Love Marble Hill Farms, truly a relaxing time. I hate leaving the country only to find resorts and restaurants that inspire to be like america. Marble hill really allows you to feel the Island and be on Island time. The accomadations are comfortable and the property is beautiful from the gardens to the top of the hill "Crow's Nest" Restaurant. Great Pizza and even better drinks. Bryan and Rebekah took very good care of us. We really enjoyed the time spent there and as much as I dislike returning to a destination when there are so many places to see, This was my second trip to Marble Hill and I will be returning. We were there in the rainy season and experienced several great days of sun and one day of the greatest rainstorm I have ever seen really cool seeing that on the ocen front.
We also can not mention Marble Hill without mentioning the extraordinary Tropical Island Divers, Pol and Ingrad made our stay truly great by taking the time to not only certify two divers for open water, but also take us on some truly amazing dives. Spearfishing Lion fish to helping my wife overcome her fear of the ocean and snorkel, Pol and Ingrad were there the entire time. Can not wait to get back and take the advanced water with them. What better place to get your C-Card.
This was a really affordable trip as well, We flew american on miles so the flight was free by getting an AA credit card. We then took a chartered van to the ferry, Very scary ride compared to driving in america, but well worth it. However I recommend taking a small plane either TACA or SOSA and soon to be another very afordable carrier. If not flying on miles however take continental for an easy trip straight to the island. We were able to make the ferry on the charter van but it was very close and I would not recommend it. We took a plane back to San Pedro on the return trip about $80 each. I am hoping to add some pictures as well but if it does not work check out facebook, Tropical Island Divers - Crows Nest or Marble Hill Farms page.
