Room: We were very conveniently placed in the building right next to the Great House. We were furnished with a drinking water supply, turn-down service, towel service, etc. which was all good. Rooms were clean. Service: All the food service workers and tour guides knew our names and called us by our names regularly. The front office was eager to please with any requests and they were very friendly. Food: The food was outstanding. Adam and Laurie are vegans and special diets were planned in advance for them at every meal. Cynthia is a vegatarian and always had appropriate options. The wait staff did not need to be reminded of these special dietary needs; they explained what had been prepared without prompting. Food quantities were more than adequate. Meal times were well suited to the life of guests at the resort. Diving: The diving was unremarkable during our stay. We went to Belize in hopes of seeing whale sharks which often appear in April, May, and June. This year they never showed up for that three month period until just after we returned to the states. Meanwhile, we were pleased to see eagle rays, sting rays, scorpion fish, lion fish, etc. which frequent this reef system. The dive boats were good and the dive staff did a fine job of setting up gear and assisting divers.
