Amazing Stay at Captain Don's

jkenigs on Dec 30, 2024

Captain Don's really is a diverse paradise. The services was absolutely amazing every step of our stay, from the front desk, to the Scuba Diving and the bar/restaurant. The hotel is centrally located in the island, which makes it a perfect launching spot for your diving adventures. And even if you don't dive, the place is just nice. The restaurant bar has an amazing view where you'll definitely want to enjoy some cold beers while the sun sets. The rooms are very comfortable, with big comfortable beds and a very nice balcony. There's also a supermarket near by if you want to save some money on meals, as the island definitely isn't cheap. We'll absolutely be back at Captain Don's in the near future for our next scuba vacation.

I’ll return to dive in 2025!

Great location for boat and shore diving. The room was comfortable and the staff was welcoming. Aaron at the front desk was especially helpful and friendly. The dive masters and dock manager are the reason I will return to Captain Don’s to dive in 2025. Thanks everyone!

Great family hotel, perfect service and oceanfront location

Hilda H on Dec 28, 2024

We had a great time at Don’s Habitat. The rooms are very tidy and comfortable. The resort has great pools and is located directly near the ocean. We also loved the Rum Runners restaurant and bar with the amazing view and delicious fresh food/catch of the day. Definitely want to come back here!!

Not top tier comfort but its the Caribbean so roll with it

We had a great family dive trip to Bonaire. Captain Dons has done a remodel and there are old rooms and new rooms, we were not in a new room and it was OK. In a place like Bonaire you know to put your adventure hat on and not worry about things that are a little marginal. The Patio where the restaurant and bar overlook the ocean is great and the morning buffet breakfast there before heading to a dive is great. The dive locker room was not great but is part of the adventure and its hard to beat being able to walk off the pier into a dive boat or right into the water for a good dive 100 ft off the hotel. The pool area is good and since you walk through the bar between the dock/ gear storage and your room my wife grew to appreciate the after dive mojito. All in all we had a blast. If you are a good diver the individual dive opportunities are better than the boat dives, they do run too many people and dive as a group with a "leader" so the wildlife vanish.

Excellent Dive Resort

Laura S on Dec 14, 2024

Captain Dons is an excellent place to stay and the diving is great. TDS is a great technical dive shop that provides superb technical support. Rooms are comfortable and food is fine. Staff are very nice, helpful and knowledgeable. I would not go anywhere else on Bonaire
