Overall Rating

The Villas at Banyan Bay had spacious, beautiful facilities and friendly
service--top-notch.  Bottom Time divers was safe and dependable, and our
divemaster Rudy was friendly, attentive and safe.  Rudy's the best.  He
pointed out things we never would have noticed, especially on the night
dive.  Visibility was only average or slightly above, but the diving was
outstanding.  We swam with nurse sharks, saw turtles and two large spotted
eagle rays, barracudas, etc.  Visit Shark-Ray Alley, where you can snorkel
with nurse sharks and sting rays.  The people on Ambergris Caye were quite
friendly, and we felt safe.  Some kids did try to sell us necklaces and
other things, but they weren't pushy.  For at least a day or two, rent a
golf cart for transportation.  Our trip to the mainland for the jungle
river cruise was interesting (we saw manatees) but overpriced, and the boat
trip to the mainland was too long and rough.  By the time we arrived, I was
seasick.  The food in Ambergris Caye was decent, and our favorite was a
small place called Papi's Diner.  We loved Amergris Caye, Banyan Bay and
Bottom Time, and hope to try this again.
