I suggest to everyone e mailing Bonaire that they send all mail with a return receipt, otherwise you have no idea if they got your mail. Yes, e mail does go missing sometimes on it's way to the island.
You might also alter your phone bill for one month to include international calling, and call them up some morning.

My experience with SunRentals was most positive last year. Began working with them in March to book a pool villa (Casa Terrazza) for the first week of December. They apparently had some staff turnover during that period leading up to December, because I was handed off to 2 or 3 different agents over that time period, but had absolutely no problem due to the transitions. The last person I worked with, and the woman who met me at the airport and directed me to the house, is named Josie. She was excellent. Sorry you are experiencing difficulty, but my experience with them before-trip, during-trip, and post-trip was nothing but positive. You might actually invest a couple of bucks and telephone them -- ask for Josie. She knows what she is doing!

Randy, don't have any experience with SunRentals but have used Bonaire Partners several times as have several friends. First class operations all the way around..always there for you and generally get back to you within two hours even on holidays. Any time we needed them while in Bonaire, night or day, they are quick to respond. I would suggest you give them a shoot and see what you think. www.bonairepartners.com.

Hi Randy,
We have used Sunrentals three times and have been very pleased with their service. Josie and Maus own the company and have always been very helpful. I feel very comfortable recommending them.
We also had to wait a while for a response from an owner on one occasion, (they couldn't decide whether to use the place themselves or not!) so rather than delay our decision further, Josie helped us chose a different villa to suit our family.
I would suggest contacting Josie and explaining the situation regarding the flights. Maybe she can help you do the same.
Hope this helps,
Jill

We rented Casa Cia from Sunrentals last month and have only good things to say about them. Everyone there was most helpful. Have you called their toll free number? Sometimes it is more helpful to talk to someone than rely on e-mail only.
Hope it turns out well
Judy

Just returned from a week renting the Casa Blue Note (Belnem) from Sunrentals. Everything went very smoothly. We had a problem with one of the airconditioners and they had someone there to replace it with a new one the same day. Excellent service.

We rented an apartment through Sun Rentals in February, and I can't say enough good things about them. They always responded very quickly to our emails, and while on island were happy to very quickly solve any problem we had. However - the apartments are more directly under their control than the houses might be.
