Comments The diving was excellent - beautiful corals, schooling fish, groupers everywhere, sharks, rays, and turtles on virtually every dive, great little critters. The dive staff was also excellent - let us follow our own profile within some common sense restrictions - and gave great briefings before each dive. We could follow the reef on our own or follow along with the dive guide if we wanted. Visibility was great on all dives but one when the divers on the boat talked the dive guides into going to a site that was stirred up after a storm before it was really practical to visit - they warned the boat ahead of time on that one. Photography was great - really, the most beautiful reef in the Caribbean in my humble opinion.
The resort has nice rooms; the staff was accommodating and pleasant. This was our third visit and the only comment I would make that was at all negative was that the food at the resort was not quite as good as on the previous visits. It was still good but not outstanding - take that for what it is worth. Overall, a great place to go and still my favorite spot.
