We moved this year from the Makena Beach Resort (Maui Prince) to the Mana Kai Resort, on the border of Wailea and Kihei. The waters here are calmer and clearer; the inside reef is excellent for beginners and the outer reef makes for epic scooter diving! We are also mobile and can dive up to six different sites including Keawakapu Reef, Turtle Town, Five Graves, Wreck of the St. Anthony, Maluaka Reef, The Landing Craft and The Tank! Owned and operated by Diana & Steve Madaras from CATALINA SCUBA LUV. Check website for weekly "CRITTER OF THE WEEK REPORT". « less

Very friendly, made my girlfriend feel comfortable and at ease with her first dive, and gave us a fun private dive for her discovery. Knowledgeable, courteous, friendly, and worth the little extra not to screw around with a large group of strangers and guides who have too much on their plate. Will dive with them again if (when) we return... More

We have been out with Steve and Diane a few times now. It's always a great experience! They are very nice and the scooters are pretty fast. The whole family has been on the scooter dives and I can't wait for the next one (whenever that is). We have been on other scooter dives, but Scuba Luv Maui is by... More

We were originally were going to go with this other company (who were so incredibly rude from the very beginning) but the trip got cancelled due to weather. So we called around looking for another company that had an opening in the last two days we were in Maui. We were told by some locals that we should have called... More

I went with steve and diane on a shore scooter dive. Even if you dont have a lot of experience, Steve is a PADI course director and will make you feel very comfortable during your dive. He gave me pointers on how to use the scooter. They took me to a reef not normally frequented because you need a compass... More

The Team at Scuba Luv Maui is headed by owners Steve and Diana. We have now dived with them a total of 4 times. They have a great program for young divers which we had our 13 year old grand daughter go through. Steve took our "Isa" on her introductory dive and she is dedicated to becoming a certified Open...

It was easy for my husband and I to learn to use the scooter but for my 65 year old step mom it took a little more one on one time. Steve made her feel comfortable and in to time she was zooming away. The scooters were super fun. He tought us to use them inbetween our legs which was... More

My daughter took a 3-day scuba certification course and enjoyed it thoroughly. Steve and Diana were fully skilled and professional, and made the course a lot of fun for her as well. We would recommend Scuba Luv wholeheartedly. More

We had a great shore dive with Scuba Luv Maui shortly after arriving on the island. Pat was a great dive master with saintly patience with one of our divers who was on her first dive in the ocean and was very nervous. Pat is also a very good photographer and was able to document our dive with some very... More

ahhhh Maui a dream is coming true, diving in warm waters. Scuba Luv is located within the Makena Beach Golf resort, best part no need to haul around any gear. Though if you stay there this is a huge plus. Before we went on this trip I contacted many dive outfits in Maui, right from the beginning Diana was very... More
