    Hi,
    I agree with you. Mariela is terrific, and the cabins were very nice, but
    the name is Sea Grape Plantation. I would recommend it. It's far enough
    away from the center of things so that you have quiet when you want it,
    but
    close enough to walk to everything.

    > I would suggest that you stay in West End. You would be close to all the
    bars and restaurants, and it is very easy to meet people while sharing
    diving stories.

    beautiful, and Mariela who is the manager is so Increadably helpful and
    nice.

    Emma who was an awesome instructor. The dive masters were great and tried
    to
    make sure we didn;t repeat the same dive sites so we were able to see a
    lot
    of the area.
