The ideal base of operations for snorkeling, sailing and sunbathing excursions

Excellent resort in a garden like environment. Cozy, clean rooms spread over a wide compound. Nice, sandy beach area with ample shadow and easy access to the clear sea water from a well-kept pier. Very friendly and helpful people. Only observation: although hiring "Dutch student" help for the service seems charming, we found the - perceived - local work force in service, cleaning and gardening to be more cordial and forthcoming. Very relaxing and quiet vacation spot (perhaps a little less so, if you find yourself the neighbor of the gym parking lot). The resort has its own car rental service who also obligingly organize excursions.
Great Week at Delfins

Beautiful boutique resort My 2nd visit to Bonaire and thought I'd upgrade to an ocean view room at a boutique resort - Delfins The resort and grounds are kept very clean. The bed was surprisingly comfortable - Caribbean hotel beds are notoriously uncomfortable. The small kitchenette was convenient , although the sink was a bar sink (8" wide). Not practical for doing dishes Beautiful beach area and pier that provides scenic views and an easy access ladder to the water. Wonderful reception staff (can't remember the gents name but he was excellent). Brought a bottle of wine to our room on my birthday Negatives: 1) No luggage trollies or bell hop to assist with baggage. We had to carry 4 bags through the 30 degree heat to our rooms AND up a flight of stairs. Remember: this is an upscale resort!? 2) Road construction, The main road is inaccessible due to construction. The side road for the main entrance is an unmaintained dirt road - potholes and bumpy 3) Staff at beach restaurants/bar - young kids not trained in hospitality. Evident that the job is a summer or part time job for them. We were referred to as "you Americans!" When we explained we were Canadian, they rephrased "North Americans! LOL. Funny tho.....they don't have a problem with accepting USD One exception - Shylene was fantastic! Great service! Hopefully, Bonaire can improve it's infrastructure in the years to come. The island is paradise but the airport terminal is laughable. Clearly, a product of not enough residents (tax payers) which is why they hit you up for $75 USD when you get off the plane. Overall, Delfins is really nice resort with only a few minor flaws. The diving at this destination is world class - you won't be disappointed
