Anyone here dive with JADS or SEAruba Fly 'n Dive ?

I KNOW many many people like them. When we approached Unique about a resort course/discover scuba for dd, not once but twice, they were, let's just say, less than helpful. Had a bad experience where our safety was in jeapordy a few years back, and though they are now owned by Unique, don't feel joyful about giving them our hard earned $$$.

We had a good experience with Aruba Watesports for dd's discover scuba, but they are a really small operation and dh does not like the inflatables they use.

Thanks everyone for your info. My family and I are going to Aruba for the first time in July and I already have my Open Water Certificate but didn't know who or where to go about diving when I am there. I can't wait now
