We love the location of the sand dollar resort. This unit was up to date and very well decorated. We will be back. For divers, the onsite dive shop and pier are a perfect way to easily access the Bari Reef site.
My husband and I loved staying in the Modern Waterfront Studio. It is in a great location between downtown Kralendijk and the northwest dive sites. The condo was very clean and recently renovated. Housekeeping was (pleasantly unexpectedly) provided. We plan to visit Bonaire in the near future and would like stay here again.
We have frequented the Sand Dollar in years past in a larger 3 bedroom with the extended family, but this time it was just the two of us so we opted for the studio. The unit was well equipped and had nearly everything we needed with a lovely screened in porch and air conditioning. Just walk out and snorkel, swapping out swim towels as needed. So as not to wake my sleeping spouse, I got smart and would set up the coffee pot the night before and would sneak out onto the back porch to watch the lizards and hummingbirds and plan the snorkel spots. I recommend bringing hangers, a hair dryer, soap/shampoo/conditioner, and an insulated lunch/grocery bag. Enjoy!
We stayed in this studio for 8 days and the location was great. There are several nice restaurants within a few minutes of walking. You can go swimming or snorkelling right outside this place and see amazing fish. The area is very quiet and we found Bonaire extremely safe. We found a group that played pickleball at this resort. Other than a few minor items with the studio everything was great. There is no washing machine in the studio and none on site available to use. You would have to go find a laundromat somewhere. Plus the stove took some getting use to. And there seems to be a little bit of a smell in the washroom ( might have to check for a sewer leak) but any other issues we had were quickly resolved by the staff who were helpful.
We were surprised at how very inviting and comfirtable this studio apartment was. The layout was perfect for us. Anything we needed we contacted the manger and it was taken care of right away.
I did not give it a 5 star accuracy because the apartment description said there was a washer and that was not the case.
All in all it was perfect for our month stay.
Owner is great, property management is friendly and easy to work with, and the unit is excellent. Will definitely be staying here again. Hopefully soon!
Wonderful Property. Owner is fantastic. Property staff friendly and efficient.
My wife and I have stayed at this property several time. It is very comfortable and well kept. The property location is my absolute favorite on the island. After a long day of diving, sitting at the wall with the friendly guest and owners makes the stay feel like home. Staff is always curious and helpful! The owner is a fantastic gentleman!
Great Location, Wonderful unit, and Friendly owner!
This was our second stay in this unit. I definitely recommend. The unit has been totally refurbished and is in very good condition. The location (Sand Dollar) is fantastic. Will be staying here again!
We enjoyed the warmth and treasured natural surroundings of this place on the globe. We had all we needed for a relaxing and comfortable stay. May we all strive to preserve this natural beauty for generations to come.
Love the Sand Dollar Property and this unit is very well done!
First, the Sand Dollar location is fantastic! Great on site dive shop, very friendly staff, great space to just enjoy the sun and sunsets during the week. The Unit itself is very well refurbished. This is by far the nicest Sand Dollar unit we have stayed in and we had no problems while there. Would definitely recommend and will try to stay here again if we just need a studio.
