Vermietung am Strand in Playa Flamingo: The Palms Condo 8

It is a beautiful location. I would say it didn’t really sleep six. The loft bed is very tight and Stuffy and we had lizards on the bed when we arrived. . We were a little frustrated when we were welcomed to the property. We were told we could have a ball in the kid pool. The following day, a staff member yelled at my kids, and we didn’t understand what he was saying. And then another lady told us that we couldn’t have it. And we just said that we are told we could and she said she would check and We soon got a message on vrbo that they would charge us 250 if we used it in the kid pool. Instead of just coming and calming explaining it they threaten us with a charge. I also felt like they constantly were doing yard work, mowing the lawn, and it was quite loud during the day time when most people were relaxing by the pool. The gym is also dated and don’t have enough outlets to keep the machines on. And the internet isn’t great. I’m not usually a complainer, this is a very expensive vacation. We should’ve been treated a little bit better. We had a great time overall.

We had a lovely time staying in this condo. Location could not be beat and having a bartender on property was a nice surprise. Great service and response time from the management company on anything we requested or inquired about as well. The kitchen was well stocked with any pans, baking dishes, Tupperware, etc that was needed throughout our stay Our only complaint would be the second bedroom that has the loft sleeping space does not truly sleep more than one (or two if sharing a bed) person. The loft sleeping space is really unusable as the ceiling is so low that my daughter hit her head multiple times just trying to grab a pillow. We ended up using the sofa as a sleeping space, so it wasn't a huge deal.

The property was very nice; however the property management, Special Places of Costa Rica, was disappointing. If I owned this property I would switch management places. But for those wishing to rent this property it is very nice, I just wouldn’t suggest getting any addition add ons from the property management because they have little to no communication confirming your appointments, excursions and golf cart rentals got totally messed up. If we come back I will be securing those options from another place.
