Has anyone been there recently? I am planning a trip for mid June. Any feedback would be appreciated.

Would the maintenance issues be the condition of their boats? I have read here, that they are not kept up well. Some have said that they recently replaced some of the their boats with better units.My LDS just moved their trips from BIBR to Fantasy Island. They sited maintenance issues and the condition of the house reef as the reason for the change.
They (the LDS) did not mention anything about the boats, it was poor shore diving (the term used was "war zone"), so so food, and general property maintenance problems. They also mentioned that FI was much more of a Motel 6 then BIBR.
It also could very well be a money issue as well. Unless FI increased their 07 rates by 50%, I can get the exact package the shop offers for 23% less by doing the booking myself. Someone did not do their homework on pricing the trip.
