Comments This was our fifth visit to CocoView and first for our friends. Both newer divers, we wanted one of them to become more comfortable in the water and knew CocoView was the place to do that. She loved it, and was able to clear her recurring sinus problems easily with advise from the Nurse.
Everything was just as advertised, we had good diving and a great time on land as well. We did see a Hammerhead (briefly!) which was a treat, and tons of eagle rays.

The resort is getting back to normal but not quite there yet. Food was more limited than in the past, and served by helpers due to COVID restrictions. The night-time entertainment was curtailed also due to curfews across the island. However we had many card games in the evenings and had no complaints. The Monkey Lala's were as great as usual.

We stayed in a beach house down the road and enjoyed riding bikes back and forth to the resort.

Dive staff did an outstanding job. A concierge experience. This was my first time using Nitrox and we completed 18 dives during the week. As I get cold I wore my 5 MM and was happy and warm. Many other guests were diving in skins and complained of being cold, especially at the end of the week.
