Red Palm Village is best for couples, solo travellers, and small families who want a laid-back, nature-filled base on Bonaire with simple comforts, a friendly community feel, and easy access to the island’s famous diving and wind sports. The atmosphere is relaxed and outdoorsy, with colourful, small-scale “glamping-style” accommodation set among gardens and palms around a central pool. It is located on Kaminda Sorobon, the scenic road running between Kralendijk and the Sorobon/Lac Bay area, right alongside a protected natural landscape.

Facilities and services - the heart of the resort is the outdoor pool area, described by the property as a central social space surrounded by palms and sunbeds, suitable for cooling off between activities or relaxing with a drink.

Food and drink is casual and community-oriented rather than formal hotel dining. The on-site concept includes an honesty bar, a self-service drinks spot built around trust and a relaxed “help yourself” island rhythm, ideal for an easy sundowner by the pool without waiting for table service. For meals, the resort is associated with a poolside restaurant called Lekker Thuis, which has a cosy, “at home” feel and serves dinners in the middle of the property by the pool.

Outdoor space is a major part of the appeal. The resort is set among greenery and gardens, with shaded verandas and terraces encouraging an open-air routine. It is also described as eco-friendly and child-friendly, with a simple, respectful atmosphere that suits guests who like being outdoors and don’t need glossy, high-rise resort styling.

For families, listings commonly mention a children’s playground. Barbecue facilities are also frequently referenced, reinforcing the self-catering, outdoor-living style.

For getting around and exploring, third-party listings highlight practical touches such as free parking, property-wide Wi-Fi, and bike rental, which fits Bonaire well for short trips and low-key exploring.

Water sports are a major reason people choose this base. The resort is repeatedly positioned for easy access to Bonaire’s diving, snorkelling, windsurfing, kitesurfing, and broader outdoor activities, with the location on the Kaminda Sorobon corridor making it convenient for days at Sorobon/Lac Bay as well as heading back towards the west coast for diving and sunsets.
