    It was a great experience to stay at Casa Mantana, a lovely Place decorated with lots of love, close to the city center and easy to reach by car from any destination! Mariët and Tom are amazing people who helped us in any matter possible, with rent a car, with a lift, with equipment, and tips about the island they do call home now. At the entrance it says “you come as a stranger and. leave as a fiend” and this is what we did! Thanks again for everything! We can recommend this place 100%, if there were more than 5 stars, we will give them with no doubt :-)

    As soon as I found Casa Mantana online I knew it would be a great place to stay after reading the amazing reviews. The place certainly lives up to its reputation. The room had ample space and all the necessary amenities, great shower, fridge, Aircon, fan plenty of towels etc. There is also a place to rinse and store dive gear. The room was spotlessly cleaned and it was cleaned and we were given fresh towels/bed linen regularly. The guest house is located very close to town where you can find plenty of restaurants, cafes, dive shops (we'd recommend Dive Friends!) etc. There are also several large supermarkets within a very short walk/drive. You need a car to get around the island and the house is well placed to get to any of the main attractions/dive sites within half an hour maximum. We rented a truck from the car rental round the corner and there was parking out front. Mariët and Ton are great hosts, they are very friendly, the airport pick up and drop off was super helpful, they answered all of our questions and gave us handy tips. We had their breakfast on the last day and we wish we'd had it sooner, it was a real treat, delicious and a very generous portion. Overall, it's clear we would wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Casa Mantana!

    This is the perfect home base. Kitchen to have breakfast before dives. Close to VIP Diving for tank rental. Nice stroll to town and listen to the suggestions they are spot on! Never knew Bonaire was a foodie town. Don't miss happy hour down the street at PureOcean to watch the sunset

    We had wonderful 10 days in Casa Mantana Atlantis studio, it is neatly and comfortably furnished, equipped with everything one could need. The location is perfect: shops, restaurants, beach, city center is all within walking distance and still in a very quiet place. The breakfast was also superb :) Mariët and Ton were very welcoming, kind and helpful hosts, whatever question or problem we had, we got all the information and help :) I warmly recommend the place.

    Dear Mariët, dear Ton Thank you both again for your hospitality. The studio is super furnished and quiet, we liked it very much, we felt comfortable and relaxed extremely well. Your tips for Bonaire were perfect, especially the hidden beach bar. All the best to you both and hope to see you soon. Warm regards, Christian and Rita

    Wonderful guesthouse and amazing hosts, highly recommend! The Atlantis studio is spacious, comfortable, modern, well-equipped and beautifully decorated. Everything was working perfectly and we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The location is great, close to the center of Kralendijk and a number of dive shops, grocery stores, restaurants... What really sets Casa Mantana apart from other places we've stayed at are the hosts. Mariët and Ton gave us a great welcome by picking us up from the airport and providing useful tips over highly appreciated welcome drinks. They were always available to make sure we had everything we needed or just for a nice chat. We had some problems with the pick up truck we booked before coming to Bonaire and the rental company could not provide a replacement. Ton and Mariët saved our diving plans by getting in touch with another rental company they work with and helping us book another pick up truck at a great price. They even drove us around to get the new truck and return the old truck. Mariët and Ton are truly exceptional hosts - very relaxed, pleasant and genuine people, yet really professional and great at what they do. Simply put, this was one of the best stays we ever had!

    We stayed in this lovely place for 5 nights. The room was very clean, bed is comfortable and the and the little terrace is very nice to sit outside and relaxe. We had a pick up and return to the airport. The motto suits: Come as a stranger, leave as a friend! Highly recommended

    I found Casa Mantana via google. The feeling and impression I got when reading the blogs was my main reason to book. After booking this feeling has been confirmed via e-mail contact. A friendly tone of voice and without asking for it, they send information and tips for renting a car or bike. After a long journey it is very nice to have a personal pickup from the airport. And the hosts take time for a cold drink with you and give you all the information you need for a pleasant stay at Bonaire. The studio (I stayed for three weeks in the Lighthouse) is just as beautiful as in the pictures. In the kitchen you will find everything you need. Very nice: the air-conditioning is so quiet that you can leave it on while sleeping! Casa Mantana has been furnished with great care and attention in a very stylish and warm way. And I loved the private terrace to sit outside with company of the hummingbirds. Mariët and Ton make you feel at home from the first moment. They know the island very well. They have a lot of tips and are very easy to reach if you have a question. The interest in my first day of diving course was genuine and very nice. This really made me feel like I was coming home. The first time Bonaire was a great experience. For me Bonaire = Casa Mantana. At the moment I am scheduling my next stay at Bonaire and without a doubt I will stay at Casa Mantana again!
