Fantastic vacation villa

My family stayed at the Palms Villa over Xmas. The property is superbly appointed, just steps from the pools and pristine beach. The owner was extremely responsive and helpful with lots of tips and contacts, and the concierge helped us book several excursions which were fantastic. Very quiet and relaxing. Definitely 5 stars, and I'm a picky customer. Top notch.

Fantastic property and great host!

We truly enjoyed our stay at the Palms with Keith! The unit was very clean and well maintained with very comfortable beds. Keith was very responsive and helpful. The ice maker was broken but he arranged for ice delivery. There were no boogie boards but Keith had one delivered. The grounds, beach and pool areas were amazing and relaxing. It was nice to be close to the marina because we arranged for 2 tours for boating and snorkeling. Overall, an amazing stay!

Amazing

This was our second stay at The Palms and it was amazing. The combination of the pools with the best beach in Flamingo was perfect for our family. The owner was super attentive, messaged us to make sure we had everything we needed and provided us with the location of several local restaurants. The concierge service is quick and responsive to any requests or questions. Additionally, daily housekeeping in a condo is a huge plus. We're already planning our next trip back!

Beautiful Place! Great Host! Concierge and Staff!

These beautiful villas are in a perfect location - about 50 ft from two beautiful pools and about 75 ft from the ocean/beach and very walkable to the fabulous Coco-Loco (great food!) You won't find many properties like this in the area (if any). It's not overrun with guests or tourists (let's put it this way--there was never a wait or struggle to get beach chairs around the private pool). Just right. The villas are beautiful and extremely well-maintained. A big shout out to our host - Keith who was accommodating and understood exactly what our extended family needed - from transportation, and dining accommodations to fishing and other activities in the area.

Great accommodations

The accommodations were as expected. Very good for two couples. The owner , Keith, was in constant touch. He also made a car available for us to use at a reasonable cost. We found several good restaurants nearby at the marina - Hazel’s , Matias and Surf Box. Next to the resort is PoloLoco which is a casual beach front eatery. We did a couple of excursions. The sunset cruise was nice - an afternoon out to the rocks in the distance. We also did the tour to Nicaragua. Brutal- 16 hours - most in a crammed van. Not recommended unless you want to punish yourselves. All good - Pura Vida !

Playa Flamingo Paradise

My husband and I spent 10 days at The Palms. Our daughter and her fiance joined for a week. Keith was very responsive for any questions and provided recommendations for restaurants. Be aware that prices have gone up a fair amount in the past 5 years. Dinner for four was easily 200 and we only had one cocktail and no dessert. We went to the nearby Super Massai for groceries and ate breakfast/lunch in most days. There are grills available for use just around the corner. The villa is just as the pictures show. Very clean. Kitchen was well stocked. One recommendation would be to make it clear about recycling. There was a bin outside but we were unsure what could be recycled and felt bad putting bottles in the trash. Great view of the ocean. We were there at the beginning of May which is off peak. There were only a few villas occupied. No problem with chairs by the pool (like you would experience at a resort). Kevin, the bartender was there if you needed a beverage. The disadvantage was that we also had rain/storms most evenings.There is a small fitness center with treadmills, bikes, free weights and a weight machine. I had to work a few days. The WiFi was reliable except for one day when they were working on a line.We would definltely recommend staying at this villa.

Unit is not as advertised.

The resort property and location is beautiful. Staff is very helpful and friendly. The unit itself does not look at all like the pictures. Is outdated and second bedroom is tiny, dim, and overlooks busy part of property parking lot. Refrigerator has every shelf cubby broken and wine cooler is broken. The second bedroom could be used for a child but not another set of adults and extremely dark. Bathroom is tiny and can barely move around in bathroom. The resort is in a great spot, beautiful grounds, beach, and pool. We would return to the resort but would find an updated condo aside from this one.

You’ll want to come back!

From the moment we booked the villa, Keith the owner came back to us and asked “ only 3 nights” “ you will regret not staying longer”. I explained how our family was visiting different parts of the country. Well Keith was absolutely right! My 22 and 19 year olds who did not want a VRBO were first to say “ why didn’t we stay here longer”. This location, the villa , the staff, and Keith were all amazing! Nice surprises: Poolside bar 12-6pm. Charges directly go to your room. Nice and convenient.! Coco Loco restaurant close by. Walk to it for nice evening out. Stay in and order and enjoy quiet dinner at your villa. Food was great! Enjoy all the boogie boards, pool noodles, etc honor system,! Want a massage? Don’t need to go far. Nice cabana set up on the property. Bikes on the premises! Best yet. Location , location! Beach, pool, peace! We will be coming back!

Amazing property, amazing host!

After reading the reviews we had pretty high expectations for this property and we were NOT disappointed! Keith’s unit at the Palms is very spacious and well-kept. Keith also kept open lines of communication with us for the whole trip and between Keith and the 24 hour resort concierge if there was literally “anything” we needed it was taken care of immediately. There is a little loft area on top of one of the bedrooms that our 10 year old son absolutely loved. There is a bakery truck and a seafood truck that comes a couple of times per week and we able to try both. The bakery truck is great and has lots of pastries, breads etc. For transportation getting around the resort has a shuttle bus, and they also have golf cart rentals (about 65usd per day) however we opted to use Uber mainly for the short trips which was cost effective, quick, and we didn’t have to drive at all. For transportation to and from the airport I would recommend going through Keith or the resort, they will make sure that you have a driver ready and waiting. For your stay at the resort and in Costa Rica in general I would recommend getting WhatsApp as most calls and messaging are conducted there. We also got Esims through Airalo and 1 gig of data was plenty for the week. I’m running out of room but the highlight was having the pleasure of dealing with Keith who will ensure that you are 100% happy. You are in good hands with this host and I would not hesitate to go back! Pura Vida!

Perfect spot on Playa Flamingo for family of 4

We were a family of four and had a wonderful stay at this condo over New Years. The condo itself has everything, beds were comfortable, patio and balconies were nice for eating/reading outside, and we got great use out of the kitchen. The Palms is a beautiful property with nice pools,water toys free to use, a lovely outdoor grill area, a great massage

The Best Holiday Ever!

Even before our arrival, I had good feelings about this stay. Not just from the pictures, but from the interactions with Keith before we got there! Unbelievably gracious, kind, and connected to his guests! We celebrated a big birthday and treated ourselves to an unfamiliar holiday. The place was fantastic, and if there was a need, he or the staff at the Palms acted to resolve it! The concierge team was fantastic, the outdoor kitchen was perfect, and the pool was amazing! Don't be scared of the "rainy season". Green and lush, and the minimal rain we got was short-lived. Drivers, local transportation, recommendations, suggestions, the PLACE.... we absolutely loved our stay and hope to return someday. Thank you for a wonderful holiday Keith. With our gratitude! We hope others are blessed to enjoy your home and this place!!

Our 5 person family really enjoyed our stay at The Palms. Keith, the Villa owner, was very helpful and attentive. The Staff at The Palms was very gracious and kind.
