Marvieni Sommer was amazing! A true Bonairian in warmth and hospitality! She made all our excursions amazing! I wish there were more Bonarian guests so we could experience more of the essence of Bonaire but the staff was amazing and friendly. The place is beautiful and the activities are very fun! We also absolutely loved the steel pans the singer that sang in papiamento! Also we loved the great island music that was played at the bar! We will definitely visit again.

The property is located in a nice neighborhood. You could walk to restaurants, but if you are getting all-inclusive no need. I recommend renting the golf cart and driving to Jibe City, 1000 steps, Flamingo sanctuary. Bring water shoes for the beach entry area. Good snorkeling and shore diving from the property, as well as dive shop on the premises. They are upgrading the property but not intrusive.

Staff, food and rooms are beautiful!! I am a scuba diver and dive shop with "Spider" and "Yousef" are the two staff divers I highly recommend. Rent a golf cart and visit the town, especially nice shore diving just south of the resort- list of shore dive sites and a freighter Himmler to dive on. Salt Pier is fun diving too.Chef made food-fantastuc. Visit Gio's I e cream shop has the greatest home made ice cream. Dark rich lactose free ice cream too. I still miss it. LOL.

One of the best vacation I've ever had. First off the pool area was gorgeous, I stayed here for 6 nights and enjoyed every sunset I could experience. My room was sea view, it was very very spacious and clean although it wasn't the newly renovated but I couldn't complain because I wake up every morning to an amazing view. The staff at the snack bar Carlos, Nigel and the other buffed dude was always nice, the restaurant staff has already recognized and address me my name after two days which shows the service here is excellent. After all it's an all inclusive restaurant and the food from breakfast, lunch and dinner did not disappoint. The property was sparkling clean, you can see how every employee works hard to keep this place beautiful. I rented a golf cart which is probably the best decision I made since the property is in the middle of everything, you go left it's the town center, you go right it's the airport and gorgeous beach. I'll be coming back soon and I'm definitely staying here again, hopefully the gym will be open by then. Kudos to all Van Der Valk employees, ya'll the best!

First time to Bonaire and stayed at this resort for a week. Overall, it was a great trip. Only downfalls were the bed wasn’t great…wasn’t a mattress, more like a 4” pad. There was construction going on in the room next door which started most mornings by 7-7:30am. The food was ok at best…ended up having the majority of our meals in town which were all delicious. On the plus side, it’s a beautiful resort and very clean…always groundskeepers out and about, security and staff were super friendly, the resort is about a 20 min walk to town. Beaches were gorgeous, snorkeling was amazing, and had an incredible time exploring the entire island!

The Plaza Resort was beautiful. Great location right on the water for fabulous snorkeling/diving. The property was clean and everything (e.g. AC, TV, WIFI, plumbing, electric/outlets, etc...,) worked properly. The hotel staff are amazing, multilingual, friendly and helpful in every aspect(it's their job to make sure you have a great stay and they take their job seriously). The all inclusive food and drinks were also high quality/top notch/very tasty (although top shelf liquor is not included). The beach and pools were clean and beautiful. Lots of things to do, activities and tours offered onsite at hotel. Airport transportation arranged through hotel. Quite simply one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at while on vacation!

Great property that is under renovation and changes. Just know that below booking. Toucan is excellent to have for onsite diving and just great all around. As for dining there is a general lab of allergen information, as almost evening just states the name of the dish, except for one small area labeled Gluten Free (3 dishes and one bread set out). For those with allergen issues you have to wait until one of the staff who cooks let's you know what is safe at each meal

The overall is not bad but the premises need some love.For exemple the rooms are bit up too much for the price,the beds at the beach are disgusting and the some areas inside the property just look abandoned. The new restaurant is beautiful but unfortunately they prepare the food so quick that everything you need to send back to be cooked more.

It is a beautiful property, but is in the process of undergoing renovations. The room we stayed in was in the older section and while it was well maintained, it did show its age, was blandly decorated, and needed more conveniences, such as hooks and luggage racks. The balcony was beautiful and huge(room for a lounge chair or hammock-which would have been awesome had one been out there) with a lovely view of the marina.
