[None]We stayed 12 days. Bonaire has good reefs. Capt. Dons: average rooms/ average housekeeping service. Maintenance problems :air cond/toilets/lack of towels. Dining and dining service only average. Dive boats good. Majority of staff seemed unfriendly. Dive staff was quite unfriendly and sullen. Dive briefings were less than helpful: for example: you will see fish, begin your dive against the current. We were only able to dive with three tanks of nitrox before Capt. Dons totally ran out of nitrox for the remainder of our trip. Dive store poorly stocked for dive operation. If Capt. Dons was the only place to stay and dive in Bonaire, we would not return. However; we did take the time to find other facilities for any future trips we may take to Bonaire. |
