Not quite as advertised

This is a nice property and in a wonderful location, but the description could mislead some vacationers. As mentioned in the description, this is two small cottages together on one lot. Each cottage is a small one bed/one bath, each having an additional three twins or sofa beds. Only the main bedroom in each cottage is air conditioned. This property would work well for two couples, or perhaps two couples each having one child, but it is not really a three bedroom. When I rented this, the plan was for three adults to share the house, each adult having one bedroom. Fortunately, one of the adults dropped out of the trip, so it was only two of us, and it worked fine. But had the third party come along, it would have been miserable. No way does this property sleep seven, unless you really don't care at all about privacy or sleeping with a/c.
The mattresses were not of top quality, and the mattress pads were not even the right size for the mattress I slept on. The mattress was too hard for me.
Also, the rustic old patio furniture, which looks good in the photos, is really not usable or at all comfortable. It should be replaced with some functional outdoor furniture.
The courtyard between these two cottages is really a nice space and was an area we enjoyed during the stay, but the landscaping certainly deserves some better care.
I see that the prices have gone down since I booked, so if you are two couples, or two adults looking for a place in Bonaire, this property may work for you.
