Accommodations
We are proud to be associated with some of the finest guesthouses and hotels on Bonaire. We’d like to group our choices into four categories for your convenience: "Preferred", '"Budget”, "Private" and “Seaside”.
"Preferred" facilities mean the ultimate in privacy, the kind that only a free-standing house can offer. This is the category meant for groups of divers taking classes or wanting to feel just as independent as if they were at home.
“Budget” accommodations are for the hardcore diver who spends more time in the water than out. They have limited facilities, some have pools, and usually offer a bar for relaxation or breakfast service.
"Private" locations denote relatively secluded facilities with a lot of flair and attention to detail. Small numbers of available rooms make for a very personalized experience.
“Seaside” accommodations are the typical resort-style hotel or condo complex. They offer attractively priced package deals with Bonaire Dive & Adventure, our host dive shop.
Here they come in alphabetical order, and we’ll add more in the future:
Preferred:
Kas Shinishi: This recently built modern home located in the quiet residential neighborhood of Sabal Palm Villas has two bedrooms with airco, screens and comes with bed sheets and towels.
A large freshwater pool with adjacent BBQ and outside shower completes the offerings.
For 1 bedroom occupation the rate is 875 US$ per week, for 2 bedroom occupancy the charge is 1120 US$ per week, with a week being defined as 7 nights.
These rates are all inclusive. A pickup truck is available for an additional 25 US$ p/day.
For reservations please contact CGT office staff.
Budget:

Attention: The hut offers Caribbean Gas Training guests a special rate as well. If you arrive as a team of three, you pay only 75 US$ in their 4-person apartment, making this one of the most economical places on the island. One person has his own room in this configuration. Single divers get their 2-person 50 Dollar rooms for 40 US$ with single occupancy.

They offer very nice, modern rooms with reasonable rates and a gourmet restaurant on ground floor. “Den Laman” means “In the Sea”, so watch the sunset from your balcony or light ‘em up on a night dive, a few steps from your room!
