  "Huracan Diving..."
  "I recently returned from a week of diving with Huracan Diving, on Long Caye, Belize. Having "digested" for a few weeks, I wanted to post a few thoughts about this unique dive operation. At the outset, I should say that we are great fans of Turneffe Island Resort, which is in the same general neig..."hborhood, give or take 20 miles. If you take the time to read my previous reviews of Turneffe, you will understand that the decision to go elsewhere was a tough one. The comparisons to Turneffe were inevitable. I should start by saying that Huracan is NOT for everyone. It doesn't have many of the traditional creature comforts of a dive resort. There is no pool, no nightlife (other than that which you create yourself), there's no fancy bar or anything close to it. What there is however, is comfortable, clean accommodations, an awesome (and small) staff, wonderful food, amazing diving and a unique experience that leaves you feeling like you are staying with friends who are thrilled to b...

• Itza Resort
  "Wonderful eco-resort in a serene setting"
  "Upon our arrival at this beautifully laid-out resort for a two-night stay. The friendly and informative staff provided us with a brief educational talk that made us appreciate the fact that we were there at all! Their power is solar, so no blow driers or televisions (Internet was available at the b..."ar/dining area). Lovely rooms, just be aware there are no windows, not even on the bathroom; just curtains on that side, and louvered windows on the other. The breeze was consistent so we never missed the AC. Great balconies with wonderful views of the sea. The food and service was great, staff very friendly, I would be happy to go again and spend a longer amount of time. Thank you so much for a pleasant stay! " More >

  "No Phone, NO AC, No Problem"
  "I am almost afraid to review this place, for fear of giving away an amazing Gem. I went on my first SCUBA here. While I have traveled extensively (a relative term), and snorkeled in many different places, this was my first time travelling since my SCUBA certification. I've always heard that Bel..."ize is amazing and bought a Groupon. While doing research for it, I came across Huracan diving. I'm almost sorry I went. I'm not sure anything will top this. Other than the water being a little cloudy (according to them), it was amazing. (visibility was 60-100 feet) If only that were the worst thing in the rest of our lives.... It's not the Ritz, but the sheer remoteness and beauty of the Island, friendliness of the staff, and of course the incredibly charming Emily more than made up for it. Ruth does an amazing job running the hotel/dive shop. Jerome was very helpful and patient with a new diver (and a self proclaimed Air-Hog)... No problem. Just switch to 100's and a little ... " More >
