$495k · 2 bed · 2 bath · 4.7% net yield

A corner apartment on the second floor opens its living area to a covered terrace overlooking the tropical garden and Caribbean Sea, with sunsets from the living space. It can be used personally or rented for holidays or long-term stays. Set on the second floor in Belnem, this apartment combines a living room and half-open kitchen with a covered terrace overlooking the tropical garden and the Caribbean Sea. Sliding doors connect the indoor living area to the terrace, which includes space for dining and lounging and looks toward the sunsets. The half-open kitchen includes a breakfast nook and a

At the agency’s map pin, the island’s spatial plan shows Woongebied - II (article 53), a residential zone, where short-stay letting is not allowed. The island has enforced that since May 2024. Bonaire’s spatial plan (the ROB) allows short-stay letting, meaning stays of up to three months, only in designated zones. Whether a plot is in one differs by neighbourhood and by plot, and in residential zones it is not allowed. A pin is not a surveyed plot boundary, and this one sits 37 m from ground where the answer differs. Have the zone checked in the ROB, or by the notary, before you buy. The yield on this page assumes the home may be let short-term, which the map does not allow at this pin.

Bonaire: the zoning map puts this home in a residential zone

At the agency’s map pin, the island’s spatial plan shows Woongebied - II (article 53), a residential zone, where short-stay letting is not allowed. The island has enforced that since May 2024.

Bonaire’s spatial plan (the ROB) allows short-stay letting, meaning stays of up to three months, only in designated zones. Whether a plot is in one differs by neighbourhood and by plot, and in residential zones it is not allowed.

The island government has enforced that since May 2024. In March 2024 it wrote to residents of eleven neighbourhoods: Sabal Palm, La Palma, Suikerpalm, Belnem, Bona Bista, Bolivia Ariba, Nawati, Santa Barbara, Hato, Sabadeco and Lagun Hill.

A pin is not a surveyed plot boundary, and this one sits 37 m from ground where the answer differs. Have the zone checked in the ROB, or by the notary, before you buy. The yield on this page assumes the home may be let short-term, which the map does not allow at this pin.

What it earns, what it costs to own, and the net yield

Financial analysis
· Brixfox Standard · Non-resident · Fully managed
Fully managed is the Brixfox Standard shown on every card: a full-service manager's commission, charged on top of the Airbnb/Booking channel fees (not the cleaning cost — changeovers are funded by guest cleaning fees; you bear the residual). Self-managed drops the commission; the channel fees stay, because the platform is paid whoever manages, and you pay staff/local operations, a higher cleaning residual and your own time directly. Both scenarios divide the SAME gross revenue — the toggle changes the cost stack, not the revenue. That revenue is observed from actively-operated comps, so self-managed assumes you match their performance.Both scenarios share the same projected revenue — the toggle changes who runs the property and what that costs, not what it earns.
Net yieldNet operating income ÷ all-in investment. After local operating taxes; before home-country personal tax and financing costs. Modelled from observed market performance of comparable Airbnb listings.

No Airbnb match on file

We have not confirmed this exact property on Airbnb, so it carries no operating history here. The figures above rest on the comparable set — a launch scenario, not a track record.

Revenue assumptions

Derived from the comparable Airbnb listings below. The headline ADR is the expected BOOKED rate — nearby asking prices corrected by our measured, market-calibrated asking-to-booked factor. Occupancy is calibrated against tracked reference homes nearby. Comp cards below show raw asking prices.

No income tax is charged: Bonaire's vastgoedbelasting taxes a deemed yield on the value instead. That is our reading of the law, not a ruling, so ask an accountant before relying on it. Financing is not modelled.

Rental yield + value growth

Your net rental yield plus a yearly rise in the property's market value (land and building) that you choose. Value growth is an assumption, not data — which is why it starts at 0% and is kept out of the yield figures above.
