Casa Presioso Villa 3 2 6 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 Casa Presioso. 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. Guest reviews 9.9/10 28 reviews More info Totally lived up to the photos! The villa looked wonderful in the photos and it totally lived up to them! I didn't realize that the bedrooms were on the lower floor, and the living area upstairs, but that was fine. The living area has wonderful views to enjoy with the morning coffee. Read more 7th May 2025 by Bryan via Outstanding home with great views We really enjoyed our stay at Casa Presioso. The home was well-equipped and had a great set up for our scuba gear. The view from the patio is amazing. The location is perfect for divers - just minutes from Dive Friends shop and equally close to the northern and southern dive sites. Read more 15th Apr 2025 by Walter via Comfortable home for enjoying Bonaire Set a little higher up, so you get the cooler breezes, but still have a beautiful view of the ocean. The home is just as advertised: fitted out for having meals in, and maintained well. Many places to lounge around: the deck on the front of the house, the deck on the back of the house, the patio by the pool—each furnished for sitting or dining or lounging. Communications from the host and the owner were both timely and informative. We opted to rent the loaner trucks en it was also very good. Read more 6th Apr 2025 by Steven via Bonaire Beauty This home is a gem situated on a lot that felt very private with panoramic views of the ocean. The primary bedroom bed was incredibly comfy and the air conditioner kept us comfortable. The kitchen is well appointed and the welcome snacks & drink were appreciated. There isn't a microwave - no big deal. There were many comfy seating areas to choose from. We loved watching all the birds - parrots, troupials, & doves and the sunsets were stunning. The pool was very private and nice to relax in after a day in the ocean. The dive rinse stations were also convenient. Home is about 8 mins from main downtown area. Owners & host were super helpful & responsive! Read more 20th Jan 2025 by Mandy via NYE Fireworks view was amazing! All communications, car replacement, snacks an beverages, clean view of the water was all wonderful. A NYE from the upper patio was an experience of a lifetime! Read more 7th Jan 2025 by Barb via We loved our stay here despite a few hiccups The highlights of this house are the views, the pool, and the peaceful surroundings. Roel and Nathalie were excellent to work with. Communication was great and they were very accommodating with the problems we had. The vehicle we rented from Roel was a bust and we lost several days of being able to travel freely. Not their fault but it was disappointing nonetheless. There is no microwave which I failed to notice in the listing. The AC is limited to the three bedrooms on the lower level. The kitchen and main living area is upstairs and with no AC it gets very hot and uncomfortable especially the first few days trying to adjust to the weather. My wife got stung by a scorpion that found its way into her shoe inside the home. That was a rough way to end 2024. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and loved Bonaire. Read more 3rd Jan 2025 by Josh via Fantastic vacation with warm and loving hosts Villa Casa Presioso is a dream in itself. In conjunction with the two hosts Roel & Mariëlle and the local support of Nathalie - who manages the property - we were able to enjoy an unforgettable vacation on the beautiful island of Bonaire for the second time. In our experience, it couldn't have been more friendly, warm and beautiful. It's just a shame that we can't award more than five stars. Read more 3rd Nov 2024 by Uwe via 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.

We used the pool morning, noon and night. Do not miss this house. Read more 7th Sep 2024 by Kimberly via 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!
