    Great facilities, Caroline and Vincent (owners) want to make your stay the best it can be. They are on premises daily. Very clean and quiet. Freshly renovated and everything works fine. Full fridge and stove + access to BBQ by the pool. Private deck and nice pool. Fenced parking and dive lockers with rinse tanks. 3 minute drive to Buddy dive for boat dives and tanks swap and extensive shop. Si vous êtes du Québec ou francophone c'est un bonus. Ils sont du Québec. On y retournera c'est certain, un vrai trouvaille. Pas de raison d'aller ailleurs. We'll go back, a perfect place. No reason to go anywhere else. Claude & Dorothy

    Vincent and Caroline made our stay a wonderful experience. They were thoughtful, helpful and pleasant to work with throughout our stay. Our rooms and location were perfect for us and the diving, as always, was exceptional. We will book for next year soon!

    Perfect SCUBA Resort My husband and I just spent 9 nights at Coral Paradise for our 25th Anniversary and our longest SCUBA vacation to date. Caroline and Vincent own and operate this boutique resort and are perfect hosts! They were so helpful in every way - from arranging our rental vehicle and advanced open water certification course, to recommending restaurants, and explaining nuances of the many dive sites, it was truly concierge service throughout the stay. They are two of the nicest people I have ever met! The resort is very quiet and peaceful, and it is in walking distance of two other resorts with large restaurants and boat diving options. There are also walkable shore diving options, and the resort is situated somewhat in the middle of the coast so that the drives are short whether going up or down the coast. The facilities at the resort are very convenient for rinsing and storing gear between dives. The rooms are comfortable and have functional kitchens, and there is a supermarket a block away. I am super happy we chose their resort.

    I just returned from a week at Coral Paradise and it was wonderful. The owners were awesome at communicating details and arrangements. Once we arrived, Caroline and Vincent gave us a warm welcome, provided us some invaluable tips around the island, and even acknowledged my birthday! The amenities were everything we needed (in-room and dive storage / cleaning area), the rooms / bathroom are spotless and modern, the location was ideal to Buddy's Dive and not far from downtown, there's even a fabulous restaurant/bar and snorkel site behind the resort you can walk to. They said their guest arrive as strangers and leave as friends, and that is exactly how I feel!

    Wow! Words cannot describe the experience at Coral Paradise. Caroline and Vincent are absolutely the best hosts. They will take care of your every need and go over the top to make sure your stay is enjoyable, clean, and fulfilling. Their personal touch really adds to the experience and their friendly disposition makes it feel like home. I will certainly be returning again someday in the future.

    Stayed at Coral Paradise for 2 weeks in November and it was incredible. From the wonderful communication during booking (I would say the best I have experienced) to the warm greeting and the way Caroline & Vincent do everything they can to make your vacation the best it can be, there is nothing I can think of that can be improved. Resort is small and personable, the pool area is large and well set up with with lots of area to relax in sun or shade. Rooms are well set up and include everything you need. The office also has a small shop that sells an amazing amount of items you might need, from bug spray to dive gear. There is a supermarket just down the street that carries pretty much anything you need for food & alcohol. As an extra service Caroline took care of booking all of our dinner reservations!!! In 13 years of dive travel, probably our favourite spot.

    Coral Paradise Resort was clearly designed to be the most convenient diving experience! It started right when we arrived at the airport. As soon as w collected our baggage we were met by the truck rental company who took us straight to the resort - where our truck rental was already waiting. The resort owners waited up for our later arrival and gave us a helpful orientation. They even helped us find late night food which was just around the corner. A perfect introduction to the island! The location has convenient access to a small market with a large enough selection to support simple meals and snacks. The resort accommodations made it simple to prepare your own food. There's a great grill area/outdoor kitchen and they have all the dish-ware one could need, even Tupperware containers! The owners were very thoughtful in curating these spaces for the family that wants to be self-sufficient. The owners were friendly and always happy to make recommendations. It is clear that they wanted us to have a wonderful stay. They were available to answer any questions we had and they even provided a cell phone just in case they weren't in the office. They helped us plan out our days effectively and reviewed the map to make sure we were comfortable with the area. There was even a reef close-by for when we were feeling lazy but still wanted to get out! We purchased a dive package with Buddy Dive and found the drive thru tank refill to be extremely efficient. We only ended up using one of our boat dives since we enjoyed diving on our own, but they offer several boat dives per day. The dive lockers at Coral Paradise make it convenient to clean equipment and store it securely.

    What a great, friendly place. They do everything to make your stay the best. The diving and service are unparalleled. Stay here and you won't ever regret it.

    Wonderful time on Bonaire. Vincent and Louise were great hosts who helped with anything we needed. The resort was quiet, just 90 steps from great snorkeling, and all set up for diving. Rooms are comfortable for 2 with kitchenette and bbq. Also easy walk to ocean view restaurants.

    Just returned from wonderful first visit to Bonaire, in no small part due to our hosts at Coral Paradise Resort. Caroline and Vincent were most welcoming and made our arrival the easiest we've ever had entering another country! They arranged for the AB-Dive rental driver to meet us at the airport and take us to Coral P. where our truck (yes, you need one!) was waiting for us. After providing refreshing drinks, instructions about our room and the island in general, we got settled in. Though called “resort” C.P.R. feels more like a small neighborhood with staggered patios separated by privacy landscaping - all overlooking the beautifully clean pool where you can gather with others to share your days adventures. 3 day-a-week maid service keeps rooms extra clean and inviting. No neighbor noise as walls are thick and solid. For divers and snorkelers alike, a short stroll brings you to a nearby dive shop and entry point or a 5 minute drive to the “Andrea I & II” water entry. Coral Paradise Resort is a gem of a place if traveling to Bonaire! Looking forward to returning and spending more time.

    This is the 6th time I've stayed at Coral Paradise and loved it as much as every previous stay. This is a wonderful, relaxing place that is owned and operated by the very best people, Caroline and Vincent. I return to stay here every year because I can truly relax. Nothing like floating on my back in the pool looking up at the clouds. The unit is very well-equipped - kitchen, bath, bed, towels, patio and clean. I really couldn't want for more. Any questions are kindly and graciously answered by Caroline and/or Vincent. They help in any way they can and have a wealth of knowledge about the surrounding waters and town. I'll be back next year and the year after...

    There is not enough to be said about this hotel. It's simply the best. Is you're looking for a great room, kitchenette, great service, then you're golden. It's that simple. You're free to do what you want with no expectations with owners that care more for their guests that any corporate location would.

    This is our 4th trip back to Coral Paradise, and for obvious reasons, Vince and Caroline make you feel like family, we have never ever had the slightest thing to say that would improve our stay their. The rooms have all been renovated, absolutely beautiful, not that they were by any means bad before, I'm guessing Vince got bored during Covid. I could go on and on about everything that Coral Paradise and Bonaire has to offer, but just read the reviews folks. I can't say enough about it all. Will definitely be back at Coral. Thank you Caroline and Vince once again for making us feel like family. My only negative comment I can say is that we left 30°C to come home to 30°F weather and snow.
