SeaXplore Lodge and Dive Center

SeaXplore Lodge and Dive Center

4/5 Good
Please update listing on the site.
"The room has a bathroom, but no door which is fine for a single or couple, but we rented a 4 sleeper room and one twin bed was too close to the open bathroom for comfort. The person who would have had to sleep in the bed would not have appreciated the view any more than the person using the bathroom would have appreciated the audience. Also please change the listing to say, communal full kitchen. I was under the impression each room had its own full kitchen. It is a little misguiding. The kitchen and lounge are communal. The accommodation served our purposes though as we were just there for the diving and an overnight stay. The hosts were friendly and helpful and we will return, but now we know better what to expect.
