Bon Rivato - Kralendijk

The property is as advertised. Stayed 8 nights. Located in a private gated community less than a minute drive off main road (Bulevard Gob. N. Debrot). 1 minute from Harbor Village Marina / dive shops and 3 minutes from downtown Kralendijk. Home is well appointed with high quality tables / chairs (teak) artwork and kitchen amenities. Nice swimming pool for a quick cool down. Bedrooms have efficient air conditioning; remainder of house is well ventilated with screened louver windows and high speed quite fans. Of all the properties inside Courtyard Village; this property has the best manicured grounds with a gardener who stopped by 2x week to maintain. Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay again; however no property is perfect and there were a few short comings. We felt that the mattresses and pillows were uncomfortable and extra bedding was lacking. It would have been nice to have beach towels and a quality ice chest (cooler) available (even if a deposit was required) for day trips to Slagbaai and Lac Cai. Other than that, hard to find anything to complain about. Also, the caretaker Diannne was a pleasure to deal with as well. This was our 6th trip to Bonaire albeit it has been 20 years since our last visit. The island has changed quite a bit both for the better and for the worse. Reefs aren't what they once were, but still enjoyable. The island isn't as sleepy as it once was...but at least now you can find basic to gourmet dining options now....even after 9pm which wasn't the case years ago. Bonaire will always be special to us. STINAPA / government is doing their best to manage holding on to ecological preservation against expected economic growth. We hope that they continue to manage the parks and Klien....as those pristine places are becoming less and less common.

Het huis was geweldig, netjes verzorgd en compleet ingericht. De tuin was helemaal super! Als je met zn vijven komt, is het binnen in kamer/keuken wel wat krap. Natuurlijk ben je op Bonaire meestal buiten, maar gezien de muggenplaag hebben wij toch ook s avonds binnen gezeten. Het zwembad was ook erg goed, water goede temperatuur en goede ligbedden.

Alles was het beste wat je maar kon bedenken.

Prima layout voor gezin van 4 of twee koppels. Ligging centraal. Fijn om eigen zwembad te hebben. Relaxte buitenterrassen met verschillende zitmogelijkheden. Buitendouches ideaal. Airco in beide slaapkamers.
