Comments	My wife & I just got back from a 2 week scuba diving trip to Bonaire. We did a package of diving, driving, & accommodations through Bonaire Pros. Although we frequently go to Bonaire, this was the first time we stayed at Den Laman. We could not be more pleased at the great customer service from everyone involved. Cecile & Simon from Sunwise Bonaire were perfect hosts and very accommodating to our needs. We stayed at an oceanfront 1 bedroom condo called Yellow Tail. This condo was perfect in every way. The kitchen was well appointed with all the pots, pans, dishes, utensils, and fully operational icemaker, frig, microwave, and oven. The entire building was well maintained and our condo was clean and spacious. All of the oceanfront rooms have spectacular views with the ever-present sounds of the ocean lapping at the shore. Sunsets from our room were picturesque with a sun ideally placed just outside our balcony. The location of Den Laman is perfect for access to northern, central, and southern dive sites. Additionally, the parking at Den Laman was absolutely stress free and no hassle. The on-the-premises dive shop, Dive Friends, also did a great job at providing all diving equipment, storage space, and assistance we needed. We rented our truck via Avis at the airport. To our pleasant surprise, we found Avis staff to be efficient and friendly with us. The paperwork, checkout, & check back in process was very smooth for us. We will definitely be back later this year to stay at Den Laman if it is available.
