Residences in Bonaire

"Delfins was an excellent choice for a recent trip my husband and I took to Bonaire. The resort is beautiful and luxurious. The beach is private and provided fantastic views of the water from several of the restaurants on site. You can snorkel right off the beach, if desired. We didn't, but saw several others do so. There isn't a lot of reef right on the resort's reef, but we still saw many fish swimming near us while enjoying the water. One of our favorite things was reserving a cabana at the front of the BBQ on the Beach restaurant. The cabanas were right on the Beach at the end of the property, so they felt private and had incredible views. Reserving them is free for resort guests and you can have food/beverages served to you right there at the cabana if desired. I've had bariatric surgery and am also a picky eater, while my husband is very open and loves fish, which can make meals challenging and limiting because of my dietary restrictions and preferences. However, there was a nice variety of menu options across the various restaurants, which made eating on site multiple times enjoyable for both of us! Each staff member with which we interacted was polite and friendly. I was impressed with the fluency of the multiple languages (primarily Dutch and English) of each customer facing staff member (front desk and servers). There were several events the resort hosted during our stay such as live music with a bonfire at the Beach Brasserie restaurant which was lovely!"

"Very safe and quiet property. Room are very spacious and very, very clean."

"This property is amazing! Everyone at the front desk is so friendly, knowledgeable & accommodative. Loved the lazy river, food was excellent. Asked for an adapter for my curling iron & phone & also a blanket. No problem. Highly recommended!"

"I enjoyed my 5day/4 night stay. The hotel is just as pictured and is very relaxing and beautiful -the accommodation decor is modern but fits the Caribbean lifestyle. The restaurant "

"People should know swimming in the ocean there is very difficult. Very rocky especially getting into the water. It’s just the natural makeup of the island."

"Wonderful staff great stay "

"Van der Valk is an amazing hotel! The amenities, staff and the chefs were great. We are planning to return very soon. A special thank you to Sena (beach bar), Maika (front lobby), Anika (restaurant hostess) and Agnes (Yacht Charters) for making this vacation an unforgettable experience."

"We spent a week on Bonaire at a Guesthouse but decided to spend our last two nights at your hotel. Our only disappointment was that you do not have hand rails going in and out of the pool. My wife could not navigate the steps."

"Beautiful Clean Friendly staff"
