I have booked our first trip to Bonaire for July. Need to decide on where to stay. So far looking at Sand Dollar, Capt. Don's and Divi (Buddy is full)

JD - I'm sure you're aware but just in case you're not - they were talking about the stairs at the resort itself, not the dive entry/exit.

Oh, well, no, I missed that. I guess my slippery steps paranoia got the better of me. I assumed they were exit steps. Now I feel silly.........

JD - it seems every flooring surface is tile pretty much everywhere on Bonaire, which, when it gets wet, is slippery as *@!!. Be extra careful, and don't go barefoot (as I did walking thru the restaurant) when you're trying to navigate wet tile flooring. Bad move, really, really bad move on my part.

We are familiar with the Sand Dollar set up. Sand dollar has lower level condos as well as second floor condos. all are accessible from exterior individual entrances. first floor units have concrete sidewalks and second floor units have wide steps and wooden walkways.

JD, I have been staying with the Divi for my last 3 trips to Bonaire and I wouldn't go anywhere else.

I just got back from Sand Dollar and the stay was excellent was in B7 a 2 bedroom unit it had a large living room with a/c the 2 bedrooms had individual a/c a full kitchen with large fridge oven stovetop microwave 2 bathrooms,utensils,dishes, 2 tvs, a large screened patio. It was $1200 pp for 2 people for a week with truck and unlimited nitrox from BDA. Very easy entry exit from the property with parking right next to the unit. The dive shop and restaurant are a 30 second walk away. Breakfast was included in the stay at the Reef restaurant and was excellent. Buffet with made to order omelletes, pastries,french toast ,fresh fruits,cereals, a variety of breads,bagels,coffee,and a good selection of teas. The Bari is the house reef and it is excellent.

Thank you for the comments. I have reserved a condo at Sand Dollar and purchased BSDME, so now I'll start planning some dive sites and other trip details.
