We are longtime advanced divers and reserved this trip through PADI. I will echo the other reviews about how lovely the property is, how warm the staff are, how stunning the diving is, how good the food in the restaurant is (though not exactly cheap). This place was perfect for a week of diving. We rented the two bedroom house, which was just charming, with two bedrooms with two queen beds and a nice bathroom in each, and a central living room with full kitchen, and beachfront patio table with a view and lounge chairs on the beach. Great coffee and a full drip coffee maker for the morning. Staff will arrange a driver to take you to the market for supplies for the kitchen. Decorating is simple and light filled. Everything was very clean, with daily maid service. Our casita was the farthest from the restaurant, but still plenty close, with a private beach on the other (far) side. All of the 10 casitas are well situated, so don’t worry too much about which one you get. We generally did two dives a day, up to 4 as weather allowed, including an incredible night dive. When the wind picked up, they just took us over to the other side of the island by van and we dove from there. Two of us rented decent equipment. Divemasters were friendly and knowledgeable, and put up with “that guy” well (you know the one: boastful mansplainer, ignores divemaster and basic safe diving limits, chases the wildlife, shoves his camera at every find, and otherwise interferes with other people’s dive enjoyment— don't be that guy). This is the quiet side of the island, so not a lot to do if you don’t dive. Staying in the hotel rooms above the dive shop on the main island would be a fine budget option, but you’d miss out on the ocean view and the charm of being on the island. I’m allergic to bug bites, so they are obvious in me, and got 12 during the whole week. My companions either didn’t get any or didn’t notice them, even being lax with bug spray. I would 100% come back to Barefoot Cay.
