Roland and Irene was very kind!everything excellent, good service and good price. Recommended 100%. Near from diving center. On thursday good BBQ.

I stayed at Bonaire Fun Apartments ( the sister property also owned by Roland and Irene) last year & loved it! This year I went with my sister & Roland and Irene recommended I stay in the Tropicana as it was larger and we could easily have two beds in the bedroom. They apartment had everything one could want.We love having the kitchen & the lovely outside seating area where we enjoyed more than a few bottles of wine :) The apartment was clean, spacious & much nicer than any hotel room! Roland and Irene are excellent hosts & Irene was kind enough to join us on our snorkle trip on the Woodwind. We had a wonderful time & they made us feel very welcome and very at home. I would never stay anywhere else when i go to Bonaire! If you are looking for clean, friendly & the best hosts ever, this is the place for you! We even inherited a local cat who came to hang out with us , man was he ever cute! So if you go and stay in the first apartment, look for the orange/ siamese mix cat.. We named him Chimi and we miss him!!!
We can't wait to go back and stay with Irene and Roland again. Wonderful!

Irene and Roland are excellent hosts - they own the Tropicana (which I stayed at), Bonaire Fun and the Dive Hut - all really close to each other. Excellent economical place for divers - they will sort out a package that includes unlimited diving and a truck. (Currently just take cash and travellers checks - so double check before you go to see if they take credit cards yet). Not luxury, but very clean and comfortable. An excellent choice for divers who want the freedom of shore diving all day and don't need the resort amenities or boat dives of things like Buddys, Capt Don's or Divi on the water (which you pay a premium for) - of course you always have the choice to pay for a boat dive at WannaDive as well over to Klein should you wish. Irene and Roland now also host the WannaDive BBQ on Thursday nights at the Dive Hut....free rum punch from 5:30-6:30 and all you can eat BBQ from 7pm - all for $15 - most excellent ! A freiendly bunch of people and always seem to be freindly guests who stay there as well !

I certainly recommend this place and I will be definately be back.

Tropicana (and the nearby sister property Bonaire Fun) are clean, well-maintained, and reasonably priced bases of operation for a fantastic dive trip.
