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!
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.
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!
This property deserves all the great ratings. It was comfortable, private, well equipped and the owner was great to work with. We loved the pool, the yard, the snorkeling, it met all of our needs.
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!
This home is so inviting and comfortable. Everything you would need for two couples. The location is quiet yet convenient. But, what makes it the very best is the personalized service from the property manager, Karin!
So nice to walk right down to the beach and get in the water to a wide variety of sea life! Quiet neighborhood, beautiful view, easy check in and out, very responsive communication. A nice experience.
Perfect for 2 couples. There is direct access to a nice part of the reef, we used the pool every day. It’s in a quiet neighborhood, beautiful front garden. Jerome is great to work with.
Fantastic view of the ocean. The house is large and has a great patio, and pool with tropical trees, plants and flowers surrounding it. The clear blue ocean is right in front of you, and a few steps away . If you like swimming, snorkeling or diving , tropical birds, private sunbathing, beautiful ocean view and sunset, this is the place to be!
Beautiful home thoughtfully stocked with guest’s needs in mind. Both the property manager and the owner were very friendly and responsive to questions/concerns during our 2 week stay.
The location is perfect for access to the ocean for diving and snorkeling at one of the best spots on the island. The private pool was a hit with everyone in our group as well: not too warm not too cold.
As a special treat, there were parrots that visited everyday as the owners had planted flowers/trees that they liked.
We have already booked our next stay! :-)
Sun, Scuba, and Secluded Splendor: Bonaire Villa Bliss!
We recently had the pleasure of staying at this villa in Bonaire, and it was truly an experience to remember! Its location strikes a perfect balance - close enough to town for easy access to all conveniences, yet distanced enough to offer a private and special retreat.
Despite visiting during a heat wave, the villa remained our sanctuary. The location was impeccable for our scuba diving adventures right out back. And after a long day of exploring, there was nothing like unwinding in the pool under the stars. The well-equipped kitchen and cozy resting spots further enhanced our stay, allowing us to fully relax and rejuvenate.
Highly recommended for anyone looking to experience the best of Bonaire!
A really wonderful 3 bedroom villa above the ocean, with a private stairway to the water. There are dozens of noted snorkeling sites on the island, but the reefs just to the right and left of the rental unit are so superb we rarely went anywhere else. The entry points are rocky so you will want water shoes if entering from the shore. The house is modern, very comfortable, with a swimming pool and veranda. All 3 bedrooms are air-conditioned for comfortable nights. Solid appliances, friendly property manager, smart TV. It's hard to imagine anyone not liking this place. A solid rental in every way.
My wife and I just returned home from our third trip to Bonaire and our third stay at Jerome’s fantastic house at Crown Ridge. As in the past trips, the house was immaculately clean, in excellent condition and well appointed.
The dive sites out front are excellent for all levels of divers or snorkelers with plenty to see.
There has been some new development in the neighborhood but it is still very quiet and with little traffic
Jerome is an excellent host and is always willing to go the the extra mile - this time recommending a dive shop capable of making repairs professionally, promptly and at a reasonable price.
This is our “go to” VRBO on Bonaire. Try it, you won’t regret it.
Once again a fantastic stay. The location is amazing. You are in a wonderful quiet enclave with easy access to 2 great snorkeling and dive sites. We loved the views from the pool deck, especially the sunsets and aerobatics of the bats (mentally insert Top Gun theme music). The house had everything we needed, from kitchen and cooking needs to towels and just space to relax. The screens kept out unwelcome guests and allowed us to take advantage of the great breeze. AC in the bedrooms made sleeping great.
Jerome was an amazing host, with clear and prompt communication. Any issues were quickly addressed and he had great recommendations.
We were very sad to leave this amazing spot of paradise and can not wait to return.

So-So
I am going to have to disagree somewhat with all the other reviews. I do agree that the location is wonderful; the sunsets are spectacular; and the house is well stocked. Also, Jerome was helpful and available. But, there are a couple items people need to be aware of. First, there is not an air conditioning unit in the main living room AND Jerome really does charge you for electricity. We have rented homes before including in Bonaire, and we have never been charged for electricity. We were very conscious not to over-use the air conditioning; the A/C unit in the master bedroom did not work well the first couple of days and Jerome still charged us. Second, the mattresses on the beds are extremely hard; they are so uncomfortable our kids even noticed. Lastly, the pool is only cleaned once, and house is not cleaned at all during the week. With a family of five, this does make a difference and other homes including on Bonaire do provide this service for no extra charge. We have stayed in comparable homes, and the value for this home is just not there.
We absolutely loved our stay at the Paradise house! It was perfect in every way! There were 4 of us and we love to snorkel. This place was a dream come true. The best snorkeling is directly down the steps and steps away! The pool was perfect, comfy chairs everywhere to watch the beautiful sunsets. The beds were all extremely comfy. Kitchen very nice appliances, roomy and open. The table on the patio with fan above was perfect for shading us in the hottest part of the day. Jerome was a perfect host, giving us a tour of the house and info about everything on the island! He made us feel right at home! We will definitely only stay at this home when visiting Bonaire in the future!
