Easy access to/from airport. Lovely dock with sunset views and great snorkeling and plunge pool. We used the dining decos list to book 4 awesome dinners and there’s a restaurant and bar next door. Room was clean and well equipped with a small balcony. Staff were very hospitable and there when you needed something.

We just returned from a wonderful stay at the Bellafonte in Bonaire and couldn't be more pleased with our experience.
The location was perfect for exploring the island while still providing a peaceful retreat. What truly made each day special was the ocean view, particularly the beautiful sunset each evening.
The facilities and room were well-maintained and provided all the comforts needed for a pleasant stay. The oceanfront setting created a constant backdrop of waves and sea breezes.
Bellafonte offers that perfect combination of serenity, security, and natural beauty that makes for a memorable vacation. The location provides convenience without sacrificing privacy, and those sunset views alone are worth the trip.
Quiet, well-run, friendly and attentive staff ready to provide anything you need, private access to ocean

Amazing property with a pier that leads you right into the perfect water, very close to the airport! Comfortable beds and good ac. The staff help set me up with a tour and allowed me to freshen up after a adventure tour and before my flight. Highly recommend!

We stayed in The Bellafonte for a week. We absolutely love this place! There is no sand beach but you can jump in a water from the pier and see corals, different fish and sea turtles. The hotel is clean and quiet. The staff is very friendly and helpful.

The hotel is located on the water, which allows for swimming, snorkeling, and diving right from the pier. The pier is also shaded, which makes lounging a relaxing experience. There is a dive shop across the street for all water activities, and dive tanks are kept onsite.
The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, which made my stay very enjoyable.
