Comments Flew down via American for two days Nitrox diving. Resort enforces an orientation dive which took up precious time - not all ops in Bonaire require this, in my experience. Rooms are nice; resort is in general very nice (cool little beach). Service was sluggish or non-existant in all areas except the dive shop. Diving was clean, clear, beautiful, plentiful and easy as always. At this time of year Harbour Village is inexpensive and uncrowded - just don't count on the staff for much, and all resort services shut down at around 7:00pm.
