Hello, with my girl'nd thinking about a dive holiday in Bonaire next August... is a comfortable period? any hint? how about this Buddy Dive Resort?

I have only been once, but really enjoyed my stay at Buddy Dive Resort. I'm sure there are cheaper places to stay, but here's why I liked Buddy Dive. My room was about 30 yards from the Caribbean, just behind their nice bar and pool. I woke up every morning to the beautiful sunrise over the sea. The view from my room (which I have requested again), was marvelous. Very nice house reef which was about a 30 second walk from my room. Very friendly and helpful staff. Daily boat dives (if I chose to do so) were included in my package. Dive masters were good and we got some nice dives in (Klein and others). Drive through tank refill extremely convenient and open around the clock. Very good included breakfast overlooking the House Reef; made-to-order omelettes, fruit and pastry bar, bacon, sausage, etc. Very nice bar, etc.

I'll eventually branch out and try other accommodations. But I was very happy with my stay there.

Hi,
Going to Bonaire June 7 thru the 21st. Usually stay at the Black Durgon, which is down the street from Buddy Dive. Only problem we have is the Black Durgon is closed for renovations and were staying at the Golden Reef, off the water. You might want to try the Black Durgon someday. Very laid back, basic, no frills, but the greatest bunch of divers and cheap. The Small Wall is 30 feet from your room.
Hope you have a great time, the reefs are great. Don't forget the Small Wall and there is some great snorkeling across the street from the airport, that's right, small little area, sandy, drive your truck onto. Really pretty fish, very shallow.

I might have to try there one of these times. I dove Small Wall last trip as a boat dive from one of Buddy's boats, nice little dive. Thanks for the info.

You mean sunset don't you? Buddy is on the lee side of the island and faces west.
