Comments	[None]This trip was two couples, diving husbands and non diving wives, with my 30 year old daughter as well. My dive buddy and I have been to Cozumel over 25 times each and have stayed at fine hotels, cheap hotels in town, condos on the south end of the island and several different All-Inclusive properties. This time we were at the Sunscape Sabor for the third time, primarily because of the price and Dive House having an office on the property. The hotel is OK, not a high end property (though the higher end Aura Secrets is right next door)...but we are there for the diving and the rooms are comfortable. A little tired in places and they tend to leave rollaway beds and other stuff laying around for a day or two. Food is ok but like any AI it gets old after a week. The last week of August was full occupancy but we were there then because my daughter is a teacher. Dive House did there usual solid job for us. We have used them and Scuba Du for years and like them both. The DH boats we were on were not crowded even though the island was hopping...they have large boats and do a good job of not packing them full. Special kudos the Raul for making sure we were together each day with a couple of great divers from Indiana. David and Raul Dive Masters were as always excellent, as were mates and captains. As usual, there was a mix of skill levels on the boats each day. DH states on their website that they fill boats based on experience but it rarely happens. Most dives were 8-10 divers and went in with 2 DM's....we just stayed away from the others for the first 25-30 minutes but always within easy sight of the DM. Then dove our full EAN profile...usually 60+ minutes, with no demands to surface. We always enjoy those last 20 minutes with the DM and just the few of us. We like Dive House and the staff and have always been treated well by them and had good dives. Several second dives were outstanding in 30-40 feet of water finding fabulous small critters including seahorses (2) and several Splendid Toad Fish. Currents were mostly light (for Cozumel anyway) and conditions were overall excellent.
