Comments This is my fourth or fifth stay at LCBR and they exceeded my past experiences. The resort has been completely remodeled. The rooms were new, flat screen tv's, new AC units, a 60 foot long drying rack behind the rooms. The food was top notch, staff was efficient and friendly. Lot of variety in the menu, lots of deserts every night.

Boats were not crowded and were well maintained. Captain and crew were professional and very helpful. The bar was well provisioned, the bartender, Mark, was very sociable and well skilled in the art of cocktails.

The corals seemed to have a little more algae on them and, while I didn't see any, I think I heard some talk about finding a lion fish. We saw turtles on every dive but it did seem that they were smaller than in past years. Compared to my trip to the Bahamas on the Aqua Cat though, Little Caymans reefs are faring far better than the reefs in the Bahamas.

The only bad thing about our trip was it was over too soon.
