The place is wonderful, the views from the deck can’t be beat and you’re just ten steps away from the beach. Just to keep in mind, there are two bedrooms up stairs and three bedrooms downstairs when planning with a large group. The chef Yvonne was awesome - the food was so good and she was very accommodating. And the place is spotless, daily housecleaning everyday!

The place has the best location. We loved being able to go to the beach and walk home for lunch. The house was spacious and we loved the upper deck. We loved Yvonne, the cook, who was so amazing! Her casado was the best we had in Costa Rica! There was a bit of water leaking near the end of our stay, but luckily it was in a bathroom and nothing for ruined. Also, although Jasmina the maid did a great job, she really did not need to come everyday. We didn’t know she would automatically be part of the package. If so, we would have said we didn’t need her. Just a personal preference. Overall, we enjoyed the house and location.

We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend this property. The pool was beautiful, and the ocean views from the porch were absolutely stunning. Traveling with three generations, it was the perfect setup for all ages to relax and enjoy time together. The group spent a lot of time at the beach. A special thank you to Jasmina, who kept everything spotless with daily cleaning, and chef Yvonne, whose meals made the trip extra special and completely stress-free. Their help allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our vacation. The host provided excellent recommendations before and during our stay. We rented a golf cart and a van, which made getting around easy, and the drive from the airport was simple. Having Coco Loco right next door was another huge plus, the food was amazing and the location couldn't have been more convenient. Overall, an outstanding experience that created wonderful family memories. We would gladly stay here again.

We had an amazing stay in Playa Flamingo! The location truly couldn’t be better—just steps from the beach. All you have to do is cross a small street and you’re on one of the most beautiful beaches, with incredible views right from the property. The absolute highlight of our stay was the cook, Ivonne. Her food was outstanding—easily one of the best parts of our trip. She was warm, friendly, and shared great local insight. Booking her is a must if you’re staying here. Jasmine, the housekeeper, was also wonderful—very kind and kept everything spotless throughout our stay. There was so much to enjoy during our time here. We did a sunset catamaran tour, had relaxing massages right on the beach, and loved grabbing coco loco drinks next door. We were also lucky to see wildlife like monkeys, iguanas, crabs, and a variety of beautiful birds, which made the experience even more special. And the sunsets… absolutely breathtaking. The views each evening were unforgettable and truly made this st

We enjoyed our 1 week stay with 5 adults and 3 kids. Plenty of space, it never felt crowded. Access to the beach right across the road, couldn’t be any better! We rented a canopy for the week from one of the local guys and that helped to beat the heat. When it was too hot for the beach, we would go back to the pool which was clean and had an inviting outdoor area. No complaint, but the road can be noisy especially mid day into the evening. It never interrupted us or caused issues with sleep though. The chef was 10/10. Recommend booking!

Extreme pura vida! Rent this home, and you will not be disappointed. Hire the chef, no matter what you do, as well. She is beyond amazing!!!!!!! We did not rent a car or other vehicle, and we did not need to, which was awesome. Playa Flamingo is a very clean, beautiful beach right in front of the house. Walter, who rents beach chairs and tents, is most helpful and will give you a good deal for your entire stay. Just remember to bring LOTS of cash; US dollars are fine, smaller bills are better. The house had Christmas decorations, which made our holiday stay very special. I look forward to visiting again :)

The location of this home was even better than expected. You feel as if the beach is your own. The views from the upper deck are breathtaking. Plenty of towels for the pool and beach are provided. Well stocked kitchen. We never had a bad meal at Coco Loco right next door. However, be sure to book Yvonne the chef as well. She is warm and kind and makes absolutely delicious fresh food, and Plenty of it! I will be saving up to come again for sure!
