  • This was the most interesting beaches I've been to. It may look like sand, but it's actually little bits of shells. Your feet may hurt, so definitely bring flip flops to this one. Don't let the shells steer you away - they are actually beautiful. This beach is popular among locals. #LifeAtExpedia

Great resort located on Flamingo Beach. The resort sits off the Pacific Ocean so the water is very beautiful and very rough. The property is beautiful, located in a beautiful small area that has a plaza right across the street and a Marina within walking distance. This is a great location for couples even though the resort is open to families.

We loved the vibe of this hotel, it’s a really nice location in Playa Flamingo where you can catch the perfect sunset. The staff is really kind and the rooms and facilities are nice. It’s also nice that you can walk to the beach, just in front of the hotel, and walk to restaurants.

The stay here was amazing! It was made incredibly clear over and over again throughout our stay that we had chosen the right place for our family. The beach was less than 50 feet from the property, and it was a BEAUTIFUL beach with gorgeous blue water, and the very best sunsets I have ever seen. The pool was beautiful as well. It was easy to get boogie boards, paddle boards, bikes, and towels whenever you needed them. The drinks at the poolside and all of the restaurants were great. My daughters enjoyed delicious mocktails throughout our stay. My girlfriend and I enjoyed some adult cocktails, beers, and wines. The staff were ALL very attentive, helpful, and always kind and patient.

Staff was great, resort and rooms were very clean. Food was good. Only draw back was that it sits on a public beach and there were no resort chairs unless you carried them there from the towel area. The beach itself was good not rocky and fairly clear. Didn’t see much in the water though.
