Got my certification at Banarama as well as a couple of PADI adventure dives. Instructors were excellent; patient, thorough, fun. Whether you are an experienced diver or just getting your flippers wet, you won't be disappointed. Following one of our dives on the way back to the beach, we were overtaken by a pod of dolphins. The captain maneuvered the... more

Stayed with my husband in West Bay in June 09 for a week, and did my Advanced Open Water Diver course at Bananarama. The diving in the protected waters of Roatan Marine Park was wonderful every single time! Colorful, healthy coral everywhere, an abundance of fish of every conceivable color and shape, warm, clear water and gentle currents, short boat... more

The time we spent at the Bananarama beach resort was made very special by the Hosts and owners, Guy and Tina St. Louis and their excellent staff. This resort has it all, with a experienced and friendly dive shop crew, beach bar, entertainment throughout the week, plus a fine dining restaurant at the Island Pearl, which is also owned and... more

Bananarama is both a resort and dive shop, but my boyfriend and I stayed close by and just used the dive services. We knew we wanted to do a few dives while we were in Roatan for the week, but it was so fantastic we dove all week. Roatan has beautiful underwater sights, but the divemasters(Mal&Tommy) really contributed to our... more

In spite of the somewhat off-putting name, Bananarama is a very well run dive shop. My wife, son and I spent six days diving with Mal and Marco and had a wonderful time. Both DMs were outstanding at tailoring dives to the experience and preferences of the divers. We highly recommend them. more

I have been diving for ten years and can only recommend this operation as one of the top. I dove recently with them while stopping by on a cruise stop at the island. I arranged the pick up before hand with the owner and had a great experience. Driver was waiting to take the entire group and the dive staff... more

So I put the hotel review under Island Pearl which is on the Bananarama property. I was so pleased with the overall Bananarama staff and the Dive resort team in particular; I needed to review it separately. Diving was our primary reason for going to Roatan and for choosing Bananarama - the location seemed right, it appeared to have the... more

Great dive shop. Went there with my open water referal , looking to do my open water dives. Mal and Marco were very accomodating as far as their schedule and flexibility. They are very knowledgeable and professional (well sort of). Great place to go through for your dive experience. They took me out solo for a dive and then joined... more

We stayed in West Bay for two weeks in 3/08 with our two college age kids who had back-to-back spring breaks. We were scuba certified just over 2 years ago and now get in about one scuba trip a year. I had read Roatan was a top dive spot, so we decided to give it a try. It was a... more
