Our second home. Views from everywhere, even the Master bath!

Playa Flamingo is the jewel of the Gold Coast. Renowned for its clear warm waters, soft white sand beach, beautiful evening sunsets and world class sports fishing. Playa Flamingo has been awarded the prestigious Blue Flag designation as an ecological beach. Located just offshore, outstanding scuba diving awaits you in the Catalina Islands. The Palms is conveniently located only 45 minutes from the Liberia International Airport and 25 minutes from Tamarindo Airport. The entire complex has recently completed a multi-million dollar upgrade. The Palms has become Costa Rica's most prestigious beach front address. The only original thing left on the property is the amazing white sand of Flamingo Beach Costa Rica's premier beach.....a few steps from the condo.

The Palms is quite simply unmatched. Its gardens are adorned with an array of exotic plants, beautiful tropical flowers and stately Royal palms. These gardens attract butterflies and dozens of bird species, just as nature intended. The Palms was built to the highest standards. Natural Costa Rican materials have been combined with old world craftsmanship to create a stunning oasis on the coveted Pacific Coast of Costa Rica. Our custom Interior is finished using local hardwood and stone throughout. We wanted a Costa Rican home fashioned with local materials. It's first class all the way.....Sub-zero, Bosch and other fabulous appliances.

On the ocean's edge, you will find this 2300 square foot private residence and luxurious beachfront sanctuary. The property is located near the end of a secluded cove, is gated and has 24-hr security. A beautiful vanishing edge pool overlooks the blue waters of the Pacific Ocean and the soft, white sand of Playa Flamingo, providing the ultimate location

This is undoubtedly the best location on the beach in Gaunacaste. Come and enjoy our wonderful home, listen to the birds, lounge on either of the 2 large decks over-looking the pool and ocean or just relax inside the air conditioned luxury. There are many gourmet restaurants in the area. You may also wish to try your hand at cooking in the gourmet kitchen.

After either a busy or relaxing day enjoying the endless pool and spectacular sunsets.

...fall asleep to the sound of the surf.

About Elyne Johnson

I live in Vancouver, B.C., Canada. I am not yet retired but, can get away for extended vacations. I love to be in a warm place in 'winter', away from all that rain! I enjoy reading and relaxing at The Palms on Flamingo Beach. It is the ideal situation for me to just sit back and get away from all the daily 'business' of life.

Elyne Johnson purchased this villa in 2000
Why Elyne Johnson chose Playa Flamingo

I had always dreamed of a vacation home on the beach. After researching all the potential places in the world, I chose Costa Rica. I traveled there and went from Coast to Coast .....finallly ending my search on the white sands of Flamingo Beach. The particular unit I purchased was previously owned by a lovely couple from England. It was the first ever to sell in the complex! It is a corner unit and I feel is on the best location of any in the entire place.I call it the Madiera (wood in Spanish) House. It has all native and natural products from flooring to cabinetry. I just love the authenticity of the finishings.

What makes this villa unique

This unit has two Master Bedroom Suites, both with 'King-Size' beds. The beach-side Master suite has a private Jacuzzi Tub in the Bathroom with views right out to the beach. the unit also has lots of storage and hanging space for clothes and luggage plus, a great little built-in desk for the computer. There's lots of new beach equipment onsite. Examples are: a long board for surfing, 2 stand-up paddle boards, 4 boogie-boards, various sized masks and fins for snorkeling and some sand 'toys'.

This is our 5th visit to Costa Rica, and we've stayed in at least 10 different places. Although we have been to Flamingo Beach before, and loved it, we had not stayed here. What a treat! Highlights: incredible views (which is not the case for all the units there), right on a beautiful beach, stand-up paddle boards to use whenever you want, infinity edge pool, super nice staff, immaculate grounds, modern furnishings and appliances, walking distance to restaurants, quiet. Of all the places where we have stayed, this is one where we will be coming back for sure, maybe with the kids!
The owner gave us all the info we needed, and even sent us a hand written thank you after. I'd recommend this place for sure.

All the comments are true - Elyne's place is awesome! Everything is very high end and well maintained. The unit had everything needed; kitchen well stocked, plenty of linens, board games, great entertainment system. (athough I do agree the couches are not the most comfortable - but we did spend most of the days outside, so not really an issue). The Palms resort itself is extremely clean and very safe with gated entrance and security on the grounds.
The staff were superb. Jorge went above and beyond the call getting us to The Palms and helping us with our car rental and giving us the inside scoop of where to shop for groceries and where to eat. Roy was so great: his drinks were delicious and his cooking is first rate. Highly recommend having him cook a meal for guests. He had the answers to every single question we came up with and was very patient with any inquiry we had. He was also always willing to help set us up with tours and give recommendations to nearby restaurants. And he was true to his word - cocktails at 5 rain or shine!
Finally, I cannot say enough about Elyne's organization. Her email response time is most impressive and again was very thorough in answering any question I had.
From beginning to end, this was absolutely a five star stay at a five star place on the beach.
The pictures do not do the setting justice. Easily the nicest place for miles around. We could not have asked for a better family vacation and introduction to Costa Rica. Book this unit, you will not be disappointed!
Pura Vida!

Loved the set up at Elyne's place on Flamingo Beach!! Jorge met us as we arrived and made sure were were off and running. Sarah, Roy, Massel and the staff at the Palms were wonderful. We enjoyed a dinner on the Beach served by Roy as well as several wonderful meals at neighboring restaurants including Marysol and Carlos Y Carlos. The accomodations were comfortable and clean. Nancy did a great job cleaning our place everyday as she had to do the dishes as well since the dishwasher wasn't working. Lovedthe pool and Ocean!! Massel kept our drinks full and the people of Costa Rica are incredible!! Love this place and look forward to returning!!

What a wonderful place to stay. Beautifully appointed and very comfortable. The staff is wonderful. Roy is a real jewel. There are plenty of water toys for your use. The ocean is right there as well as a beautiful pool. Working with the owner was very easy. Pick this place for your next trip. You will love it.

The Palms is a wonderful complex--the pool is great, the grounds are beautiful, and the food is great! We had dinner by the beach cooked by Roy, the on-site chef. The way it is set up is beautiful.
The kitchen in the condo has everything--even an electric tea kettle, but the living room couches may be the most uncomfortable couches I have ever been on--including my college futon! Everything else was nice---I even used the spa tub.
This was my first time to Playa Flamingo. We didn't have a car. If we return, we will definitely get one. There is a quickie mart in walking distance, but a real grocery store is a drive away. Plus, some of the restaurants in town aren't very far, but there aren't any sidewalks so it can make walking difficult.
