Sophisticated Oceanfront Villa, Beach Access
In the detached Villa Vista Mare on Bonaire with enclosed garden and private swimming pool, you can enjoy the world with your loved one or family (up to 10 people) in complete seclusion. The villa is fully equipped and has a beautiful large tropical garden, plenty of shade and a lovely swimming pool with sun beds with a view and direct access to the sea. At the pool you will find a separate Gazebo with covered terrace on the 1st floor where you have an unforgettable view of the sea and Klein Bonaire and a separate outdoor kitchen.
Villa Description: The living is easy at this Villa Vista Mare, luxurious vacation villa in the island of Bonaire. Villa Vista Mare offers 5 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and fits 10 persons with ease. Three bedrooms are accessible from within the house, the other two are attached to the main house, but accessible from outside.
The villa sits on a large slender lot, featuring the splendid main house on the street side and a super cozy, fully equipped gazebo with kitchen, outdoor shower and bathroom on the ocean. Here is a lot of space to lounge and hang out at the pool deck, while overlooking the ocean. Vista Mare has a beautiful Magna Pool, with magnesium minerals. When you jump in, you can feel the difference: the water has a gentle, silky feeling against your skin. There is little or no irritation to your eyes and your hair won’t need washing to get rid of that chlorine smell or sticky salt feeling associated with chlorine and saltwater pools.
And then there is the ocean... directly accessible through easy steps down to the beach which is partly sandy and partly rocky. At the gazebo there are bar style tables with high chairs, a dining table and plenty of sunbeds for everyone to enjoy. Water shoes are recommended to enter the crystal clear water and if you bring snorkeling gear you will see the beautiful coral reef and loads of tropical fish. The main house has many amenities to keep you entertained: a roomy living area with big flat screen TV (no cable, smart tv where you can sign in to your streaming services), a bar with wine cooler and ice maker, a fully equipped kitchen and even a billiard table. Enjoy the breeze as it comes through the screened in shutters. Or enjoy the spacious porch, where you will also find a large dining table, comfortable chaise lounges and coffee table with lounge seating. The bedrooms have AC. NO AC IN THE LIVING ROOM - the area is cooled by breeze, opening shutters through screened windows!
There is an AC in the kitchen and apartment living area, they are available at an additional charge, $450 per week. ******NOTE: these AC's is not meant to cool the entire area. they are meant to cool on the spot.**** As these AC's are generally not in use, they need to be reserved in advance so we can ensure functionality.

--- PRICING INFO --- We often get questions about the price set up; this villa is already available as of 2 persons, and so there is a base occupancy rate for 2 persons. Then, for each additional guest there is an additional fee as the utilities on this island are extremely expensive. As a result a group of 10 pays more than a family of 6. And when a couple decides to stay at Villa Vista Mare, they don't pay for 10. It’s our way to cater to a wider market.
The villa is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 5.5 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. A Smart TV comes with cable channels, and guests can stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

This villa was amazing! Five couples shared this spacious villa, plenty of room for all. The kitchen is equipped with anything that you would need.We spent a lot of time at the pool area, enjoying the infinity pool and the ocean views. Look for the parrots that fly around the villa as well as the iguanas that like to lounge in the tree at the pool. Plenty of lounge chairs for everyone! Definitely recommend taking water shoes if you are planning on going into the ocean. And beware of the mosquito’s! Totally recommend this beautiful villa!

Absolutely amazing villa! We have stayed at other villas, all beautiful, on Bonaire. But this one far surpassed all. The pre- arrival communication, the welcome tour, all communication during (like when we asked for different recommendations) were on point. The villa itself is almost too good to be real. There is literally not one thing I would change about it. We spent most of our time at the pool house and watched the sun set from the pool. We snorkeled every day and loved the variety of marine life. The location is in a quiet neighborhood a few minutes from town. We all give this villa 5 stars!

We had a great stay at this amazing home just outside of Krelendijk. The house exceeded our expectations with 5 spacious air-conditioned rooms with all the amenities you would expect at an island resort. Our host Rob met us at the property and explained everything the property offered and more. He even returned a couple of times to make sure our BBQ grill would be in good working order for our Christmas Eve feast and to attend to a water supply issue quickly and efficiently. The location was perfect for us, allowing quick trips to the market and restaurants, and the reef off of our private beach was spectacular. We had plenty of snorkel gear and pool floats provided for us. Bonaire was a perfect location for our Christmas vacation with our family, and I can't imagine a better property for our family than Vista Mare. We will be back for sure. Oh, did I mention the sunsets....

Unforgettable Dive Retreat — Perfect for Connection and ComfortWe stayed here with a group of five friends on a scuba trip, and this home exceeded every expectation. Each of us had our own spacious bedroom with an en suite bathroom, making it the ideal setup for both privacy and comfort. Our goal was to have a “base camp” for diving, but also a beautiful space for meaningful conversation and connection — and this place delivered in every way.From the moment we arrived, we felt relaxed and inspired. Whether we were gathered in the open-air living space, lounging by the pool house, or enjoying the covered porch with its big dining table and comfortable sofas, there were endless spots for conversation and laughter. The infinity pool alone was stunning, the kind of view that belongs on a postcard and just steps beyond it, the ocean became our backyard dive site. Most mornings we geared up, walked ten steps to the water, and descended into a world of coral, colorful fish, and surreal underwater calm.The house itself was beautifully designed for both comfort and style. All bedrooms were air-conditioned, and the main living areas were airy and comfortable with screened windows that invited in the ocean breeze without any bugs. We were close enough to town for easy access to groceries and restaurants, yet tucked just far enough north for complete peace and privacy.We couldn’t have asked for a better place to blend adventure, luxury, and friendship.

Had a wonderful trip, exceeded our expectations! Great location with lots of great snorkeling close by, including in the back yard. Property felt like a private resort, well maintained. Rob was easy to deal with and responded quickly. We had one small issue of an air conditioner not working. Rob was at the front door within 15 minutes and had it working shortly afterwards. That was the only “issue” we had all week. We have zero complaints and we all can’t wait to go back!Highly recommend.

Pretty Darn Spectacular
The property is as lovely as the pictures show. All of us thought the place was spectacular and was everything we hoped it would be for our group. Yes, there are mosquitos, but, with the mosquito traps, the strategic use of the overhead fans and with some 'OFF' repellent they were rendered a non issue. With the doors to the house open during the day and the steady breeze form the east the temperature inside the main area is fine. Night time use of the individual bedroom AC units made for comfortable sleeping. Note: The master bedroom is a big space so pre-cooling before bed is helpful.The kitchen is big and pretty well stocked. Best to have a look through all the drawers and cabinets to take an inventory of whats available to you.Most of our time was spent at the poolside making use of all its features. Nice to have the gazebo and kitchenette and fridge. The upper level of the gazebo offers access to the easterly breeze to help mitigate the heat.To be clear, if we return to Bonaire we would not hesitate to come back and stay here again.

Great property
Great place to bring a family. With a little help you can snorkel right in front of home. The pool was awesome, because of all the trees and shrubs you will need to skim pool each morning but no big deal. Lots of places to sit and eat dinner. A 5-10 minute drive to town and grocery stores. The snorkeling is not the best we have seen but plenty of fish. Coral is having some problems. Lots of great restaurants. Took 3 families total of 8 people and plenty of room.

Fabulous Property and Water Access
This was our second stay at this property and loved it just as much this time as two years ago. The access to the water with world-class diving and snorkeling in your back yard is outstanding. The pool that overlooks the water with super comfy lounge chairs, pool house bathroom and full refrigerator creates the perfect place to hang out after a day in the water. This is a big house with plenty of space inside and outdoors for everyone to spread out if they choose or come together to enjoy the pool, play games, eat meals, etc. We did have a few issues (outdoor grill needed gas, couldn't light stove in kitchen, driveway gate broke) which were quickly fixed by management. My one suggestion for management would be to try all the ceiling fans and light fixtures in the property and make sure all are working. We had three ceiling fans that didn't operate (one inside and two outside), which makes a difference when there's no AC in the main part of the house and you want to be outside. And even though the maintenance guy could light the stove, I was never able to figure it out and gave up on cooking breakfast. Not huge deals, but when you're staying in a luxury home, you want things to work. But these issues aside, I would stay at this property again in a heartbeat. It's a beautiful place with comfy beds, plenty of towels for showers and pool, a fully stocked kitchen, places to hang dive gear, pool toys, and even a wheelbarrow to help tote dive gear down to water.

Amazing Family Holiday
We had an amazing experience here as two families vacationing together. The pool area was the definite highlight, and the home is so spacious that you can always find just the right spot to curl up, chill out or socialize depending on your mood. Area is very safe and secure and quiet, but only a short ride to town for groceries or meals or activities. House amenities are plentiful with the exception of shampoo and conditioner so make sure you bring your own. We made the mistake of buying ground coffee and the larger coffee maker uses beans so keep that in mind. And with the beauty of the gardens comes pesky little insects wanting to eat you! so come prepared with repellant (this is just good advice for Bonaire no matter where you stay!) Overall, a fantastic property - already miss the view of the sunset while sitting in the pool with a cool beverage...

Villa Vista Mare - So Luxurious!
This villa was the perfect setting for a long-anticipated friends trip, providing just the right location, space, and ambiance we needed. We gathered in the kitchen as well as the many outdoor living spaces and of course the fabulous pool for hours each day. There were also plenty of areas around the property for everyone to enjoy their alone time.
The villa was well appointed with an abundance of dishes (including non-breakable items down near the pool), towels, and storage. We also very much appreciated the ability to use the wireless speakers around the property. The large scuba rinse tank and gear storage area was useful and perfectly located as well.
Insect repellent will be mandatory and if you’re coming during an especially hot month (we visited in October and it was VERY hot), we would recommend paying for the extra AC, even if it only cools off the immediate area.
When we had a couple hiccups early on in the trip (such as inadvertently setting off an alarm – oops!), we had to bug the host late at night and the response was friendly and helpful on each occasion. They really took to heart that their guests just want everything to be perfect on a dream trip like this and handled our calls with the utmost of friendly customer service.
We would book this villa again in a heartbeat.
