3 Best Hotels in Bonaire

This lavish oasis of accommodations exudes barefoot luxury at its best, with well-equipped and chic modern suites, high-end villa options (some with their own plunge pools), and spacious penthouse suites all cresting a lovely little beach surrounded by a spectacular water feature of magnesium pools. Restaurants range from a fun and funky beach bar and BBQ to the world-class Brass Boer where you can dine seaside or inside. They also offer economical Jeep rentals.

Bonaire's very first hotel catering to divers remains a favorite even four decades later with a PADI and SDI (Suba Diving International) Center offering more than 20 specialty courses; mesmerizing reef formations 90 feet from shore; and beautifully renovated accommodations that include oceanfront rooms and suites, luxurious three-bedroom villas, and a few cottages. Designed from the beginning to be the island's most eco-friendly resort, the property is a recipient of the Bonaire Blue Destination Certification, and ongoing renovations, room additions, and refreshes of the entire resort are being undertaken in the most environmentally friendly manner possible.
