Courtyard Bonaire Dive Resort

Courtyard Bonaire Dive Resort @courtyardbonaire So after you check in they will take you in a golf cart to your room as there are no cars allowed on that part of the property (optional since its not a far walk) From there i got to my room which is the 1 bedroom waterfront villa. This villa is very spacious and dope. Comes with 2 full bathrooms and a fridge even has a little stove top to cook if we wanted to and all the utensils necessary. Im so grateful to the staff here who welcomed me with some nice words, a cake and even some gifts for my 40th birthday. That was such a pleasant surprise which im honored by. This resort is very chill and laid back as well as pretty quiet. Even despite being so close to the airport the sounds of the planes are definitely not a bother at all. Having Platinum Elite status is definitely an amazing thing to have. It comes with free breakfast every day annnnnddddddd a $20 food and beverage credit i can use daily at the restaurant & bar. Cant beat that. Of course i hit the gym too it isnt that big but has all the things essential to getting in a good workout while on vacation. There is a pool on site which is nice and there are some lounge chairs as well as cabanas for you to relax in. The hotel is not far from a lot of things and comes with free parking. You should definitely rent a car to explore. There is an awesome water activities shop on property to help you organize your excursions and you get a discount for being a guest at the hotel. I highly reccomend you do at least the snorkeling tour with them. Bonaire is just right up my alley being so chill and laid back like myself. Excited to explore and learn more about the island!

The worst experience at a marriott anywhere in the world. Mold all over the bedroom and bathroom ceilings. No management on duty during the weekend to talk to . I finally got a hold of the GM one week after we checked out, he said the right things on the phone but he never followed up or answered my messages afterwards. Stay away from thus hotel. Black mold is no joke.

A very nice hotel with large rooms and a good position for visiting the island, close to the airport with a small pool, restaurant and helpful staff. Rooms are cleaned daily to a great standard and the general amenities and staff at reception are excellent. Not impressed with Greg the bar manager who uses the current restrictions to close as early as he can so he can get off home despite there being guests to be served a good 15 minutes before closing. Appears to have an hysterical panic attack at anything that doesn’t agree with his plans.

So, there have been people complaining last year about the swimming pool. Sometimes chemicals can get off balance. But, now, in January 2022 it is beautiful and refreshing! The staff has been extremely accommodating at the front desk, restaurant and housekeepers. My housekeeper even wrote a sweet not back to me when I left a note and tip. YES, you are supposed to tip housekeeping staff! ($5-$10/day is what I do). I am posting photos so that you can see how pristine the pool and resort are.

After a multi night stay: The grounds are well maintained and the common areas clean. The room we stayed in had no maintenance issues and the housekeeping did a thorough job during each visit (housekeeping service is offered every other day). The Front Desk staff is polite and willing to assist. The in room TV offers multiple Dutch language, English and local channels. The Wi-Fi worked without any issues. As others have mentioned, no idea why this is branded as a "Courtyard" (a business brand in my mind), but that is irrelevant to the quality of the stay. Peaceful and conveniently located for the island exploration.

Fast check in and was able to get to our room right away, clean, good air conditioning

Good hotel, comfortable and clean, nice dining option with a view. Convenient near the airport.

We booked a VRBO house on the island but were disappointed when we arrived to no AC, so we quickly switched to this hotel. They were able to find us two rooms close together, and the whole trip ended up feeling like we were supposed to stay there. The people who work at the hotel are the best. They took us in gold carts with our luggage to our room. They printed our boarding passes since Bonaire doesn’t accept electronic passes. Jean and Andres at the restaurant were top knotch, so kind. We brought our two daughters (2 and 5), and everyone was so helpful and kind. Breakfast was free for the kids, expensive for adults ($30/person, unless you have a room rate that includes it). We called to have our rooms cleaned most days, but sometimes they didn’t come. The pool was great for our kids with an easy entry. I didn’t realize until the end of the week that there are foot sprayers on the back of the ice buildings. As divers, we appreciated the drying rack in our building. We used it each day. The hotel is in a great location for pretty much everything we wanted to do. Thanks for making our stay so enjoyable when we hadn’t even planned on staying there this trip!
