Dec 14, 2024Amazing hotel - chilled vibe!
We're at this hotel now and it's great. The location is perfect - right on the beach of playa flamingo. 5 minute walk to the marina. The hotel has a real chilled vibe about it which is just what we wanted, it's not too busy which is perfect. All the staff here are fantastic and do an amazing job! The food is delicious we haven’t had one bad meal at all. You can order from the menu in banana wind, license to chill bar or 5 o clock somewhere bar and the menu varies in each slightly. The buffet in banana wind is soooo good! They also have an Italian restaurant which you can book which is good too. Plenty of pool tables and live singers on some nights. The only one thing I’d change is the annoying Jimmy Buffet playlist - it’s on repeat and starts to drive you slightly insane after a while. Other than that it’s a perfect little spot!

Outstanding
Here right now 14 December 2024 with my wife. First time in Costa Rica but we have travelled to the Caribbean and Mexico for many years. Older, and smaller facilities. Clean, safe and not very crowded. Exceptional food. Never had a bad meal. Buffet at breakfast but a la cart in all other places ( four restaurants…… need reservations for the Italian restaurant only ). The team is excellent, attentive and deal with any issue quickly and efficiently. Beach is steps away across a small dirt road ( all beaches in CR are public ). Beautiful to walk Flamingo Beach. There are venders and massage services available on the beach, however they are respectful and not pushy or aggressive. Wonderful place to kick off relaxing holiday.

Absolutely fantastic
Wow!!! Currently here. What a fantastic Hotel. If your coming to Costa Rica you should definitely stay here. Everything is perfect - from all the lovely very hard working staff to the fantastic food. Nothing is too much trouble. The staff are all friendly and always smiling. The rooms are very good and kept very clean. We were going to upgrade our room as not a sea view but found no need as all the rooms are spacious and kept very clean. The choice of food is extensive plenty to choose from. From licence to chill pool bar, 5 o'clock somewhere bar and banana wind cafe and pizzas in the Italian. Little shopping area right outside the hotel. Absolutely fabulous can't rate this Hotel high enough!

Nov 23, 2024Great
Staff very welcoming. Problem with room at check in but sorted very quickly. Rooms were very good, the place has just had a re furb. Food was very good, only buffet was breakfast with a good choice. Could order omelettes if you asked. So close to the beach, just over the road/track. Strong currents in the sea, great for wave hopping though. The only down side for us was a tropical storm which meant a lot of rain but would come back again. Staff at the 5 o clock anywhere bar were superb as was the food. Go on organised trips but be aware a lot of travelling, up to 3 hrs each way but so worth it. Preferred currency seems to be US dollars but we took colones and found we got a better rate. Our advice is to take a bit of both if you like to get out and about.

Please no more Jimmy Buffet
In the resort at the moment and have absolutely loved the stay despite the weather, which is finally starting to turn for the better. I will put up a more detailed review after our stay. But for now I would love it if you could enhance our last few days in your wonderful resort by not playing any more Jimmy Buffet music. Please vary up the playlist as this will ensure my last few days will be a better experience for me, my wife, residents and these poor staff who work so hard.
