AvailableBonaire has the best shore diving in the world.
Bonaire is a small, simple, and quiet island, but the diving really is that good, and not only the diving--windsurfing, kiteboarding, snorkeling, biking, and bird-watching. Sand Dollar Condominium is in the perfect location, and it offers spacious living, not only because of the generous size of its rooms, but also because the outside is a fluid extension of the inside. Such is the genius of its design, its unique and spell-binding orientation towards the sea. The view of the sea and sky is breath-taking, and the breeze from east to west is constant. It flows right through the condo. The on-site amenities (pool, tennis, beach) and on-site dive shop (Dive Friends) make it the best location on the island.
Anytime: no hurricanes.
Island vibes: drive up to your front door and walk right into your home-away-from-home in this rightly-named 'Divers Paradise.' Drop your bags and keep walking through the living and dining rooms, out the sliding glass door, to your screened-in porch that opens onto the Sand Dollar gardens. The beach and the dock are only steps away. When you aren't diving, you can relax in your comfortable, family-friendly condo. The pool and lighted tennis courts are on site and ready for you when you aren't diving, snorkeling, wind-surfing, kite-boarding, hiking, kayaking, bird-watching, caving, or biking. You will be glad to tuck into the king-sized bed in the master bedroom, or one of the twin beds in the guest room, ready to do it all again the next day, when the birds wake you to song and the gentle waves beckon you to the blue! If you dive with Dive Friends, you can take advantage of their five locations for tank drop-offs and pick-ups and rinsing. And ask us how to arrange a guided dive on the east side of the island, where you will see eagle rays and large sea turtles and green morays and schools of large snappers and grunts in all directions!

This condo is perfectly situated for ALL of the things we wanted to do on Bonaire!!! We hit about a dozen snorkel sites on the island and when it was all said & done, none of the reefs were better than Bari Reef right outside the back door. I even liked their house reef better than the drift snorkel we did on Klein Bonaire. The pictures and videos I was able to take here came out great. We were always the only people on the small beach in front of the condominiums. There was never a lack of good food options nearby, but my favorite food ended up being the low cost meat pies at one of the grocery stores! In the condo, we only needed one bedroom, but the bed was very comfortable. There were fans to keep us cool and give me a bit of the white noise I need to sleep. We didn't use the TVs while we were there because who needs TV when you're in paradise!? The kitchen had everything we needed to prep a couple meals a day at home and to help keep the road cooler filled with snacks for our adventures. The open concept between the kitchen, dining and living room is perfect. The front office always had plenty of clean beach towels so we didn't track around sand. But as nice as the accommodations were, the best part was the amazing location. I would highly recommend this condo and the Sand Dollar Condominiums to anyone looking for some snorkel and dive adventure. Thank you for allowing us to share your piece of heaven right here on Earth.
Snorkle right out the front door, good restaurants around the corner. Clean and comfortable unit.
This property checked all the boxes for our needs! The property manager and her staff cheerfully answered all questions and attended to our needs in a timely manner. Our accommodation was immaculate and well appointed to suit our needs and the association with Dive Friends totally made diving a breeze! We rate our entire experience 5 Star! We definitely plan to return next year for a longer stay! The Blands
The pictures and reviews don't do this place justice. The location is stunning, and there is a small beach on the property and a short swim takes you to a small reef (Bari) which has a great assortment of fish and coral. It is easy swim with very little current, you don't need fins- go barefooted since you are less likely to brush against the coral! There is a dive shop right next door. Very nice condo with everything you need for a perfect vacation. The front staff are so sweet and accommodating! I would return if I go back.
Nothing beats the Sand Dollar Condos for location and customer service. This condo had a recently updated kitchen which was great. Beds were clean and comfortable, kitchen had enough equipment to cook basic meals, air conditioning worked very well. Overall a very nice place to stay.
