Charming oceanfront villa, great house reef near restaurant and dive operation

This ocean front villa with 5 bedrooms and accommodation for 10 is great for families or small dive groups. Use this centrally located villa to explore all the island activities or stay close to home for the best of Bonaire snorkel and diving..
There are five bedrooms each with king/2 twins and a private bathroom. All windows are screened and secure to enjoy the ocean breezes, day and night, mosquito free. This oceanfront rental provides space where guests can gather or each can enjoy some privacy. The newly renovated (2017), open floor plan, kitchen and living area allows for great eat-in opportunities or gathering for evening chats. We are aiming to support the Bonaire eco-friendly philosophy with fully screened windows, water saving utilities and planned solar hot water. All rooms have A/C but it’s rarely needed with full screens and ocean breezes.
You’ll love the 360-degree panoramic view from the roof terrace or taking in the views from the seaside patio on the property. Private beach access is just steps away where you can enjoy all water activities. Divers may wish to visit the famous Cliff site which is about 100 feet from your beach. Don’t forget about the villa’s own rinse tank, secure dive room and outside shower.
You’ll also have access to a shared pool at the Hamlet Oasis Complex or a very short walk to visit the two nearby dive shops or a great oceanfront restaurants.

New years week with two families
Fabulous outside space and easy access into water to a very nice reef. Great location, could walk to store, marina and ice cream.Really excellent price and easily fit 9 adults.New years we could see fire works all over the island Said there was dish washer and there was not. Kitchen equipment (cutting boards)were grimey but house was spotless. Kitchen supplies need once over. Property manager was slow in responsiveness but otherwise helpful (told us we could check out late after the check out time). But one of our party took house key with them and they were helpful in arranging pick up of key from Avis.

Beautiful, clean villa right on the beach
Very clean villa right on the beach within easy walking distance of three dive shops. Five separate bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Kitchen is well stocked with enough pots, pans, and tableware for a large group. Communication with the hosts was excellent while preparing for the trip.

Week Long Stay with 6 adults
Location - ideal as it is right on the water, a walk down to snorkel off rocky coral beach. Basically at "Cliff" dive site. Sitting out on the patio in the morning and evening was a precious part of the day. Grocery store across the street. Beds comfortable, rooms spacious...plenty of space for our group of six...more would also be fine. You do need a car but that is true all over Bonaire.

Dream Vacation
This property was such a dream. Being able to walk out the back and drink coffee in the morning, watch the sunset, snorkel with an amazing reef (watch out for the fire coral though), and located to great food and fun. We had such an enjoyable time. We all want to come back. Water is clean to drink from faucet. Kitchen had plenty of items to cook with. Beds are comfy, but maybe bring a pillow if you don't like really fluffy ones. Spacious to have time to self or together. Thank you.

Great location and outdoor living space
Loved the outdoor living area for group dining and hanging out, relaxing and happy hour. Fantastic diving right in front of the property. Well stocked kitchen but had to buy a wine opener. Don’t remember what the description said but was surprised there was no hand soap provided in the bathrooms. And no shampoo. Only one shower in the house had hot water. Guess we should have contacted property management while we were there. The other bathrooms apparently had tepid water. Other than those things we had a lovely time and the villa accommodated us well. Loved having the room to clean and store our dive gear.

Great location and house but opportunity for improvement.
Biggest issue was the grey tile used on the back porch/patio/veranda and in the house. Though pretty it is slick as ice if wet or wet feet. Very difficult to avoid at a waterfront villa. Kitchen utensils, glassware and cutting boards not good. Some of the cutting boards looked moldy. One room was unusable due to a ac unit that did not work and no outside windows for ventilation. Again great house and location, tile is a concern and the finishing touches need to be considered.

Absolutely great experience overall. Owners are swift to respond, very accommodating, and a pleasure to deal with. Property is well kept up, stocked with all of the necessities, plenty of bath/beach towels, and dishes/cookware. Sunset views were absolutely unforgettable! We had a wonderful experience staying at this property and will definitely book again the next time we are in beautiful Bonaire.

Excellent property, dive shop close by, good reef for diving
This was my first stay at Hamlet Oasis. I've passed by this property numerous times on the past and have always thought it would be a good choice. Our group was 9 people; myself, my 3 children, one of my brothers, a former coworker and his wife and 2 of my coworkers friends. The accommodations were clean and exactly as described. Each bedroom has it's own bathroom. There is an outside shower (which had warm water), a very large gear storage room with a washer, a wash station right out side the gear storage room, a patio with a large table and some chairs, a 'gazebo' out by the water that provided shade. Also, there were some chairs on a flat cement spot by the seawall at the end of the property were we all spent a great amount of time looking out at Klein Bonaire in the mornings and evenings. The only issue we faced was the parking. We had two groups so we had two vehicles. The parking spot was large enough to park the trucks end-to-end but not side-by-side. Also, the narrow street to the villa was one-way from 0900 to 1700 (9 am to 5 pm). However, it was easy to mitigate this problem because there is a small parking lot close to the northern gate (there are two gates; a southern gate and a northern gate) where I would park my truck in the evening. The Dive Friends dive shop right on the property was a GREAT and convenient place for getting dive gas. This property is right on the 'Cliff' dive site and had stairs from the property down to the water. We took advantage of that convenience a couple of times. We were all very happy on this property. These Bonaire trips are an annual thing for my family so I'm sure I will check this property first when scheduling the next vacation. By the way, the photographs of the property you see on this Vrbo site are a very accurate view of the property. If you have a group of 8 - 10 people, it is my opinion that this property would be a very good choice for your group. Happy diving and bon bini, babies!

Wonderful location and beautiful property
My extended family stayed at Villa 9 in July. It is right near an excellent dive site and convenient to town. The home was a great size for us to be together without feeling cramped. The kitchen was very well-equipped with plenty of cookware, coffee making supplies, a blender, and everything else that we needed for our stay. The dive room has plenty of space to hang equipment with a wash basin just outside. The outdoor shower was a great way to rinse off after diving and snorkeling. We used the oceanside sitting area every evening for sunset drinks. The property manager was very responsive, helpful and friendly. Thanks Zwanet! A wonderful experience!

Great 5 bedroom. All King size beds so very Comfortable. AC was great, outside areas were perfect for chilling with easy water access (snorkeling, diving). Hamlet Oasis is serene and the Rum-runners bar is nice (even reasonably priced). Pizza is fine 6/10 I'd guess.

This home was the perfect size for our family and the location right on a dive site was amazing!! We were able to wake up in the morning and do early dives as well as night dives just about every day. The home is equipped with everything you need and the kitchen is totally stocked. The property manager was so kind and met us at the house to ensure we didn't have any questions about the home during our stay. We will definitely rent this home again!!!

We were thrilled with our stay . The house was well stocked, beds were extremely comfortable and the location is perfect for a relaxing stay. We arrived and found the house clean and ready for our group. Parking for more than two cars would be an issue but it would not deter me from booking again. We loved the ocean side location and the ease of getting in to the water but it could be a little tough for small children.

Choice Luxury Waterfront Villa With Access To One of Bonaire's Best Reefs Out Your Backdoor
Hard to beat the location and quality of this Bonaire Villa. The reef is right out the back door, tanks and the dive shop a few yards down the driveway, and a five minute into town to shop and dine. Nice to have the scalability of up to five air-conditioned bedrooms to fit whatever size group you decide to bring. We also enjoyed the sometimes rare treat of having the kitchen and living room air-conditioned as well. Convenient dining on the patio, a washer, a locking dive gear room, enough Adirondack chairs for the whole group to enjoy the sunsets every night.Two things I missed. A gas BBQ and a larger TV for enjoying our underwater videos and pics. A terrific place I would rent again as well as recommend to divers who also appreciate comforts of an upscale property.
