A big, comfortable bed is my primary concern. No substandard mattrasses. Secondly, I like a nice, big swimming pool, and being near a good beach. I am told that there is a place called Green Bay, and that it is one of the best beaches.

Can you give me suggestions? I will be going in mid June. I am 47, but travelling with a married couple who are 26. Hence, our tastes may differ a bit, but I am willing to compromise. They’re not really concerned with great nightlife or hotel activities. They are very independent and adventuresome.

Lastly, we’d like to take a “quickie” scuba diving course. I realize scuba diving should be considered a skill that must be learned, but considering 100% of the diving we would do would be between 15-25 feet below surface, in crystal clear conditions, I don’t feel the need to take a long, studious course. I did that in college (but never took certification).
