The Bellafonte is very nice as well.
The Bellafonte – Luxury Oceanfront Hotel Bonaire
The Bellafonte has a prime oceanfront location, stunning views, and relaxed atmosphere, it's your perfect boutique hideaway in Bonaire.thebellafonte.com
Now that the OP has answers, at the risk of going OT I'll say I wholeheartedly agree with this. I have tried various options, but I have to admit a nostalgia for a ratty beat-up pickup truck, basic lodging with a place to cook some meals, sad-looking vegetables and meat in the old Cultimara market ....
Anyone else remember the skinny Suzuki vans?
Wife and I just returned from a multi-week "nostalgic" experience. We had friends who stayed at the new Chogogo resort. Having visited there for drinks and dinner and after seeing their rooms, we decided that this would be our "go to" place for any trip 2 weeks or under. Dive Friends at Sand Dollar right next door is the clincher. No need to even consider the Chogogo on-site shop which was geared toward a less-serious crowd.
I hear ya. Our first Bonaire trip was our honeymoon. Although we didn't go crazy with splurging, we treated ourselves well. It was only on our second trip to Bonaire, this time with some friends, that our friends introduced us to the shabby Bonaire that we grew fond of. The great thing about Bonaire is there is something for everyone. Enjoy your special occasion trip!
How was the restaurant?
Chogogo being affiliated with TUI airline, were Chogogo's guests mostly Dutch?
