I'm telling you, this place is stellar. Scuba Works is a top notch 5-Star Padi Diving Center, and this is coming from an admittedly high maintenance female who is used to the VIP life everywhere I go. From the moment I entered the shop and plopped down on their nice leather armchair, the staff was friendly, fun, and impressively knowledgeable. They answered my phone call at 7 am. They catered to my (albeit ridiculous) requests for color-coordinated scuba rental gear. Their rental equipment is in impeccable condition, as is their storage warehouse (which as a Medical Doctor is important to me for hygienic purposes). Their shop is well-stocked, organized, and pleasant to browse. I purchased a BCD as well as GoPro equipment from them, and I felt they genuinely care about you as a fellow diver rather than trying to push products. In fact, the owner encouraged me to dive and try out various rental gear first before I decide on a BCD. It's the small, intricate details that made the experience for me - like the sea-turtle scented plug-in, and the White Barn (Bath & Body Works) hand soap. If I'm engaging in a high-risk activity such as diving, I need trust and reassurance that my full-service shop is attentive to every single detail, and they were. The shop was able to provide me with the precise experiences I was seeking - a guided off-boat group dive one day, and equipment for off-shore solo diving another day. Moreover, as a solo female traveler not from the area I felt welcomed with open arms, immediately treated like family, and most importantly that the atmosphere and people increased my excitement to go diving even more. Ana - my guide - was superb in every way. The owner - Yvette - has mastered the perfect balance of incorporating the shop's highly professional scuba services with easy-going vacation vibes. It is evident the employees truly enjoy working there. I wish every PADI center were as lovely, clean, efficient, and wonderful as this one. - via
