Comments They advertise that they provide valet diving and while I don't have anything else to compare it to, the boat crew was very helpful and took care of our gear for us all week. The first day of diving, you leave out your BCD and Regs in a provided mesh bag which they then take to boat for you and set it up. All your other personal gear is up to you. At the end of the day, your BCD and Reg would be broken down, rinsed and ready for you the next day. On the boat, you are responsible for checking your our gear of course. Prior to diving, you sit on a seat on the stern and they bring your gear to you, you then stand up and off you go.
The dive sites were very good with a good mix of rays, sharks, large sized Caribbean fish and small macro items. One day we went over to Little Cayman and dove there and had lunch at the sister resort.
Overall, it was a great dive vacation.
The only bad note is that since they cater to divers, any non-diving significant others, report of a dead resort with little to do while the divers are out. The staff was great and I would definitely go again.
