Van der Valk Plaza Beach & Dive Resort Bonaire - All Inclusive

Best in Bonaire! One of our favorite vacation destinations!

Amazing property. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Great location!! Easy to rent a scooter right from property and scoot to town or take scenic drives up and down the coast. Gorgeous! The snorkeling right off the resort beach is some of the best so many fish species and the coral was in pretty good condition given the state of coral globally these days. Super convenient to set up dive trips from the resort too. Restaurant was really really good. If you like fresh fish and sushi you will love this food. Even so they had great beef, lamb and chicken options every meal too. Every dish is prepared with quality ingredients we never ate so healthy on vacation!! And the pool is absolutely one of the top pools we’ve been to on vacation. It is huge! And plenty of chairs and umbrellas at oil or beachside. Never have to wake at 4am to save a spot! We look forward to seeing the continued renovations for updating too. They are doing a GREAT job with the decor it is so upscale and just beautiful. We hope to return again soon I hope!! You will not go wrong with the plaza!

Staff was very good.

Muy bonito el lugar. Merecen 5 Estrellas. El servicio al cliente es fantastico amaria volver a regresar

The staff in the restaurant and bar was incredible and the food was good. Upon arrival, the room was good except for the mattress topper and the air conditioner was not set upon arrival. Other than that, it was a nice resort.

Amenities are nice but the rooms have water damage and the smell of drainage comes back up into the rooms. The toilet paper holder and safe were broken too. This place is also under construction. Front desk and people were nice

I'm very glad I chose to come with my son as we got Open Water certified last year and this was our first set of non-training dives. We did six total and should have probably done three more as there are so many dive locations you can't get them all in within a five day stay. You will want to come back to Bonaire to get all the dives you can. The staff that work the dive shop are great. Super friendly, great personalities and awesome guides. Would book with them again if I return to Bonaire. The resort is the best on in Bonaire for location. Very clean and very well put together. Only draw back is it is extremely limited for people who like to spend most of their time at the actual resort. My wife would have been bored if she came as she doesn't dive or gamble. Only one restaurant which is buffet only. The food and seating is excellent, but after a few days it is repetitive. There is a ton of construction going on (which you don't hear) so I'm hoping they are building other options like most all-inclusive resorts have to offer. On the same note, no events or shows occur there. There is a casino which is in a weird location that does have the only local poker game at 9pm every night. One roulette table, I think three other table games, no craps, tons of slots. Stayed in the "old rooms" but I got probably the best room in the whole place. 2102 I stayed and the view from the balcony is probably the best room view I ever had. Pool, ocean, and restaurant all viewable.

We loved it and great deal.

The food is the same food daily. The fruits were sour. There is no room service. The drinks are not real fruit drinks. The toilet is by the front door. The best thing about this place is the operations manager Herman.

Van der Valk is an amazing hotel! The amenities, staff and the chefs were great. We are planning to return very soon. A special thank you to Sena (beach bar), Maika (front lobby), Anika (restaurant hostess) and Agnes (Yacht Charters) for making this vacation an unforgettable experience.

We love bon air, the people in Bonaire are wonderful as so is the La plaza

Loved this place.

Great vacation spot with kids

Booked a 2 bedroom room on Expedia. It was just recently constructed- clean, modern, spacious with even a small kitchen, washing machine and large patio. Beds were very comfortable and the AC unit quiet and more than sufficient. Room was cleaned nicely daily. Pleasantly surprised that our booking was all inclusive for meals. The food here was superb with fresh fish, fruit and an impressive desert selection. Construction is ongoing. So there is some noise and some of the rooms need renovating. Common areas such as pool, lobby, and dining area carried an appealing modern island decor. The small reef just outside the hotel was easily accessible and contained a good variety of fishes. Great place to learn to scuba as the waters were calm and there is a separate dive pool. I would recommend this hotel.

Everything was literally perfect! The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The property is amazing for both diving convenience and lounging pool or beachside. Food experience was 5 star all the way too. Location is super convenient - just 10 minutes from the airport.

Very friendly staff, plenty of food choices in the buffet area. Beach is more rocky than sandy but the pools are nice. Nice, quiet resort that's close to the airport and some shopping

Property & Facilities are good but the wifi service is very poor. Could notmake any connections.

Only one thing, we left postcards with staff in front desk, to be send by them. Postcards never arrived.

Slow staff, nobody at front desk during check out

Just loved my stay here
