Two happy divers

Ingrid and Marcel did a wonderful job of communicating with us, providing excellent accommodations and service. The property exceeded our expectations. Sabal Palm is safe, quiet, very close to prime diving locations and the airport. Thank you so much for a lovely visit to Bonaire.

wunderschönes sauberes Gästehaus mit Wohlfühlterrasse

Wir waren das erste Mal auf Bonaire und sowohl von der Insel als auch von unserer Unterkunft total begeistert. In dem Appartment hat es uns an nichts gefehlt. Durch die wunderbaren Mückennetze in den Fenstern mussten wir uns nicht vor den Mücken schützen. Das dazugehörige Auto war genau auf die anspruchsvollen Wege auf der Insel ausgerichtet. Alles Top !!

This is a really cute cottage!

We stayed here for a week, and loved this cottage. This cottage is in a great location, and close to a lot of our favorite dive sites. We always use Dive Friends, and this is located to three of their locations. The kitchen is well equipped, and we grilled every night. We usually have a group when we go to Bonaire, but this year we decided just the two of us were going. We will definitely stay there again!

Diver's Paradise Bonaire, at the cozy and delightful Sabal Palm Villa

We had a wonderful visit to Bonaire, staying at the Sabal Palm Guesthouse. The villa is like-new, sparkling clean, and fully equipped. The location is ideal, quiet but near everything, with a bonus of friendly neighbors (and we don't mean the wild donkeys). Warehouse and Van Der Tweel markets were very close and fully stocked with whatever we needed. Nearby "downtown" had lots of dining and shopping options for such a small island. Colorful birds came every day to greet us and sing on the patio. Fantastic snorkeling was virtually within walking distance at Windsock. There was plenty of great snorkeling with a lot of live coral and aquatic variety in more places than we could visit in 8 days - the Water Taxi and 4 hours underwater spent at Klein Bonaire island were definitely a highlight. The patio had plenty of room to hang up our suits, vests, rash guards and gear after each day's outings. A very nice 4WD suv was available at the property for rental that made the most rugged parts of the island accessible. Our hosts were helpful for questions about the unit and also local points of interest. The kitchen was well-supplied, and the bedroom AC made sleeping comfortable in the tropical climate. There was plenty of bedding and towels provided. We had our own Weber grill right on the patio for delicious grilling. The living room TV was great with a lot of news and programming, and as a monitor to play our GoPro videos and NetFlix movies. Plenty of cross-ventilation and powerful ceiling fans kept the rooms breezy and comfortable by day. We were fortunate to meet both the property owners and also the caretakers nearby - perhaps the best part of our stay was getting to know them and sharing a bit of their Dutch culture. After all, aren't the best visits when you come as as guests, and leave as friends? It was tough to leave this paradise. Anyone wishing to visit Bonaire for a diving or snorkeling - experience of a lifetime - can find a great "Base Camp" at the Sabal Palm Guesthouse. WE DID!!!

Excellent stay at Sabal Palm

Nice and clean guest house and good rental car. We stayed 3 weeks and enjoyed the quiet place, centrally located but you need a car to go out for diving, shopping etc. Marion and Berry meet you at the airport and make you feel at home immediately. They help you whenever and wherever they can.

Spectacular Guesthouse

My husband and I am coming back to the island for a 2nd time. We rented from Ingrid last time and were so very happy. We decided to rent her guesthouse this time. It was in a great location near North end of island in little community know as Belnam. But only short distance to town. We loved the little subdivision in which it was located. Very safe, quiet and easy to get to. Her guesthouse was a great size for 2-3 people. We had a very spacious bedroom, bath and living kitchen area. We loved having the patio to eat our meals on daily. The beds were very comfortable, the AC worked great in bedroom. She had cable TV which offered channels in both English, Spanish and Dutch, so in late evenings it was nice to relax and watch a movie. The kitchen was great, had a full size fridge, with great freezer space. The kitchen was very equipped for cooking meals. Which we did several meals a day. Nice ceiling fan in living area, for keeping the heat down. Ingrid is such a great host. Her house manager Barry and Marion are so very kind. They were there for any problems we had and were able to get them resolved. They are always so kind to pick us and take us back to airport. We look forward to returning again real soon and will definitely be looking up our friend Ingrid for rentals she might have available. Bonaire is a spectacular place to go for their shore diving, boat diving, and snorkeling. The people are all so very friendly and whole island is fun to explore. We took a boat taxi across to Klein a small island across from Bonaire. It was so beautiful! Very fun day. We used Dive Friends for a diving company. Can't say enough good things about there services, they are excellent. I highly recommend renting from Ingrid as your host.

Aanrader

n Sabal Palm 50 hebben wij alles gevonden wat we zochten voor ons verblijf op Bonaire: een zeer complete, schone en gunstig (maar toch rustig) gelegen appartement/bungalow met een eigen (Weber)-BBQ. De keuken voorziet in alle behoeften en de aanwezige koelbox en stoelen voor het strand zijn veelvuldig gebruikt. Er staat een prima bed en de ventilator in zowel de slaapkamer als woonkamer zijn ideaal (de airco in de slaapkamer hebben wij dan ook niet gebruikt, maar is wel aanwezig). Ingrid en Marcel zijn ook zeer gastvrij en Ingrid reageert altijd heel snel op mails en is zeer behulpzaam. Kortom: een absolute aanrader!

Gewoonweg fantastisch!

Het was gewoon van A tot Z super geregeld! Een geweldig huis met met alles erop en eraan, we misten absoluut niets, gewoonweg fantastisch. Eigenaresse Ingrid reageert snel op vragen en houdt vliegaanbiedingen in de gaten, erg attent. De beheerders zijn ontzettend hulpvaardig en staan meteen voor je klaar, super! Huis en huisraad is met zorg samengesteld en door ons met respect behandeld. Voor de porch elke dag suiker in de cocusnoot gedaan en een verscheidenheid aan vogels passeert de revue, geweldig! Kortom we hebben weer een magisch mooie vakantie gehad!

Lovely and Relaxed; Great Location & Hosts

We came to Bonaire for two weeks of diving and relaxing, looking for a little home away from home. Sabal Palm fit perfectly with that agenda. The guesthouse is beautiful, comfortable, clean, well-maintained, and in a quiet, convenient location, just on the edge of Kralendijk. Ingrid and Marcel were wonderful hosts, helping us get organized before and during the stay, giving us friendly tips, and making sure we were taken care of even when they were not personally on-site. Thank you both so much! We had a super holiday, and would love to come back (and stay longer)!

Heerlijk vakantiegevoel in het gastenverblijf.

Het was ondanks de warmte prima met de ventilator uit te houden in het gastenverblijf. Ook gedurende de nacht de schutters open en ventilator zachtjes aan. Airco is door ons nog nooit gebruikt. Alles was van begin tot eind weer goed geregeld. Een aantal items vervangen o.a. een nieuw oventje, kun je heerlijk broodjes in bakken. Zowel het gastenverblijf als de tuin wordt keurig onderhouden. Als er iets is reageren Ingrid en Marcel altijd snel om antwoord op je vraag/verzoek te geven. Kortom wij komen elk jaar graag weer terug.

Relaxen und geniessen

War April/ Mai im Haupthaus und im Guesthouse und kann es klar weiterempfehlen. Ist alles sehr sauber und sehr vollständig eingerichtet. Beide haben wunderschöne Terrassen zum relaxen. Habe mich sehr wohl gefühlt. Umgang mit der Vermieterin und den dortigen Betreuern auch richtig gut und sie sind sehr hilfsbereit.

Wonderful vacation home at Bonaire

This was our second visit to Ingrid's home at Sabal Palm, Bonaire where we stayed at her guest house. As always the accommodation was clean and provided everything we needed to enjoy a nice vacation. The location is close to Kralendijk where most of the restaurants can be found and provides convenient access to shops, super markets and dive sites. We will definitely visit again!

A home away from home!

This was our second dive vacation on Bonaire. The first time we stayed in a hotel. This vacation we tried a vacation rental (the main house) of Ingrid. We had a wonderful stay in her house. It started with a warm welcome of Barry and Marion. They live just across the street and were very helpful and responsive to our questions about the house. The cleanliness, furniture and detail decoration were above expectations. It’s in a quiet neighborhood and close enough to Bachelor's Beach, Belmar dive shop and the supermarket. For our next vacation on Bonaire we already know where we are going to stay. Thank you Ingrid for providing us a home away from home. Mike & Lindsey

Wij huurden het gastenverblijf van Sabal Palm 50. Het is bijna een villa, zo ruim! Van alle gemakken voorzien, comfortabel ingericht, mooie woonkamer, ruime slaapkamer met goed bed. Lekker terras erbij. Erg veel waar voor je geld! Het gastenverblijf wordt zeer goed onderhouden en de eigenaren zorgen ervoor dat het je aan niets ontbreekt! Wij gaan zeker graag een keer terug !

Beautiful Private House at Sabal Palm Bonaire

Wir waren im Haupthaus untergebracht und können es uneingeschränkt weiter empfehlen. Das Haus ist perfekt aufgeteilt und auch super ausgestattet. Der neue Swimmingpool im Garten ist natürlich für eine kurze Abfrischung ebenfalls super. Weiterhin ist man mit dem gemietenen Jeep in wenigen Minuten in Kralendijk, an der nächsten Tauchbasis, an den schönsten Stränden und auch die Supermärkte sind gleich um die Ecke. Alles in allem eignet sich diese Unterkunft perfekt für einen wunderschönen Tauchurlaub. Ebenfalls möchten wir uns für den tollen Kontakt mit der Vermieterin und den reibungslosen Ablauf bedanken!

Ruime woning, ideale ligging!

Een hele ruime ruime vakantie woning voor deze prijs! In het keukentje is echt alles aanwezig, ruime woonkamer, badkamer en slaapkamer. Ventilator en airco aanwezig, maar er staat ook voldoende wind! Het waait heerlijk door in huis en achter het huis genoeg ruimte om te zitten of te hangen in de hangmat of in het heerlijke zwembad. Een schoon huisje, voldoende privacy en ook qua communicatie goed geregeld. We zijn opgehaald bij flimingo airport en in de koelkast stond een koud welkomstdrankje klaar :) De ligging van het huisje is wat ons betreft ideaal.. op steenworp afstand van Kralendijk, maar ook van Sorobon beach. Een auto heb je toch nodig op het eiland, maar deze locatie was wat ons betreft precies goed. Wij hebben dus niets aan te merken en komen zeker terug!

Heerlijk

Wat een heerlijke villa. Wij zaten in het gedeelte met een privezwembad. We werden op de luchthaven opgewacht door de overbuurvrouw die met onze jeep klaarstond. De ligging is rustig en vlakbij Bachelor beach. De villa heeft een volledig uitgeruste keuken en de wifi is ook prima (voor ons een zeldzaamheid op Bonaire) In overleg met de eigenaar konden we op de dag van vertrek nog de hele dag in de villa blijven om vervolgens door de overbuurvrouw weer naar het vliegveld worden gebracht. We hebben hier ontzettend genoten. Tot volgend jaar!
