Comments	We stayed at Wananavu Beach Resort for 12 days. The resort is terraced on a hillside (probably 6-8 stories high) so pretty much every room has a beautiful view out over the ocean. The down side of being built on a hill is that you have to walk up and down for everything. We happened to be in a bungalow that was up at the top. The dining area, gift shop and bar was about half way down the hill. The swimming pool is one level (maybe two stories) below that. Obviously that Dive Shop and boards are at the bottom. There are come bungalows that are all the way down at the beach level so if you don’t want the hike then request one of these. The bungalows were spacious and comfortable with AC and a fan. The dining area was beautiful. Nice tables and chairs with white linen table cloths, with nice dishes and glasses. There was seating inside and outside on a large porch/deck that over looked the ocean and was right above the pool. The meals were from a menu, there were some standard items everyday plus items that changed each day. As we were there for over a week we noticed that they started to repeat items. All of the food was excellent. All of the servers (all of the resort people in general) were very polite and friendly. The dive operation was fairly standard. There were two boards (one larger and nicer than the other) aluminium hull boats. Neither of them were large (8-10 divers max). Back roll off the side to get into the water. Both had dive latters on the back to enter the board. The ladders were fairly steep so getting in was not always the easiest, especially in rougher seas. We when out in the morning for a two-tank dive. Weather permitting we did an afternoon one tank dive. The value rating for this resort is not for the diving or the photography support but for the resort in general. The resort was a bit pricy but was very conformable, beautiful, with excellent food and amazing staff.

UW Photo Comments	There was no dedicated photo support. The boat hand one small rinse bucket for camera and no dedicated rinse tank for cameras at the Dive Shop. The staff was very careful and respectful of your camera but beyond that there was no support.
