Pretty, attractive, or pleasant to look at. One of the most versatile compliments in Spanish because it works for people, places, and things alike without sounding over the top. You can call a baby, a sunset, or your date "bonito/bonita" and it lands perfectly every time.
Examples
“¡Qué bonito lugar!”
“What a beautiful place!”
“Estás muy bonita hoy.”
“You look really pretty today.”
