Sorry I am being ironic... but I think I get it now, can we have two different resorts : mine and Lorenzoid's that will be opposite side of the same island.
In Lorenzoid Sadie's dive resort each diver will first have to pay and additional carbon fee if they want to take a motorized dive boat, otherwise there are paddles too.
Sadie's resort parasistic gringo dive guides will endeavour not showing anything because many of the critters are concealed sometimes beneath a sea cucumber that would need a stick to reveal, and the guides, as knights of the holy sea cucumber would not permit disturbing it at any times. I can get you a list of those guides who will be happy to hide their ignorance under a holier than thou attitude, they're aplenty in Labuan Bajo and all those areas where backpackers go diving..
Those guides will receive a mandatory 15% tip on everything, directly leveed at check in. NO local guides will be accepted since they do not know about ecosomethingism and might have not heard about Paul Watson.
Any diver coming out of the water will be frowned at because anyway, as you know, divers do more bad to the underwater world than good, the exception will be for divers paying for planting coral on a deserted sandy bottom 5m deep.
The food will be rudimentary but supposed to be sustainable, because Lorenzoid Sadie's resort divers are not there to enjoy gourmet food.
At the end of the stay, all divers will be billed 30USD for a Tshirt printed "don't poke the sea cucumber" and a OK sign.
You'll get a discount for each melanomae caught as a proof you didn't use much use tan lotion that could have hurt the corals.
Sadie's dive resort will encourage youngsters to put a very positive review on Tripadvisor or not to post on the internet.
In my own Thelema resort, I would just like the best dive guides who really know where to find the critters thanks to their understanding of the biotops and where to look at, because they know of instance that removing a sea cucumber will not threaten the balance of the whoel ecology. I have two or three names of guides Ajiex, Ben and Dennis to cite here, one of whom will be dedicated to nudibranches only. Hence the Thelema resort will accomodate only three divers at a time, until you find more guides for each guest.
Thelema resort will be accomodating guests who will be discussing other topics than dive stories at dinner time (I'm thinking about the possibility of guests passing a quiz on international news, science, history and arts before they confirm their booking).
Because life should be a feast, and because Thelema educated guest are able to enjoy multiple pleasures on teh same period, the dinners will be fantastic at Thelema resort with all sorts of food imaginatively cooked by a japanese cook taught at french restaurants, only organic or biodynamic wines should be served (this will be the only organic restriction in the resort). Industrial and cheap beer will be prohibited.
Tank shirts will be prohibited at dinner time, because Thelema guests think in general that showing their sweaty or hairy underarms views and aromas are not compatible with fine dining.
Cooking or photo workshops will be organized for free as the chef or the inhouse photographer have nothing more interesting to do than entertain the non divers.
Thelema is nicely eco responsible but doesn't feel the need for bragging it around.nor take it as an excuse of being eco something for overcharging while downgrading service.
Since tipping is always a question, tips are not allowed in Thelema resort as staff is comfortably paid.
Thelema doesn't care about review sites on the Internet, since it works with goodmouthing.
Sorry if I hijacked somehow your thread with a silly reply.
On a serious mode, I do appreciate you questioning about customer expectancies.
As for me, you'll find some of the things I am looking for in Thelema description, you'll find also a little truth in Sadie's resort and REAL experience that happened to me probably others too.
