Have you checked into Glover's Atoll Resort? http://www.glovers.com.bz/ Really roughing it (no elec or running water) but the diving and snorkeling are excellent. We had a blast there in 2003.

look into www.belizeadventurelodge.com. they are inside the barrier reef about 15 minutes from Belize City. it is about a 30-45 minute boat right to Turneffe. It is run by Hugh Parkey's Dive Connection, so the dive operation is the best in Belize.

You might want to follow up on a recent lead on the Belize Forum. Some went through http://www.amigosbelize.com/ and it included a non-resort stay on Turneffe. Keep us posted!

We were at Turneffe Island Lodge last week - it is fabulous!!! We dived with grey reef sharks, a pod of dolphins, a HUGE loggerhead turtle, lobters, crabs, a manta ray, eagle rays galore, moray eels, spotted morays, goliath grouper, and nurse sharks. It is worth every penny. And the food is outstanding! If you can make it work financially, go!

I just got back from a trip to Caye Caulker - we dove Turneffe north on March 5th, the sea had waves larger than I've ever been on. The vis wasn't that great and although we saw lots of fish, we didn't see much at all. It was over an hour boat ride in seas that were much larger than the boat - I was the only one on the boat that didn't get sick. I had read stories like Scuba Monster's, but we were just happy to be back at the dock <grin>.... Oh well, some dives are good, others are GREAT and you can never tell what you'll see under there...
