We couldn't have asked for a better place on Bonaire. The location is perfection. It's just a short walk to downtown for ice cream or dinner. The villa is quiet and clean. The kitchen is perfectly stocked to cook all your meals. The house reef was our favorite place to snorkel on the island.

Lovely waterfront villa. Will return. Walkable to shops and restaurants. Divers paradise. Wildlife was everywhere and fascinating. My only criticism would be that there are no bathroom outlets which makes hair drying difficult.

Great cottage for one or two couples

The house was everything as represented. The kitchen was very well equipped. Enjoyed the use of the Weber grill. Had a nice assortment of outdoor seating.Never tried the TV's. The location was convenient to good restaurants and a grocery store was very near by.The snorkling in front was some of the best we saw.Had a small problem withe door lock, but everything else excellent.

Everything was nearly exactly as described in the listing. Captain dons was literally the best entry for snorkeling - so much to see just off the dock. Only thing that would have made this property absolutely perfect would have been a water entry from the back door.I’ve stayed in many vrbos with larger updated kitchens but have to say THIS WAS THE BEST STOCKED KITCHEN! Every little appliance including coffee maker, blender and pots and pans! I cook a lot so this was perfect! Lots of plates, every glass imaginable for any type of beverage! All the acs and fans worked perfect!Great area to wash, hang and store safely our dive gear with locks, hangers and even a wash bin to clean our BCDs!Yes there was construction noise that we were told of prior to booking but they started promptly at 7:30 and were done by 3:15 nearly weekday. Kind of got used to it. Downside was the concrete dust. Most of that should be done soon. Again don’t mind bc we were in the water as much as we could get in! The entry - exit by the “cliff” dive spot which is on the resort property had the gate closed after about 5:30-6pm that we didn’t really know about. Just keep that in mind. U will have to turn around. However - At that exit - right across the street is the grocery store. convenient! The BEDS! Were THE most comfortable of any Vrbo we ever used! Such a plus! Despite the construction noise and the dust - this was a great stay! Appreciate the ease of host communication!

Two nice separate bedrooms upstairs, each with bath. Additional full bath downstairs. Downstairs was a bit tight but we hardly spent any time there. Great backyard with covered table and chairs, a covered lounging area and gravel yard in the sun looking out at Klein Bonaire.

Great location - great property

This property is in a great location... it was perfect for my husband and I for our visit. We were expecting another couple to stay with us, but they got covid just prior to their leaving, so they didn't make it. The house was really great for the two of us. The outside space, completely out of the sun, is smaller than we would have liked. The bedrooms are large enough and comfortable with plenty of closet space for clothes; the kitchen is nicely equipped (not just plastic plates and cups), knives, pots, pans, blender, etc. We had an issue with ants and needed more hangers, and the property managers were super responsive and helpful about rectifying those issues. All in all, a great property.

Property on the water in Hato

Reasonable property for the price, nice to have the water view, although no access directly to the water. One has to walk down to Captain Dons, the neighbors will not allow access. Living space smaller than it appears in the pictures, and the furnishings aren’t the most comfortable. There is no eating table per se inside, the dinning table is outside where it is quite hot in the afternoon. The king bed is quite comfortable, and the air conditioning worked well. The rinse tank leaked, the property manager provided bins a bit into our stay to rinse our gear. It hadn’t been repaired by the time we left ( 3 weeks). Ok for a couple, possibly tight quarters for 2 couples.

Fantastic Vacation!

We loved our stay at Villa #5. After arriving, I noticed that everything was extremely clean. The property kitchen and bathrooms looked like they were just remodeled. We liked the location on the island for snorkeling and getting around. When we returned from time away, it was always nice to get back to the beautiful surroundings of 'home'. Our stay was quiet and relaxing, no extra noise around, the walls are thick. Our hosts always responded if we had a question, but otherwise they did not bother us. We definitely miss our morning coffee on the upper deck, we loved the parrots and song birds. We ate out once a day, otherwise we enjoyed the well equipped kitchen for our meals. There is a newly built store across the street, they do not have a sign up yet......but we figured it out. We would not give Rum Runners a high rating overall, poor service. We did enjoy the 'take out', thin crust pizza, served at lunch or dinner there. For a fast, delicious, meal check out Between Two Buns.....open for breakfast and lunch.

This was a great villa for our 2 week vacation. There were at least 5 restaurants we could easily walk to for dinner. We had our own parking spot at villa and there was additional space for second vehicles if required within the gated area. the views from the property were excellent. Each bedroom had an excellent ensuite bathroom. The railhead shower heads however need replacing -both upstairs bathrooms leaked from the centre hole so it was like standing under a hosepipe rather than a rain shower. The downstairs shower worked well. The beds upstairs were very comfortable. Plenty of hanging space and hangers as well as shelves. The ground floor was the area that most disappointed. The Futon was very uncomfortable both for sleeping and sitting. Sitting was not an issue as we always sat outside if at the property. the kitchen appliances were adequate although it would have been nice to have the water system in the fridge in working order. A dishwasher would also be a very welcome addition. We loved having bbq and used that a lot. If we had wanted to cook inside there would have been very little food preparation area. The laundry area was outside but the drying area was difficult to use. All the lines were on top of each other in a very small space. Other villas had a folding rack they colud use outside for swim, diving items which would have been a good addition.
