It was a great week. The staff took great care of us, made sure we had delicious food, briefed us on diving, and took care of our diving gear (I never had to carry my own). They also did anything else we asked them to do. The coral at the dive locations was wonderful, and there were many of other things to do besides diving. The boat provided plenty of space to relax.
