New and improved Divi Flamingo Beach Resort to be unveiled at DEMA
Attendees at the 2015 DEMA Conference will be among the first to preview the new and improved Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino, which has recently completed a multi-million dollar renovation. The resort improvements will be on display at booth #2136, where streaming video and photography will showcase the total-property upgrade.
To celebrate the debut of Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino’s new amenities and showcase the resort’s spectacular dive operation, representatives from Divi Resorts will be offering great dive and vacation offers exclusively for DEMA attendees. Additionally, guests who visit the booth will be entered to win a complimentary seven-night stay for two with unlimited shore diving.
The update to Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino includes a multitude of improvements to the rooms, such as new furniture, lighting, appliances, artwork from local artists and upgraded bathrooms, as well as to the resort’s exterior, which has received new paved pathways and landscaping. Divi Dive Bonaire, the resort’s PADI 5-Star and SSI dive operation, has debuted a brand new dive shop and retail space, complete with upgraded classrooms featuring the latest technology.
A new 36’ Newton dive boat as also been added, making it the sixth boat in the Divi Dive Bonaire fleet.
The resort’s pools have been redone and now include plush daybeds for poolside lounging, and a sun-lounge deck with drink service has opened. There is a new beach in front of the casino, featuring food and drink service, ocean access and furniture. The new pureocean restaurant has opened, offering fresh, buffet-style cuisine under an airy pavilion for breakfast daily and themed dinners three nights per week. The resort’s other restaurant, Chibi Chibi, has also undergone renovations that include new furniture, painting, lighting and more, in addition to delicious new menu items. Chef Antonio Bruni, who was recently hired as Divi Flamingo’s Executive Chef, will be developing new menu concepts for both restaurants in the coming months. The entire resort renovation was completed in September 2015 and provides a fully enhanced experience for guests at Divi Flamingo Beach Resort & Casino. The resort offers the best shore and boat diving on Bonaire, plus a fantastic oceanfront location that is only a short walk from the buzzing town of Kralendijk, where guests can enjoy shopping, dining and nightlife.
