3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2013 NEW

Like other reviewers have said, this isn't a hotel, it's more apartment building/condos. I was traveling by myself, so I booked the Studio room, 301B. My thinking was that in America, all rooms have the same decor/amenities, it's just the size/beds/baths you pay more/less for. That is NOT the case here. This dinky little room was yellow, smelled weird, had... More

We are surprised to read the review of your stay with us on Trip Advisor, especially after the wonderful discussion we had in our reception area while you were awaiting your departure transportation to the airport. It is unfortunate that you could not have mentioned your concerns to the GM at that time as we would much rather have discussed... More

i was in unit 102. great walkout to deck. the unit was large. myself and two adult children. two bathrooms all is of high standard not really a hotel but a condo which rents out units. very close to airport but not an issue. there are relatively few flights. spot is equidistant between windsurfing and town so perfect for me....

I cannot say enough positive things about our week in Bonaire at the Bellafonte. From our initial conversations with Yuri before our trip to him helping us with our luggage when we left, he made our stay better than we could have hoped for. Our room (305) was beautifully appointed and well equipped with everything one would need for a... More

We rented the penthouse, unit 405, and it was AMAZING!! The views couldn't be beat, and the friendliness of the entire staff was such a treat. We felt at home the entire week and had a full kitchen to prepare our own meals if we didn't want to go out after a long day of diving. The private pier allows... More

What a great place! This has to be the best place to stay on Bonaire. We had booked a senior suite and were thrilled when we learned that we had been upgraded to the penthouse for the week. We had two bedrooms, three bathrooms, a wraparound balcony with gorgeous ocean views, a large living room huge dining table and a... More

i had looked at these beautiful condos and decided against them due to no onsite dive shop, and frankly, thought that the photos were so beautiful, that they had taken photos of the beautiful places only and the rest would be "okay". After a crazy water leak at the condos down the road, we were put here as an alternative... More

We stayed there 2 nights. It was amazing! It is more like a condo that you rent than a hotel. Large spaces, snorkling right off the pier, friendly and very helpfull staff, full kitchen ( in our suite: 105), beatiful view

We just returned from our second visit to Bellafonte, and it confirmed all our happy memories of the first stay 4 years ago. We’ve now tried out the very affordable studio, the jr. suite, and the sr. suite. The huge covered front deck, large kitchen area, and immense interior in the senior suite have probably spoiled us for booking the... More
