Hilton Expands to Bonaire with the Opening of Delfins Beach Resort, a Tapestry Collection Hotel
BONAIRE and MIAMI – Today, Hilton (NYSE: HLT) announced its entry to Bonaire, a Caribbean Island in the Leeward Antilles and territory of the Netherlands, with the debut of Delfins Beach Resort Bonaire, Tapestry Collection by Hilton. The opening underscores Hilton’s accelerated growth in the Caribbean, where the company has more than 45 open hotels and approximately 35 additional hotels in various stages of development. Hilton’s Caribbean growth plays an integral role in its broader expansion strategy across the Caribbean and Latin America. Currently, Hilton welcomes guests at more than 270 hotels across more than 30 countries and territories in the region, and consistently seeks opportunities to introduce its brands in new markets. Earlier this month, Hilton arrived in Paraguay with Palmaroga Hotel Asuncion, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, its first hotel in the country.
“With its distinct character, Delfins Beach Resort Bonaire is a natural fit for Tapestry Collection by Hilton,” said Jenna Hackett, senior vice president and global leader, Hilton Lifestyle Brands. “Inspired by Bonaire’s pristine nature and its rich cultural identity, Delfins Beach Resort provides guests with spiritedly local cuisine and proximity to world-class diving that allow them to authentically experience the best of the island.”
The 148-room, oceanfront Delfins Beach Resort Bonaire, Tapestry Collection by Hilton offers guests immersive on-property experiences that highlight the authentic culture of Bonaire, a destination renowned for its immaculate diving. The on-resort dive center will provide guests everything they need for their underwater adventures and exploration. It also offers breathtaking views and top-tier amenities, including two outdoor pools and a pristine beach perfect for sunbathing and relaxing.
In addition to the island’s natural beauty, guests can savor elevated dining inspired by Bonaire’s rich culinary traditions and unwind and recharge at the resort’s beach spa and state of the art gym. For meetings and special events, the resort offers versatile meeting spaces including one ballroom for up to 150 guests and a boardroom for up to 15, making it an ideal venue for meetings and celebrations.
We are proud to partner with Hilton for this opening, combining the unique character of Delfins Beach Resort Bonaire with the iconic hospitality that Hilton is known for around the world,” said Chris Opgenoort, general manager, Delfins Beach Resort Bonaire, Tapestry Collection by Hilton. “With the island’s growing attention to the great potential of the American market and the increase in airlift, we have a partner in Hilton who positions us strongly in this source market. Hilton’s commercial advantage and broad scale, including its global Hilton Honors loyalty program, provides us with added value, including the opportunity to attract more American guests.”
As part of its aggressive growth strategy over the past decade in the Caribbean and Latin America, Hilton continues to broaden its reach in the region, adding new countries and territories and launching new brands. In the first quarter of 2025, Hilton plans to welcome Zemi Miches All-inclusive Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton, a brand-new 500-room property nestled on the pristine shores of Playa Esmeralda to its portfolio and later in the year, it plans to enter the U.S. Virgin Islands with the debut of Hampton by Hilton St. Thomas, followed by Dominica and Guyana in the next few years.
Tapestry Collection by Hilton is part of Hilton’s Collection brands, which also includes Curio Collection by Hilton. These brands enhance Hilton’s portfolio by offering unparallelled choice and iconic hotels to travelers seeking diverse and personalized experiences around the globe, regardless of stay occasion.
