Luxurious Villa with Panoramic Ocean View, Private Pool and optional Car

Casa Presioso is a beautiful two-story house on a private cul-de-sac in Santa Barbara on the island of Bonaire in the Dutch Caribbean (former Netherlands Antilles). Being built on the hill, it has a spectacular free panoramic view overlooking the ocean, Kralendijk and the islet Klein Bonaire.

Relax in the private pool with spacious sundeck, lie back in the lush cushions of our lounge area on the porch, or enjoy the serenity of every-day's beautiful sunsets after dinner on the outdoor dining room on the second floor - the best way to conclude another day of diving or snorkeling!

Casa Presioso has room for 6 people. Bedrooms accommodate 2 persons. On special request we can put in an extra foldable bed for one extra (7th) person. If you require separate bedrooms and/or extra beds, it is possible to order and use an extra bed(room) for an additional fee of 1 extra person (to cover for cleaning, bedlinen and utilities); please notify the owner if that is you wish. For a baby or toddler (up to 2 years) there is always place available for no extra cost (if no extra bedroom is needed). If you require anything extra: we welcome special requests and try our best to fulfil them.

All bedrooms have A/C and traditional ceiling fans with light and remote control. The master bedroom has a king-size bed and private bathroom. The other two bedrooms have large double beds that can be separated into two single beds and a shared bathroom.

Casa Presioso is especially well suited and equipped for divers and snorkelers: on the side of the house you will find separate rinse tanks for clothes, dive equipment and underwater photo/film gear, as well as a (lockable) drying area.

Casa Presioso owns a Ford double cabin (5p) pickup with automatic transmission, which we offer our guests to borrow when staying at the house. The car will be delivered to you clean and with a full tank of gas and you simply return it with a full tank again. As borrower you only pay for the cost of full insurance and depreciation of the car: €45 (less than US$50) per night of your stay, all-inclusive. You do not pay any additional taxes or fees a rental company would charge you. For comparison: commercial rental companies advertise with low daily rates, but then add the cost of insurance ($15-$25 per day), extra costs for extra drivers or child seats, 'location fee' for being for having an office at or near the airport (6% on total), and VAT (6% on total), which results in doubling the cost they advertise.

For guests that lend our car, we are able to reduce waiting times after your arrival to zero: we offer our guests a free transfer from the airport to our house and back again. On arrival transportation will be waiting for you to bring you directly to our house, where you will be welcomed by our property manager. For your return home the same is true: you will be picked up from the house and brought back to the airport. In case your flight does not leave for several hours, you may also choose to go to Kralendijk or a beach club of your choice between our house and the airport, to enjoy your last hours on the island to the fullest (in which case you will organize your own last transfer to the airport).

The computer in the living room is free to use. Use it to upload your photos to your Facebook or Flickr account, or view your slideshow on the TV screen in the living room! Throughout the house you will have (unlimited) hi-speed (100Mb) WiFi access.

The free-standing villa has a large and beautiful garden (1088 m² / 11,711 sq. ft.) with palm trees, bougainvillea and oleanders that bloom the whole year through.

Brilliant Home & Hosts!
The property was exactly as advertised and the option to rent their vehicle during our stay an added bonus. The house was more than spacious for our family of five and the pool/deck area well set up for relaxing outside without cooking in the sun! The location of the home is extremely central with a short drive (<10min) getting you to most places.

Great Vacation
The property was absolutely beautiful. It is a small island so everything is really close by car. We rented the truck that the property has and it was great for getting around. The pool was a huge win for my 7 year old daughter. Any issues we had, were promptly addressed. I definitely recommend this property for your trip to Bonaire.

Our Home Away from Home
We just spent another glorious month at Casa Presioso and thoroughly enjoyed it. We keep coming back, and in fact booked our next year’s vacation while we were there. The reasons we return every year are manifold: great pool with fantastic privacy; lots of fun wildlife around the property including lizards, parrots, and hummingbirds; mosquito netting around the beds with air conditioning if you need it; conveniently located and in a quiet area of Bonaire; responsive property manager nearby (though we hardly ever have had to call her); great range of appliances and utensils. And everything works as it should. Highly recommended. Lovely stress-free relaxation!

Absolutely gorgeous house, wonderful stay
The house is really lovely, the pool and patio area (as well as the upstairs deck with seating for 6) are perfect. We were on Bonaire for our second dive trip (stayed in a condo by the airport the first time) and loved this location. The house is the perfect size for 6 people (two couples and two teenagers who shared a room) and the owners are extremely responsive. The AC in the bedrooms is icy cold, the beds are comfortable, and the kitchen is extremely well stocked (blender, crockpot, bbq grill, etc all in excellent shape). The (optional) truck rental worked great as well. Not a single complaint. We cannot wait to come back and stay here again.

Perfect In Every Way!
Everything about this house is perfect. The owners and the manager are so very knowledgeable, kind, and helpful. The house is very well stocked with anything you could need. The beds are comfortable. The drinks, snacks, and food for the first day’s breakfast were much appreciated. The kitchen is well supplied for the cook. The grounds are lovely and nicely landscaped. The trees and shrubs provide privacy around the pool. We particularly enjoyed seeing the parrots flitter about in the trees. There are multiple places to sit outside and relax or enjoy a meal. We enjoyed everything about this house. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your home.

Worry free vacation
My family and I have rented several vacation properties on Bonaire over the years and I would have to say that Casa Presioso is overall one of the best we have rented. The property is reasonably priced when considering the quality of the home and all of its amenities. The unobstructed view of Klein and the surrounding area from the outdoor dining area and the second refrigerator near the pool are just a couple of the value added features this home has to offer. The Santa Barbara location of this villa gave us exactly what we wanted, a safe and secure neighborhood environment away from the tourist areas but centrally located. I would highly recommend this property to others seeking to rent a home on Bonaire. In my opinion, this property is professionally managed and well maintained by the owner. Our vacation was truly worry free!

Great location for divers
Charming house surrounded by a lovely garden, that turns the breakfast table into bird watching spot. Spacious house with a lot of places to relax on balconies and terasse with pool. Well equipped kitchen. Not brand new but all well maintained, clean and charming. For divers the outside washing and storage facility (including storage boxes) is a real comfort factor. Located in a quiet neighbourhood the house is far enough away from cruise ship tourism but centrally located on the island so everything is easily reached and you can feel as a temporary member of the island community. Great base for independent divers to explore the really amazing under water world of Bonaire. Very friendly and effective communication with house owners and their local representative. So all logistics around rental, airport pickup was very smooth and easy. Overall excellent and highly recommendable experience!

Outstanding
We really loved this place. Lots of room, convenient location, and amazing panoramic views of the island and sunsets. The pool was much larger than I thought it would be, the TV has more channels than you'd know what to do with, and the bed was very comfortable. My one and only negative is that there is no air conditioner in the upstairs living area. It's more than comfortable during the day with all the doors and windows open due to the breeze, but we had to close the doors a little before sunset because of the mosquitoes. At that point, it got pretty uncomfortable up there, even with the screened windows open, since the ceiling fan doesn't have enough power to create any air movement. I was told they are considering adding screen doors up there, which would be outstanding. But don't let that scare you away. This place is great.

Perfect private villas
We had a fantastic month-long stay at Casa Presioso and we had a wonderful time. The house is slightly off the street, making for a quiet and private residence. In addition, large bushes around the house make for even greater privacy. You might hear your neighbours in the distance, but you will never see them from the back patio/pool. The kitchen was very well stocked with spices, dishes, pots, pans, and tupperware. We probably used just about everything there. The appliances work very well. We agree with other reviews that the downstairs fridge truly is a godsend for lounging around the pool/patio. It will need to be replaced should it ever go on the fritz! The bedrooms and bathrooms are very good and clean. We especially enjoy the mosquito netting around all the beds. The patio and upstairs outdoor eating area are both perfect and well shaded. Finally, the best reason for us to stay there (over and above the great facilities listed above) is the many birds, lizards and iguanas that make their home in and around the property. Great fun to watch (and listen to!). Highly recommended. We booked our next stay before we even finished our current holiday. I think that says it all.

Traumhafter Urlaub bei herzlich-liebevollen Gastgebern
Die Villa Casa Presioso ist für sich genommen schon ein Träumchen. In Zusammenhang mit den beiden Gastgebern Roel & Mariëlle und der Unterstützung vor Ort durch Nathalie - sie verwaltet das Anwesen - durften wir zum zweiten Mal einen unvergesslich schönen Urlaub auf der wunderschönen Insel Bonaire genießen. Sympathischer, herzlicher und schöner ist nach unseren Erfahrungen nicht möglich. Schafe nur, dass wir nicht mehr als fünf Sterne vergeben können.

Wonderful vacation rental
The property is beautiful! It is in a neighborhood, but the landscaping makes it to where it is very private! The pool was wonderful, perfect to cool off in and relax. The kitchen has pretty much anything you need to cook with. Well stocked in seasonings too! We took advantage of the rental truck they offered and so glad we did. We used the truck to go around the island to all the different dive sites. We had a few, little issues but brought those to Nathalie attention so hopefully they are able to address those prior to the next visitors stay. They were having a “heat wave” while we stayed. Evidently this was cause to have rolling blackouts. According to locals it happens more frequently due to the growing population exceeding the power grids ability to keep up. We had 3 nights in a row where power was out for 5-7 hours. I won’t lie that was tough, especially in the middle of the night. Since power outages are a known thing on the island a generator would be a great addition to the house. Access to cleaning supplies would be a nice addition as well. We would have loved an all purpose cleaner to be able to wipe down the counters, sink, etc… especially after using the kitchen. The A/C in the bedroom worked great. There is only A/C in the bedrooms so plan meals accordingly. The kitchens heats up quickly and if the wind isn’t blowing in the right direction it gets hot quickly! Overall a wonderful experience.

Overall a great experience
The house is comfortable with views of the ocean and a very private-feeling pool area. The mineral salts pool was quite nice.

We had to move our reservations a couple of times due to covid, and appreciated Roel's patience and upbeat communications.
