BelMar was clean, the staff was friendly, but that was about it. Although on Bonaire I am not sure that the other choices are any better. 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

September 2004 will be our 8th year at The Bel-Mar Apartments. I hesitate to let people know what a great place this is as I don't want to lose my "spot"! We have a ground floor 2 bedroom, 2 bath apartment with our porch/patio one step from the ocean. There is a dock there for easy entry into the water.... more

We spent almost 2 weeks at the BelMar in June 2002 and never had a complaint. The apartment was more than adequate for our needs. The staff at the dive shop were professional and helpful. The housekeeping staff did everything promised. The house reef was not as pristine as we would have liked but the damage from hurricane Lenny was... more
