"Great location with an easy walk to town and restaurants on the boulevard by the sea. The manager is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. The bed was very comfortable and I felt safe at the property. I will be staying here again. Excellent! "
"Very convenient resort for diver, drive thru for tank fill up, reef on site and dock for boat dives on site as well, food could be improved and outlets really need to be replaced (room 409) they barely hold anything, they are completely worn out, it was a struggle to charge devices, this is a cheap easy repair that could really improve the room quality.

"We loved the Manta Monday presentation. We loved the dive ship and everyone that worked there was kind and relaxed. The hotel was very central and everything was at the hotel or within close proximity to the hotel. We loved Bonaire and think the location made it great. We also loved the Chibi Chibi bird in the restaurant and loved seeing her steal sugar from the alcohol bottles and then go to her nest. Those experiences and learning from the locals made our vacation magical. "
Van der Valk Plaza Beach & Dive Resort Bonaire - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful luxurious experience. Great all inclusive food service with sushi at dinner and fresh fish grilled for both lunch and dinner! Kids had a blast. "
"One Ocean Boutique was absolutely fantastic. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. The property was spotless, beautifully designed, and fully equipped. We had a little trouble with the stove initially, but the incredibly helpful owners quickly guided us through it.
The larger bedroom offered a stunning ocean view, and falling asleep to the sound of the waves was a dream. There was one night with a loud, unsanctioned party nearby, but thankfully, the bedrooms were so well insulated we couldn’t hear a thing once inside.
The location is excellent—perfect for snorkeling right off the property, and easily suitable for diving as well. Honestly, we loved it so much we hesitated to share this review—this place feels like a hidden gem. We will definitely be coming back.
Highly recommended."
"The property was amazing. Its in the middle of everything. You dont need a rental car because everything in walking distance. The property manager was great. All the amenities is super up to date and the pool area is awesome. Little walk out the resort and the marina and store's are right there. Love this place"
"The service and team there was excellent. Their attention towards us was exceptional. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The property was beautiful. No negative feedback. Only that our kitchen sink had a bad leak and there was a gap between the entry door to our room and the floor. Had to stuff a towel in it to keep mosquitos out. I would definitely recommend staying there. We met many others there who were repeat visitors."
"This is not the newest and most modern resort on Bonaire, but it is very clean, well kept up, quiet, and has excellent snorkeling right in front of the property. There are a number of good restaurants within an easy walking distance. The unit we booked (a 1 bedroom) was much larger than we expected - an unexpected pleasant surprise. Everything you need is included in the unit, plates, silverware, glasses, pots/pans, coffee maker, microwave, refrigerator, and stove. In the bathroom, there is a hair dryer (important for my wife). The unit also has a very nice screened in lanai to enjoy the sunset. The unit was cleaned once during our week stay (which was communicated at booking). Communications was excellent, staff were pleasant to work with and very helpful. It's only about a 5 minute drive to downtown, 10-12 to the airport, and convenient to a number of well recommended snorkeling and dive spots. There are4 two dive shops very close by."
"Delightful staff and for a diver, it doesn't get easier or more convenient of an experience. The reef is nice, different than what I expected putting it up against the Red Sea. Different things to see essentially. Red Sea would be more colorful in hard corals and clams while Bonaire has large gorgonians and massive pipe corals where you simply don['t see in Egypt. A very nice 12 day stay. Red Sea would be more of a highly restrictive dive environment. Buddy dive is the polar opposite. Regulation and restriction is at a absolute minimum. Not unsafe, just wonderfully open and free for an AOW diver to simply just come and do his thing. The only negative which almost every hotel falls short on is for longer stays, the beds simply are never comfortable enough. I will return to Buddy Dive when traveling to dive on Bonaire in the future, there is no reason to stay anywhere else.
