Our first visit was in 1996, when the damage from Luis was still very evident. We'd been to Grand Cayman and Jamaica and wanted a different Caribbean experience. Stayed at BelAir but they were dredging to replenish the damaged beach, so we loaded up our two elementary aged kids and explored all the different beaches. Fell in love with the island so we walked next door and bought a timeshare at Divi before we left, despite all the damage still to be repaired at the resort. Have loved returning almost every year, as the kids got older and brought friends and then a husband, and now a granddaughter.
