Comments Good all inclusive option on Brac. We had breakfast and dinner included- buffet style for all meals. Vegetarian options can be ordered a la carte. Staff is wonderful and helpful. Tends towards large groups so can be quite noisy at peak times. Efficient dive operation that provided a boat for our large group. After some negotiations we were able to dive our own longer profiles. Initial plan was rigid time limits- our group does long dives! Tense first few days, then all was well. We didn't have lunch included so less pressure to get back on time for meal. Two morning dives included, add on for afternoon dives. Variety of sites, with best being trip out to Little Cayman for extra cost. Good value, not the best diving around but still fun and easy diving and a very pleasant resort for land time. No bugs, bikes provided, tennis courts, nice pool. People who did Island tour really enjoyed it.
