hi... i don't know anything about Palm Studio, and in fact am asking a similar question
about a different place in Bonaire... but here's a link with some great packages
that i am using right now to book our vacation:

Try giving Bart at Wannadive hut an email. I know he has apartments for rent. It's not the Ritz but it's clean, reasonably close to town and Wannadivebonaire dive ops are great to work with. We stayed there in March and were happy with the place. It's hard to beat $250pp for 7day room AND 6 days unlimited Air for diving. He just opened a couple of months ago so many dive travel places don't know about them. If you are interested call Caradonna travel and ask for Tinna (ex 116). I worked with her on my trip. It was the first time they had booked there as well, tell her I sent you.

I agree with Herman - Anything the Wannadive guys do is great. I have read several reports on the accomodiations and they sound nice for the price. You can go the website and look at them as Herman mentioned.

A few other suggestions: Yatch Club Apartments (they offer a package with a rental truck and diving with Wannadive) and Happy Holliday Homes. Both offer nice apartments with easy access to all the wonderful dive spots Bonaire as to offer. Yatch Club is North of town and, Happy Holliday Homes is South of town.

Havent been there but just found a old friend of mine who ran a shop in NJ for years and moved to Bonaire in the 80's and opened http://www.blackdurgon.com/
The name is Al Catalfumo and was as good as they come. Always willing to help and from what Ive seen on the net is still a good bet. Give him a email or call, Im sure he would be glad to help
