The 5 days we spent with ReefCI were incredible. If it were not for the staff (specifically Tracy Allen) I don't think my wife would have ever gotten certified to dive. The water was warm and clear, the food was tasty and plentiful, and the staff was wonderful. I am recomending ReefCI to all my friends!

Wow! what an experience. We were a mature couple - one advanced diver and one brand new one - scared and nervous!!!!! I needed to complete the open water section of the course. Polly picked us up and we arrived at the jetty with the rest of our gang for the week. We introduced ourselves and off we wooshed for... More

I wish there was a 3 ½ star rating available, because that is how my husband and I would actually rate ReefCI. We had a good time, but ReefCI needs improvement. The island itself is lovely, from the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets, balmy afternoons, and starry nights. The main building and cabanas are picturesque. Being on a remote island with... More

If you judge the success of a holiday by the feelings that you have at the start, middle and end of your experience then time spent at Tom Owen's Island with the ReefCI team will rate extremely highly and must be at the top of your "things to do" list. My daughter and I felt comfortable from the minute that... More

We booked a dive trip with ReefCI based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews. The weather while we were there in March interfered with daily diving but other factors contributed to a rather mixed experience. -Poor diving visibility (might have something to do with the weather) -Corals generally brown -Diversity of fish is low, and volume is quite small compared to...

My time with ReefCI in Belize was the greatest experience of my life! I’m so glad to have had the opportunity! When I arrived at the island it was even better than I could have imagined. I stayed in a cabana which was perfect for one person. I did not mind at all not having a washroom or shower in... More

We went there in April/May 2011. As someone's who's accustomed to expeditions / sketchy trips round the world, I quite like rustic places and a bit of adventure. Reefci claims to be a diving holiday (not an expeditions), organised by English speaking people, and website made you want to believe its a good company to go with. It is, I... More

Maybe I am just getting jaded but after booking two weeks because of glowing TripAdvisor reviews I was disappointed with the diving. It was great to be the only divers around but the reef was a dull brown colour and there were relatively few reef fish. In 13 dives I saw lots of lobsters out and about, one moray, one... More

It is difficult to put into words just how wonderful my experience with ReefCI was. The fact that I miss it terribly, should really sum it up! My trip was for two weeks, but really it was not enough. Like many who guests when I was there, you end up longing for more. It is a natural phenomenon! One guest... More

These folks know their stuff. We had great time and truly got to experience some unique sightings, whale sharks and eagle rays just examples. Isolated but quite civilized, rustic, comfortable and great cooks! Diving experience par excel-lance with a great conservation goal as well.
