About this property

Enjoy Bonaire while staying in this beautiful and fully furnished 3 bedroom villa.

Seeing, feeling and experiencing Bonaire and the Caribbean climate and nature, that is what Kas Kris offers. Once the sliding doors open, inside and outside become one beautiful large living area. Kitchen and living room, large porch, terrace and pool are all connected.

What does that mean in practice? Well, try to imagine yourself:

You just woke up, walk from the bedroom to the kitchen and tell your travel companion, who is making coffee, that you want a cup too. You continue walking across the porch, toward the pool terrace.

You walk down the stairs, slowly into the pool, and calmly swim to the other side. You sit down for a moment on the bench at the end of the pool. You look around and see very closely the birds in the trees; they are bright yellow! And orange! And green! Trupials, parakeets and parrots, and now you hear the parakeets twittering too! What are they talking about? Oh, and look, an iguana in the garden! And another one! And if you sit quietly watching, a beautiful green or red hummingbird is sure to come and have a snack on the little flowers.

When you're done looking you swim back. You see the house, the porch and the dining table. Your other travel companions, drinking their coffee on the large lounge sofa, cheerfully wish you good morning.

When you have finished looking you swim back. You see the house, the porch and the dining table. Your other travel companions, drinking their coffee on the large lounge sofa, cheerfully wish you good morning.

Once you're out of the pool you let the sun and wind dry you off a bit, grab your hamam towel and saunter over to the cabana. That's where you'll drink your coffee.

And this is just the beginning of the day!

This villa is very private, green and quiet. It is located at the end of a cul-de-sac on a hill with a beautiful view. It is also only a 10 minute drive from Flamingo Airport, restaurants Kralendijk and many dive sites. The best of both worlds, right?

Well, what more can I say? Check out further information on this site.

Come and experience Bonaire! Visit once and I guarantee you will come back.

Enjoy,

greeting,
Kris

A Wonderful Stay!

A lovely stay in a more local area of Bonaire. The house has a spacious covered deck where we sat, when we were home, throughout our stay. The plants surrounding the house provide a wonderful seclusion from the neighbors and we spent lots of time reading in the hammock, swimming in the pool and chilling poolside. The style of the house is modern and we loved the additional Fatboy lighting. The house also has its own parking space in front of the door which is nice so you don't have to worry about whether you can park your car or scooter. We stayed on Bonaire for two weeks in two different homes. The communication with Krista was great as was the reception by Nathalie. She allowed us to drop off our luggage early so we could enjoy the day before checking in. We had a few small incidents occur during our stay and these were resolved immediately and professionally. Being more local, there are dogs in the neighborhood whom you mostly hear, not see. Overall we had a wonderful stay and highly recommend this vacation home!

Loved it the first time, came back for a second time

And will be back for sure again. This is very nice property off the main road and well situated on the island. The place is immaculate and it has very open style. As you can imagine, we enjoyed the refreshing pool quite a few times. All the necessary conveniences are there (dishwasher, oven/microwave, washing machine, etc..). Some very nice touches (e.g., mosquito netting around the beds, easy air conditioner to help you sleep better at night) make the place that much better. We stayed for three weeks and we could have easily stayed for three more weeks! The best part of the property are the many birds (parrots!) and lizards (iguana and regular small lizards) that roam around nearby, making you truly feel like you've escaped to a warm country! Also kudos to Nathalie the local property manager for taking care of us! She does a great job!

Great Spot to Relax and Unwind

Kas Kris was in deal for this trip to Bonaire. It was comfortable and had the privacy I wanted. Good dive sinks and cabinet to hang dive gear. Nathalie the property manager was superb and even stopped in to make sure all was ok. Thank you for a great vacation

Relaxation at its finest

I have nothing bad to say about the Kas Kris Villa. It’s a very comfortable, convenient, relaxing, and private space that entices you to stay. Our only quarrel was we found it hard to leave the villa during the day due to it being so inviting, haha. Krista and Nathalie were extremely helpful with any needs, and made checking in and out a breeze. We would not hesitate to stay the Kas Kris Villa again, and were very pleased.

Excellent place to stay, but …

Kas Kris is excellent overall. There are some wonderful features: very quiet, total privacy, the pool. The location, kitchen and furnishings are all good. Nathalie was very helpful. But … two problems: The driveway is seriously in need of repair (don’t try it without a 4-wheel drive vehicle). And the mosquitos and flies were really annoying in the house. The mosquito nets on the beds help, but the problem is the doors. If you leave them closed, that keeps the insects out but makes the house too warm. If you open the doors, you get a good breeze and a lot of nasty insects. The obvious solution is screen doors. I don’t know why the owner doesn’t address these problems. Still, Kas Kris is still an excellent place to stay on Bonaire.

About the host

Hosted by Krista Tesselaar

My name is Krista, I designed this house myself and I have thought about literally everything you can see and find in this house; from the huge blackboard in the kitchen to the hamam towels, from FatBoy charging station to placement of electricity points, from windows to wardrobes, from light switches to septic tank, from toilets to towels.

I am very happy with the result. Come and see yourself!

best, Krista

Why they chose this property

I have been to Bonaire a few times, and I love the laid back attitude of Bonaireans, and the visitors of Bonaire. No hurry, no stress. Just be and enjoy...take it easy.
Besides this, Bonaire also offers great nature of course, both above and under water.
So I decided I wanted to be part of this. Kas Kris is the result...

What makes this property unique

Kas Kris is very private situated and offers you rest and relaxation. When around the house, you will mostly see the sea and nature. Even while cooking a meal in the kitchen, you will be looking over the pool to the sea and Klein Bonaire! On the other hand, you are close by diving spots, the airport and Kralendijk with its restaurants. All just a 10-minute drive away.
