"Great location. We didn't dive but did snorkle. The water is very accesable from the hotel. They have outdoor showers to rinse off after being in the water."
"The Bellefonte has been by far the absolute best place I have ever stayed. The views are amazing! You literally have everything at your fingertips. It is very close to just about everything there is to do. The rooms are more than you can ask for and the service is immaculate! If you're going to Bonaire, the Bellefonte is where you should stay."
"Needs updating. Had to move a room due to biting ants near the bed . Some light fixtures didn’t work. Shower door was stuck. Hot water was barely adequate with a low stream. Fridge shelves had duct tape on them. Needs more maintenance."
"We went up to the bar restaurant at 8:30 p.m. and the staff refused to wait on us, we didn't know why. So we went next door and to Krioyo a restaurant and bar right next to our resort. We asked them why our resort bar wouldn't wait on us and they told us that our resort bar management did not like Americans. Also, the dives I had at their dive shop were terrible. The first I was okay but their inexperienced dive Master did not know how to put my partner's regulator onto a tank and wouldn't let me do it,waited till
so someone finally did it. She also was supposed to make sure the weight was correct on my partner to dive and I always carry extra weight for him, she told me not to and then halfway through the dive, she used weight that I had brought to readjust the weight on my partner, so she didn't listen at all. The second dive was horrible , it was supposed to be a night dive and the dive Master forgot to bring a working flashlight into the water so I had to watch the other divers while he went and got a flashlight for the night time. I had the divers in a safe dive area, when he came back he took us right into a riptide along the shore which stopped the dive after 17 minutes. I asked the dive shop to return my money since we didn't actually get to dive because of their divemaster putting us into a riptide. It was a riptide along the shore and he could have taken us out further, away from the riptide and along the bottom to avoid the current."
"This was paradise! We stayed in the villas with a private pool and will definitely be going back. It was a 3 bedroom,3 bath and the house was amazing.very clean, new appliances, fantastic yard. Could have got 6 people comfortably. It was the best diving and snorkeling we have seen. So many fish! All the restaurants around the hotel were fabulous. Hotel staff was amazing. This is a must stay island and villa."
"I would like to thank the two gentlemen at the front desk, Edsel and Cleon. They were very kind, helpful, and welcoming throughout my stay. Muchas gracias for your excellent service and positive attitude. You truly made my weekend a blessed and enjoyable one. I am very grateful for your kindness and support. Thank you again! 🇧🇶🇧🇶🇧🇶"
