casa iguana Bonaire - great place for a great vacation
Guest: Arni
(Vienna, Austria)
Date of Stay: 09/24/11
Review Submitted: 10/22/11
The place really looks like on the pictures, especially the view is breathtaking! You can go diving directly from your own property (there's a ladder), btw the divesite in front of the house is really great as well (even saw seehorses). There is plenty of room for 4 people in the house but we spent most of the time on the beautiful terrace. The house is euqiped with everything you need, dishwasher, washing machine, cuttlery, spices, huge american fridge with icemaker. Once a week the house will be cleaned professionally and also you get new towels, sheets, etc. Ron, the Owner is really nice and helpful in case you have any questions or something in the house needs a fix. The house is owned by 2 differenty people (upper floor, lower floor), so you will share parts of the terrace with the people from the upper floor (if there are guests at that time). We (2 couples from Austria) have spent 2 weeks at casa iguana in September/October and would definitely recommend the place to our friends and family.

After many years staying at Buddy's, etc, we discovered Casa Iguana. Wow! Perfect for two scuba diving couples to share the cost. Right on the water with a sunset view, the Villa is huge, with all the amenities you could want including AC in both big bedrooms, a brand new refer, dishwasher, clothes washer, big covered deck outside plus a built in BBQ! And even better, there is a dive shop just next door at the Belmar Apts! Super easy for tanks and you can dive off their dock with zero hassels. Sweet! We've stayed with Casa Iguana for three years running and will be back again next year!

We have stayed at villa casa iguana for 4 years. We stay for 2 weeks. The house is well kept, with all the amenities for a Carribean vacation house. The location next to Belmar Dive shop is very convenient and we have had great dives right off the dock. We get along with Ron great and he often visits the property to make sure all is well. It is helpful if you purchase ant spray at the grocery store. We have spent time alone and with friends. One year we rented the upstairs and had lots of people. The accomodations have usually worked out well. One other suggestion, The beds are queens and this year there was not additional bed in the front room. So, sleeping 4 is really a max.
Owner response:Beds, are king now

The beautiful pictures do not do this property justice. A wonderfully spacious place with great vistas, a fully stocked kitchen (including spices, oil, and a great refrigerator), and very effective air conditioning (when it was rarely necessary). Water so calm our neighbors were able to take their baby in (just as described) and access to a first-rate dive shop next door were a dream. The place was wonderfully laid out and very well kept, and the manager was always available for questions and to make sure everything was just right. If you want the peace and quiet of the island life in a first class private home ... very quiet and convenient to many attractions (with a car). Private parking and a private sunset ... this is your place.
Owner response:What can we do more!!! Thanks

Fantastic!! I will stay there again and again...

The condo location is perfect- great diving/snorkeling right off the front patio. Condo itself is extremely clean, comfortable, airy, and bright. I plan to go back again next year- absolutely no complaints whatsoever!

Highly recommendable

We are a family of 5 (3 teenage boys) and found the villa superb. Owners have been very friendly and made everything possible so that our stay was unforgettable. On an excellent spot for diving and next door to a professional dive shop with the best products. It is actually a house with two floors that are rented separately, so you may have somebody on the upper floor sharing the access to the sea. But it is completely separate and there is good privacy. Short distance by car to shopping, dining and supermaket. The place and the friendliness of the owners, who actually live in Bonaire all year long, will definitely make you feel at home. Highly recommendable.
Owner response:Thanks for your reaction and your stay with us, Greetings, Ron Ottens
