Comments We were disappointed with our group trip to Divi dive resort. The dive operation was bare bones help, they make you carry all your dive gear including weights on and off the boat each day. Our group used the same boat all week but they refused our request to leave the weights on the boat. The dive masters did very little, some never showed you anything underwater and there was no help getting on or off the boat or with tank setup. This type of non-concierge diving is fine for budget or new divers but our group would have been appreciated. The rooms were dark and dirty but at least there was a view and a nice patio. The food was ok, we had a couple of nice group dinners and the beach bar was pleasant. Because of the pretty bad dive operation we would never return.
