About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Comfortable, beautiful oceanfront home.

This is a private spacious residence with beautiful furnishings, swimming pool and soaking spa right on the ocean. We have a caretaker and a greeter who will make sure any issues that come up are quickly resolved. We want you to enjoy your stay, say and write nice things, and more importantly come back.

Guests staying at our home receive a 10% discount for most pre-paid dive packages offered from Dive Friends Bonaire & Wana Dive at all locations.

The entire house is air conditioned with central air individual mini split Panasonic air conditioners and quiet ceiling fans. There are Samsung smart TV's in the Master Bedroom and another one in the Living Room. Wifi is available throughout the house. There are two Sherwood tuner/receivers which are B/T capable and will connect to your Apple music or Amazon music, or play your CD's upstairs and downstairs with Bose speakers inside and out.

Parking outside is easy with a wrap around driveway and room for 2+ cars or trucks off the road + 2 more along the road, 4 vehicles total.

Upstairs there is a large private master suite with private covered porch and study overlooking the sea. There are three additional private bedrooms with separate private entrances from secure gated courtyard that also have doors to the side yard leading to the pool and ocean.

The 2nd bedrooms is also accessible from main living area and the main house and is ideal for young children who need to be close to their parents or a guest with limited mobility who does not want to walk too far for the kitchen and living area.

There are two guest "safes" for valuables - one upstairs in the Master bedroom and the other downstairs between the 3rd & 4th bedrooms. The whole house is alarmed with "stay" and "away" functions and key pads throughout the house.

One of the four bedrooms have large twin beds which are usually pushed together for couples. We have extra twin sheets if you need to separate the beds. The Master bedroom has a California King and the 3rd & 4th bedrooms have Queen size beds. All the bedrooms have high quality Auping brand mattresses from the Netherlands.

We provide bath & beach towels & bed linens for a full house for a week. If you stay longer, our Laundry room has a larger American full size washer and separate electric dryer. There are three separate hot water heaters for the bedroom showers, laundry & kitchen. The master bathroom also has a large bathtub and separate shower stall.

The house is close enough to walk to two different bar/restaurants, and two beaches located a few minutes walk away in the safe Belnam neighborhood. We split our week up between cooking at home, walking next door, and driving to various restaurants on the Bonaire.

The new large open kitchen includes high end Siemens appliances, with an induction electric cook top with a downdraft exhaust and a large separate U-Line ice maker. We have ample special cookware available for the induction cook top. There is a blender, toaster, coffee bean grinder, large and small french press coffee pots, a Mr. Coffee drip coffee maker, and electric water boiler pot for tea or the French presses. There is also a dishwasher, large refrigerator and large freezer. We have plenty of plates, dishes, bowls and cutlery. There are detailed instructions in the house for operating the appliances.

Our swimming pool and soaking spa (not heated) is right outside off the patio just outside living area facing the ocean. There is no real real shallow part in the pool except on stairs - the rest of the pool is about 5' deep.

The veranda covered outdoor dining area has a ceiling fan and lighting. There is a new outdoor high-end propane gas BBQ. We have ample comfortable furnishings, inside & out. The dining and outdoor furniture cushions were new at the end of 2022.

Divers & snorkelers will love the equipment rinse sinks and private stairs down into the ocean. There is also a vented outdoor dive closet to secure your gear while it is drying and you are out. The house is right on the Windsock and North Belnam dive sites. The reef is healthy and the fish life is abundant. Night diving here is a lot of fun.

You can watch the infrequent planes land at nearby Flamingo airport while looking out over Klein Bonaire and north towards Kralendijk & Republiek neighborhoods. The airport is not a very busy one. The sound of the flights landing is usually not as loud as the tide coming in and breaking against the rock ledge the property sits on. None of my guests have ever been disturbed by the planes - they are actually fun to watch approach from the west.

The house is next door to the Bellafonte Hotel which is a very quiet and good neighbor. Overall the house is very comfortable, clean, and well maintained, with magnificent ocean and stunning sunset views, an excellent cross breeze, modern amenities, and nice furniture. Please ask any questions you may have.

Outstanding location with new kitchen
We loved the stay. Between the recently remodeled kitchen, access to snorkeling in the ocean down a few steps off the back of the property, and a gorgeous view, we would absolutely stay here again (and we rarely want to visit the same place twice!) We dove with Wanna Dive across the street and had a positive experience with a discount arranged by Chris. Two thumbs up.

Great house with mucho room!
This home was a great fit for our group of divers. The bedrooms, while they could use some updating, were large and private, especially the master which spanned the upper floor and had a lanai and office. The common space was well outfitted to accommodate at least 8 - 10 people. Kitchen was stocked with spices, and all needed for cooking, as well as the outdoor gas grill. Pool pool was lovely as was the patio and lanai, with a super. Jew of the sunset. We dove off the patio to the same reef as windsock and bachelors beach. Wanna Dive, right across the street was perfect for tank and gear rental. Great location! Minutes walking to our favorite food truck, cactus blue, and close to town and all the best dive sites. We will definitely look to book here again!

Perfect house for families
This house is perfect for 2-3 families. The process of booking to the end was easy. There was never a problem with communication even though the owner was not on site. There's not much more we could have asked for. We do highly recommend this house.

Private Oasis on the ocean
We were traveling with our two adult sons and their partners. This house was perfect for our group. We enjoyed every aspect of this property and the stunning view of the ocean. The kitchen was well appointed and we cooked several family dinners. Villa Kasteel is in a great location; easy access to south shore diving, town and the airport. You can snorkel or dive right off the stairs on the property. There is an outdoor shower and rinse tanks (which we used daily). The home owner and property manager were quick to respond when we had questions. We used several of the restaurant recommendations. Foodies was fantastic. We had a great holiday trip and it was hard to leave!

Ocean front Bonaire home
This property was clean, with a gorgeous view and nice outside sitting area that overhangs the ocean. The pool was small, but typical for Bonaire. Steps to the ocean were handy for diving/snorkeling with an easy, sandy entry. Beds were comfortable. Check in & out were smooth with Bassje being quite thorough & communicating efficiently. Some doors were not in great working order and my daughter was actually not able to get back into her room as the only entrance was through the bathroom & it was firmly stuck in position. This home is NOT well stocked with products. Plenty of towels, but we were out of dishwasher soap after one day, hand soap only in 2/3 bathrooms & not even available in the third. No laundry soap, cleaning spray for the counters, or any additional shower toiletries, so bring them! We did not even have enough trash bags for our week stay, but I was tired of buying additional products at the grocery. The house is quite beautiful in many ways, however, it is overdue for updates considering the nightly price.

This house was absolutely beautiful with stunning views! It was in a great location and close to many restaurants. The best part about the house is that snorkeling, right off the back deck! We look forward to staying here again on the next trip to Bonaire.

Unbeatable View
The view is even better than the pictures! The double pool adds to the relaxation. The home is older but in good shape and the remodeled kitchen is fabulous. The ac units also work really (not always the case from other experiences we've had). We really appreciated all of the extra towels and laundry for our extended time on Bonaire. The steps provide amazing access to the ocean but are in need of repair and removal of the fire coral. Both understable for a property living on the edge of the water. Make sure you understand the layout before booking. Our kids were cool with staying off the courtyard, but it can slippery after a rain and dark if you forget the lights. Overall great location and very comfortable accommodations.
