Very decent family style resort. It is relatively small, so everything is right there: pool, restaurant, lobby and the beach. However, if you are looking for variety of restaurants and entertainment in the resort this is not right place for you to go. Staff is very friendly and helpful.

Way too many problems to describe but here are main ones: 1) Rooms were smelly and not clean at all 2) Linens were over-used and need immediate replacement 3) Water pressure in sink as well as shower was extremely low 4) Customer service was very poor.

Place was better than we expected for a 3 star hotel. Everything worked in the room just fine. Food was good, staff friendly, amenities good, beach was clean and beautiful, overall a very pleasant experience. I did have to refer to my Expedia booking info on check in to get the room we had paid for: we were assigned a ground floor room and I had requested […] upper floor pool view. Our request was fulfilled without problem. Lesa meira

The Flamingo Beach Resort & Spa was a great place to stay at the end of our vacation. We stayed there with a group of friends in January for 2 nights so that we could finish our month long vacation with a bang. From the time that we checked into the hotel we felt relaxed. We were greeted with special cocktails at the front desk and were able to check […] in a couple hours early. Our room was fantastic! It was located on the ground floor and had sliding doors out to the pool area. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable! The pool was also great and had a view of the ocean, which was nice. The food at the hotel was ok as well....try the chicken parmesan!! I highly recommended this hotel to anyone needing a break before a long trip home. Lesa meira

FBR is a great beach side resort with happy and pleasant staff. Located across the best beach in the area. Amazing sunsets! The breakfast plan was great, always fresh fruit, fresh juices and different breakfast options including an omelet stand. The pool area is one of the best I have ever seen. The size of this resort is great, your room is only two […] minutes away from everything, beach, pool, restaurant... Lesa meira

Our family enjoyed our stay at Flamingo. It was family friendly, close proximity to beach ( access road before beach not an issue ), and a nice beach free of other hotels. The staff was very helpful, the concierge went out of her way to help us find a used surf board shop. Nice pool with swim up bar. The only 2 things that needed improving were: the […] bartender at the swim up bar was extremely slow ( go to the upper outside bar for faster service and the rooms could use some cosmetic work. Would stay again. Lesa meira

Wonderful resort with a wonderful staff. We couldn't have been happier. The breakfast buffet was always amazing. The setting was perfect. There were eateries nearby to stroll to and we always felt safe and well tended-to. The only warning we might include in this review is that this is a tropical location with high humidity so there are no carpets anywhere […] in the resort. The tile and marble floors get very slippery. Bring and wear sandles with a good tread on them. I slipped the first day and sported a nice shiner on my left eye for the duration of the trip. Other than that it was just the greatest. We will definitely come back. Lesa meira

The entire Guanacaste coast is fairly rural so if you are picturing beach town go to tamarindo. This hotel is a great resort by costa rica standards and I highly recommend it based on affordability for what you get. Has some of the best access to a very beautiful and clean white sand beach, decent food, good service, clean rooms and overall good vibe. […] It even has a little casino! Lesa meira

I had a nice stay at the Flamingo Resort. At checkin they put me in a room with 2 double beds and not much of a view. After talking with the desk clerk that I had reserved a room with a king bed and a pool view. I was told that this is all they had that they were full and there is added charges for a view. I showed them my res from Expedia and they […] told me that they have a room for me. They moved me to the new room with a king bed and a great view of the pool. The rest of my stay was nice and relaxing. The food there was a little pricey but there are some nice resturants in the area. The pool is great with a swim up bar and a ledge that is just below the water for tanning and staying cool. I seen some wonderful sunsets from there and the beach is quit nice also. The staff were all nice and friendly that made for a pleasant stay. I loved the open lobby and corridories that let the breezes flow through the building. There are lots of interisting plants and iguanise and trees to see. When I go back to Costa Rica I will stay at the Flamingo Resort again and recommend the resort to friends. Lesa meira

My friends and I really enjoyed our stay at Flamingo Beach. We had a few issues with charging food/drinks to our room initially, but once it was taken care of, there were no problems. We stayed in 2 seperate rooms, one of which didn't have a fridge - but this actually turned out to be ok because we didn't need it. The pool is beautiful and the swim […] up bar amazing. There is also immediate access to the beach from the pool. Some of the bartenders were absolutely incredible at making drinks and typically never skimped on the alcohol. All of the staff members were friendly, courteous, and spoke very good English. The breakfast buffet was also amazing. On a few occasions, ordering off the menu proved to have slow service, but we weren't too bothered by this. All in all, we had a wonderful time and would gladly stay here again. Lesa meira

Great Hotel and location. The only thing I have negative to say is that is does not have room service after 9:30 pm and no other place in the hotel to get something to eat late at night. Besides that, loved our stay.

This hotel is a little run down and needs some attention. The dining areas are not very inspired and the menu items aren't varied enough. Those who purchased an all-inclusive package got a pretty good deal. Those who ordered off the menu were overcharged. I got sick after eating the ceviche the first night. We did not drink the water of have ice in […] our beverages. The beach was nice and the pool activities were fun. There wasn't much activity to participate in without a car. Lesa meira

Great location, great beach. Don't listen to the malcontents that complain about the hotel not really being on the beach. It is on the beach with a lightly traveled gravel road between the actual hotel property and the sandy beach. BIG deal. The beach vendors were friendly and courteous. The hotel pool is large and nice. I would not recommend the all […] inclusive option however. There are a number of very good, and i mean very good restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. Prices are 1/3 less than home. If you really need to get wasted everyday while on vacation then the all inclusive might be worth it. But do the rest of us a favor if your that type, stay home and get wasted instead Lesa meira

althought we resreve 2 double beds, they had only king bed room. We stayed for 4 nights so they gave us a suit for 2 nightrs and made us change the room for the other 2 nights, which was uncomfertable! The suit wae nice but the regular room are very simple like 3 star hotel in the US! The hotel has a great game room with ping pong, pool and other games. At […] 8 oclock you already cannot find a chair at the pool...wake up at 7 if you would like one! The beach is graet and the sunset is awsom. You can find many restaurants outside the hotel, if you dont eat at the hotel! Lesa meira

Beach has high surf and warnings for riptides make swimming risky. If you like quiet resort and beach, this is great. For us, we would have preferred staying closer to a big town like Tamarindo for access to more food and activity choices. The concierge was very helpful and helped booked trips to nearby towns for various activities. Restaurant staff […] were also very accomodating in catering to specific diet we had. Kids loved the game room - and the iguanas on site. Lesa meira

I just went with a friend for a short getaway and we could not have had a better time! We did not get the all-inclusive which would have been a waste for us as we do not frink that much. If you do, then get the all inclusive because drinks are about $9. There is a restaurant called Marie's right across the street from Flamingo hotel. I HIGHLY recommed […] it. Not expensive and GREAT food! Everyone at the hotel was EXTREMELY nice and helpful and went out of their way for you. I am considering going back! The best time to go we heard is the dry season which starts in December. We did not have a drop of rain. It was perfect weather the entire time! The other thing that is very helpful is transportation from to and from the airport. Use Ecotran! They only charge $20 per person where you will pay double that with anyone else. They have an office located right across the street from Flamingo Hotel. They are also the cheapest for the excusrions. Lesa meira

It is a nice hotel with very good breakfast. The all inclusive does not worth it. It is better and cheaper to pay only for the night and breakfast and during the day go to the beautiful beaches that are around and eat in some local restaurants. The swimming pool is nice too.

We stayed for a week. We had been to costa rica previously and seen some tourist sites, so we were looking for a relaxing beach vacation. We really enoyed the pool. The beach is sandy, although the waves were very strong the week we were there.There is a small road between the hotel and the beach, but it was not an issue. We enjoyed the breakfast, but […] were glad we did not have all our meals there. Used the hotel transportation ( for a fee) to go out for dinner and some exploring. Also, could walk to a few restaurants. We did have intermittent rain showers, but it was warm so the rain did'n't really matter. Lesa meira
