手入れの行き届いたサンドダラーオーシャンフロントコンドミニアムF-9

Thanks so much for the perfect score and for selecting our condo for a second time.

Thanks so much for the to-the-point review. You said so much in just one sentence! We hope to host you again..

Hi Theresa, Thanks so much for the very nice review. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting your stay and are glad that your expectations were met. We look forward to having the opportunity to host you again.

Thanks so much for the very nice review, Pamela. The unobstructed view of the water from our condo is certainly a great sight to wake up to and enjoy every day. We strive to have all of the comforts of home in our condo and devote time each of our trips to maintaining our place and making upgrades for ourselves and our guests. We are glad we were able to share our happy place with you. We hope we have the opportunity to host you again.

Thanks for the great review Gail. We are glad our condo and the nearby services met your expectations. I will pass along your compliments to the SD staff. We enjoyed having you as our guests and hope we can host you again.

Hi Melanie, Thank you very much for your comments. We are continuing to make upgrades in our unit to make sure it is well maintained for us and our guests. We really love being on the ground floor with easy and quick access to the water and the sun deck where enjoy joining guests and owners to enjoy the incredible sunsets.

Thank you so much for the positive review and five star rating. We love the location of our condo with its easy access to everything, especially the water. Each time we visit we spend time performing maintenance and making updates, although we have not photographed and posted the recent improvements. Our appliances are newer than shown in the photos. In January 2019 we replaced the microwave and drapes. We have upgraded our refrigerator to a stainless French door model with an automatic ice maker and water in the door. We love the convenience of having ice readily available and easy access to refrigerated items. We have also replaced the kitchen faucet and dishwasher within the last couple of years with more updated stainless models. We are always open to suggestions for improvements from our guests to keep our unit well maintained for them. Next time we are there we will get some new photos. We are glad you felt at home and we hope to welcome you back the next time you visit Bonaire.

Hi James, thanks for the great review. We are glad you enjoyed place. We enjoyed hosting your stay and meeting your friends.

Hi Pam, Thanks so much for the very nice review. We appreciate your positive comments very much. We are glad you enjoyed our new kitchen and the size of our place as well as the view and close proximity to the water. We loved having you as our guests and we look forward to the opportunity to host you again should you return to Bonaire. 🏝️

Thanks for the nice review Tracy. We are glad you loved our condo. It does take a few minutes to walk to the dive shop but we hope you agree that walking along the water and seeing the sea life makes for a pleasurable experience. The dive shop also provides wagons to transport gear. Thanks for your comments and we hope we have the opportunity to host your next visit.

Thanks for the positive review, Virginia. We agree that the location of our condo is ideal. Close enough to town for a nice morning walk along the oceanfront and within walking distance of many nice restaurants, yet a peaceful and relaxing spot to enjoy the sun and water. Thanks for commenting on the comfort of the bed too. The mattress topper provides a feeling of sleeping in a cloud and is very restful. We are glad you enjoyed your vacation and hope you come back and stay in our place again.

Thank you so much for the five star review. We are happy you enjoyed your stay and the amenities of our unit and its priceless location and views. It sounds as though you settled into a great routine during your three week stay. We hope to host you on your next visit. Thanks again!

Hi Anita, thanks so much for your wonderful 5 star review. We agree the view of the water from throughout our condo is awesome and so relaxing. We are happy you used our new kitchen too. It is one of our favorite things about our condo. We are happy your 17th stay at Sand Dollar was in our place and we look forward to being able to host you again.

Hi Leslie, Thanks so much for the nice review. We share the same feelings about our little piece of paradise. We hope you plan a longer trip next time and it would be our pleasure to host your stay.

Hi Sharon and Gary, Thanks so much for your nice comments. We are happy you enjoyed our condo. We love the layout and space too as well as the convenience of having parking just outside the door. We appreciate your comments about the Sand Dollar and Dive Friend staffs and will share your favorable feedback. We hope we have the opportunity to host your next stay. Mitzi and Denny

Hi Julie, Thanks so much for the lovely review. We enjoyed sharing in your special occasion and agree the staff did a beautiful job with the floral decorations. We appreciate your comments about our recent renovations and upgrades too. We hope we have the opportunity to host you and your husband in the future. Congratulations and best wishes, Mitzi.

Thanks so much for the wonderful review! It was our pleasure to host your stay. Our goal is to meet, and hopefully exceed, our guests’ expectations in every way. We were fortunate to have you as our guests and look forward to the opportunity to share our slice of paradise with you again.

Hi Cynthia and Bobby, Thanks so much for the great review and 5 star rating. My goal is to ensure your expectations are met in every respect. I strive to respond to guest questions quickly and provide as little or as much communication as each guest requests. Your daily routine sounds like you fell in love with Bonaire and Sand Dollar. We too have met so many friendly people at Sand Dollar. It is certainly a wonderful destination for divers and non-divers as well. I enjoyed getting to know you and look forward to hosting your next stay.

I am Mitzi, owner and host, and would like to address the comments made in this review. The swimming pool which is available for use by Sand Dollar guests is owned and managed by the owners of Eddy’s Restaurant. SD staff and owners are disappointed with the declining condition of the pool and management has pushed for improvements. Just 6 days before the arrival of this reviewer, I was emailed a picture of the pool with clear water and new lounge chairs and I forwarded this information and picture to our guest. Since this is no longer a reliable representation of the condition of the pool, I have removed any mention of the pool as an amenity from my listing. As far as the shower drain, I have been assured the drains are checked prior to each check in and I plan to also install a drain wig to catch hair as most clogs, including the one just removed, tend to be from hair and sand. The drain issue is not unique to our unit and Sand Dollar owners have approved funds to replace pipes and drains where needed. The bed is a queen. This is the first complaint. The mattress has an egg crate topper which is enclosed in a zippered cover with the mattress pad placed over it. We, along with most of our guests, think it makes the bed pretty comfy but I can see that someone who prefers a firm bed may not like it as well. The topper can be removed for a firmer sleeping experience. The new couch just purchased in 2022 is very firm but not meant for sleeping on nightly. As far as the oven is concerned, it was just installed in October 2021. Due to the pandemic, at that time, was one of the last units available on the island for purchase. It is a little confusing at first as the dials have pictures and the temperatures are in Celsius. To help guests I made an instruction sheet and temperature conversion chart which should be included in the welcome packet guests receive at check in. As far as the comments about our kitchen, not to worry, we are having it gutted, and thanks to the new layout, we will have more cabinets and drawers and outlets along with more countertop space and new backsplash tile. The project plan was finalized in March and construction is scheduled to start in September with completion expected in October. We are excited to see this major and most recent upgrade come to life! I hope my response has cleared up any concerns. Our priority, along with the SD staff, is to keep our condo well maintained for us and our guests.

Hi Ken, Thank you for such nice comments about your trip to Bonaire. I am so glad you had a wonderful time and that our condo and Sand Dollar met your expectations. As I read your review, I could not help but imagine myself being there. You are a great communicator and I am sure future guests will appreciate the tips you shared. Bonaire is truly a paradise and you timed your trip perfectly for a brief escape from Winter. We hope when you plan your next warm weather trip that we have the opportunity to welcome you and Linda back to Bonaire and Sand Dollar. Mitzi and Denny

Hi Dianna, Thanks for your thoughtful review of your recent stay at Sand Dollar. We are happy that you loved our unit and will make sure we add some more bed pillows for future guests. The location of our unit is as you described on the quieter end of the complex which has the advantage of being away from any noise of the dive tank filling area and Den Laman Restaurant but just a few minute waterfront walk or short swim or snorkel to the small sandy beach. We are sorry you were disappointed by the pool area. I have checked with the owners of the restaurant about allowing guests to bring in their own food and drinks while using the pool area. The restaurant hours have changed to 6-10 pm and they do not have a problem with pool guests bringing in food and drinks during the times they are closed. Of course guests are expected to keep the area clean of any garbage created and to avoid bringing in any glass. Sand Dollar has really nice oceanfront sundecks. One is just 75 yards from our patio with comfortable chaise lounge chairs and is perfect for relaxing and watching the sunsets. There is a staircase to the water for a swim and an outdoor fresh water shower to rinse off. The sundeck and expansive oceanfront are two of our our favorite things about Sand Dollar. Thanks again for your review and for sharing our little piece of paradise. We loved hosting you.

Hi Rhonda, Thanks so much for the wonderful review. We are so happy you loved your stay and that you have already booked our condo for your next trip. We agree that Sand Dollar is a perfect location with the beautiful view and convenient access to the water. Watching the sun set over the water each night is priceless!
