Comments There has been a recent addition to the hotel and these rooms are much nicer than the other rooms. They are the 300's and all are beach front with nice balconies overlooking the lagoon. We were lucky and stayed in one of the new rooms, which are large and have a great bathroom.

The meals are at scheduled times during the day and there is a variety of food. My wife doesn't like fish and they accommodated her every meal with other foods. The desserts were incredible.

The dive shop is small, so I would suggest bringing everything that you need (i.e. film, batteries, lights, etc.). The staff was great and very professional. They have 4 boats and made sure to balance the 4 boats so that no boat was crowded. They also tried to keep you on the same boat all week with the same staff so you could form a bond with the staff. They run 3 dives daily - 2 in the morning and an afternoon dive. Night dives are available if enough people are interested (usually 4).

Small spa located across the street from resort. Is is used by all resorts on the island, so make reservations in advance of trip as it books up quickly.

Not a lot to do on the island, but the resort does a great job of
putting on parties, events, tours of island, etc. Since the resort is small, the staff is willing to go the extra mile to make you happy.
