Comments Steve and Matt are excellent DI's and boat Captain, Swinn, was outstanding. Di's very focused on your safety and diving enjoyment.

Resort is new, so all buildings clean and fresh. Best rooms are on the third floor; my room was on the first floor and privacy was compromised with flimsy curtains too small for the window. There was only a cold water faucet in my room's bathroom sink( why? ) yet the shower did have both hot and cold water.
Food was a disappointment at best; only ice berg lettuce and shredded carrots most days and bonita tuna and chicken.

Wish I had brought a 7mm suit for the deeper dives and night dive; I get cold easily.
Diving: 5 stars
General atmosphere and food at resort 3 stars. Many Brits there and seemed as if they were given alot more personal attention compared with us from the States.
