Comments [Presidente always great place to stay. Nice diving in front of hotel. Food wasn't as good as our last stay but we ate in town most of time. Aldora was very good, 120 steel tanks ,1 hr. bottom time most of time,went where we wanted to go after check out dive, went to extra effort to take us to barracuda reef. They were responsive to our request.Had such a good time we're going back in sept.
