Stunning Beachfront at The Palms 29—Beachside Couples Massage Included!
Hi, we're Mike and Julia, and we're ready to welcome you to The Palms Villa 29. Your stay includes a relaxing couples massage on the beach as our welcome gift! The privately owned and operated villa is meticulously cleaned and sanitized ahead of your arrival, and includes daily cleaning service during your stay. Please check out our reviews for the real scoop on our beautiful home in paradise! Instead of using a property management company, we rent the villa directly and independently, and do everything from maintenance, deep cleans and even buy the soaps and consumables ourselves. We take immense pride in our home and are proud to offer you incredibly fast replies, helpful advice, and a 5-star experience that never cuts corners. Thanks for your interest and we look forward to answering any questions you may have about our home and your trip to Costa Rica!
The home is two stories with two bedrooms and three full baths, and finished with fine modern furnishings providing luxury and comfort in every room. The villa contains floor to ceiling double panel bi-fold doors which maximize your view of the amazing sunsets from both floors. There is also a quiet second storey balcony at the front of the home. It has two full dining areas, one indoor and one outdoor. Go out the back doors and you are less than fifty steps to the white sandy beach!
Beds & Bedrooms: Master Suite: 1x King Bed Guest Suite: Either 2x Twin or 1x King, plus a loft with 1x double. We also have a new (comfortable!) Queen sofa bed in the living room with black-out blinds, and a full bath on the main floor. Due to local bylaws, the unit can sleep up to a maximum of 6 people. Kids: The Villa offers a pack and play crib with mattress, baby blanket, baby pillows, changing pad and a baby monitor (which reaches the poolside!) We also offer several toys and board games.
The Palms has 24/7 guards, gated privacy and two pools with attractive tropical landscaping throughout the complex. The main 100ft infinity pool is great for little ones, too! There is a fully equipped gym with a beautiful ocean view. The resort offers non-motorized water sports equipment (boogie boards, masks, flippers), and the staff are glad to facilitate anything from catamaran tours to wave runners, babysitting, and more. Hot lunches and dinners is delivered by nearby Coco Loco, with breakfast offered on weekends; and there is an on-site bar serving tropical cocktails in the afternoon and at sunset. Our concierge team can even organize private sunset dinners on the beach!
If you love to cook, you'll enjoy the fully stocked kitchen, Viking appliances, and a common barbecue area that boasts brand new Weber grills with motorized rotisseries!
The villa includes fast 100 mbps wifi, Smart TVs with built-in access to Netflix. The fees payable via VRBO cover daily housekeeping, paper products (toilet paper, paper towel and facial tissue) and bath soap/shampoo/conditioner - a true hotel-like experience! Club fees also cover on-site Concierge services, daily beach towels, non-motorized water sports, fabulous ocean-view gym, and property-wide wifi.
This luxurious beach front Villa is located on the South end of the exclusive Playa Flamingo, and is THE ONLY beach front private villa complex on the gorgeous white sands of Flamingo Beach, Costa Rica's premier beach. Located on Costa Rica's northwest Pacific coast, this villa is just a fifty-five minute drive from Liberia airport, and twenty-five minutes from Tamarindo's airport. The Palms is nestled among multi-million dollar private estates near the end of a secluded cove and is renowned for its soft white sand, and clear warm ocean water. Flamingo is also home to world class sports fishing. Located just offshore, the Catalina Islands offer outstanding scuba diving. Nearby Playa Grande offers some of Costa Rica's best surfing. Beautiful golf courses, a marina, and gourmet restaurants are all conveniently located nearby.
HOT TIPS: Bakery truck comes to The Palms every Tuesday and Friday. Try the banana cake—it's amazing! As for dinner, CocoLoco is 1 min away on the beach and is a MUST. We recommend the sizzling lava rock steak. Mmmmm.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a sofa bed.

Do not sleep on renting this place, it is amazing. Literally steps from the ocean which was so convenient if you forgot something in the villa. The pool gentlemen always remembered our names and where we liked to sit. Always greeting you with a smile and good morning. The sunsets were fabulous. The beach massages were also lovely. We ate at cocoloco the first night and were glad to have something close. We never visited for breakfast but did go to other places suggested by the host. Having the concierge was also nice and stress free. We went ziplining and rented jet ski's through them. The villa has everything you need and is fully stocked. The loft is an added bonus if you have children. We cannot wait to return!

We are a family of 4, kids ages 10 and 12, and our stay at The Palms was incredible. The unit itself is beautiful - clean, so comfortable and spacious, and had everything we could have needed. It is without a doubt the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. And The Palms property itself is amazing, the pool and beach are literally steps from the patio. We did jet skiing, a sunset cruise, and surfing lessons, all of which the concierge booked for us. The concierge also helped us rent a golf cart for the week which I was on the fence about initially but was so glad we had it (we did not rent a car). We took it to the grocery store, marina for dinner (we loved Surf Box), in town for ice cream and the kids loved riding around in it. Everyone at The Palms (and all of Playa Flamingo), from the concierge to the security guys (Jose and Felix are the best!) are so kind and helpful. And the hosts, Mike and Julia, were incredibly friendly and responsive, and made the whole experience smooth and easy. Can't say enough good things, we will definitely be back! (and if you are wanting to do a tour, we HIGHLY recommend Verny with Costa Rica Family Tours, we had the best time going with him to La Leona waterfall)

The Palms staff are top notch and have thought of everything. Highly recommend renting a golf cart, getting a beachside massage, and doing some tours with Dennis and his team. La Leona is a must for adventure seekers. We can’t wait to return to Villa 29. An unforgettable experience!!!

We had a great stay at The Palms. The hospitality of the owners and staff at the resort was amazing. The property is beautiful and steps to the beach. The condo was beautifully decorated and had a lot of amenities to cook and plenty of beds for our 3 kids and family. The beach massages were an added plus and made our trip relaxing. The daily cleaning services were also a nice touch. We would highly recommend this place if staying in Playa Flamingo.

Family Trip
We had a wonderful experience with The Palms. Michael was quick to respond whenever I had a question, and the Welcome Guide that he shared after we booked was extremely helpful. When we arrived, the staff at The Palms welcomed us, gave a brief introduction to the property, answered questions and made us feel welcome. We had ordered some groceries through the concierge ahead of our visit and everything was there for us when we arrived. The unit and the property were both better than the pictures showed. We are a family of four, with 2 adult children and we had plenty of space. The beach was beautiful and though public, never very busy by the property. We also enjoyed relaxing by the pool and drinks from the pool side bar. We were able to walk to a small grocery store and to restaurants with no problem. We would highly recommend staying here and hope to return someday!

Perfect Beach Getaway
This villa was perfect for two couples. It had everything we needed and the concierge team of The Palms was excellent. They made several reservations for us and checked in to see if we needed anything. All the staff was very attentive. The pool and beach were only steps from the back glass doors. Would definitely rent this villa again if we make it back to Playa Flamingo or the area.

Have to start off with the communication prior to the stay - Mike and Julia and then the concierge team at the palms were amazing to deal with. Our first time in Costa Rica so we had lots of questions and they were a pleasure to deal with - super attentive and offered lots of great suggestions on things to do etc.
The location, we travel quite a bit and the beach here is one of the best we have ever been on. We swam and lounged every day to what was 10 days of perfect weather.
The excursions booked by the concierge team did not disappoint - horseback riding on the beach, deep sea fishing and zip lines - the entire family had an amazing time.
The villa was the best part of the trip - steps to the beach - fully appointed with gorgeous views. We wished we could have stayed even one more day
Cannot wait to return if we are lucky enough.

Great Place - Right on the Beach
First family trip to Costa Rica and we wanted to stay at a "nice place on the beach". I did a lot of research and can tell you this is it. This place is literally a 50 foot walk out the patio door to a fabulous very large beach area. Also has a private pool right beside it as well. The best part it wasn't crowded - it felt like you had the place to like to your own with just a few others.
The condo itself is very nice and clean and has everything you would want for amenities. It is in a gated community with a large amount of staff, cleaning, and a 24 concierge and you simply message with anything you want--recommendations or restaurant reservations. Staff was great - pastry/bread truck came in one morning!
It's part of a larger condo complex and there were many other US/CAD families there vacationing with kids as well. We enjoyed meeting and talking with them. We have traveled a lot as family and we would definitely book this again.

My family and I enjoyed a beautiful week-long stay at the Palms Villa 29. The welcoming atmosphere and incredible views were second to none. From waking up to gentle ocean sounds and fresh Costa Rican coffee, to returning each day to a peaceful, climate controlled home, the villa met our needs and surpassed our expectations at every turn.
