Our April visit to the Sunset Villa in Bonaire was all that we hoped it would be! The temperatures were in the 80's, the sky was blue and sunny, and the water was warm and filled with beautiful tropical fish right in the waters in front of the villa. My son and I enjoyed snorkeling around the nearby reefs; while my husband, daughter & her family, enjoyed the splendid scuba diving areas along the shoreline within short drives from the villa.
The Sunset Villa is ideal for a family rental with its five bright and airy bedrooms with lovely ocean views, its large kitchen to accommodate all of us preparing our breakfast and lunch, the outside grill for cooking our dinners, and the wonderful table under the arbor where we ate all of our meals enjoying the ocean view and breezes and sunsets. The outside closets, sinks, bench and shower, make preparing to scuba and rinse off afterwards, an easy process. Everything is so convenient and well laid out. Even the Dive Shop is only a short walk for rental of equipment and air tanks!
Our host, Lamber, was very helpful in getting us reacquainted with the villa, renting a truck for us, giving us a discount voucher for the Dive Shop and suggesting some wonderful nearby restaurants. This was our second visit to The Sunset Villa and we hope to return again next year! It offers everything we want in a vacation ~~ beautiful surroundings, tranquillity and easy access to all the things we want to do.

Exceptionally Fine House and Owner

Just returned from a week at this house and found everything to be excellent. The house is as pictured, the snokeling and diving are exceptionally fine right off the garden. Lamber, the owner is fun and very helpful. The kitchen is well appointed including some basic food for your arrival; beds and bedrooms are very comfortable and outdoor tables and furniture are great. Our entire group of 7 adults and 2 teenagers found it to work very well with different areas to go to for quiet reading, group discussion of the day's adventures or watching the sunsets, parrots, or other birds and wildlife. Everything was wonderful and we have been to many VRBO houses. Thank you Lamber for sharing your piece of Paradise with the rest of us.
Exceptional in every way.

WOW....

Our stay was everything we expected,,,and more! Us six adults had a wonderful week. Once we (or a couple of us) learned the roads to get to town and back, it was time to leave. So...we are for sure going back! The house is very inviting with the gathering table outside in the beautiful breeze. The sunsets are amazing as well. Just the anticipation of waiting for that "green flash" is relaxing in itself. Good thing the Rum Runners(food and drink restaurant just down the road) is open late!
Lamber is a very caring and wonderful owner. Checks in for any needs that may arise, answer all our questions,,,,were to eat, dive, shop. You name it...we asked him! If you love to dive, snorkel, read, relax, eat or drink,,,,you have come to the right place! The pictures that are posted are very true to the property. It is true that one of the best dive sites is right out the front of the house! The other sites are just a hop skip and a jump away. Don't forget to go see the Donkey's at the foundation site and when they sell you carrots to share....get at least three bags,,,each! I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did. Truely an amazing vacation spot.
Party of 6 from MN.
