Oceanfront Villa Paradise Found: PrivatePool, BeachAccess.140+ five star reviews

If you’re looking for the fastest way to ruin a Bonaire vacation, this oceanside resort is an excellent choice.The scam starts with the extra charge for electricity to run the air conditioner, which would almost be funny if the AC units actually worked. They were so weak and ineffective that we rarely bothered using them, yet somehow were still expected to pay for the privilege of sweating indoors. The “alternative” of opening the windows was equally useless: several windows barely functioned, and the few that did open had no screens whatsoever, turning the room into an all-you-can-eat buffet for mosquitoes and every flying insect on the island.For a resort in a world-famous dive destination, the rinse tank situation was downright absurd. The tank was so ridiculously undersized it couldn’t hold enough water to rinse a box of cooked pasta, much less dive gear. It felt less like a serious amenity and more like a cheap afterthought added by someone who has clearly never set foot near the ocean.The chaise lounges deserve special mention for being among the most physically punishing furniture I’ve ever encountered. Lying on them felt like volunteering for medieval torture on a bed of nails. Instead of relaxing by the beautiful water, every minute became an exercise in discomfort.This property seems to rely entirely on its location while ignoring the most basic standards of comfort and maintenance.

The view and the location between Andrea I and II were everything! There were plenty of towels and a fully (more than) equipped kitchen. Staff and owner were very responsive and helpful. Quick and easy check in and check out. Wonderful stay!

Great house and best snorkeling on Bonaire

This rental is even nicer in reality, if that’s possible?!?! Stunning views, plants, bird and lizard sightings, refreshing pool, and my absolute favorite part was walking down the back steps to snorkel the best reef on the island. The bedrooms were comfortable, air conditioners in bedrooms were strong, and every appliance, pot, or pan you could want was there. There is a box of assorted snorkel gear in the garage, though it’s worth investing in nice gear if you’re on the fence. You will use it. At minimum, make sure you bring pool shoes (speedo?). The entry to the water is very rocky. You may also want to bring some pool floats? (We left ours behind for you, but they may not last long). There are plenty of bath towels, but you may want to bring some quick dry beach towels. There are a couple beach chairs and a large cooler. You might want your own small/soft cooler for your adventures. You should bring or be prepared to bring or buy sunscreen, bath products (shampoo/cond/soap), bug spray, first aid supplies (for scrapes from rocks in water), aloe, lotion… Throw in some extra ziplocks and specialty spices if there are seasonings you especially like/want. Not much in the house. Again, mostly everything you’d want is available at grocery stores, but some US imports might give you sticker shock (20 Oreos?). Other things are reasonable. And eating out didn’t feel more expensive than restaurants in large US cities. Communication with the property manager/QVilla is outstanding.

Incredible view with direct access to what seemed to be our own private beach. Perfect for snorkeling. Beach is very rocky, so bring water shoes for entry/exit into the water. House was well equipped with coffee machines and lots of cooking supplies. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful setting, sunsets every evening. Pool every day. Amazing dinners around the island.Can not wait to return

Beautiful home in a perfect location. Nicely appointed kitchen and perfect outdoor space & pool area. Tons of bird & lizard life to watch each morning and excellent snorkeling just steps away. Highly recommended!

This is a well maintained villa with outstanding views. Will not stay anywhere else.

Great place for our family of 4. Right on the water with access to snorkeling and diving right out the back door. Pool was great and we spent hours on the back porch looking over the ocean. Easy 5 min drive into town. Jerome was a great host. Excellent communication and he helped with all the questions we had about the island.

This unit is perfect for snorkling and ocean gazing. Great amenities.

We stayed in Villa Paradise Found five years ago and were delighted to be able to rebook for this recent family vacation over New Year's week. Our high expectations (based on our past visit) were met or exceeded on this trip. The private pool was a major family favorite (especially with the floaties we brought), as was the easy access to some of the best snorkeling on the island. We appreciated the well-appointed kitchen and loved lingering around the large and comfortable patio table. Jerome, our host, was superbly responsive and amazingly knowledgeable about the island. We're eager to book this place again when we return to Bonaire!

We had a great time, and the view was amazing - sitting in the pool watching the sunset. Hard to get any better. House was immaculate, well-kept and had plenty of amenities. Easy walk to the water down the private stairway and you are in the water among the reef. Will surely come back! Thanks Jerome!

Lovely three bedroom two bath home with great kitchen, grill and pool! Amazing snorkeling and dive steps from your door. Good host too!
