Just as an fyi there is a third liveaboard in Truk now. I have not been on it so I have no idea on quality, but it is another option.

The Blue Lagoon Resort has the larger grounds, better ambiance, and a small grocery mini-market. Truk Stop Hotel Dive-ops had from 2008 to January 2015, the best logistics for tech diving/mixed gas support, with trained & experienced guides in Advanced Nitrox/Decompression Procedures who would actually take you through the deeper wrecks like the San Francisco Maru if you were Tech Wreck Overhead Certified. Blue Lagoon Dive-ops is the more historic of the two, run by Gradvin Aisek, son of the great Kimiuo Aisek. Both have fair restaurants, Truk Stop having the best & biggest pizza (order it "easy on the cheese" though!) in all of Micronesia.Has any one stayed at both Blue Lagoon and the Truk Stop? A comparison was be great.
I know people from Kwajalein usually stay at the Truk Stop. There was also a group recently who got a great deal on a last minute booking on the Odyssey. Both places were highly recommended.
