Perfect, Beautiful Home and Perfect Hosts
This was our 7th trip to Bonaire, January 2025, and our first return to the island since January 2020, just prior the pandemic. On our prior visits we have rented villas, apartments and large private homes, this was our second rental in Belnem.Rodney, Christa and their sweet Whoodle dog, Chloe, were the perfect hosts, currently living across the street from this house, and Rodney freely shares his comprehensive knowledge of everything on Bonaire from snorkeling/diving to the most current restaurant recommendations. Even better, since he and Christa designed this home, it has the best airflow, air conditioning, open plan layout and amenities we have enjoyed on Bonaire. This house is designed to allow whole house, not partial or worse in Bonaire, bedroom-only cooling, within minutes of returning home from adventures, this is amazing as we have experienced some very hot hours at other properties on Bonaire, waiting for the partial air conditioning to provide relief. Everyone who has rented a home anywhere, knows that one of the more frustrating charms of home rental are the electronics, Rodney walked us through the Alexa-based audio/electronics and spent a solid half-hour showing us the incredible range of in-house entertainment options that far surpass the options we enjoy at our own Atlanta area home. We were also streaming selections from my phone within literally seconds, which is a rarity.Highly recommended, beautiful, perfectly appointed, cleaned and managed.
