Comments	Structures set tastefully back from waters edge, behind foliage, but still guests were a few from beach. Beautifull vegetated grounds. Rooms stocked with unlimited glass bottles of water, which was produced by resort desalination. Plenti of activities available for the non diver. Snorkeling, Dolphin, Manta & Turtle monitoring. Movie nites. Cultural tours. Bike rentals. Cooking demonstrations. Yoga AMs, spa, tailor. Marine biologist lectures. Buffet meals offered. Small town nearby with additional stares & restaurants. Good snorkeling just off beach. Beach was white sugar and not crowded". Dive Center with professional staff, reasonable priced 2 tank dive, nice dive boat. Great place to learn to dive, Certify nitrox. Dives mostly walls. Usually60’ - 70’ max.
