Belmar has a satellite dive shop that is in partnership with Buddy Dive. You get all the same benefits of the drive-thru air/nitrox pickup but you're in a much more cozy place. Every room has an ocean view and you can be as social or as anti-social as you like. The bedrooms were small but we spent 85% of our... more

I guess two out of three times is not bad. When we checked in no informed us that there phone system was down. It took us three days of fustration to find this out. This would not have been a problem but we were trying to communicate with another group on the island. The front desk was not as helpfull... more

With the right expectations (and If you must go to Bonaire) Belmar is the best value. for the island selection of accommodations, Belmar is well above average. Great value for the money.

The biggest problem is that there is no air conditioning in the main living area, which would be okay if you could open the sliding doors. However, there are NO SCREENS and tons of... more

What a great stay at Bel-Mar!!!! Perfect setup for divers. Super nice staff and clean , island-esque accomodations, excellent setup for drying gear on the balcony - balcony had a lovely ceiling fan, great view, we spent lots of time there just hanging out vs. inside. The ONLY drawbacks are that the tile floors can get a bit slick and... more

My husband and I have been to Bonaire twice before and stayed at the Plaza resort. This summer was the first time we were bringing our boys (ages 7 and 10), so on our last visit we went to several properties (5 or 6) to check out which one would best suit our family. Once we saw Belmar, we knew... more
