What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Perfectly Appointed Condo

The condo I stayed in was beautifully designed and provided excellent kitchen appliances and dinnerware. It truly felt like a home away from home, with a great view and decor reflecting Bonaire's nature. I particularly loved the screened patio, which made for relaxing moments after a day of diving. There's even a large-screen TV and books on Caribbean marine life to enhance the experience.

Delicious Dining Options

During my stay, I enjoyed meals at the fine restaurant on site and also found plenty of other great restaurants within walking distance. The breakfast at the nearby Breezes 'n Bites was wonderful, providing a great start to my day of diving and exploration.

Convenient Amenities

One of the standout features for me was the availability of a large-screen TV and a selection of books and games in the condo. After an exciting day of diving, it was refreshing to unwind with some entertainment in the comfort of my own space.

Spacious and Functional

The bathroom in the condo was quite spacious, featuring a large walk-in shower with excellent water pressure. It made getting ready after a day in the water so much easier. The thoughtfulness in the layout made it comfortable and convenient.

I had a fantastic stay at this resort! The studio room was just perfect for our needs, featuring a full kitchen that made cooking meals super convenient and budget-friendly. Although the queen-size bed felt a bit small for us at times, we enjoyed a good night's sleep. The overall cleanliness and value for money were definitely highlights. On the downside, I did find the dining options slightly limited and the water pressure in the shower wasn't always consistent.

Our stay at Sand Dollar was exceptional! The friendly and efficient staff made sure we felt welcomed from the moment we arrived. The bathrooms and rooms were always spotless, providing us with a comfortable environment. However, the resort is still under renovation from hurricane damage, which is something to consider. Overall, we found great value for the price, especially considering the stunning views and access to dive sites.

Our stay was very enjoyable with plenty of space for the family in our updated condo. The location was ideal, right on the reef, making it perfect for snorkeling. However, the lack of housekeeping throughout the week was a downside, and we encountered some issues with tracking down extra supplies. Overall, it was a great experience with a few minor inconveniences.

We had a wonderful stay at Sand Dollar, where the ambiance makes you feel like you're in paradise. The location is unbeatable, right on the Bari reef, perfect for snorkeling. Our unit was modern and well-maintained, but there were minor issues with some kitchen items, and the refrigerator could use an upgrade. Despite that, we had an amazing time lounging in hammocks and enjoying the friendly wildlife around the property.
