About Us

We are John & Kim

Hi! Nice to meet you

John & Kim

After reading and scrolling over our website, you would like to know who you are dealing with.

We are John and Kim, an easy-going and relaxed couple. Both born in The Netherlands and moved in July 2017 to the beautiful Island of Bonaire to start our Business Oasis Guesthouse Bonaire.

We decided to move to Bonaire because we love the tropical island vibes, nature and the beautiful blue ocean. 

We are both scuba divers, John is dive master and Kim is a SSI divemaster Instructor. So if you are interested in guided Dives or Scuba Diving courses, let us know.

Kim also loves other watersports like Free diving, Windsurfing and Kitesurfing. And once in a while we go for a hike with friends to explore the beautiful nature of Bonaire.

John volunteers for the Wild Bird Rehab. When there is a bird in trouble, injured or sick, mainly flamingo’s, they call Joh to rescue them and bring them to the Wild bird Rehab for the best care.

Kenzo & Dushi, our lovely friendly and spoiled dogs, both rescued on the island as pups. You will not see them around our Guesthouse, but if you want you can meet them across the street where our house is.

In the years we have upgraded and made Oasis Guesthouse Bonaire into a cozy small scale guesthouse for guests that love nature and watersports.

We love to welcome guests from around the world, introducing them to this beautiful island in the Caribbean. Our aim is to offer our guests exactly what we would like to experience on our own travels.

Yes we are very communicative and love to chat with our guests. However, we respect the individual privacy of our guests. 

Our beautiful tropical garden provides a seating area, pool, sunbeds and BBQ. For us the perfect spot to have a chat, drink or BBQ with our guests after a day full of new experiences.

We very much look forward to welcoming you
to be our guest and enjoy our hospitality!
