Comments Overall accommodations, service (diving and resort) and diving was above average. Food a cut above for all inclusive dive packages.

My wife and I had not been diving for a while, so we opted to take a refresher. We had a pool session with the instructor and then a dive with just the two of us. Very professionally done and worth the charge.

The dive operation had a few 100 tanks and when they discovered I was an air hog, they provide me a 100 putting me on a more equal footing with my wife/dive buddy and the others on the boat. I'm a big man at 6'4". More resorts should have this practice.
