Roger,
What type of unit are you renting? Photo Tours is affliated w/ Yellow Submarine & is well run operation.
The resort itself should have everthing you need. There is a staff that is there 7 days , but not 24/7. Their website is informative and will give you the layout of the individual homes. have a great time

My wife and I stayed there for a couple weeks last year. We had the unit with a full kitchen and it worked well for us. Plenty of room for dive gear, with an outside shower for rinsing. There is a dive site "The Cliff" that is quite near Hamlet Oasis and is a great dive. I've found frogfish near the entry point, which is directly behind Hamlet Villa #13.

Stayed there on both trips to Bonaire in the last 10 months. Rooms are big, AC is tolerable if you're not sunburned, pool is nice, grounds are nice, easy access to small beach for getting in and out. No view of ocean but can't beat the price. Our last stay, the kitchen didn't have a microwave, had to learn to cook again however microwave popcorn works just fine in a big pot on the stove.(Don't forget to take it out of the bag!)

They do have a few toasters & microwaves. Email ahead of time and ask Ellen.

I just stayed there (Capt Don's moved us there because they overbooked), in Cottage #3, and it was very nice and comfortable. If you need a good AC, the master bedroom in #3 has it. It was plenty big inside (two bedrooms, a living room and large table in the middle), a kitchen, 2 bathrooms. I liked it a lot. And Photo Tours is great if you just need a good, low-maintenance dive shop to get tanks and coordinate a guided dive if needed. It's certainly convenient to Hamlet Oasis. And Capt Don's bar is within walking distance!
