Sam's tours in Palau were great, they have great staff. The diving there is also fantastic and as mentioned above the bar/restaurant is also cool.
One point for staying on the island... there are great restaurants! Indian, Thai, Palauan... really really good food reasonably priced.
As for hotels, I stayed at the west plaza malakal and it was nice., Nothing amazing but did the job, clean, big rooms, friendly helpful staff, good restaurant nearby run by a Canadian where they give guests 10% off.
PPR and Carolines are both approx 3 times more expensive. If oyu do a hotel search on the net for Palau you can find these out. I did a dive package from Guam including flights, transfers breakfasts, pickups etc and it was good value.
The other dive shops there seemed good but as I didn7t use them I can't compare the service, I did however meet the staff and they seemed helpful and friendly.
