Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino

first they took our king bed room and gave it to a group of people, [convention] so they could be together. they stuck us on the second floor with no elevators, in an old hay loft looking room, no ceiling, just the roof. the beds were $25 mattress, placed on plywood. the balcony view [garden/pool view] was looking at a restaurant and a couple of bushes. the hot tubs were not in operation and no work was being done to replace them. the casino was being mismanaged, allowing people to play 2 or more machines while guests stood around waiting or leaving. the restaurants were okay limited menu items, if you're looking for an elegant night out it isn't there. the food was very good. the people[ staff] were very nice and pleasant, especially reein, sara, kendra, michaellaton. preeti , molly and more i can't remember. they all did their best to make things right with no help from management. i could go on but what's use. if you're not a diver, stay away. there is no beach unless rocks are your thing.

We stayed at Divi Flamingo Beach Resort over the Christmas holidays and we had an amazing time! We specifically picked Divi Flamingo Beach Resort for their proximity to town and the dive shop. We went out on several diving excursions and we can’t say enough about the crew down at the dive shop they were extremely professional and organized - kudos to Greg and Jackie for making us feel at home. My daughter had a bad headache on our last day diving so she couldn’t dive. Jackie was very concerned about my daughter and made sure she was all right the next day - now that’s caring for your guests. I would also like to thank Reina, one of the supervisor at the restaurant for her kind hospitality. Reina was always smiling and cheerful which made our stay even more enjoyable. We would not hesitate a minute to book here again. Thank you everyone at Divi Flamingo Beach Resort for making our stay so pleasant!

Leuke plek met terras meteen aan de zee

Ik vind het ontbijt daar niet geweldig

breakfast, beach and quietness. it was estupendous. 5 min walk from the town and supermarket

nothing i could think of

Very friendly staff- huge shoutout to Elton ( Elvis😘) at the chibbi chibbi bar- great drinks and conversation. Front desk staff Calvin and Sara very accommodating and personable. Dive shop staff very nice as well. Resort very clean and well maintained ( pool missing a few tiles but sparkling clean). Food was so so ( glad we didnt opt for all inclusive). SO many wonderful restaurants in town to choose from! Short walk to town! Many good spots to sit at beach or pool/ never a scramble for chairs. Our room , while clean,was in need of an update particularly the shower which definitely needs to be redone. We had a beautiful view on our balcony. We were in room 117. This was our third trip to Bonaire and our first at Divi Flamingo. Would we stay here again next year? Yes especially due to location and friendliness of staff- however Divi is a bit dated so hoping they put some $ into refurbishing some areas. You will enjoy your stay here especially if you're a diver or snorkeler. See ya next year🐠🦎

Poor customer service!! When we arrived they took a deposit of $75.00 x 4 on my credit card and said it would be returned upon our departure. Well it’s been over three weeks, countless emails and we still haven’t received a dime or any responses to our emails. Be aware if you book this resort for holidays not to be expect any customer service or your money back for that matter.

Great little resort with exceptional access to diving and a variety of food options, a fun couple of bars and quiet at night. At first I was a little "concerned" about the casino on premise, but that turned out to not be an issue at all. The entire staff including the dive shop team were helpful and friendly. We also fell in with another family and our young adult kids hung out together and we all shared some meals together, so some nice tourists as well. We also did the all-inclusive which made food and drink easy and especially for the kids who didn't always want to be with us. Anyway, we'll likely be back another year. Oh, and finally, many of the people we met have been coming to this resort for years and years. That says something, too.

We have stayed at, and been happy with, the diving at Divi Flamingo many times in the past. This time was different. While the divemasters are awesome, the boats are often crowded, and it's not ideal for one divemaster to have to keep track of 14 divers. Previously that large a number of divers would have meant 2 divemasters in the water. The dive sites are deteriorating... due in part to massive cruise ships that now stream into Bonaire's port daily. And while there are still some interesting fish and other marine life, the reefs are essentially brown.. suffering from coral disease. It's a huge difference from the vibrant, healthy, colorful reefs we used to love about Bonaire. Very sad to see the change. The resort is also changing. While the staff is still fabulous (shoutout to the front desk!) Divi Flamingo is now marketing itself as a family vacation spot, rather than a dive vacation spot... so lots of kids running around. That's not necessarily a bad thing.. But Divi Flamingo used to be a great dive resort with a good hotel. Now it's apparently aiming to be a good hotel that happens to have some diving. If you're a serious diver, this may not be an optimal choice for you.

This is a very, very special place where you are enveloped in beauty, calm, and kindness. It’s a resort, even boasts a casino, but if you are so inclined, you can make it a retreat. Paradise for swimming, snorkeling, scuba, birding, reading by the azure sea. We’ll go back every year!
