*ELECTRICITY is included in the rate up to $ 20 US Dollars per night (unless specified otherwise by the owner). Due to the high costs of such usage on the island, we have been forced to set reasonable usage limits. The limit amount was derived from the limit amount by collecting data from guests who showed reasonable usage patterns for the a/c - usage during limited periods of the day/evening in the main living area and in the bedroom at night. If this amount is exceeded, the overage will be charged back to the guest after departure. Guests are able to monitor the electric meter from arrival to departure to control usage and conserve as they desire and will be informed of the current kWh rate so they can calculate their usage.

NEW TOURIST TAX
Effective July 1, 2022, a tourist tax of $75 per visit to Bonaire will apply to each non-resident 13 years of age and older. Children up to and including 12 years of age who are non-residents will pay $10 per visit to the island. The tourist tax can be paid in advance online at https://tourismtax.bonairegov.com/ or else upon arrival at the airport. Make sure you have a paper copy of your QR Code.

Excellent location and property
Great place to snorkel and stay. There is a channel that has access to great snorkeling on a small island across from the condo. Be sure to watch out for boat traffic though. The pool and scuba dunk tanks are very helpful. The property has everything you could need for a great week of diving. We rented a truck and shore dived all week. Property is walking distance from the airport which is nice too.

Great location, great condo
I would highly recommend this rental unit without reservations. The location is perfect with easy access for swimming and snorkeling. The Te Amo beach is great for relaxing and has the incomparable Kite City food truck which has awesome fish sandwiches. The best activities on the island are 1). The water taxi with float snorkeling on Klein Bonaire, 2). The national Park with the hundreds of flamingos and great beaches with snorkeling, and 3). Relaxing with food and drink at te aMo Beach. Bonaire is such a great island, and this condo is just the right distance from a great wine store and grocery store. We cooked most of our meals and the kitchen is very well equipped. Don’t forget to get a meal at Jibe City as the food is good and watching the wind surfers is lots of fun. Would definitely return!

Stunning stay
After 5 nights suffering from lack of aircondition in the living quarter due to misled information listing by Island time rental co. through VRBO. We were lucky to spotted this condo at last min at Port Bonaire and was able to cancelled the preious one and moved here . Communication with Greg was superb. He is always available. He managed to get the condo ready for us in short notice.The condo is 5 stars Plus, located on the ground floor facing the ocean with large patio. peace and quiet. Greg gave very detail information how to reach the condo step by step. Thank you for that as we are not that tech savy.The condo is airy, bright and tastefully furnished, with a very well function kitchen with all the necessity fit for a gourmet cook. The whole unit is AIRCONDITONED!! The bedroom is very comfortable.The washroom is updated and modern. We really feel at home. It is 5 min walk from the airport, but we never notice the plane landing! We spent a lot of time snorkelling by the sandy beach next door. Many marine life and endless of schools of fishes. You can also snorkel just outside the patio. They have step ladder that led to the water.There are couple of food trucks at the beach serve good food at very reasonable price. Grocery stores are only 5 to 10 min drive away. We love our stay and will be back again.

Perfect Accommodation
Just left Serene Dream (reluctantly), could’ve stayed there for much longer. The unit has everything one could possibly want /need, including all the basic spices, olive oil etc. As an added bonus, there’s a wonderfully affectionate little brown/beige cat named Shiva that lives next door who visited regularly when we sat on the deck for breakfast. Greg (host) could not nave been any kinder or more helpful. He checked in regularly to see if he could help us in any way with recommendations/directions etc. The unit itself is lovely and precisely as shown in the pictures listed. We only used the A/C in the bedroom overnight but it worked very well and quickly cooled the room. Not sure about the A/C in the main area as we only used to pedestal fan. Loved that there’s proper hangers for wetsuits/BCDs on the deck, so helpful and easy. Really enjoyed the location at the main access point to the marinas, so lovely to watch the sailboats and many pleasure craft going buy. Sunsets are pretty awesome to watch with little Shiva too:). The small complex has a lovely swimming pool with an abundance of comfy chairs that seem to mostly sit empty as visitors seem to be on the go all the time. You definitely need to rent a vehicle when in Bonaire as it’s not at all pedestrian friendly with few sidewalks, narrow roads with no real shoulder. Avis is right across the street so it’s pretty easy but there’s many other rental car options. Book this unit with confidence, you honestly can’t go wrong!

Total bliss
The condo is the perfect size for a couple. Both the grounds and the unit are really well maintained, clean and lovely. Owners were very responsive as we planned our trip, and they gave us great advice about everything from grocery shopping, to renting a truck, to good places to eat. We loved hanging out on the porch, watching the azure sea, iguanas, wild parakeets, and boats. There's phenomenal snorkeling right off the dock-- we saw an octopus, green moray, and countless gorgeous fish right there! (Tip: Dive Friends has a really good reef-safe mask defogger. Use reef-friendly sunscreen to help protect the amazing sea creatures.) Serene Dream truly lived up to its name!

Amazing Christmas getaway
When you first check in to Serene Dream at Port Bonaire you are struck by the amazing view out the back deck of the condo. There is a really good beach with food trucks and snorkeling just though a gate on the south side of the property. There is also dive/snorkeling sites right from the property's pier. A short swim across a boating channel (very easy to swim across) opens up to a nice rock/reef structure with a ton of fish. Around the point you can follow the reef around to some of the resort snorkel areas where the fish are very friendly and swim right up to you. The pool/pool area was a nice addition. We spent some time there after a day or snorkeling the other amazing spots on the island. The connected patio was perfect for morning coffee and a happy hour beer. Greg and Suzette were very responsive and had many recommendations leading up to out trip. Would definitely stay here again.

Golden Wedding Anniversary Trip
Location excellent, adjacent to one of the nicest beaches on the island. Scenic views from patio, binoculars would have been nice. The owners should have been made aware that there were major renovations scheduled to be taking place in the unit directly above us. Deconstruction and restoration with power tools started by seven most mornings for first week and a half of our two week trip. At times, we couldn't carry on a conversation inside or on the patio due to the noise level. This certainly did not create the 'serene' setting we had been expecting. The owners should have informed us of the situation prior to our arrival in order that we could have explored other options.

We had a wonderful stay at Serene Dream Bonaire. The property was clean, spacious and conveniently located close to town, supermarkets and beaches. There is a lovely porch that looks out to the water. There are steps leading to the ocean for snorkeling, diving and swimming and a beautiful swimming pool. It was well stocked with everything we needed to cook a few of our meals including spices, oil, and cooking pans. The owners provided extremely detailed instructions. We appreciated that toiletries were provided since our bags were delayed and did not arrive until the third day of our stay.

Paradise!
This place was a perfect size for 2 people. Especially since your only there at night most of the time. This place is right on the water with amazing views! Very nice back patio that leads you to the pool or right into the water to go snorkeling! The community is gated which gives that extra sense of security. It’s literally right across the street from the airport. Our flight out left at 6:30am so we had to return the rental car the night before. It literally took us 2-3 minutes to walk over and inside the airport. That was nice!! The property owners give a very detailed handout that explains everything and they were ALWAYS responding quickly to VRBO messages. They were also very nice on giving links for things to do. They were a pleasure to work with. I can’t say enough about their place or the great people that i know they are. Thank you guys for a wonderful time and opening your place to us! We will 100% stay here again when we go back some day!!

Couldn't ask for more...
Let me start by saying you won't find a better host. Even before we actually reserved the apartment, Gregory was super responsive to general questions we had about the amenities of the apartment itself as well as the property, the dive shop next door, even truck rentals on the island. He was always available for any questions we had during our trip and was even proactive about telling us about Bonaire Culinair that would be going on while we were there. He has even put together a little handbook about the island (store hours, tipping, dress code, etc) and restaurant recommendations. The apartment is well thought out and has everything you need - comfortable bed and furniture, clothes hangers, kitchen supplies and appliances, power strips for electronics, towels, beach supplies (chairs, towels and a small cooler) and even BC and wetsuit hangers on the patio. We did not want/wish for anything that we didn't have. The location/property is amazing. We spent a lot of time on the patio watching the boats go in and out of the marina and the beautiful sunsets. The beach next door is walking distance and there are food trucks there every day for the times you don't want to go out or cook. There are steps into the ocean right in front of the patio with a shower and rinse tank right there. The dive shop is at the other end of the complex and is easy walking distance, even with all of your gear. We did morning boat dives with them and it was so convenient! We'll be back, for sure!

Peaceful, relaxing, gorgeous stay
This condo was exactly as described and perfect for our stay! The location was absolutely perfect! So convenient being next to the airport and noise from airplanes was not an issue at all. I could sit and take in the view from the porch all day! Our dive trip got changed to a snorkeling trip right before we left for vacation because we found out that we are expecting our first child :). Which was completely ok seeing as some of our favorite snorkeling we did was less than 20 steps from our patio. The bed is comfortable and we had everything we needed to cook multiple times at the condo. Wifi worked well the entire trip. Restaurants, gym, gas starion and supermarket are all less than a 5-10 minute drive. We cant wait to come back to Bonaire and we will definitely be looking to stay at this condo again.

Perfect spot in Bonaire!
We loved this condo! Greg and Suzette were great and gave us tons of advice and information on Bonaire, dining, activities, etc. The condo is excellent. It is a quick walk over from the airport whether you rent a car or not, but we never really heard the limited number of airplanes flying in. Being an end unit was perfect for sunsets and water views from the patio. Access to the water was easy since you are right near the ladder and a short swim to some of the best snorkeling we did on the trip. The beach and the food trucks were very close as well, and there are so many great restaurants within 2 to 10 minutes by car max. Overall, we will definitely stay here next time we come back!
