Comments	This was our third trip with aldora. It was several months after the island was hit by hurricanes Emily and Wilma. The Reef Club where we usually go was closed, so we stayed at Aldora Diver's Villa Aldora. Normally boat pick up is at the villa, but the hurricane took out the pier. They took us by van to the boat. It was a nice change to stay close to town. Kay and Greg, the resident hosts were incredibly helpful, friendly, and did everything under the sun to make the stay wonderful. The villa is comfortable, has working phones and wireless internet. At the last minute my husband was unable to come, so it was me and my two girls, ages 17 and 11. My younger diver is limited to 40 ft because of her age- no problem. Most of the time it was the three of us and our personal dive master. They would take us to whatever dive site we wanted, even when we kept requesting Yucab. They accomdated our every whim and desire. We look forward to our next visit with Aldora. They've become part of our family.
