I am planning a vacation to Bonaire within the next couple of months. I have researched both Captain Dons and Buddy Dive Resorts. Other than price, I cannot determine which is the better choice. I will be traveling alone and am looking for uncomplicated diving, decent food, and an all around relaxing week away from the real world. Has anyone stayed at both resorts and if so, which would you recommend. Also, does anyone recommend a different resort?

Check out "Dive special" when you click the link. The breakfast is healthy and good and they will fix you a lunch for diving also. Or ask for the same thing without diving and book your air with whoever you want. This is the best cheap stay on bonaire bar none.

I moved this thread over here from Trip Reports, as this is an accommodations question.

Hi, Gregg! Where is the health club at Divi? It was not there last year when we were there...another nice new feature! Joe took advantage of the massages last year....said they were pretty good, too. I went for art classes at Janice Huckaby's place and he went to the massage parlor at the Divi (where we stay). The Divi has it all. Not a "fancy" place, but it is clean, nice, great location and good restaurants and of course, the great reef right there at your toes! We arrive this Saturday.....can't wait to get the tootsies in the Caribbean!! Carole

Sounds great, Gregg. I do know the rooms you are referring to. One more question....is the facility air conditioned? You know how hot it can get without a/c! LOL. One more....do you know the hours and how you gain access?? Thanks. CArole
