Designed in the style of an antique Spanish ship, La Balandra offers a unique setting unmatched on Bonaire. With a breezy covered dining deck on a jetty extending over the water, La Balandra Bar and Restaurant delights guests with fresh cuisine, breathtaking views of the resort’s private white sand beach, and a charming nautical decor.
Sea-Side Dining
Executive Chef Rodrigo Sanchez brings Balandra’s menu to life with fresh, in-season ingredients delivered right to the restaurant’s dock.
Dinner guests have the opportunity to experience over-the-water “aquarium seats” towards the bow of the ship, where LCD lights penetrate through the water to reveal sea creatures swimming by.
