The Solitude One is an ex-merchant vessel which has been redesigned as a stylish liveaboard. She can accommodate up to 22 guests in 10 cabins - 1 quad, twins and doubles, all of which have ensuites and air-conditioning. The lounge has sofas and armchairs available and this is also a semi-alfresco dining area where you will enjoy your buffet style meals. There is also a separate outdoor seating area and sundeck with loungers, ideal for relaxing between dives. The jacuzzi is made of stylish wood and makes a very enjoyable way to finish you days diving. The dive deck is spacious with seating and individual gear bins, a dedicated diving dhoni and a seperate camera room where you can maintain your equipment and edit your photos. The Philippines has good diving all year round and the warm, clear waters mean that every dive is a joy. Some sites like Tubbataha are seasonal, but they are worth the wait, with spectacular biodiversity hidden beneath the surface including dolphins, whale sharks and mantas.
