for those with specific
dietary requirements.
When not enjoying one of the three
delicious daily meals or relaxing on deck, guests are able to enjoy
either of the two fully stocked on board bars.
Following numerous requests for rebreather
liveaboard trips, we are happy to announce that VIP One is now
rebreather friendly, with all the facilities on board to cater for
rebreather divers, including a booster pump, allowing us to fill
oxygen tanks to 200 bar. Rental units (Poseidon, Evolution Plus,
Inspiration, Megalodon and Sentinel) are available if you want to
travel light and not be weighed down with your personal unit. Also,
special “rebreather only” trips and trimix rebreather trips are
being scheduled as we speak. If you have a group of 10 rebreather
divers why not contact us and book your own private trip, we can
open up a safari especially for you (subject to the boats
availability). |
