We just returned from our first trip to Bonaire and would like to thank all the people who have previously contributed to this website. We had a great time.

The villas are with Capt. Don's. I think this guy just bought a couple of them from Capt. Don's. One is really fancy (#14) and one is very nice, but not as fancy. You could e-mail them to find out the chef's number

Jake - Is there anyway to get a menu or to contact him via e-mail - sounds like something we'd like to try while we are in Bonaire in Feb. We'd love to try something new.

I don't believe he has e-mail, and his menu changes every week. He FAXes out his menu each week - just ask for a copy to be FAXed to your hotel when you get here.

Laurie, do you think the chef is Eddie Carillo?
|
By Laurie Kennedy on Sunday, February 3, 2002 - 4:11 pm: |
I am sorry that I do not know his name. He lives on the north side of town near where we were staying. You can email Bonaire Beach Villas (beachvillas@bonairenet.com) and ask them for his name and phone #. The owner's assistant is Maite - she is really nice and I am sure she will help you. Also, not on this subject, but there is an organization in Bonaire that provides volunteers and equipment for local kids to go diving. WannaDive and Capt. Don's supplies the kids with equipment (for free I think). We rented our own equipment and went with them one time because Maite volunteers with this organization. It was alot of fun and seemed like a neat program. I do not know the details, but I liked the fact that these two dive shops did this for the kids.

Josie, it is Eddie and I will put you in touch. If anyone wants to read about him, Bonaire Reporter had a full page article about him and his family. They are a most interesting family and quite an asset to the Bonairean community. Annie...nafl 100! That must have been some cake!
