  The entrance
The grand entrance to Oud Lagoen and its surrounding walls compliment the unique design of the project. The villas are divided by white picket fences that are very caractaristic to Bonaire. The stylish setting welcomes you to a time when life was less stressful and more peaceful. The “Homeowners´ Association” guarantees the project’s uniformity.
     
  Classic features
Great effort was made to reproduce authentic mouldings for the villa’s roofs and gutters. The results are exeptional. Together with traditional white wooden shutters, handmade, iron cast door latches (imported from the U.K.) and Colombian hardwood floors throughout the houses, the Oud Lagoen villas give you a grand colonial feeling.
     
  The gardens
The private gardens were designed and landscaped by a professional landscape architect. By using imported tropical plants and trees, a sense of depth and balance was achieved to enhance the colonial setting. Over 60 trees and 3,000 plants create a lush oasis. There is plenty of room for sun tanning or simply a gentle stroll to discover an unusual flower or tree.
     
  The interiors
Altough these villas may look like they’re 150 years old, they have all modern conveniences. We combined adjustable halogen lighting and cable TV (in practically all rooms) with cottage style kitchens that are hand painted in an aged effect. There are abundant electrical outlets and air conditioning ducts installed in case the constant breeze doesn’t cool you down at night.
     
  Kitchen
The very spacious kitchen is fully equipped with a large American fridge/freezer, icemaker, 4 ring gas stove, microwave oven, coffee maker, toaster, dishwasher, utensils, pots and pans....all the necessary items to do home cooking. The local supermarkets carry all American and European brands from Hellmann's mayonnaise to Dutch Calvé peanut butter.
     
  Classic features
The very spacious kitchen with beautiful handcrafted kitchen cabinets has many classic features and is hand painted in an aged effect. The hardwood floors throughout the whole house, together with the classic doors give the house a grand colonial feeling. The traditional style handmade hinges and door latches are imported from the U.K.
     
  Bedroom
Villa Salina houses three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a modern comfortable queen-sized bed, dimmed halogen lighting, television, two bedside tables, two large built in closets for storage and adjoins a luxurious bathroom. All bedrooms have a remote controlled ceiling fan. The two other bedrooms have, comfortable beds and share the second bathroom.
