Playa Flamingo Vacations from $1,322

Beautiful property that provides a true “pura vida” experience. Spacious, modern rooms with great amenities for travelers. Outdoor rainshower was a pleasant surprise & the property host was so kind and informative. Also a lovely communal outdoor area, with lots of fun seating. Good parking if you drove, and walkable. Would stay again if visiting Tamarindo.

Overall, a very positive stay. The property is kept very clean. Rooms are spacious and clean. The pool system is a great one! It is a LARGE property. The beach area is very pretty and large as well. The cover in the pool area is well done offering good shade all day. You need it as the sun hits hard here. Staff is 90% smiles and very helpful. Where the property tanks is the food!! Very bland and few if no seafood offering in any of the "restaurants." If you've been to the DR you understand the food isn't bad but it isn't anything special. It is a step below that on this property. There are issues parking as well. HUGE parking lot but be prepared to be lucky and find a decent spot or you are walking what amounts to a few city blocks with no shade in some intense sun. The pool signs say closed at 6pm but that means the bar and towel service. You are allowed in the pool at any time. Overall, it wasn't an issue. We had a ocean/pool view room. At thene nd of our stay the ghetto from America arrived and were LOUD all night in the pool, ending at 5am. Staff should have done something but did not. Basically, improve the food and this place would be off the hook good! Rent the car and go see Costa Rica! At least hit Playa de Coco. Close proximity small surfer town. So much more to see. Worth dealing with the crummy roads and off-and-on cell service. Waze beats Google and Apple here. Costa Rican people in towns are usually very friendly

Really nice

We had a great week at Esh! The staff was very friendly and attentive. We loved the property and the pool. We made use of the sauna and cold plunge daily. We even saw monkeys while hanging out on the property. Yeh breakfast was delicious and plentiful keeping us full to start the day. Although the probably is a bit outside of town, the shuttle service is convenient to get to and from t e Esh to town.
