The Neighborhood:
The Kralendijk center area features the boulevard, piers, sailing and motor boats on moorings and colorful facades: here you are right between restaurants, bars, boutiques and the starting points of various boat trips, including sunset tours and the water taxis to Klein Bonaire. It is ideal if you want everything within walking distance and enjoy strolling along the boulevard at night. For divers and snorkelers, Playa is a great base thanks to quick access to west coast sites; for foodies and shoppers, this is the place to be. Expect liveliness, convenience and the shortest travel times to all facilities in Bonaire's main town, Kralendijk.
Thuis aan Zee is located in Kralendijk, approximately 2.9 kilometers from Zhung Kong supermarket, 1 kilometer from Dive Friends Yellow Submarine dive center, 900 meters from Chachacha Beach and 450 meters from Cuba Compagnie restaurant.
Sunwise insider tip: When staying at Thuis aan Zee, a trip to Klein Bonaire is highly recommended. This uninhabited islet off the coast of Kralendijk is part of the Bonaire National Marine Park and is a protected nature reserve. Water taxis depart from the boulevard and take you to white sandy beaches with crystal-clear blue water. The coral reefs around Klein Bonaire offer excellent snorkeling, with many colorful fish and often sea turtles in the shallow areas.
Getting Around:
Bonaire and especially the hotspots like Washington Slagbaai National Park, the remote pristine beaches, and the kitesurf and windsurf locations, are best enjoyed with a rental car, as our lovely Caribbean island has so much more to offer beyond the immediate surroundings of Thuis aan Zee. With your own car you can explore remote snorkel spots, dive sites and local restaurants at your own pace. We strongly recommend renting a car so you can get everywhere easily. Most roads on Bonaire are paved, but for nature areas like the park, a pickup truck or SUV is advisable. The park roads are unpaved and sometimes rough, making a regular car less suitable. There is no public transport on Bonaire and taxis are limited, especially on busy days when a cruise ship is in port.
Other Things to Note:
Check-in to Thuis aan Zee is from 3:00 PM and check-out is until 10:00 AM. Early arrival or late departure may be possible on request, depending on other reservations. Smoking and pets are not allowed in our accommodations, and we kindly ask you to keep noise down at night. Enjoy your stay at Thuis aan Zee!
