Comments Great trip at Reef Divers new resort on South Caicos. Of course Reef Divers runs a great operation. They have brought over 2 of their dive boats from Little Cayman. Dive shop is still being built so the dive shop is very limited. The only draw back is that the wind was blowing hard out of the east and East Bay Resort faces that direction. Made for a hard time getting on and off the boat but the crew was excellent in helping everyone. Didn’t see any real problems, just a couple of banged shins.

Rooms were beautiful. Much better than any other place we’ve stayed. Ocean view suite had 1 1/2 baths, large bedroom, full kitchen,dishwasher, and washer and dryer.

Food is what you would expect with reef divers. Large buffet style and excellent.

Beautiful infinity pool with hot tub and swim up bar.

Staff was very friendly and helpful.
