The Lac Bay Casitas are a bit too remote if you are looking for easy access to nightlife and shopping. But this is a great home base if your main reason for visiting Bonaire is windsurfing. You need a vehicle. Windsurf equipment rentals and sailing (Sorobon Beach) is 5 minutes away.
The apartment isn't fancy, but the beds are comfortable and the neighbourhood is quiet. The kitchen is basic, with no oven or dishwasher, and there are no laundry facilities. Air conditioning is available in the bedrooms if you need it. The neighbourhood is small and remote (maybe a dozen houses in total) but there is a nice restaurant (Foodies) open for dinner 5 days a week if you don't feel like cooking.
Great place at a great price, There were 2 of us and we each had our own bedroom and bathroom, also had sitting room, dining table and kitchenette. 5 minutes to windsurfing at Sorobon Beach. Half the price of the resort we stayed at last year. The property manager (Petra) was super available, helpful and friendly.
I've never given a 5 star review before, but there was just nothing to complain about here. It's just that good!
Comfortable condo at the perfect location three minutes drive to windsurfing rentals. The property is clean; the kitchen is nicely equipped. Communication with the property manager was quick and efficient. My friend and I absolutely enjoyed our stay.
The place offers everything one needs during vacation. Nice quiet neighborhood, enough space for two couples, close to windsurfing. Petra was very responsive and offered a ride from the airport (which we didn't need but appreciated the offer).
Nice quiet location. Only a 5 minute drive or scooter ride from Lac Bay so easy to pop back and forth multiple times a day for windsurfing, wing sailing, snorkelling, or just general beach time. The beds are comfortable and the basic kitchen (stove top, no oven) is set up with everything we needed. Great restaurant (Foodies) just a few steps from your door if you donât feel like cooking.
We had a wonderful time in the casita. The location is perfekt especialy if you plan to windsurf. Its quite and foodies one of our favorite restaurants just a 5 Min. walk away.
If there is a problem its takong care of rightaway.
If we come back to Bonair I think we might stay again in this casita .
We have stayed at this property for consecutive years and are never disappointed.

Great place!
Our family of 4 stayed here for a week, and it was a great home base for easy access to Lac Baii windsurfing (5 min drive or 20 min walk)
The place was not fancy, but suited our needs perfectly. The manager Petra was friendly and helpful. Great food next door at Foodies of we wanted to eat out. The basic kitchen (stove top but no oven) worked well for preparing our own meals the rest of the time. The beds were comfortable, and the nights were quiet and peaceful. We would definitely stay here again.
I love this particular Casita. The owners are so accommodating and helpful. The property manager Petra is lovely and will help you anyway she can. They even had a taxi waiting for us on arrival so we didnât have to figure out travel ourselves.
Perfect, just perfect!
We really enjoyed the Apartment. It had everything in it that made for a comfortable and quiet stay. We had most all of our meals in, and found to have most of the necessities. The air conditioning worked very well; and on some days well appreciated. It was very clean and well looked after. Close to markets, and town. Yet far enough away to enjoy the county side. We felt very safe while staying here. We would definitely choose to stay here again; and would recommend it to anyone looking to stay on Bonaire.
I've been coming to Bonaire for years and had never stayed at the Casitas. Perfect local and the manager Petra was wonderful. She made the whole stay easy!

charming and comfortable, ideal windsurfing location
This lovely apartment was the perfect spot for a peaceful and relaxing stay in Bonaire. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and well-maintained. The kitchenette was a bit basic but did include everything necessary for preparing all meals, including a new full-sized fridge and freezer. All of the electronics worked well and the internet connection was good and consistent. The location is ideal for access to Lac Bay, the main windsurfing spot on Bonaire - it is within easy walking distance (20 minutes, although you are almost always offered a lift by passing cars before you can walk more than 5 minutes - It is safe and easy to get lifts on Bonaire.) The owners answered all emails promptly (often within minutes) and never failed to provide friendly and helpful information - thank you Ilse and Maarten! The value for comfortable, private, quiet accommodations is unbeatable. I really felt at home. If you are a windsurfer and don't want to rent a car, you can't do better than this.
