What a lovely place. Located on the outskirts of Kralendijk in a residential area, there are no shops or restaurants at walking distance. The island is small, though, so you never have to drive very far. In exchange you get a very quiet, relaxing atmosphere, with a beautiful view towards Klein Bonaire. The rooms are spacious and clean, with very comfortable beds. Kim is a very welcoming host, who is always happy to help with any request. Even when we lost our key and she had to come back to the property, she was super nice about it. In the morning, there is also Yvonne who cleans and prepares breakfast (if you order it in advance). Breakfast was usually too much and we couldn't finish it, with different items every day. Very tasty! During the afternoon and the evening, there is usually no staff present. You can use the kitchen and you get your own shelf in the fridge. You can lounge around on the sun beds or the hammocks, and splash around in the pool, or go explore the island. Also, because this is a small property, there were hours where we had the place to ourselves. It was all very relaxing.

This is our fourth stay at Goood Resort and it retains the standard and staff support that first attracted us to it. Besides the lovely pool (there are now two), the other huge plus is not only that you can cook for yourself (and the kitchen is well-stocked not only with an array of cooking utensils, plus a good collection of herbs, spices and oils available for guests to use) but there is plenty of fridge and freezer space for supermarket shops. The hill location is superb with glorious views of the island and across to Klein Bonaire, not least when watching the sun set across the sea. Our room ( we always stay in 'Cloud Nine') was huge with twin basins, a shower and bath, a walk-in closet and vast bedroom with excellent air conditioning. Above all, Goood Resort is ideal to relax and wind down and the perfect base to take advantage of Bonaire's amazingly good snorkelling - the Resort supplies swimming towels. We still fail to understand why so few British people holiday here. Thank you Kim and Yvonne for looking after us so well and making our week with you so memorable.

We were very pleased to find this hidden gem in the center of Bonaire! Having stayed at more expensive place on the water, this was a refreshing change - and at 125/night, so reasonable!! The hotel has only 7 rooms, and us up in the hills of Santa Barbara. As Bonaire is so small, it was just 10 minutes from the main town or to the beach. The room was comfortable, and well appointed, plenty of space to hang up clothes and store luggage. The bed HUGE and and the bathroom was clean and had plenty of space for toiletries. The food very fresh and abundant - order one breakfast for two people!! I loved that we had a dedicated shelf in one of the 4 fridges to store our own food, and 2 very well equipped kitchens and outdoor Big Green Egg for grilling at our disposal! They even have "mini bar" treats available - sodas, beer, wine and snacks with an honor system for reporting. Very Friendly!! Two swimming pools and two kitchens for just 7 guest rooms made it very comfortable and cozy. We met another couple and shared a table with them for breakfast several times during the week we were there. HIGHLY, highly recommend the Goood Resort!!! Kim could not have been more accommodating with a late check out at no extra charge.

We stayed at Goood Resort for 7 nights with our kids of 5 and 7. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay as the place is tranquil, has very comfortable beds and a/c plus kitchen/fridge facilities are really good which made dining at home a very good option.
The location was great. Bonaire is a small island and all day trips are within 20 minute drive. It felt great to come back home where the altitude and slight breeze made it more comfortable than elsewhere on the island. After a day trip a dip in the pool was very refreshing. Rooms were cleaned every day and were consistently spotless.
The hosts were very welcoming and helped us with tips and tricks almost every day which made all our day trips a success. The hosts are involved in nature preservation, which we admired, we even joined a beach cleanup they organised!

This has become our new home away from home and we plan to come back! The couple who runs this paradise is so very friendly and truly everything is possible! They have made our babymoon so extraordinary comfortable. They also know exactly when and where to surf, eat or dive! They really made us feel at home. The breakfast is a lot, fresh and delicious and the rooms are cleaned daily. The communal kitchen is complete and gives you the freedom to keep and prepare your own snacks and food. There’s also a huge Big Green Egg in a nice porch to use for bbq. Big (magna)swimming pool and jacuzzi are perfect for cooling down. And enough chairs and hammocks to wind down. The place is very quiet, away from any big roads which also made it perfect for yoga or meditation. We really can’t think of anything that could have made our stay better...
Thank you both again so very much, you have made our babymoon unforgettable!
Love Chantal and Boudewijn

For those looking for a truely relaxed place, to unwind after a day exploring the island or for those who just want to chill out for a few days and enjoy a great pool lined with hammocks/lounge chairs and admire stunning views. The small resort is quietly situated on a hill, away from the 'beach hussle and bussle', but is in proximity to everything you might want to visit or do. Clean rooms, great beds and a fully-equipped kitchen. The welcoming and 'homey' vibe created by the staff and owners makes me definitely want to come back next time!

a couple with one 12 yrs old son. we spent 13 nights in April. For us it was an extremely pleasant stay. The resort is not perfect in the sense that some maintenance is needed here and there (for example a lose tile or warm water taking a bit to arrive etc.) but it's not the kind of things that for us make a difference. You will need a car to move around and go eat but in Bonaire you need a car regardless.
There is a furnished kitchen and you will be able to cook for yourself. You can park inside the gate. There are only a few rooms which for us is a plus. There were mosquitos but this is not due to the resort of course.
the wifi was a bit weak and spotty.
thank you very much Kim and Maria for a very pleasant stay

Our stay at Goood was more than Goood. Very nice atmosphere and looks better in real life than on the website photos. We even extended our stay to enjoy and relax a bit more. Very helpful staff as well. Doesn’t matter if you are looking for a diving spot or restaurant, they guide you in the right direction. Will definitely come back.

We celebrated our 10th anniversary in Bonaire and are so glad we chose The Goood Resort as our home for the trip. Kim welcomed us by email within a day a booking and inquired about whether we would need breakfast or a vehicle (yes to both!) . She also arranged for taxi pickup at the airport. When we arrived at the resort, I couldn’t stop calling it an “oasis,” with the hammocks blowing in the breeze and blue pools overlooking the desert city. The whole experience was so quiet, comfortable, and welcoming that we are already talking about coming back!

The Goood Resort is an exceptionally beautiful place to stay in Bonaire. The grounds are stunning and secluded, giving you the feeling of having your own villa in a tropical paradise. Kim, the inn keeper, is professional and friendly and truly cares about the quality of your stay. The rooms are clean and cool. I highly recommend the Goood Resort!

It's a great resort where you are going: private, cosy, complete. A rental car is highly recommended, I have very good experience with bonairerentacar (ask for one of the owners: Rob or Marijke), they will help you very good! Enjoy your stay at Goood Resort, Ankie will give you a very warm welcome and a perfect place for your holiday.
