Friendly, comfortable stay close to town
Kas Hamaka is a friendly, comfortable and easy place to stay. Audrey is welcoming and a great source of info and answers. It's well situated with an easy walk to restaurants and tourist shops. It's nice to be able to jump off the nearby dock for a swim or head down to the little beach area at 'Something Special' for a snorkel.
I liked everything and just hope they rebuild the wharf across from the property soon!

Disappointing and not worth the money
We liked the location. The house itself was nice but it was not secure. The property listing stated "high speed internet", this was untrue and completely false.
Our experience at this property was disappointing due to several issues that could have been avoided with better communication and management.
Upon arrival, the host’s friend checked us in. She spent more than 30 minutes explaining minor details but failed to tell us one of the most important things: how to properly lock the front door. As a result, we left the property twice believing it was secure, only to return and find the doors wide open. This made us feel very unsafe during our stay.
Another major issue was the internet. The listing advertised “high-speed internet,” but we had no usable internet for most of our stay. When I initially reported the problem, my concerns were dismissed. The manager insisted there was no high-speed internet on Bonaire, which is simply not true, and repeatedly said that no other guests had complained, implying there wasn’t actually a problem. It wasn’t until the day before we checked out that she finally contacted the internet provider. They found and fixed a service issue, confirming that there had indeed been a problem all along. Unfortunately, by then it was too late for us to benefit from the repair.
There was also an overcharge on our bill. After I pointed it out and requested a refund, the manager returned the overcharged amount, confirming that the billing had been incorrect.
Overall, the property itself may have potential, but poor communication, inaccurate advertising regarding the internet, and management issues significantly impacted our stay. Overall this was extremely disappointing.

Not fancy, but great location, very friendly & reasonably priced.
We loved the location! It was right across from the Caribbean on a quiet street,. You could snorkel there with your own gear. The day before we left, a guest saw a big stingray or manta ray & a large turtle as she snorkeled. Ask Audrey where to get in. Audrey was very good at communicating both with Booking & WhatsApp. There's only 5 apartments & everyone was so friendly! We had more conversations in 2 days than we had in 5 weeks in Aruba & Curacao. We stayed 2 weeks & didn't rent a car. We took a North & South Island tour, I also went on a snorkeling trip & another to the National Park. I booked through Viator & was picked up right outside our gate as everyone knows where Kas Hamaka is. We had coffee on a dock every morning & walked up to the cruise ships most days. It was great that it had lots of outlets, both 110 & 220. It also had camp chairs, plus a balcony & patio with comfy chairs.
Our apt had cement stairs to the second level, which only had a rail on the inside. The bathroom was on the main level, but the big bedroom was upstairs. It was very roomy, but could have used more storage space for unpacking. The ceiling fans were great, but the only air con was upstairs.
De gezellige ontvangst door Audrey met een duidelijke uitleg van alles. En dan bij binnenkomst het heerlijke appartement met 2 terrassen en prachtige inrichting. Helemaal onze stijl.

The host Joyce was incredibly kind, welcoming and always helpful throughout our stay. Communication was excellent and they genuinely care about their guests. The location is convenient, close to Kralendijk and right by the sea, making it easy to explore the island.
The apartment did not match our expectations based on the photos, which make it appear much brighter and more spacious than it actually is. Inside, it feels quite dark due to the small windows, and the lighting is insufficient, especially in the kitchen.
One of the two bedrooms is very small and lacks ventilation, with the air conditioning unit positioned directly above the bed, making it uncomfortable to sleep. The amenities were also very basic—only hand soap was provided, with no shower gel, shampoo, or similar toiletries.
The kitchen was another downside. There is no air conditioning, no extractor hood, and no light above the cooktop. Cooking quickly becomes very hot, and opening the doors is not a practical solution because mosquitoes immediately come inside.
Although the property is located by the sea, you cannot really swim directly in front of the apartment, as the waterfront is mainly occupied by boats. Based on the photos, we expected easier access to a swimmable area.
Our biggest concern was the value for money. We paid around US$2,100 for seven nights for a family of four, and at that price we expected a higher level of comfort, better amenities, and a brighter place. For a similar price, we could have stayed at a resort with significantly more facilities. While the hospitality and location deserve high praise, we felt the apartment itself was overpriced for what it offers.
