You can't beat staying in a condo within a resort! We enjoyed all the comforts of home while being just steps away from a private sandy beach, where I encountered more wildlife than anywhere else on the island (including two octopuses, huge eels, sea cucumbers, spotted drum, lionfish, scorpionfish, conch, massive tarpon, flounders, puffers, angels, anemones, and parrotfish). Additionally, we had daily housekeeping, room service, beach service, a spa, a dive shop, boat trips, and a souvenir/sundry shop at our disposal.
Another fantastic feature is that 100% of the beach chairs, tables, and hammocks are shaded by dense palm trees, and even during peak hours of spring break, only 20% were occupied. There was always a table available at the restaurant, which offered great service, an excellent breakfast, a good lunch, and a passable dinner. Plus, there are plenty of great dining options within walking distance. With ample parking in Bonaire (even downtown) and driving on the right side, you can easily reach almost anywhere in 15 minutes.
This has now become our second favorite lodging of all our travels. The only downside is the laundry situation—there are no washer-dryers in the beachfront condos (even for a fee), and while they do offer laundry service, it's not included and requires filling out a form (we had a one-day turnaround). Our favorite place (Tulemar in Costa Rica) offers the same amenities (except the wildlife is on land) but includes laundry service in the price, where you simply leave your clothes on the bathroom floor, and they return them clean.
The hotel is located on a fantastic beach, which is truly wonderful. The dive club organizes excellent snorkeling excursions; we went to Andrea 2 and had a great time. You can snorkel right in front of the hotel, but it's more suited for very inexperienced snorkelers and is somewhat limited. The reception staff are excellent and very helpful, as are the maintenance staff. The restaurant staff are okay, but they are young and lack experience. The gym is adequate but a bit outdated, though it has everything you need. The hotel restaurant is expensive and doesn't use high-quality products, which seems to be a common issue throughout Bonaire, possibly due to import challenges. The rooms are somewhat dated and could use refurbishment. Additionally, in our room category, there were no double beds available, so we had to sleep separately, which wasn't very romantic.
