This was our first visit to Costa Rica! The home was spotless and the view of the ocean is incredible. The concierge was very helpful and assisting us with planning a few lovely excursions. There are several nearby locations for dining. We definitely stay here again.

The pictures do not do the property justice. The property is beautiful, very clean, very well maintained. We stayed in Villa 5 and felt very much at home. The view from the Villa is really breathtaking. It is very clean and very well equipped We felt very much at home. Would highly recommend The Palms Residence and Villa 5. This was a 5 star experience.

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.

The Palms

Overall, it was excellent. However, it wasn’t without a few issues that were more of a nuisance than a major problem such as a lack of electrical outlets, some of which didn’t work, a shower that didn’t work well, broken toilet paper holder. However, management was very responsive and did their best to correct the problem.

Great quality experience

Thank you - we really enjoyed our stay. The villa is lovely, and very well appointed. The resort itself was beautifully maintained and the gardens were lovely. The beach area was tidied daily and the pool was very clean. The staff were very nice. We loved that Coco-Loco was nearby - a great and fun beach restaurant an easy walk away, with fabulous food and drinks. The only thing that was a bit of a disappointment was that we used the pre-order grocery service, and it wasn’t there on our arrival as was promised; it was delivered 3 hours later after some follow-up by staff. Also, they didn’t have change and only brought it on our last day, and in Costa Rican currency (we had paid in US cash). Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back again in the future for another adult family vacation.

Beautiful property

Beautiful property, great location, had everything you could ever need! Had an issue at check in, wasn’t given the property we had rented, the owner said it wasn’t available. The property we were given didn’t have enough beds for our family, wasn’t super clean, and the dishwasher was broken. After jumping a few hoops and and having to switch to a few different villas in the first two days, they were able to find us a villa (still not the one we rented) that could accommodate our family nicely. Overall, even with the “wrong villa” issue we would stay here again! Staff was excellent and concierge was so helpful! I think the issue with room not being available had more to do with the owner of the villa and not securing our reservation and not the actual property.

Paradise!!

We loved our family time here at the palms!!! The pool and beach were so calming and fun. We spent our first half of the trip doing activities near Arenal…the palms was a great place to chill after all the adventure!! My only complaint was that we could not play catch in the pool abd we did not know until we signed the release the day before our stay began. We just played catch on the beach instead and enjoyed all the sun and beauty! The staff was super kind and outgoing and even helped us practice and learn Spanish!!

Excellent!

This was a great vacation for us and our two kids. The location and all amenities are perfect for a family. They’re a little rule heavy on the pool (no toys in the pool) which was a bit hard with the kids but other than that 5/5. The place was clean, staff were amazing - we are coming back next year! Also loved that our grocery delivery was ready and waiting for us when we checking in!

The Palms Never Disappoints

As always, the stay at The Palms never disappoints. This is our second time staying at The Palms. We stayed in Villa #5 and it was great! However, we did miss having the bartender at the bar full time and food prepared by the Palms. The restaurant next door does deliver, so that was nice! The beach & pool was awesome.

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.
