We got a studio with kitchen and it was a good sized room and clean. It's conveniently located near a dive shop across the street with great shore diving. Would definitely recommend The Dive Hut to anyone looking for a place to stay in Bonaire.

This hotel was exactly as promised and exactly what we wanted. If you want a fancy place where you are waited on hand and foot, go somewhere else, this is not the hotel you are looking for. BUT, it you want a comfortable, simple place to sleep and relax between diving and other activities, this is the place for you!

Our stay at DiveHut
This hotel is great for those who are on budget. The location is great, close to alot of places. Mattress is too tough to sleep good, and sometimes, while in shower, water in will stop up for a few minutes then running back on.

Happy New Year start at the Dive Hut!
As a married couple looking for a week of simple relaxation, low-key tourism, diving, snorkeling and treating ourselves to the best of local dining, the Dive Hut and Irene and the Hut gang hit the spot. Location was great - easy walk into town and back at all hours. Easy walk to Gooodive and Wannadive. Room was simple, but roomy and comfortable. Bring some bug spray if you like to sit outside to read in the evening - the local mosquitoes liked one of us. Staff was super helpful with local advice. Apart from New Year's fireworks and noisemakers, very quiet. Wifi not great - but vacations are better with books and company :) We would stay at the Hut again!

Very comfortable bed and breakfast type of hotel in Bonaire, away from the beaten tourist path, private and quiet, owners very much tuned to their guests' needs. Loved the location, close to everything yet totally private street away from the hubbub. Food delicious for breakfast, nice menu. Owner favored wood décor and the carpentry was beautifully done and gives a warm welcome to the guests.

It’s a decent and basic lodging. The room was small with a hard mattress bed, small shower. If you have problem walking or carrying your luggage, don’t take an upstairs room. The staircase is rickety with uneven steps.

Good value for the price.
Small and very focused on dive tourists that do not spend a lot of time at the hotel itself. Considering the price, the place is a pretty good value. Rooms are simple but comfortable, and the staff is very friendly and flexible. Changing the duration of my stay was done in less than 3 minutes.

Great funky little hotel at a great price
This is a scuba diving hotel that is a great bargain in a convenient location, easy walking distance to dive shops, restaurants and the dive side of the island. They have an equipment storage room, bar and breakfast cafe and nice outdoor lounging area. For the price and genuine friendliness it was a great choice.

Perfect location diving with Dive Friends Bonaire!
Lovely, quiet location just a couple of blocks from Dive Friends Bonaire's Yellow Submarine shop. Dive Hut has modest accommodations with a very friendly, helpful staff. It's an easy-going, comfortable and very relaxing atmosphere.

Great location
If your looking for something fancy with constant towel and bed service look elsewhere otherwise the accommodations were very suitable for the needs. I had a week planned to do nothing but diving and exploring the island and it lived up to my expectations perfectly.

good economical place
thank you to fellow reviewers who prepared us for what we signed up for. because of previous reviews we knew to bring our own toiletries as they don't supply any, and we knew there was no housekeeping service. However, this point gets a bit "interesting" by the end of a week....it would definitely make the stay a bit more enjoyable if they could clean the floor and change the sheets(it is a hot climate) even once during the week. OR provide a broom so you could do it yourself. Derrick was awesome (friendly and helpful) just one tip - please TELL people how to turn the hot water on :)...Location was awesome, quiet; slept like a ROCK! the Thursday night BBQ was FABULOUS and we loved the outdoor space were we could have breakfast.

Good Value for Price
I enjoyed my stay, it was a good value for the price, however I like to drink my own coffee and teas and make my own food, so next time I would elect to stay in a more expensive room that comes with a kitchen. A/c was really good. The best thing about this hotel is price and the social atmosphere. There were a lot of solo travelers and friendly people. Hotel staff could be a little more friendly/look like they like their jobs but maybe it's a dutch thing idk

For people on a low budget
Yes the room was as I saw on the net. The bathroom however has a window opposite a house near by about 20 ft away .the window had no curtains and I couldn't shower with the lights on or during the day I had to stoop a bit or the people next door could have seen me clearly from chest up because I'm tall. There were no soaps or anything of that sort here I had to take out my own garage to the bin at the front of the hotel I was there 6 days no one cleaned the room nor changed the sheets. On the third day I had to go ask for bathroom tissue which I got then the next day a lady knocked on the door and brought more towels.that's it no frills nothing.I definitely won't recommend nor stay again .besides the people who run this hotel are the only people in the entire Bonaire I interacted with who I didn't feel any friendliness from.

Basic accommodation with reasonable price
Very basic as the room rate suggests. Convenient for walking to dive shop, restaurants, beach etc. Room doesn't have any amenities like shampoo/conditioner/shower gel/lotion. Not even a bar soap. Towels were very rough and felt like sandpaper around your body. Could use fabric softener.
