The on-site parking area is also at your disposal. To warmly welcome our guests and to explain everything about the accommodation and our beautiful island, we personally host all arrivals. The Sunwise hosts of the property will arrange your check-in time with you.
The Neighborhood:
South of the center and heading toward the salt pans, Belnem is 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 such as La Palma, Sabalpalm, Lima, Punt Vierkant and Playa Esmeralda. Here you are close to popular south coast beaches (like 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.
Windsock Manta Ray is approximately 1.3 kilometers from Good and More supermarket, 1.3 kilometers from Dive Friends Port Bonaire dive center, 500 meters from Te Amo Beach and Donkey Beach, 4.2 kilometers from the center of Kralendijk and 1.7 kilometers from Brass Boer restaurant.
Sunwise insider tip: From Windsock Manta Ray, you can walk straight to Bachelor's Beach, a popular beach on the southern edge of Kralendijk. This narrow sandy beach lies at the foot of a low cliff and is known for its clear blue water. It is a popular spot to relax and snorkel along the coastline. Bring your snorkel gear, as you can often spot colorful reef fish in the shallow water. Feel free to linger a little longer: the sunsets along this stretch of coast are often spectacular.
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 Manta Ray. 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.
Other Things to Note:
Check-in to Windsock Manta Ray is from 3:00 PM and check-out is until 10:00 AM. Early arrival or late departure may be possible on request, depending on other reservations. Smoking and pets are not allowed in our accommodations, and we kindly ask you to keep noise down at night. Enjoy your stay at Windsock Manta Ray!
