Hello all. I am making my third jaunt to LC soon. It is funny, I am not a creature of habit, but the diving and the whole setup are so good that I keep wanting to go back. I am thinking of trying Pirate's point this time rather than Little Cayman BR. I am limited to those two at this point as they are both well set up for travelers who want to have a private room without selling the farm and to be in an all inclusive.
Can someone explain how the dive op works at PP? I understand from some really old threads that there is not a dock right at the resort. Also, what do you perceive as the pros and cons of each? I have been to LCBR twice.
LCBR-
Pros-
Ease of access to diving, proximity of boat/drying shed.
3 dive a day packages
Nice place
Adequate if not fabulous food
Cons-
Sometimes issues of professionalism of a few of the dive staff. I wont get into the particulars, but I've seen it on two trips now. Overall, they run a very good and very safe operation. Most of the dive staff are polite, professional, friendly, helpful, have their attention on their divers, etc. Most. Had one issue last trip which should have been easy to handle. Instead I was given nothing but grief and I had to go to the resort manager who did handle it with one 30 second phone call.
Food didn't really work for me although it was good enough.
Single supplement though reasonable.
PP-keep in mind I have not been yet
Pros-
-Hear the food there is fabulous
-No single supp
-Heard nothing but praise for their dive staff
Cons-
-No on site dock
Thanks!
