We had a lovely stay at the apartment for a week-long dive trip. It is perfectly located on the boulevard so it is easy to walk to restaurants for dinner. The balcony was a perfect spot to watch the sunset while enjoying a cold beverage.There is a dive tank on-site; however, it was not accessible while we were there due to repaving of the driveway. Not a big issue since we were able to rinse at Dive Friends. And the new driveway looks amazing! It was finished the day before we left. Vera and the property management team were great communicators and we would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much, Melissa, for your wonderful review! I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed the apartment, the convenient location on the boulevard, and the beautiful sunsets from the balcony.
Thank you as well for your understanding regarding the temporary driveway work and the limited access to the dive rinse tank during your stay. We’re glad you got to see the finished driveway before leaving! It was a pleasure hosting you, and we truly appreciate your kind words about our communication. You are always welcome back anytime!
We recently completed our two-week stay and throughly enjoyed our visit. 5th time to Bonaire but first time using this property. Unit is spacious and view is perfect. Kitchen is well equipped and suites our needs. As is common in Bonaire, the parking lot is tight but there were always spaces available. We definitely would stay here again.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I'm delighted that you enjoyed your two-week stay and that our property met your needs on your 5th visit to Bonaire. It’s great to hear that you loved the spacious unit, perfect view, and well-equipped kitchen. I appreciate your understanding regarding the parking situation, and I'm thrilled you'll consider staying with us again.
Only thing lacking in kitchen was a working blender for making drinks. Notified property manager that the one there was broken. She said she would ask permission from owner to replace, but never heard back.

Thank you for your feedback, Chuck. I’m glad you let us know about the blender during your stay. We have informed the owners, and the owners will bring a new one next month.
Thank you again for your stay, and you are always welcome back anytime.
Excellent views from the large balcony and living room. The apartment is very well equipped and inviting. Spacious and clean. Facing the ocean, in no time you're swimming or spotting the rich underwater life. At walking distance from some nice restaurants at the centre of Kralendijk.

Great location spacious apartment but noisy
The apartment was great but the noise from the cars, dogs and fireworks every night made it impossible to sleep.

Thank you for the review of our Home and the Island of Bonaire during Christmas time~
We are delighted you enjoyed our apartment and our location too! Thank you!
We are sorry you found Bonaire noisy during your stay~Unfortunately Bonaire like many of the Caribbean Islands, likes to celebrate the Holidays~with fireworks~Christmas right through the New Year!
Thanks for staying with us~we welcome you back again for a future visit!
A Happy and Healthy New Year to you and your family!
We have stayed at this condo site 3 times, but this is the first time at this particular apartment. The furniture and beds were very comfortable, had plenty of towels. This is the first time we used the pool, which was lovely. It would have been nice to have plastic bags for the kitchen garbage pail, soap for the laundry, sugar, napkins or paper towels. But those were pretty minor things we did without or purchased for ourselves.
The condo is well equipped, and all appliances work well. We had everything we needed to cook meals including great pans and sharp knives! The view is great, and it is a good location within walking distance to downtown restaurants. We did have a few issues with the parking lot gate and Vera, who manages the unit, was very quick to respond and help us. A/C units in bedrooms work great. The pool was kept clean and well maintained. The dive locker is more of a storage locker, so we stored our dive gear at the dive shop which we prefer anyway. Vera is very nice and at the ready if you need anything. This is a great condo and we definitely would rent it again.

Thank you so much, Robert! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the condo, its amenities, and the convenient location. It’s great to know you had everything you needed for cooking and that the A/C, pool, and other facilities added to your stay. I really appreciate your kind words and was happy to help with the parking gate when needed. You’re always welcome back, and I’d be delighted to host you again anytime!
We just loved having the porch/lanai on the 3rd floor with an unobstructed oceanfront view. It was spectacular.The check-in had a few small issues when the property manager switched over to WhatsApp (which I found out later works better than the VRBO app for communications). But my WhatsApp had disabled itself without my knowing which held up communication for a bit. After that, all was good.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the 3rd-floor porch/lanai and the spectacular oceanfront view. We apologize for the initial check-in hiccup with WhatsApp—thank you for your patience and understanding. We appreciate your feedback and look forward to welcoming you back in the future!
Just returned from our latest trip to Bonaire. While not new to the island, this was our first time staying at Sea Star in Playa Lechi. Everything was excellent.
The apartment was just as pictured. It was clean, comfortable, extremely well equiped, and had a wonderful view and patio.
Vera was so easy to work with. Responsive, great communications, and there for anything we needed. She met us at the property at the start and the end of our trip. When we needed some help on a Sunday night she was there for us within 10 minutes. Couldn't be more pleased.
Thanks for a wonderful trip. Look forward to seeing you again on our next trip to Bonaire.

Thank you so much for the 5-star review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your trip. We can't wait to welcome you back!
The owner was very easy to communicate with via email and text messages. The property was in a perfect location for us and the unit was exactly as advertised. We loved Bonaire and are planning a return visit soon.
Having only one set of keys was somewhat inconvenient for a group of 4. Two sets of keys would have been much easier.
The condo was a nice size. Big rooms. Nice bathrooms. We spent most of our time on the balcony, enjoying the view and breeze.
I gave the cleanliness 4 stars only because the elevator and walk ways were only cleaned once while we were there. Definitely 5 stars when we arrived.

We are delighted you enjoyed your stay at Playa Lechi Residence #12 and

So sorry to hear you didn’t get 2 sets of keys~it is normal procedure for a party of 4 to get 2 sets. We will correct the miscommunication with our local agent and rest assured.....you would get 2 sets for a future visit!
We are glad you found Bonaire as we do....special!
Many Thanks, Gigi & Tom

Excellent Waterfront location with view of Klien Bonaire
The location was awesome. We appreciated the large deck and excellent view. The apartment was well equipped with private parking. The "secured parking" was not so secure as the gate was open the entire time we were there. You can swim/snorkel directly in front of the unit. It is an easy flat walk to the downtown area which is nice as parking can be difficult downtown. We were surprised about how much noise you can hear from the unit. You have to have the deck doors open for the breeze but many motorcycles, cars, and quads "cruise" the streets both in front of and behind the building. Many of them are loud by design and this goes on very late into the night. Then later into our stay a firework stand opened right next to the complex. This added loud fireworks that went on all night long and we weren't even there for New Year's Eve!
Overall and great stay, I just wished we were made aware of the noise levels in advance.

Thank you for the review of your recent stay in our island home on Bonaire.
We feel fortunate to have found this location and enjoy sharing it.
Indeed the gate to our parking area is open from
7 am-10 pm for convenience, but closed overnight.
Bonairian's enjoy their holidays at the end of the year with celebrations & fireworks. We think of it as Christmas, New Years Eve, & The 4th of July celebrated all at once.
There is something in the local culture about fireworks bringing in good fortune. Some of our guests enjoy it, but we too wish there were less fire work noise.
We hope you consider a future booking with us, and if you do, let’s discuss the best time of year.
Sunny Regards,
Tom & Gigi
The condo was clean and ready upon our arrival. We came with a car rental so the agent met us in the parking lot. We were checked in efficiently. The view from the balcony is wonderful: frigate birds and the occasional pelican, bananaquits, sailboats, cruise ships, snorkelers, Klein Bonaire, and the evening sunset. The furniture is comfortable. The kitchen is exceptionally well appointed in our experience; the quality of the pots and pans, for example, is very good. Rentals often forego essentials such as dish soap, paper towels, and trash bags, forcing the renters to purchase these things. Not so here. Both bedrooms have air-conditioning for sleeping comfortably.
Regarding some of the reviews on this site: some say it’s noisy. In our view, not very. Certainly there was no noise that kept us awake. You will hear the occasional dog barking during the day and truck rumbling by if you have the back windows open, but since you live in the front of the condo facing the water, the only real noise is the wind, the birds, and occasional voices from people strolling by. A second somewhat common comment concerns the lack of security in the parking lot. In our experience, the gate was open during the day and always shut at night. We had a remote for the times when the gate was closed. Access to the buildings is through a keyed gate.
We have stayed in a lot of places in multiple countries. Vera may be the best rental agent we’ve ever worked with.
All in all, an easy five stars!

Looking forward to welcoming you back in the future!
We loved our time in Bonaire. This property was clean, spacious and the views were amazing. We had plenty of room for our family of 4 including two teens. We swam in the ocean right across the street. We enjoyed the pool. We used this as a base and windsurfed at Lac bay every day. We walked into town to restaurants for dinner. Superb location. The kitchen is well stocked. There is a good supply of towels. The beds are v comfortable.
Enjoyed our stay. Had been in the building before, but different unit. This was even better than the last. Great location, very clean and best of all no mosquitoes this time!
The pictures from the balcony do not lie. The view is the big wow. The unit is lovely and spacious and well-equipped. I concur with what others have noted in that the noise from the street is a negative. On the other hand, it is a short walk to town. Snorkelling off the dock in front of Playa Lechi is fantastic; swim down to the rock piling about 1/4 mile north if you want an even bigger wow.
I think anyone would love this property. Perfect view, perfect location smack in the middle of the island. We enjoyed sitting on the veranda and watching all the boat traffic coming and going. View of Klein Bonarie's south end is great. Snorkeling around the boats in the harbor, while not much reef, still a lot of fish and other creatures to observe. We did have a minor plumbing issue during our stay, but will be corrected before the next renter's stay. It was such that it could not be corrected without water disruption, so we felt easy to live with until we left. The owners are great, easy to communicate with and very responsive to inquiries and issues, as is Sunbelt realty. Highly recommend you stay here, couldn't imagine staying anywhere else on the island. Enjoy Bonaire!
We thoroughly enjoyed our one week stay at Playa Lechi while on Bonaire, diving. As others have noted, the waterfront location offers incredible sea views from the spacious third floor balcony. We found the online photos and descriptions of this unit accurate. Communication with the owners and their realty company was excellent, and they both made us feel welcomed. This property’s high ratings are well deserved.
We booked the apartment for an intended Easter holiday. Due to Covid-19 we had to cancel several times and rebook, even after having paid part of the rental contract. In every instance Tom and Gigi were very accommodating and quickly ensured that we were fully reimbursed for the payments. The trip finally took place in July 2020. The flat was perfect for us - close to the centre of Kralendijk, well-equipped and of a great standard. We will definitely be happy to rent from Tom & Gigi again (sooner rather than later :)).

Gigi and Tom offer a 5 star accommodation for a visit to Bonaire. The location is perfect for walking to downtown shopping and restaurants as well as to a local dive shop. Every day presents a gorgeous view of the ocean and memorable sunsets. The large lanai allows for lounging, visiting or dining. The condo is well equipped with many towels and sheets, and weekly cleaning service takes care of everything. For dining in, the kitchen lacks for nothing. I look forward to future stays in this lovely condominium.
