Could not get an ocean front room at Divi for December, weird, heh? Had to settle for a studio. Is the studio or the newly redone garden rooms the best choice? Also, does anyone know who the dive operators are at Divi. Thanks again, Mike & Cathy

We stayed at the Divi Flamingo in March, did the morning two tank boat dives with Divi Dive. They were awesome. Seems like we did all the reefs that were in great shape. Small Wall, Bonaventure, Red Slave, Salt Pier and many Northern Sites too. The boat board at the dive shop would have sign ups the night before, so you could tell which boats were on the full side. One boat would have a planned site and the other would be captain's choice (majority rule usually). Always back by 11:45. The dive shop is well stocked. If you dive with the short tanks just make sure you indicate that on the sign up board and they make sure you have it.

The studios are bigger and have a kitchenette and screened in porch area. I would go with the studio, if you can't get an ocean front. Skip the meal package, this gives you the option to hit many of the restaurants mentioned in the Dining thread and you can fix your own breakfasts and lunches, if you wish. Many restaurants are within a 5 minute walk out the north water-front gate and the Cultimara market is a 10-15 minute walk or a 3 minute drive. There is also a fresh fish place just south of Richard's restaurant (don't bother with Richard's) if you turn right out the driveway or parking lot.
