Some people might say we're partial, we own a two bedroom unit there, but you might also want to check out Sand Dollar Condo resort. They have very complete studio, one, two and three bedroom units all with complete kitchens.

We loved the Lion's Dive. Great dive shop on site, small pool and man made beach, spacious condos-and a small operation-only 31 villas. Diving right off the dock...although there's a lot of that in Bonaire. If you need more specific info, feel free to e-mail me.

Gary, you didn't mention your price range. Some accommodations are less expensive than others. We have stayed at the Zale's condo at Sand$, and it was wonderful. Last time I stayed a couple of nights at Diver's Paradise, and it was a nice clean one bedroom, nice livingroom and dining table, and pretty well stocked kitchen. It isn't on the water, but right across from the Richter's. They use Buddy's as a dive op and they will deliver tanks to your door!

Another vote for the Dive Inn here.

Ditto for the Dive Inn. We stayed there last October and it was everything we needed. I like basic living, no crowds, has it's own house reef, very clean and the people are great. The dive shop is right next door and Babs will arrange a rental vehicle for you. I'm not into spending hundreds of dollars on a room that I'm not going to be in very much. We are booked again at the Dive Inn in Feb/04. It does certainly depend on your budget but the Dive Inn is a good bang for your buck. Check out their website www.diveinnbonaire.com

Trying to get a mental picture of the Dive Inn's location..Is it next to the Divi? I know we seen the place, just can't remember where exactly it is.

Almost eggsactly, there is a house between Divi and Dive Inn on the shore road to Kralendijk. You can hear and see their parrots when walking into town from Divi. And there are also many good restaurants within a short walking distance from either Divi or Dive Inn.

Lisa and Lorraine (and others), thank you for the information, particularly regarding Dive Inn. We've been unsuccessful in receiving a response from anyone at Dive Inn over the past two weeks. We've attempted contact two ways: 1) submitted a couple different reservation request web forms at www.diveinnbonaire.com and 2) sent an e-mail message to info@diveinnbonaire.com. In both methods, we explicitly requested a response and received no "bounced" replies so we are reasonably certain these messages were properly delivered. Perhaps there's a problem with the form on the web site and their e-mail (may be one in the same). Any suggestions before we go the phone route? Thank you in advance.
