My husband and I just got back from visiting Flamingo, Costa Rica. We stayed at the Flamingo Beach Resort and Spa for 3 nights and let me just say that this hotel was perfect. The location is amazing and the staff was super friendly. The hotel grounds are nicely kept. The pool was clean as well. The only downside is... More

We attended our Son's wedding at this place and couldn't have been a more ideal place for a wedding on the beach. Only about an hour's drive from the Liberia airport. Good location for daily tours around Northern Costa Rica.

We traveled to Costa Rica in March. The weather was amazing! Very dry and hot. This area of the country is very dry (less tropical than you imagine, if you've never been before).The resort was beautiful and the staff were wonderful! Everyone is very cheerful and kind! The hospitality was the best I have ever experienced while traveling. I've heard... More

This resort is truly perfect. We stayed for 3 nights, and had the "all inclusive" plan. The food & drinks are DELICIOUS. You can tell the employees LOVE their jobs & they are all very caring. The rooms are GORGEOUS - recently updated & have various amenities, lay-outs, & views. The pool is just right. Everything was very well kept... More

The hotel hace nice rooms, although the outside of the building looks old. Actually the hotel is an old building, one of the first hotels in Flaming and Guanacaste, but they have kept it nice and clean, and remodeled the rooms. Also its right next to the beach, so no car needed. A nice play to relax. Food is also... More

I don't know where to begin to explain why I love this resort so much. I guess I will start with the staff because ultimately the staff at this resort is what made this vacation the best. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy. The bartender Elias made us the best cocktails and knew my... More

Flamingo Beach Resort has received some poor reviews and I don't understand why. It is a small resort, but that adds to the charm and personalized feel. I was here for a week (May 10 onwards) and everything was exceptional. The staff are friendly, professional, and they almost all speak English. We arrived early before check in time, and we... More

Sometimes after reading other reviews in Trip Advisor, one doesn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised, all in all. The room was very nice and large enough, king size bed, good pillows, better toilet paper than most hotels and a nice balcony overlooking the pool. I am glad I took the majority of people's recommendation and bumped... More
