Exclusive and intimate, warm and alive - Ocean View Villas is John and Tim's little corner of paradise on the arid and pristine island of Bonaire in the Southern Caribbean….a favorite destination for scuba diving and snorkeling!

As your hosts, John and Tim pay personal attention to every detail. Tastefully furnished in pickled oak with pastel accents, each apartment has secluded, intimate rear patios for outdoor showers, private sunbathing or relaxing with a cool drink amid tropical flowering plants. Kitchens are fully equipped with refrigerator, stove, microwave, glassware, stoneware dishes and all the conveniences of home. Although each apartment is air-conditioned, guests usually prefer the refreshing coolness of the trade winds.

After having morning coffee on your private patio, pack up your diving and snorkeling gear for a trip to nearby Pink Beach, or even closer, the wreck of the Hilma Hooker. Invigorated by your dive, stop by the seaside markets in town for a basket full of the freshest fruits and vegetables and fish. Have a nice lunch in your apartment and then take a siesta (everyone else does from 12 noon to 2 p.m.) Upon waking, drive or bicycle south to the salt ponds where Bonaire's flamingos nest, walk to Bachelors' Beach or visit one of the historic sites on the north end of the island. At the end of the day, you may want to sit in the courtyard and swap fish tales with the other guests or enjoy a sunset drink. Or you may do nothing. It's your vacation.
