Thank you for taking a look and Bon Bini!!! to Reefs Edge Bonaire, an Oceanfront condo with fabulous views and amazing Sunsets! Our condo is located right across the street from Flamingo International Airport. This lovely condo is located on the second floor and is an end unit for additional privacy. Wait until you see the spectacular views overlooking the beautiful waters of Bonaire! My guests are amazed and say these are some of the best views on the island! We love sitting on the large balcony with 270 degree views. You can see Klein Bonaire (and watch the dive boats taking divers to/from); you can see the mountains in Washington Slaagbai Park; you can see cruise ships come in, Naval ships sometimes, and large private yachts owned by billionaires. The Trade winds blow constantly which provide a soothing cooling effect for relaxing any time during the day or evening. I love sitting on my balcony watching the boats go by; feeling the trade winds; checking out the fish, turtles, and eagle rays in the water below. I can sit here for hours being entertained by all of it! Feel the stress just melt away because now you are on vacation in Bonaire.

The condo is very open with high cathedral ceilings in the kitchen and living room with lots of nice natural sunlight inside. There is air conditioning throughout the condo, but if you prefer the trade winds that blow constantly day and night, feel free to turn off the AC and open the windows and doors and let the breeze blow through. We have SCREENS on ALL doors and windows!!! It really does feel nice to have the fresh air and get away from the AC until bedtime. This is one of my favorite things when I arrive to Bonaire - to feel the breeze blowing and the smell of salt water. You know you are at the Ocean now!
The bedroom is pretty and cozy with sun reducing curtains so that you can rest peacefully. We have an end unit for additional privacy but is very close to the dive shop for added convenience.

Outstanding
We loved staying here. We enjoyed every meal on the patio watching the boats come in and out while being entertained by the pelicans diving into the water with such terrific splashes. The villa was clean and it was so nice to have beach towels provided. We were also able to do laundry - that was awesome. It was quiet and relaxing and everything we needed was in the unit. The property manager answered our questions immediately - he was fabulous. We stopped to smell the flowers outside every time we came in - they were divine. We picked up most of our meals at the food trucks that were within walking distance and brought them back - good quick food at a reasonable price - this is incredibly conveniently located to the beach, to the food trucks, and to the airport. The snorkeling at the adjacent beach is fabulous; even if you're a diver, grab your mask, fins, and snorkel and head over. We are already planning our return trip. Christine is an amazing host and we would be delighted if she would host us again in this absolutely perfect villa.

The condo has a gorgeous view over Kralindijk. I enjoyed watching the boats come and go through the channel every day. The apartment was very neat and clean with a good location.

Best view in Bonaire
Hands down, one of the best views (and outdoor deck) of the 40+ rentals we’ve had in our nomadic life. This cozy apartment is walking distance from the airport but is a world away at the same time. The kitchen is well-stocked and easy to negotiate with a good-sized fridge. The bedroom has a comfortable bed and enough closet and storage for a month’s stay. The AC works well in both the bedroom and the living room but no need for AC in living room ever—just open up the deck and front doors for a 24 hour breeze that keeps heat AND mosquitoes at bay. AND, there’s a washing machine. And we liked the split bathroom with a toilet in one room and shower in another (be careful of the slippery tile, though—we pack our own shower mat to prevent falls). Like many properties in Aruba and Bonaire, there’s only hot water in the shower and sink. You definitely need a car if you want to visit the many snorkel and diving sites though Bonaire Dive Friends is right next door and you can walk to a couple of good snorkeling beaches. Mornings on the deck were heavenly—watching all manner of boats (and cruise ships) in and out of the sea. Christine is a great communicator and the maintenance staff is johnny-on-the-spot if you have any problems.

About the host

Hosted by Christine Rufener

Host profile image
After discovering how easy it was to shore dive in Bonaire and all that it had to offer to include checking out the wonderful sea life (found a seahorse on my birthday dive at Windsock), I knew this was the place I would semi-retire to one day. The people are friendly and warm; the sun seems to shine all the time; the casual atmosphere and spectacular diving. What more could you ask for?

Why they chose this property

Why do we love having a vacation home in Bonaire? The lovely Dutch architecture and the nice, friendly, and lovely people that we have met. Our condo is located in a place where people seek out to refresh, rejuvenate, and relax in a quiet and peaceful setting where you can snorkel or dive right in front of the condo. There is an awesome operating dive shop on the premises who are great at what they do, a lovely pool and pool deck, it is just very relaxing!!! I really wouldn't need to leave this place and would enjoy every day there. But...there are so many things to do in Bonaire, fabulous restaurants, awesome diving, a nice sandy beach just a minute of the road from the condo. Close to everything - the airport is especially convenient - you can walk right over to the condo (save on 2 days of truck rental)!!
