After reading all the negative reviews I was alittle skeptical about how the trip and resort would be. Bed bugs, mosquitos, dirty bathroom. As it turns out I had a very nice trip.. The redeye from Houston getting in at 0545 was kinda tough. Check in was not the smoothest however the staff was very pleasant. It was a rough... more

Good: the dive shop, the diving, the divemasters Bad: the check in procedure, restaurant service, smelly bathrooms We stayed with a group of 17 divers. Arriving on the red-eye from Houston is a bad idea. Tired travelers checking in at 6am with no rooms available and no place to securely store luggage. Our group hung out in the heat and... more

After reading the negative reviews, I was a bit nervous that our favorite dive resort had gone downhill since our last stay in 2006, but we were very pleased with our recent stay. Unit #108 is the best 2 bedroom, 3 bath apartment--close to the dive pier, Bella Vista restaurant, and drive thru fill station, with the best 2nd and... more

I traveled alone, and I am so glad I went to Buddy Dive for my first trip to Bonaire. The location was great - pickup service at the airport was fast and efficient (as was drop off at the end of the trip), my truck rental was great, and the dive operation was unbelievably good. The dive masters were super... more

I was skeptical with some of the reviews posted here but I noticed that a lot of seasoned divers kept returning to Buddy Dive so I decided to go with BD. It was a perfect choice for us! My husband and I are pretty seasoned divers and have gone many places in the Caribbean. You really cannot get so uptight... more

Beautiful ocean views, french doors, excellent service and of course the diving was fantastic! The entire staff at Buddy Dive did all they could to make this trip truly enjoyable. From scheduling open water dive certification, to... more

Hello dear travellers, if you are thinking in going to Bonaire PLEASE DO NOT stay at Buddy Dive Resort. The hotel rooms are infestated with BED BUGS. Please do check your bed before sleeping in any of the rooms there or you will end up like me in a battle with these horrible creatures during your stay and also having... more

It was our first trip to Bonaire and we loved it. Our stay at Buddy Dive was overall very pleasant, but there are a few things that you should be aware of before booking. The staff at the hotel and dive shop were all very pleasant and helpful. The breakfast was also very good, my husband is still raving about... more

We stayed at Buddy Dive Resort Jan 25-Feb1. Check in: They picked us up at the airport. Since we got in at 8 pm they took us directly to our room and let us in. We checked in the next morning at the desk. Dive shop check-in: A bit chaotic. You do have to fill out paper forms. They were... more
