I don't have a ton of experience staying at dive resorts (or diving, for that matter), but I can't imagine it gets much better than Compass Point/Ocean Frontiers. We stayed in a one bedroom condo. It was roomy enough for two (four could stay, but that would be too crowded for my taste), had the basic necessities of a self-catering condo and a view to die for. All units in the resort have ocean front balconies. When I wasn't diving, I was parked on the balcony staring at the beautiful carribean sea. The beach in front of the resort was not the greatest, but several public beach options were nearby (not that we had time for that). Dining choices were more limited than the "busy" side of the island, but there were certainly more than enough for us since we do quite a bit of eating in (there was a grocery store about 5 minutes away that was small, but had the basics).
The on-site dive operator was first class. They set up your gear, rinsed it and stored it. Want to do a shore dive? No problem, just grab your gear out of their locker and proceed to one of the numerous shore diving spots on the island (you will need to rent a car if you stay here - drive on the left!). The staff was super friendly and made things fun. Diving on the east end of the island offered more dive sites (both wall and reef) than you could visit in weeks.
The east end is the quiet side of the island. We took a drive to 7MB and Georgetown and we were so glad not to be staying over there. It may as well been Florida.
