There have been quite a few recent reports on Tripadvisor and elsewhere about how crime is escalating in Bonaire. Apparently, it is now far more than simply nicking hats or T-shirts from parked cars; there were stories of hotel rooms being ransacked, room safes wrenched open with crowbars and in one instance even an entire safe being prised off and carried away. Worst of all, the local police were supposedly ineffective and unsympathetic.
I am going there in 2015 and will be staying at the Habitat. I will take the usual precautions of course, but is it right to assume that a premier resort like Captain Don's Habitat would be relatively safe, at least from being burgled? I have decided not to rent a vehicle myself and will try to use opportunities as they are available to go to out of the way dive sites.
