This villa is a wonderful place for a family vacation to Bonaire. Beautiful views with parking just out front for daily adventures. Diving and snorkeling just out the front door and the dive shop is just a few doors away. We will definitely stay in this villa again.

We had a great vacation to Bonaire and Villa Trepanier was the perfect place to stay! Location was excellent for diving, walking to town, swimming out front. We loved the porch and spent most of the time people watching and enjoying the weather. Edithe, the property owner and Mariska the manager were both nice and helpful. I would highly recommend this property!

We absolutely loved our two-week stay in Villa Trepanier! If you have a family of four, it's a terrific size. My wife and I had our own bedroom, and each of our kids did, as well, which made life nice for the extended trip ;) The location is excellent! It's right on the main waterfront street where you can easily walk down to the restaurants and shops. We did this most nights after 6 or so when the breeze kicks in and makes it a very pleasant stroll :) You can literally just walk across the little street, and dive or snorkel and see tons of fish which we did, as well. Pierre, the property manager, was very responsive, and did a terrific job throughout our stay! Edithe, the owner, also is excellent with communication, and making sure your stay goes smoothly! I highly recommend this property!!!

Excellent stay, excellent location we had a perfect trip, the villa was above expectation and on the ocean. the communication with the owner prior to arrival and with the manager Pierre upon arrival,was an easy and friendly process. A great experience from day one.This villa is very zen, large and well design. We where 4 in our party so the extra room was used for storage, new tv’s where added. Airco in all bedrooms and living space. We are coming back to this villa next year!

Nestled on the serene shores of Bonaire near its picturesque town (walking distance), this property stands out as a true oasis of tranquility and beauty. The first thing that strikes you is the breathtaking ocean view of the crystal-clear turquoise waters. The accomodations themselves are nothing short of spectacular, where every detail has been carefully curated to ensure maximum comfort. Plush furnishings, modern amenities, and thoughtful touches abound, creating a welcoming retreat that feels like a home away from home. The level of service provided by the staff is remarkable, whether it's arranging for a private snorkeling excursion, or simply offering recommendations for things to see and do. This property is nothing short of extraordinary. Truly a slice of paradise.

Villa Trepanier was a great place for our visit. Daniel and Janny were an excellent welcoming pair and very responsive to any concerns and questions. They arranged for transportation to and from the airport. The kitchen had everything we needed. The place was clean and well maintained. Only one thing and it is just my personal preference - the bedrooms did not have Windows that opened so you had to sleep in the air conditioning. Again - just my personal preferencw to sleep with fresh air

So much good to say: the communication with the owner was efficient, cordial & quick. The villa is very well located and close to everything. We got a 10% discount at dive friends yellow sub next door, very convenient for part of our group of divers. The others in our family were very pleased with the snorkling just in front. There was a king size bed in the master bedroom and a new smart TV in the main large living room plus 2 other TV in the 2 large bedrooms, a new patio set too, something that got added before we arrived. The welcome basket and all the spices, oil, coffee etc.. and well stocked kitchen, is very apprreciated when you arrive from a long trip. This house is definitly very confortable, convenient, large and the manager Pierre, is always ready to help if need be. We will return to this beautiful villa, as this is the best one we found on Bonaire.

The VRBO is in a great location, right across from the water, near a dive shop, and in walking distance to the restaurants and downtown. The outside area to clean dive equipment and the locked storage area to hang dry the equipment was awesome. The sitting area and dining table were an excellent place for us to hang out and play games. The kitchen is well appointed with plenty of dishes and other necessities. Pierre (the property manager) was extremely helpful, met us to check in after we landed, and provided really useful information about completing forms in advance of arrival. The only negatives are - the second bedroom lighting was minimal and it was difficult to see in the evening/night in that room. We were surprised that there is a charge for power (over a certain amount), but we did not exceed it during our stay as we ensured that the a/c was off when we left the apartment each day. Overall, the apartment was very nice and we would stay again if we go back to Bonaire.

This property is amazing. Fabulous location within walking distance to many restaurants and all the shopping downtown, next door to Dive Friends (for those that dive), rinse tanks and a place to hang dive gear, outdoor shower, AC throughout the villa, amazing view out the front windows. Light and bright living area, with plenty of space for 7 people, comfortable beds. This place checked all the boxes for our group and the property manager is very responsive and helpful. The villa is even better in person than the photographs. As we are cat people, we even loved the friendly cat that visits on a regular basis. He is apparently a regular (and of course we fed him with the canned cat food the previous visitors left and bought more to replace it). Could not ask for a better place to stay in Bonaire. The consensus was unanimous, this villa will be our choice for our annual trip to Bonaire.

This is our 6th trip to Bonaire. My husband & I took 2 new divers with us & we needed a bigger place than our normal rental. I chose this unit based on size & location. Overall, it was fine. The unit was clean, open & bright. It is on ocean front & a 15-min walk to town. All appliances worked & there were plenty of pots, pans, dishes, condiments, etc. Furniture was fine & TVs/internet worked. VRBO description says “washer & dryer” but there was no dryer. Easy walk to Yellow Submarine dive site. However, I was disappointed to be told on arrival that we were limited to a certain power. I understand conserving energy & had there been a request when we arrived, or signage in the unit, asking us to conserve energy we would've complied. But we were told we had to use "less than 300" per the meter or get charged extra (after already paying a lot for this rental for a week). Sadly, I developed an ear infection & couldn't dive the 2nd half of the week, so I was in the unit much of the day while the rest of my party was out diving. We came in just under 300 - but we were militant about turning off the AC & lights. I often sat in the heat while the other divers were away. It took away from our fun.Also, though we liked being able to walk to town, we didn’t like being on the main street with so much traffic & noise. The gardens were beautiful, but we couldn’t see the ocean or sunset from the unit & had to cross the street & sit on the wall, which wasn’t super relaxing.

As divers we look for ocean front property with direct access to great shore diving site's, this fit our needs nicely. The living area is open and spacious with plenty of light and room enough for 4-6 guests to have their own space. There are two large tables in the living area which allowed for separate photo work table setup and dining, perfect! Two of the bedrooms are nicely appointed. While the 3rd bedroom is a little small it would work nicely for children. The kitchen has a good selection of dishes, utensils, pots and pans to cook for 4-6 people. The property is situated right along the water front for enjoying beautiful sunsets. While the one way road runs between property and ocean traffic is limited in this area and noise was not a problem during the day or night. It’s also centrally located with an easy walk to nice restaurants or grocery shopping not far away. Try the food truck just south for local breakfast or enjoy fresh fish from the local, just caught, fish monger Raymond (what a treat!!!) Minor drawbacks were outside setup for dive gear storage and drying were not optimal but with a little creativity (moving drying racks out front where it’s breezy and sunny) we made everything work. I would recommend this property and stay here again

We just spent 12 days at Villa Trepanier, and highly recommend this property. We found the location superb - on the water, close (enough) to the center of town and the nicest restaurants, without giving up our sense of privacy. The Trepaniers were very responsive to our requests upon arrival, which was nice. The Trepaniers have just updated the descriptions for this listing and they are much more accurate and informative than earlier. Everything is as described here. We did not use the underground parking. We did park in front of the house and were fine. The bedrooms and beds are very comfortable - and a true queen-sized bed in each room. The living room space is very airy and open. Several tables are scattered throughout the open space, which we found very handy. The lighting was very comfortable as well, completely adjustable, great for evening book-reading and relaxing. The kitchen is nice, although we did wish for more cooking implements. We try to buy local fish and cook in wherever we go, and we had only one skillet and a couple pans to work with. Maybe next time. The house is indeed a one minute walk away from the best dive shop in town - The Yellow Submarine. We were there every day and they treated us like old friends. On a side note - do yourself a favor and dine at "It Rains Fishes." the restaurant is located a nice walk down the waterfront, and the food was superb - by far the best we ate in Bonaire. Would we go back to Villa Trepanier - absolutely! As a matter of fact you better make a reservation now, or we're going to book the very week you want! Seriously, we have rented vacation properties everywhere, and this ranks as one of the best we've come across. We'll be back. Hold our spot.

Lots of living space. Easy walk to down town. Nice to be very close to Yellow Submarine if you are a diver. Ad says there is a 10% discount coupon for YS but we never got one. The pictures show the out door furniture with different covers on the chairs so you might think there is more furniture out front than there is. And one chair is missing that is in the pictures. There were some issues with items like AC but were quickly attended to. The snorkeling our front just across the street is very nice.

One diver and 5 snorkelers. Great location, right next to yellow submarine dive shop. The diver did shore dives every day on the reef in front of the property. A short 10 minute walk to town meant that we all walked to dinner most nights. Easy parking and easy access to other activities (boat rental just 3 min drive away for eg). Highly recommend!

Walking distance to town, several shore dives, a great dive shop, and with an amazing view of Klein Bonaire, the Villa offers comfortable accommodations with a great kitchen and patio, comfy sofa, and room to spread out for an extended stay on beautiful Bonaire. The house managers - Tina & Jason - are beyond hospitable with tips and insights that help first time visitors quickly get the hang of the island’s quirks. Truly loved this stay!!

Great experience staying at the villa. The place is spacious with large rooms and a large living room. Beautiful view from inside and outside the villa, ocean front, in a quiet neighborhood. Walking distance from the center of the city, shops, restaurants and bars. For those enjoying scuba diving, the Dive Friends Yellow Submarine is just next door.
