Paradise perfection!

This VRBO rental was fantastic! The location right next to the serene beach was perfect for our crew of 3. The rental itself could use some updates to the plumbing—slow toilets, poor water pressure throughout and some of the showers heads in the master shower need replaced….but all in all….this place is phenomenal! The view and the staff make up for any of the other issues. Truly amazing staff that will help with excursions, restaurant recommendations and travel. We loved it and will definitely come back!

Thank you so much for another 5 star review and we hope you return soon! Already have management addressing replacing shower heads. There is high calcium in the water in Playa Flamingo so this needs to be done regularly. Thank you for letting me know.

Nice quite location. Beautiful flowers. Backyard was great with the hot tub and the sounds from the creek below. Nice, clean home. Bed on the firm side, but comfortable. Only down side would be the short doorways and shower. If over 6' tall, you might bump your head. We would rent the home again.

Family Spring Break destination

This property is beautiful and just steps to the beach. We loved being able to wake up and open our balcony doors and sit outside to enjoy watching/listening the early morning sounds of the ocean. You can enjoy your time on the beach relaxing, enjoy using the complimentary boogie boards, kayaks or other available gear or take a dip in the pool. All of the amenities are fantastic. We appreciated the daily cleaning service. I don’t think we realized that perk when we booked. That was nice considering that you are in and out from the beach all day and tracking in said.

About the host

Hosted by Michael

Host profile image
We partnered with friends from Chicago and now own several properties in Playa Flamingo, with this beach front villa in The Palms being the jewel!

Why they chose this property

The Palms is, without a doubt, the most prestigious beachfront complex in Costa Rica. Flamingo Beach is the most beautiful beach in Costa Rica, and arguably one of the finest beaches in the world.

This private home has the amenities of a boutique 5 Star resort, including on-site non-motorized water sports, concierge, massage, food service and bar!

What makes this property unique

The location of this villa in the horse-shoe shaped complex affords it both a direct view of the ocean, and just as importantly, it allows you to relax comfortably on the patio without direct sun and heat all afternoon. This is the preferred section of the complex.

The high end finishes and craftsmanship of construction was a major selling point. In addition, the diversity of residents in this complex creates an atmosphere that we always look forward to.
