While we did not stay at Riding Rock (its lodging was already full by the time we went looking for accommodations), we would very much like to put in a good word regarding their dive operation, which we did use throughout our stay on the island.

The dive staff was friendly, but highly professional and organized. We were treated like good friends, but also as guests expecting a safe, enjoyable, professionally guided dive trip. The equipment we rented was well cared for and in good shape. And, the staff did a terrific job of managing trips that made experienced and novice divers alike feel accommodated.

On a side note: We enjoyed a few evenings in the Riding Rock's bar, which is governed by the very capable Peaches. She makes a mean anything, but try the Pina Colada and the Bahamian Breeze. They're her specialties!

My wife and I just stayed at Riding Rock for two weeks of diving. This place treats you like family (in a good way). The staff was great and eager to help make our stay better in any way they could. The dive staff is professional, fun and extremely experienced. Diving is amazing. Three dives a day. Leave your gear on the boat. I could not have been easier or more enjoyable.

Traveled to Riding Rock with a great group of divers from the Madison, Milwaukee and Green Bay area during the period of Jan 8th to 15th. The diving was excellent. We even had an encounter with a whale shark. WOW! The dive masters and boat captain provided wonderful service. Once we loaded our gear on the first day, we didn't have do anything except get on the boat each day. The staff at the Riding Rock Inn were friendly and prepared good meals, provided good hospitality and made you feel right at home. The lodging was not fancy, but it was clean. Water pressure for the shower was lacking, but we always had hot water, contrary to other reviews that I read.

The Diving is spectacular - I think it is the best diving in the Caribbean. My friends and I have gone back over and over again over the past 20 years.

The hotel is right on a beautiful beach. The Hotel rooms are fine. The service is excellent.
