Sunwise insider tip
From Windsock Turtle you can reach Bachelor’s Beach in just a few minutes, a small sandy beach on the southern edge of Kralendijk. The beach sits at the foot of a low rock wall, creating a cozy, sheltered feel. It’s a lovely spot for swimming and snorkeling in clear water with plenty of reef fish. Bring your snorkel gear, as there is a nice coral area right offshore. Thanks to its west-facing location, this is also a pleasant place to enjoy the late afternoon sun and colorful Caribbean skies.
Just so you know
No indoor dining table – There is no separate dining table inside, but outside you can enjoy relaxed meals in the Caribbean open air.
No dryer – There is no tumble dryer, but laundry usually dries quickly in the warmth and breeze.
No A/C in the living room – The living room has no air conditioning, but with the trade winds and open doors it stays comfortable.

The neighborhood
South of the center and towards the salt pans lies one of Bonaire’s best-known residential and vacation areas, traditionally linked to Harry Belafonte. Belnem has grown into an umbrella name for upscale sub-neighborhoods like La Palma, Sabalpalm, Lima, Punt Vierkant and Playa Esmeralda. Here you are close to popular south-coast beaches such as Bachelor’s Beach and iconic dive sites, ideal for sunsets and relaxed beach life. It’s a quiet residential area with quick routes to the airport and downtown Kralendijk.
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 Windsock Turtle. 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.

Would absolutely stay here again
We had a wonderful stay. Saw iguanas and prikichi birds every single day. The open layout is beautiful and spacious and the place had everything we needed. We would absolutely stay here again. It is central to everything and beaches are walkable.

Thank you for a great stay
Our stay at Windsock was incredible. The walking path to our place was the best part of the entry and exit each day. Easy to access and great location across from snorkeling, beach club and down the street from the road leading to Lac Bay. The inside was wonderful and comfortable. The best kitchen set up we have had with an AirBNB. The balcony was our favorite spot to relax. Thank you for a great stay and we hope to visit again next year.

WS Turtle great place
Great place to stay, clean and nice beds. The host was very responsive, walkable from restaurants and Bachelors beach. The only thing we didn’t like was the pool, it matched the photos and description but with two young daughters it just wasn’t big enough and we couldn’t see the pool from our apartment, for that reason we won’t stay here again.

Nice place
Nice place, a little further away from everything so car is desirable. Which we had so no problem. Spacious and clean apartment. Near a great beach with very fine sand and very nice snorkeling. By car less than 5 minutes. ( opposite airport) the only downside to everything was the well too small pool. You can not swim. Bit of dipping. We hardly use it but sometimes in between to cool off very small. Otherwise everything absolutely top and satisfactory. Quick response to questions.

Amenities were good, very complete
The four of us stayed on the island for two weeks. The reception was good, someone was waiting for us with an explanation of the apartment. There was always space in the parking lot. Almost exclusively sat on the balcony which was very nice. Kitchen and amenities were good, very complete. In the two bedrooms the air conditioning worked well, was good to keep cool. Only downside was that there was a clog in the master bathroom, which took a little longer than desired to act on. Definitely recommended to spend a few weeks on Bonaire!

Delightful luxury apartment
Delightfully luxurious apartment with everything available for self-catering. Beds were big and laid out. Nice parking on site.
Also a nice barbecue place and outdoor table to eat.
Luuk's quick response to questions, top of the line.
Swimming pool was sometimes a bit dirty of the goats that also walk around there (drool).

Dushi Windsock Turtle.
Lovely spacious apartment on the wind with a large terrace and a little sea view. Super clean and tastefully decorated. Everything was there so we did not have to go straight to the supermarket. Very thoughtful and attention to details. We felt immediately at home. We were joined by the little singing bird we call Birdy who lives very close by. Looking forward to the next time @Windsock Turltle. Masha Danki !
