My husband and I are staying at the Plaza. If we want to get around to try other restaurants and places downtown, what is the best way? If we rent a truck, are there places to park?

Plaza's kinda on the limit of easy walking to town. Most people find rental vehicles worthwhile. Parking's usually not a problem (except right on "Main Street" in Kralendijk and there's plenty of parking to either side off Main street). A vehicle is also nice to have for exploring the island at your own pace.

Renting a vehicle is great for getting around the island and to all of the shore diving sites. If you are going to do all boat diving you might not need a vehicle. The Plaza is about a mile from town and if you like walking it is not that far. We frequently see people making that walk from the Plaza to town. With a vehicle you can tour the rest of the island as public transportation is minimal. There plenty of places to park in town. Have fun and enjoy Bonaire

The Plaza is a wonderful walk to the town. People are friendly and there is a nice walkway from the Divi to town on the water side It is such a nice walk and all the good Restaurants are right there and there are many . Also on the walk home you can help walk off dinner and see the lights and stars and the lights of night divers in the water. It is heaven on earth.
