Calabash Cove nestled into a gentle hillside along the private Bonaire Bay offers old Caribbean charm with today's amenities.
General Facility Description
Calabash Cove is the first boutique Inn and Sanctuary of its kind enjoying a most idyllic northwestern location of the island in the sheltered bay of Bonaire Estate. Built on a hillside sloping gently towards the water's edge of a calm bay washed by the waters of the Caribbean Sea, the prevailing winds provide natural coolness from the ocean. The sea is turquoise with a green background of the tropical vegetation from across the bay and views of Walcott Island. Your own private beach plus a coral reef in easy distance make it a truly exceptional site for resting, reflecting, and dreaming.
The main buildings of the hotel such as the entrance, the lobby, restaurant, bar, sanctuary, and infinity pool with waterfall, lie on a slope with the Villas sprawled in midst of lush vegetation all overlooking the sunset side of the compass. The buildings surrounding the Villas make striking use of natural materials such as exotic wood and stone what can only be described as "paradise found" of earth, wind, light, and water. The layout of the natural gardens are under the care of one of the finest landscape architects in the Caribbean to ensure, capture, and optimize its natural beauty to maintain total peace and tranquility.
