Sunwise insider tip
Just a short drive south lies Atlantis Kitebeach, one of the most challenging and acclaimed kitesurfing spots in the Caribbean. This southern coast offers constant offshore winds, meaning the wind always blows from land toward sea – ideal for experienced kitesurfers but also a safe environment for beginners since the wind pushes you toward open water. The beach is known for its consistent wind conditions and clear, shallow waters perfect for practicing new tricks. For non-kitesurfers, it's a fascinating spectacle to watch these colorful kites in action against the backdrop of Bonaire's dramatic southern coastline.
Just so you know
No indoor dining table – you can dine wonderfully outside on the terrace with views over the lagoon
No dryer – fortunately laundry dries bone-dry within hours thanks to Bonaire's sun and wind
No BBQ – for a cozy barbecue you can visit public BBQ spots like Donkey Beach

The neighborhood
The artificial lagoon between Kralendijk and the airport, connected to the Caribbean Sea via channels. Around the lagoon are villas, small-scale resorts and hotels (including Ocean Breeze, Plaza Beach Resort and Water Villas Bonaire), often with boat slips at home. The water is sheltered and calm – perfect for kayaking, SUP and relaxed waterfront living – with direct sailing connection to the open sea and dive spots along the west coast.
Getting around
Bonaire and especially the hotspots like Washington Slagbaai National Park, the remote pristine beaches, and the kitesurf and windsurf locations, are best enjoyed with a rental car, as our lovely Caribbean island has so much more to offer beyond the immediate surroundings of Ocean Breeze El Trupial. With your own car you can explore remote snorkel spots, dive sites and local restaurants at your own pace. We strongly recommend renting a car so you can get everywhere easily. Most roads on Bonaire are paved, but for nature areas like the park, a pickup truck or SUV is advisable. The park roads are unpaved and sometimes rough, making a regular car less suitable. There is no public transport on Bonaire and taxis are limited, especially on busy days when a cruise ship is in port.

Spacious waterfront apartment
My visit to Bonaire was for business and lasted 3 weeks. The apartment met all my requirements namely on the first floor, at least two air conditioners, a washing machine, a kitchen and parking in front of the door. The apartment is right on the water and the view is magnificent. I really enjoyed my stay in El Trupial and it was a pity that after three weeks I had to leave this perfect vacation location. The airport is a stone's throw away but there is little or no nuisance from the airport.

Wonderful time in Bonaire due to the great service provided by Sunwise
I had a wonderful time in Bonaire. One big reason for this was the great service provided by Sunwise.
If there is a problem it’s resolved very quickly. Simon is their point man and he is quick in getting the job done. Furthermore he is a very nice person to work with. Ymka checked me and out of my rental and she was very helpful, affordable and nice. All of the employees that I have encountered over the years have been nice and professional I would highly recommend this company to anyone. I have already booked my stay with Sunwise and can’t wait to return. Have a great stay in beautiful Bonaire!

We had a wonderful time there!
Nice apartment in a beautiful waterfront location with a cozy restaurant, De Dock, just around the corner. Lots of privacy and a peaceful, safe environment. The apartment is a bit outdated in terms of furniture. It is conveniently located in the center of the island, only 1 minute from the airport, but you don't hear any noise. Parking is available right in front of the door. We had a wonderful time there!
