The central location and great price at Hausmann Follies Apartment were ideal. Franky was very easy to communicate with the few times we had to. Loved the outdoor space.
This was my second time staying here and won't be the last. Franky is great, check in couldn't be easier. Super convenient location, walking distance from tons of shops and restaurants. Thanks again for another wonderful stay!
From before we arrived, the host was accessible. They checked in with us to ensure all was in order (better layout, location, and amenities than posted).
The 13 pictures of the property does not do justice to the actual property. I highly recommend that you take new photos. The bedrooms are much more spacious than they appear in the photos and there is plenty of storage space that is not captured. There are no photos of the bathrooms which made me wonder what they were going to be like. I was pleasantly surprised. They were both big beautiful bathrooms with lots of space. The size of the patio is also not captured in your photos. It was an excellent stay with a great host.
As indicated in the ratings, this is an excellent rental property. We especially enjoyed our interactions with our host Franky Gosal. Hope to stay here again when we return to Bonaire.
We came for a dive trip. They were super responsive. It’s close to the City Center. Short walk to the water for a good dive. 10 minutes from all the south dives like Salt Pier. Pool was great and had a good hose to wash gear. Would definitely stay again.
Enjoyed our stay there. Very comfortable and within walking distance to restaurants and shopping. The pool was down for repairs but the manager messaged me and let me know and offered to cancel free of charge. We don’t really use the pool so we were okay with it. Would definitely stay again !!
The place was great - walking distance to great restaurants and shops. Franky - the owner - was very responsive and just a nice man. We enjoyed our stay very much and will stay here again every time we head to Bonaire. Beds were comfy, AC worked great. Was a great home base for diving. My family had an awesome time. Thanks Franky!!!

Hi Sean, good to have you and your family enjoy your stay and had your vitamine B (Bonaire). For me and my team it means a mission accomplished and looking forward to serve you in the near future again. Thank you!
We just completed a 2-week stay in Bonaire, both weeks at this property. The unit is spacious and contained everything we needed. It is very clean and included twice-weekly cleanings at no additional cost. Franky is a wonderful host who checked in with us several times to make sure everything was working properly. The unit is in a good location, very close to downtown shops and numerous restaurants. We were pleased with our stay and would use this property again should we return to Bonaire.

Brad thank you very much for your review. I was glad having you both. So good to hear that you get where you came for. Hope to see you soon to our Island!
Very nice apartment at Great location in Kralendijk
We had to book a last minute apartment due to an issue with another place. Franky responded right away and we were able to change locations without any hinder. He is one of the best hosts we have encountered. The apartment has very good size bedrooms & bathrooms. Kitchen is well equipped, internet works fine. Location is close to Kralendijk and ChaChaCha Beach, which is nice for both activities or just relaxing by the pool. We enjoyed our stay very much and recommend it for your stay in Bonaire.
Franky is a great host, and the apartment at an excellent quality/price value, in our favorite neighborhood for our Bonaire Vacations. Two separate (minor) issues out of Franky's control came up and he came and resolved them in incredibly short time. He is very pleasant and accommodating. Frankie waited for our arrival even though our landing was delayed and personally went through all we needed to know. Also, he personally came to see us before departure and to talk about our stay. We would certainly stay here again.

Hi Cristian, thank you so much for your review and Im so glad that you had a pleasant time in the appartement. We hope to serve you again in the near future. Also greatings to your wife and daughter
Kind regards
Franky
Very clean, excellent location, good communication
The unit was spotless. The beds were large and comfortable. The location is within walking distance to the main street with restaurants and shops. The host was quick to respond via WhatsApp. He was even able to unlock the door remotely when I locked myself out.
There was a dishwasher but no detergent, and we would have appreciated a small stock of basic spices--salt and pepper.
For future guests, not the owner's fault, but cellphone data was not available, so navigating to the property the first time was a little challenging since we didn't know the island and hadn't looked carefully at the map that Franky sent beforehand.
This is a very nice apartment. We will stay here again when we come back.

Thank you for your reviews, we should had place detergent for the dishwasher. We also use your feedback to improve services like getting to the appartement and salt and pepper.
We appreciate you to your feedback
Regards Franky
Prima verblijf, flexibele gastheer, servicegericht. Paar minuten loopafstand van centrum Kralendijk. Straat is soms wat lawaaiig, maar ‘s nachts erg rustig
Alles war sehr zufriedenstellend und Frankie ist der beste host, den wir je hatten.
Das Appartement ist groß geräumig und ansprechend. Die Küche mit sehr viel Platz ausgestattet und gut bestückt.
Die Terrasse ist gemütlich, umgeben von einem tropischen Garten mit sehr viel privacy.
Frankie ist sehr freundlich und ausgesprochen hilfsbereit. Ein Wunsch und schon war er zur Stelle.
Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen, würden jederzeit wiederkommen und können die Ferienwohnung nur empfehlen
Herzlichen Dank Frankie🙏🙏🙏

Franky
Frankie was a perfect host with great communication throughout the stay . Our flight even got delayed and he made arrangements to let us stay two hours past check out time (which is huge!). The apartment is literally across the street from the ocean. The apartment is clean and has everything you need. Will definitely stay next time I come to Bonaire (which is the best island in the Caribbean)

Jay, thank you for your review and we're so glad you enjoy your stay! For me is a mission accomplished! We try harder even in this crazy times and be happy to have you and your kind friends again!
We arrived in Bonaire without having received any communication beforehand from the owner regarding checkin. We went to a nearby restaurant after going to the property and not being able to get through the access gate (very secure) and we soon received a text from Franky about what time and where to meet. The unit was very clean and on the first floor of the building was as pictured. The kitchen had the basics, but no larger baking dishes or larger cooking pots. I wasn't able to make meals such as lasagne, spaghetti, soups, etc, that were large enough to have leftovers. There were lots of great restaurants that were within walking distance as well as the shops and markets. We were forced to used the air conditioning most of the time we were in the condo because the window screens, if present, either did not fit the window properly, or had gaps where mosquitos could get in. The sliding door leading to the veranda was the worst, so we seldom used that area. Unfortunately, we were there at a time when the mosquitos were voracious. Franky was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had, and seemed like he had plans in place to address the issues we had. Unfortunately, he had a family emergency while we were there, but his assistant, Rick, was very helpful and answered any questions while Franky was gone. Chia, the housekeeper, made sure the apartment was spotless and came two times a week. If you are a diver, there is a Dive Friends shop very close to the unit with rinse tanks and anything else you might need. Franky provided a tub for us to use to carry our gear back and forth, which was very helpful. The complex was very secure and we felt very safe there.
Heerlijk 3 weken in Flat Playa gehad. We komen al bijna 10 jaar in Kralendijk maar hebben nog nooit in dit complex mogen verblijven. In één woord geweldig.
Franky Gosal is een fantastische gastheer. Appartement is heel compleet met volledig ingerichte keuken, wasmachine en smart TV. Hoop volgend jaar weer te kunnen boeken.
We work hard for 5* this is the first time in 3 years we have one star less. We try to adapt to all guest wishes. in this case guest didn't want all services for discount. We don't feel comfortable with this. For us lessons lean, from now on we only serve with all service for one price.
