Conch Club condos is a three minute bicycle ride from and is managed by
Little Cayman Beach Resort, where we ate lunch & dinner.  The condos
are individual townhouses facing the beach, each individually decorated and
containing every amenity (beach towels, dishwasher, cable TVs, stereos,
a/c, full kitchens) on perfectly groomed grounds.  Meals and the dive dock
are accessed by a 10 minute walk or a pleasant three minute bike ride (on
bikes provided by the resort) to the LCBR, where Chef Chubby prepared tasty
and plentiful meals.  The condos are much roomier, quieter and private than
the well-maintained hotel rooms at LCBR.  Both LCBR's and Conch Club
Divers' boats leave from the LCBR dock.  The CCD dive boat was spacious,
well equipped, comfortable and the dive crew was most helpful and
accomodating.  The briefings were complete and the selection of dive sites,
all on the awesome Bloody Bay wall, was diverse and interesting.  The
divemaster guides would lead those of us who wanted a tour on the best
features of each site while leaving those who preferred their own profile
to dive on their own.  Full valet diving so after each dive morning we just
rinsed and hung up our wet suits and fins, ate a tasty lunch at LCBR, and
bicycled back to our townhouse for a relaxing afternoon. The wall diving is
diverse, colorful, and easy.  A full selection of the usual Caribbean reef
fish and healthy corals. In the evenings, we biked back to the LCBR for
dinner and then went to the bar, where to hockey and NBA playoffs were on
the TV for a laid back evening, culminated by fun karaoke on Friday night. 
When Cayman Airways small plane broke down and couldn't get us back to
Grand Cayman for our flights home, LCBR's manager had us picked up from the
Little Cayman airstrip, comandeered one of the dive boats, had his staff
load 20 passengers and their luggage on the boat, and took us on a one hour
boat trip to the Brac, where he had the Cayman Airways jet hold its
departure to get us all to Grand Cayman to make our connections home.  It
was above and beyond the call of duty and shows how you're well cared for
at this top notch operation.
