Lots of reasons I would never stay at this property again. -Room service was supposed to come every other day. That didn't happen. We stayed for 8 nights. No cleaning. No trash taken out. Clean towels left in the room once but old towels not taken out. Clean towels a 2nd time when we asked for them. - Lumpy hard beds - Rooms open to the restaurant eating area so no privacy and very noise. - Microwave and toilet seat where broken in one of the rooms. They weren't willing/able to get them repaired. - No services for scuba divers. - Friendly owner.

My recent stay at your hotel was disappointing. The check-in experience was unfriendly, taking place outside at a not-too-clean table on the terrace. Both the terrace and the room itself were not clean, so I couldn't even walk barefoot. The bathroom lighting was inadequate and the room had two beds at different heights, which affected my comfort. Additionally, I found that the photos on Expedia are not representative of the current state of the hotel. This experience was far from what I expected from a hotel stay. I hope this feedback contributes to possible improvements in the future.

The hosts are a beautiful Surinamese family that take good care of the guests. They cook homemade food, and serve for dinner. The location is walking distance to anywhere in town... I felt at home here.

false information about the hotel.
Don't stay at this place. They have inaccurate information. They say that they are connected to a shopping center, that they have a private beach, that they have a 24 hour customer service, and free transportation to the airport from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm. None of this is true. They are not connected to a shopping center. They are in the middle of nowhere. The closest public beach is 8 min walking. They don't have anybody at the front desk. I got the room key from the cleaning lady. When I inquired about the free airport shuttle, I was told that I needed to stay for seven nights (It does not say this anywhere in the booking). Please don't stay here.

The noise level made it difficult to sleep. People sitting out in the common area with phones blaring until 11pm and it was as if they were in the room. I actually paid for another room at a different resort and left loosing money. Worth it!! There was gum on the wall that I didn't see right above the bed so when I was sitting on the bed and put my head back my hair got stuck in the gum. I pointed it out to the manager and she actually said..well maybe it came from your head. Sure because I walk around with gum stuck in my hair without noticing. There is a horrible smell that comes from the shower off and on. Not even a cup of coffee included with the rate. The bed is uncomfortable. I would never stay here again or recommend it.

The lodge has a central location but it is quiet enough due to the surroundings. It has a low key vibe and on Sunday you can sit around in the patio area as the restaurant is not open on that day. It is close to the town beaches. Internet was slow. There was a microwave, fridge, water heater and stovetop in the room. No coffee maker, but you can buy breakfast. Bathroom was clean. Bed was comfortable.

I will pass next time
Checked in with me and my family and because my reservation for two queen beds said 1 person, they gave my room away. She was difficult but when I said I would call Hotels.com and get a refund, she said I needed to pay $20 more dollars and she would put another bed in my room. The room was less than stellar, no top sheet, bedding was very old and the pillows were FLAT and we each got 1 flat pillow. It’s close to the airport and did suffice for our extended day in Bonaire but I will never stay there again. And there is only parking for 4 vehicles so I had to park down the street in the mud.
