Hi. Thank you for all the great info so far. I'm looking at the Divi. I like the fact that their studio rooms have full kitchens as one of my kids is a notoriously picky eater and it's easier all around to make her meals ourselves. However the divi's studio rooms are fully booked for march break. So my questions to you:

Bridget, I have stayed in the same room as you I think... several times in fact! All you have to do is request a mini-fridge from the front desk, and they'll bring one. I think the additional charge is $6.00 per night.

Maureen, to answer a few of your questions. We have been going to Bonaire for 10 years, 3 times with our grandson who was 3, 4 and 6 on the trips. We stayed in the Studios but know people who have been ocean front and loved it. The food at the Calabas is more to kids liking but the Chibi-Chibi is also very good. We never had any trouble getting him to eat. The beach is small but kid friendly and usually there are other children to play with. There are at least two common areas where we played games every evening. We have never had a mosquito problem but there are "no-see-ums" and Of seems to work for us. You will love the Divi.

Maureen, I second that. You will love it there.

One more comment, about the common lounge areas. There is a bar called the Flamingo's Nest, right above the oceanfront rooms, and it's all open air. It's not being used as an official "bar", except for the manager's party (someone jump in and correct me if I'm wrong). This would be a great place to play board games with the little ones and watch the sunset.

Kelly - you know, it never even occurred to us to ask about whether a minifridge could be rented! What a great idea - thanks for the tip :} Next time for sure :}

Bridget, it's just the right size for some lunch meat and some cold Pepsi and beer!
