This is a common question which when asked, will generate dozens of answers. Unfortunately most of the answers would just be represented of where the person who is giving the information prefers to stay. They are not necessarily bad answers, but they generally won’t be based on a widely or well-researched opinion. I will take a different approach in covering this because I feel the answer genuinely depends on the response ‘well, it depends on what you are looking for’. As such, if you do ask this question, it’s a good idea to indicate whether or not you’re looking to enjoy any of the following:
- Whether you are travelling with non-divers.
- Whether you are travelling with children.
- Whether you generally prefer hotels or private vacation homes (such as www.aquavillabonaire.com #cheapplugsorry).
- Oceanfront (or view), Marina or inland.
- Proximity to restaurants, downtown Kralendijk or whatever.
- Are you intending to do boat dives only?
- If you are shore diving, do you wish to stick to the ‘house reef’?
- Do you wish to dive Klein Bonaire?
- Pool, or not?
- Is there a dive shop/operator on site?
- Do you want a location that has a boat dive service?
- All inclusive.
- Price, of course.
The good news is that Bonaire can service whatever your preferences are.
