Comments I have been diving with Jeremy and Living Underwater annually for about 13 years. This operation is really luxury service and many extra's to please us. Jeremy picks up our gear from the hotel and sets it up each day for us. There are seat cushions, snacks, windbreaker jackets when needed, towels, and drinks every day. We go to dive sites according to the wishes of the group and always see special things. Each time I come here Jeremy offers something new, different, or interesting to do or see. Bottom time is long for those who can manage it and the extra value in minutes underwater more than makes up for prices being a bit higher than a cattle boat. This year I had some great friends along for the first time, and they said this was the best operation they had ever dived with. What led us to this dive company many years ago was the reputation for clear communication and integrity. This continues today.
We like Casa Mexicana Hotel because it is the best downtown, great staff and buffet everyday. It is also a great value. We like to watch Carnival there also. We like to go to the restaurants around downtown.
