Are there more flamingos than people on Bonaire? It's possible, and it's part of this unspoiled island's appeal. Bring your binoculars and your scuba gear to make the most of Bonaire's natural charms: more than 200 different species of birds live here, and the island itself draws divers from around the world to its reef-lined coast, a National Maritime Park.

Our first stay was in January 2022. It’s May 2022 and we’re back. Dive shop. Aka Great Adventures Bonaire. In a word…Excellent. Pepe manages it with tact and grace. Bonnie is dive master extraordinaire who was my teacher for a fascinating and fun PADI course in reef restoration. Highly recommended!! It encouraged me to visit the Reef Restoration Foundation Bonaire close by. I’m hooked in preserving and fostering the reefs. Raul deserves honorable mention as dive master on a couple of boat dives I took with them. He has a sharp eye but is cautious which is always appreciated. Kischa who’s name I bungled no doubt was also very gracious behind the action. Thanks to all! The beach is exactly as advertised. Even better. There’s great snorkeling within the roped off swimming area which is huge btw. I saw eels, schools of blue tang. Cow fish and trunk fish are my strange looking favs. One can also see the propagation trees where reef restoration is started. Even saw a bait ball a couple times. So much more! I sound like an advertisement I know. I’m from raleigh NC and no affiliation. Rooms are great. This time we were off the marina but close to open ocean. Housekeeping service was without flaw and very pleasant. Plenty of everything we needed including towels. Steffi at front desk deserves a mention here especially in keeping us apprised about our departing flight delay. Ugh. To be honest I would say that otherwise some of the front desk staff might need a bit more training. But nothing more than a bit of confusion. Last time we were quite displeased with the restaurant. Happy to say I enjoyed it much more this time around. One suggestion to management would be to eliminate the price fix menu on Saturday when a delta plane arrives. It gives the patron the wrong impression. Also last time didn’t care for the live music. It’s not that the musician wasn’t very talented. Rather a live singer or whatever is the last thing I want to be listening to when I’m straining to hear the sound of water lapping up against the rocks. Especially that first night. This is a luxury resort. It’s expensive but I think it delivers value. Enjoy.

Great stay at this hotel

Reviewed By ramabham73

This hotel has almost all needed facilities. The employees are polite, not all are friendly. The room was clean. Location is awesome, nearby downtown. Pool has an amazing overlooking to the ocean. You will receive a call from the reception asking if everything is ok. Excellent for divers. Bar employees are very friendly. Best atmosphere is at the bar.

Courtyard by Marriott Bonaire Dive Resort

Great hotel

Reviewed By Kburly12

Having a great experience. We are here now and will be here until Sunday. The hotel is 2 minutes from the airport and check in was easy. Our room is very clean and gets cleaned daily. The people at the front desk are very helpful with any questions we have had. The pool is small but big enough to dip in and cool off. The restaurant has been very good. Valerie has been amazing as a server. Breakfast, you can decide between a continental breakfast or fresh eggs, pancakes bacon etc. lunch and dinner you have many different options. The bar is well stocked and right in the restaurant. Great stay so far and a very nice hotel.

Exceeding service excellence

Reviewed By tamarakV8621OV

On the night when we had dinner at the beautiful Brass Boer Restaurant (which is located on the same property) one of our phones got lost. And we would fly out the next day! The next morning we searched the restaurant but came up empty. With little hope left, we asked Delfins to also please be on the lookout for our phone. One hour before our flight, Delfins unexpectedly called me up saying the phone had been found! The coworker rushed to the airport and delivered the phone to us. Wow! This kind act of service proofs that Delfins' care for people literally goes beyond their beach resort area.

Pleasant hotel for a week's stay

Reviewed By 107adriany

The room was basic - not clothes cupboard, only a rack, for example. However, with a kettle and fridge it was adequate. Room was a decent size with a tidy bathroom and a simple terrace. WiFi was free and quite strong. There was a large diving party staying which meant that the car park was sometimes full by the time one gets back from work. Breakfast was very good on a beachside terrace. Bar was pleasant too. It's a 25 minute walk into the centre of Kralendijk.

Unfortunately I have to agree with the person who gave a negative review..

Reviewed By marU8670VK

The room is as beautiful as on the pictures, at an unbeatable location, it is clean, has the necessary amenities and the price is good for what you get.. It would be perfect, were it not for.... the VERY LOUD music at night.. it's not just the loud music and the off key singing of the visitors but the intense and repetitive vibrating of the bass on the window, bed and floor at 11 pm when you're trying to sleep. Contrary to another traveller's review, I HAD been warned, both from the review as by the check-in clerk that there would be music, but I didn't expect it to be this bad. I would imagine that a hotel that has taken so much care in its design would at least have taken the precaution of placing triple or quadruple glass for the windows if they're planning to actually continue receiving guests as well as continue playing music this loud. Pity of an otherwise well pretty and comfy room.

Small and comfortable

Reviewed By pjcharles

we stayed for three nights. It is very small - like 8 rooms. Our room was right at the beach so you cannot ask for a better view! The manager tried very hard to please and was very pleasant. The room was comfortable but small. The AC was GREAT! This hotel is near the airport which means you do get some of the air traffic. However, if you are looking for a smaller and more intimate resort, this is a worthwhile tradeoff.

Reviewed By simplybeaching

On a whistlestop tour of Bonaire, I stayed in various hotels but SENSES was hands down my favourite by far. From the moment I stepped into my apartment, I was blown away. There is such incredible attention to detail and I loved the decor, the colour accents and the service I received was impeccable as well. My penthouse apartment had an incredible view of the water and I loved the interactive touch screen mirror in the master bedroom. Like everything on this property, the pool area was just fabulous and the property is conveniently located in the heart of Kralendijk. Thank you for an incredible stay, I'll be back!
