Kralendijk Resorts

Food was acceptable to poor. Because most restaurants are outdoors, insects made the dining experience unpleasant. Bring bug spray. Recommend going to local grocery store to stock up for quick meals. Room has refrigerator, stove and oven. Although there were several bait traps for roaches in the room, we saw none. Bonaire has fantastic reefs and coral formations, however, marine life tended to be small. If you enjoy beach diving, Bonaire may be for you; however, if you enjoy boat diving, I recommend another location. Resort offers only 1 boat dive a day (subject to availability) and there are few outside boat operators to engage for additional boat diving. Because of unusual currents around Bonaire at the time, visibility in water for diving was okay during the day and poor at night. Wireless internet service in the room rarely worked. Because suite had only a 5 gal. hot water heater, showers were luke warm at best, but rarely were cold. There is no room service. Because tipping by other travelers was poor and therefore most expect little to no tip (we were the only people who tipped dive masters), service in most restaurants and other establishments both at the resort and in town was poor and slow. The park at the end of the island was disappointing. You can see most things of note (flamingos, wild donkeys and goats, iguanas and trees) within a few miles; however, because It is a series of one way roads, you must go through the entire park (about 1 - 1 1/2 hours). Because of the risk of break in, resort recommends that vehicles remain open at all times with no valuables left inside. Diving with all valuables was inconvenient.
