We would like an apartment or cottage without steps and easy access to the water. Does anyone have experience at the Aqua Viva Apartments? First time Bonair visitors planning two weeks in February.

I know the Divi Flamingo has ground floor studios with kitchens. Do you plan on snorkeling or diving?

Bonnie, I suggest a keyword search for wheelchair.

Aqua Viva Apartments is not on the water. They use the beach through Eden Beach Resort which is across the street and down a dirt road.

We stayed at the Aqua Viva last year, and that might work. The only problem that might you might have is once you get near the ocean - to get in the ocean you'd have to go though a beach, and I'm not sure how that would work with a wheel chair.

Bonnie, The Dive Inn has wheelchair access (to the apartments and water). We were there last October and there was a couple from Germany who needed the wheelchair access, so I know it worked OK for them. We are also going to be there Feb 7 to 23 and are again staying at the Dive Inn. They're great, so check out they're website: www.diveinnbonaire.com and look at their pictures.

Divi Flamingo has w/c access with kitchenettes in their studio/timeshare area and also has a 'drive-on' dive boat. Their dive piers have steps that I have seen being used by w/c people.

as Linnea says, Divi does have w/c access to both timehare (kitchettes) and regular rooms. They host numerous w/c diving groups throughout the year...the dive staff is well equipped and knowledgeable to provide assistance where necessary
