Very nice accommodations. Staff friendly and efficient. Decent simple lunch at the beach bar after diving. Menus at other resort restaurants not very exciting. Resort is about 20-30 minute walk from town. Two good restaurants very close, Old Inn (Indonesian) and Richards. Enjoyed both twice. Also enjoyed the Garden Cafe (Lebanese) in town. Boats limited to 12 divers. They added additional boats as needed. Boat dives very reasonably priced. Divemasters friendly and helpful. Mostly went to Klein, perhaps because it was so close. House reef was decent. My computer died on my first dive and the dive shop loaned me one. I ended up buying a simple Suunto at the Caribe Inn for $200. Both DCE flights to/from Curacao were on time. |
