Absolutely Amazing Property

My wife and extended family just stayed at the Sunset Villa and we had an amazing time. The property is immaculate with a beautiful garden. It is situated in the most perfect spot where you have a wonderful dive and snorkel spot down a few stairs from the property. Thank you so much for a absolutely perfect Stay!

Perfect Dive Base camp

House was amazing, had everything you could imagine and more! Perfect spot to dive right out back door, with all the amenities to setup and break down gear. If you got a big group this is the place to be. Caught a firework show in the roof top one night, couldnt have picked a better spot!!

Gorgeous and Relaxing Villa

My family had a wonderful time at the Sunset Villa. The location was perfect and the diving in the backyard was one of the best sites. Conveniently located next door to Dive Friends allowed us to go back & forth for snorkeling and scuba gear. Each room has an en suite bath which is nice for privacy. We traveled with our 83 year old father and oyr youngest was 14. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and would rebook in the future. Peter was very responsive when we had questions. Love this place!!

Awesome place to stay

We love Bonaire and have been 6 times. This was by far the nicest place we've stayed and most convenient. The dive shop was a quick walk away from the villa. One of the better dive sites was right out the back gate! Can't wait to return!

Can't imagine a better place and nicer host

This is a vacation rental that tops all vacation rentals. First, let me say a word about the owner and host Lamber- he is an extremely nice and generous person who really went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable and special. We enjoyed meeting and interacting with him. The house itself is perfect- large, well-equipped house followed by a lovely garden and then down to the large palapa with a perfect view of the ocean. The house is also well-set up for diving with rinse tanks and lockers. The dive site (The Cliff) is right in front of the house and one of the best on Bonaire. You put it all together and it was a perfect vacation!

Absolute Perfection!!

Eight of us, 6 divers, 2 non-divers, had an absolutely wonderful week at this unbelievably beautiful house. We had to make a special effort to sit in all of the many lovely nooks and crannies of the botanical garden. Shore diving was a breeze. The owner responded to everything as soon as I hit the send button. The AC in the bedrooms was perfect. Great setup for diving. Nice location. Nothing but wonderful things to say. Hoping to come back next year.

Absolutely Perfect

This house is immaculate and more beautiful than the photos. The location is perfect, and in walking distance of a great restaurant. In addition to many excursions to dive sites across the island, we dove the reef out back every day. Every detail of how people function on vacation has been considered. We were 3 adult couples. With the double basins, the long bench, and an abundance of hooks and hangars, cleaning up after diving was a breeze. We had 4 people doing prep for dinners fitting easily in the kitchen which is stocked with every dish and tool imaginable. There are 2 gathering and eating spaces with plenty of room for 10 people. The fixtures and appliances are top of the line. 3/4 of the way through the stay Lamber asked if there is anything we could suggest to improve the place, and I couldn't think of a thing. We will be back and will probably invite another couple because there was so much space and convenience.

Heaven on earth

My husband, 5 year old daughter, mom, dad, brother, sister-in-law, and 1 year old niece and I enjoyed a wonderful stay on the property. The location was wonderful and we really enjoyed the restaurants which were within walking distance. We also enjoyed grilling out next to the ocean! We spent most of our time outside under the shade or sunbathing next to the sea. The snorkeling right off the steps of the property was amazing. It’s also right off a dive site called The Cliff where my husband and I enjoyed a couple dives. It was a wonderful, relaxing trip and Lamber and Jacqueline were great hosts. They met us at the property where we all enjoyed a cold beer upon check in and they even had a flamingo and a turtle stuffed animal for the kiddos. They were so thoughtful. We love this island and loved our stay in the sunset villa. Can’t wait to come back ASAP!

Family Vacation in Bonaire

We had an absolutely wonderful and amazing first diving vacation in Bonaire. Celebrating the New Year with our 3 adult children, we reserved the Villa a year in advance. The pictures do not do the property justice - all rooms were clean, the bedrooms were equipped with comfortable beds and an appropriate sized bathroom. The kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil, pot, pan, and storage container you would need to prepare your meals. Lamber and Jacqueline were wonderful hosts. Sunset Villa is ideally located north of Kralendijk, which is a bit less crowded than the southern part of Bonaire, with direct entry to the water and the Cliff dive site. Although we dove at different sites around the island every day, we also spent most afternoons diving the Cliff and relaxing in the back yard well past the sunsets. When dining at the villa we ate all our meals outside to enjoy the beautiful scenery. We did utilize the air conditioning while sleeping but otherwise had the windows open all day and found the house was not uncomfortably hot. Coordinating the logistics of our first visit to Bonaire was easy and Lamber arranged for our rental car, night dive, and our equipment rental for the week. Lamber checked in with us often to ensure we were enjoying ourselves and provided excellent suggestions for the two nights we ate out and even made the reservations for our party of 5. In addition, to ensure we didn't get lost Lamber drove us to a local fish market so we could enjoy fresh caught Barracuda on our last night in the villa. Since we were visiting during the New Year Jacqueline made us some authentic Dutch pastries to enjoy on the 1st. This is truly a 5 star property, 5 star experience, and 5 star hosts. When we return to Bonaire we hope to stay here again.

This villa and owners go over and beyond expectations in all aspects. The cleanliness the decor the gardens and the hospitality! Kitchen is wonderful with excellent gas stove/oven ,side by side refrigerator, great dishwasher, everything you will need to cook if you so choose. Also convenient to multiple restaurants either to walk or drive. Our location was in the prime spot to have great access to diving and snorkeling both being steps away The view from our garden and outside area to watch sunset was fabulous!! The gardens were filled with gorgeous native flowers and colorful birds. We have already booked 2 weeks for next year. You will be exceptionally happy by staying here!

Fantastic place - great communication - exactly as advertised

This was our family's first trip to Bonaire so we had to rely on on-line research and reviews. We selected Sunset Villa because it was an ideal location, the right size and had good reviews. We had several email communications with Lamber and he was always responsive and helpful. He assisted us with transport, rental vehicles and dive equipment weeks before we arrived. When we arrived, all went smoothly! Lamber met us at the property upon our arrival, showed us around and even set us up with snacks! The house was great! It was stocked with an ice machine and coolers that we brought to dive sites, a place to clean and securely store our dive gear, several outstanding outdoor seating areas, and a great view of the water! One of the best dive sites on the island was literally steps away from the patio! Overall, we would recommend Sunset Villa and especially Lamber andwe plan to visit again!

Fantastic Stay

From the initial communication to checking out, everything was absolutely top notch and fantastic. The property is everything you could want. The gardens are beautiful, the house is clean and inviting, the attention to detail is amazing, and the dive facilities rivaled some of the hotels I've stayed at. We had 10 people and we didn't feel like we were on top of each other. It is located in the perfect location on the island. Close to town without having to be in downtown. Thank you Lamber for all your hospitality. The only downside was having to leave.

EVERYTHING you could possibly want

Our hosts absolutely exceeded our expectations! Short of staying with some of my favorite friends or relatives, I could not have felt more welcomed or pampered. Everything, from communicating before we arrived, to meeting us at the car rental office, the villa walk through, the frequent check-ins to make sure everything was meeting our needs, and seeing us off on the final day, was executed perfectly. The pictures on the site do not even begin to capture the warmth and beauty of the villa. The property had everything you could possibly need and offered the perfect setting for me to celebrate my retirement with some of my closest friends and family. There was enough space for everyone to spread out, but we always wound up together on the patio or in the spectacular garden. The reef, just down the stairs, offered some of the best snorkeling I've ever enjoyed. Lamber, you made my celebration holiday perfect. I'll always cherish your lovely gift and feel like I now have a friend in Bonaire. Take care. Hope to do this again, my friend!

Couples Retreat

Our group had 4 couples. This property was such a perfect fit for our group. We had the best time. Our host, Lambèr, was so helpful leading up to our trip and very accommodating during our stay. He took time to show us around the Villa the day we arrived pointed us in the direction of some spots we may need that night, and then came the next day to show us points of interest on the Island map. The Villa’s direct access to the ocean right of the patio has top notch snorkeling. We snorkeled everyday. Humming birds fluttered around the garden during the day. Just absolutely gorgeous and relaxing. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed. Hands down one of our best vacations to date. Cannot wait to come back with our family!!

Most amazing place right on the water

This VRBO was just great. Lamber was wonderful to work with. Great at all communications. He even left a tray of goodies & refreshment for us to enjoy when we arrived. The house is even better than described and the yard out to the water is amazing. We especially enjoyed the table by the water under the shade. It was so nice to sit in the sun on the lounge chairs, but when the sun was too much we easily moved to the table. We ate every breakfast & dinner at the table by the water. The rooms are very nice and the bathrooms are wonderful & updated. If you are a diver, the area for you equipment is really great. Easy to get to from our truck, but if we wanted to dive or snorkel right off of our area, we could easily get to all of our equipment. There is also an ice machine with came in very handy when using the cooler. The only area that could be improved would be the kitchen. It is very nice and has all you need. However, I could see it being updated sometime in the future. The photos of this house are exactly as it looks, except the garden & yard are even better. Thanks Lamber....you are a great host. The 10% coupon for our diving was an added bonus.

Wonderful Villa & Location on Bonaire

This was our second stay at Sunset Villa and it was the same as our first - excellent. To say that the owners Lambèr and Jacqueline are attentive, and great people, would be an understatement. Not much else can be said about the superb Villa that has not been said already - five private and lockable rooms each with an on-suite bath, a safe, a mini fridge, WIFI, and new A/C units. The villa has a large and fully stocked kitchen, BBQ grill by the ocean stocked with lump charcoal, and a never ending supply of ice via the outdoor ice maker. There are plenty of areas in the patios/balconies/gardens to get away from the group if you so desire. For divers, the rinse tanks, dive lockers, drying racks, gear up area and shower would be the envy of any fine dive shop. The Cliff dive site is right off the back patio via a private gated entrance to the sea. Dive Friends dive shop is just around the corner for super easy tank access. The Villa location is perfect to easily access the islands many amenities. We look forward to our next stay at the Villa, but really, YOU should stay somewhere else - it is getting harder for us to find open dates on the calendar!

Sunset Villa Made 8th Trip the Best

This was our eighth time to Bonaire; but first time renting a villa, and we are now spoiled. Lamber and Jacqueline's home made this dive trip the best one yet. Our group was three couples. The house had everything you could need--huge well stocked kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and great amenities to support active divers. The back garden is absolutely delightful with all the plants and flowers, hummingbirds, and visiting iguanas! We enjoyed all of our meals in the many outdoor areas, sunbathed, and made shore dives right off the back steps! There was enough space that everyone in our group could spread out and have some privacy too. Several mornings we went up on the roof to watch the sunrise and listen to the roosters and island dogs wake up the day. Thanks to Lamber and Jacqueline for making Sunset Villa such a special place!

A Real Jewel

I recently spend 2 weeks at Sunset Villa with a group of friends and we all had a wonderful vacation while staying at Sunset Villa. The house was really pretty, super comfortable, practical, and had a very well equipped kitchen with new appliances including an ice maker. Everything is new and very well maintained. The house is located right on the water and the snorkeling in front of the villa was really beautiful. It’s great just being able to jump in the water right from your house. The outdoor rinse station for gear, fresh water shower, drying racks, and closets, for snorkeling and diving gear were a huge benefit as well. The owners, Lamber and Jacqueline, checked in on us a few times just to make sure everything was going well and to make sure that all of our needs were met. They provide a local cell phone to call them if needed, and to use for making local calls and reservations. They also responded very quickly to emails. I cannot speak highly enough about Sunset Villa as well as Lamber and Jacqueline. The house is a real jewel and the hosts were so friendly and caring. You, your friends, and family would love renting this villa! J. Johnston
