What a great stay in Bonaire at Marji’s Caribbean Court Condo! We have been to Bonaire before, and usually reserve a private home, but it was not available for our travel dates. This was only my second time booking a property through VRBO, so I was a little apprehensive, but Marji made it so easy. She returns emails promptly, is accessible by cell phone while you are on the island, and is eager to help you in any way she can. Just an all-around great person. She is even an expert windsurfer who gives lessons. She had us up on the boards and making turns within an hour!
The condo was just as pictured and described. We usually get a house simply because my husband and I have stressful jobs in which we’re surrounded by people all the time. And, we cook on vacation. We were amazed at just how quiet the condo complex was – very little in & out traffic, we only saw our neighbors a few times (and heard them less), and usually had the saltwater pool to ourselves. The kitchen is fully stocked and had everything we needed for cooking. With the recent opening of the excellent Van den Tweel market, in fact, we found ourselves so overstocked with food that we only ate out twice.
We most enjoyed sitting out on the deck, having coffee in the morning or a glass of wine at night. We saw the otter that has taken up residence there, as well as the rays.
Having airco in the bedroom was a major plus. No sleeping on damp sheets like on other islands we’ve visited. The airco plus the mattress overlays made for very comfortable sleeping arrangements.
Right on-site is the fantastic Div’Ocean dive operation. This is far and away the best dive operation we’ve experienced on the island. Exceptional customer service, fantastic dive masters, and excellent equipment (rental gear and boat).
Highly recommended! Email me for questions
