Returning to Bonaire for another dive trip, and thus returning to Bonaire Talk for great information. Can anyone provide a review of this property? It is listed by Sun Rentals, located at EEG Blvd 56. My main concern is whether it is far enough south from the airport so that the jet noise during the night isn't intrusive. Our last trip to Bonaire, we stayed at Casa Cia, EEG Blvd 20, and were dismayed by the jet noise.

The entrance to the water did not thrill me when I looked at the place, but we never stayed there any nights. It certainly is farther from the airport.

Ginny,

I was just on Bonaire and know where this is. Yes, you will hear the jet noise from there.
Some people it doesn't bother, others it does.

Tell me more, this place is on Pams short list for June. It looks like a good deal, three bedroom on the water for $1050 a week. I don't think I would mind a occasional plane, would I? I was curious about the beach and snorkling in that area for a few days while we were just hanging around the house.

It is a good deal, Ray and Pam. IF the house itself is like others along that section of EEG Blvd., it is a very simple, basic home.

Whether the airplanes bother you or not depends on you - the only ones we noticed when staying just up the road at Casa Cia were the huge KLM jumbo jets; they used to have one arriving around 1:00am and then departing around 3:00am. I don't know if that is still the schedule, but when it was, I woke up every night, both times.
