We have stayed at the GRI four times so far and have plans for a for a fifth. We have stayed in other place (Plaza Resort, Buddies, Divi) but we feel the greatest value (bang for the buck) is at the GRI. Liz, Ed, and Jibi are great and make one feel like family. Ed and Liz even took us... more

This is a really, really cheap place to stay. So if you're going to come back to your room only to sleep at night, this is the perfect place. The rooms are decent and clean. AC/TV worked well. The shower has nice hot water, particularly if you don't turn it up all the way. Jibi, the chef, is absolutley wonderful.... more

My wife and I stayed with GRI in April and were satisfied with the location, rooms, and service. Probably the best thing about the property was actually the service, the locals which take care of you are all extremely nice and caring. Additionally, Liz is always a pleasure to talk to which is the owner. The location is great, although... more

We visited Bonaire the last week in Feb. and stayed the full week at the Golden Reef Inn. This is a small "plain Jane" place perfect for divers. The owners Liz and Ed are terrific in every way. They allow you to make phone calls back home for free. The bufet breakfast made every morning by Jibby is delicious. This... more

after reading rave reviews we stayed here for our 4th trip to Bonaire. We requested a room on the main site but were initially put off site in a very run down "villa". We were moved on site as I had my paperwork. This was an improvement. The place was clean but bare bones. we had prepaid so I was... more

We are back in the United States after two awesome weeks in warm and friendly Bonaire. I read the reviews on this website and wanted to add my two gilders worth . . . My husband (snorkeler) and I (diver) stayed in Unit 7 at the Golden Reef Inn's original/main location, about one block off of the main road. The... more

The Dive locker room was great at the main Inn very user friendly with nice rinse tanks bring your own wetsuit and... more

My Dive Buddy and I stayed at the GRI in Studio "D" from October 3-10. Things started out ok, we were met at the airport and followed our greeter to the inn, where we were assigned to our rooms. The room was tiny and rather shabby, and we were only given 1 key. My dive buddy and I are just... more

Stayed here from Oct 21 to 28th. Room was broken into while we were sleeping in it. There is something very unnerving about having theives in your room while you are that vulnerable. This is my second attempt at posting my review for the Golden Reef Inn. The first one mysteriously dissapeared. It will be interesting to see if this... more
