Summary:
Welcome to The Palms Mansion, our most spacious property in The Palms, an exclusive and secluded beachfront condo community on the peaceful south end of Playa Flamingo. This luxury four-bedroom condo is comprised of two beautifully furnished split-level units — The Palms #8 and The Palms #9 — which, combined with a sliding door through the living room, comfortably sleeps 12 guests.
The Space:
Each side of The Palms Mansion features an open-concept ground floor with a living room, a kitchen, and a dining room. The kitchens each have granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and high-end appliances, including an oven, stovetop, refrigerator, and dishwasher. When the units are combined, the chic, modern living spaces merge into one, offering plenty of room for socializing and relaxing with your entire group.
Upstairs, each side of The Palms Mansion has two bedrooms — a master and a second bedroom. Each primary bedroom has a king-sized bed, high ceilings, a private, furnished balcony with oceanfront views, a flat-screen TV, and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower and tub. The second bedrooms each have a queen bed and double bed, as well as a private bathroom and balcony. All the bedrooms are beautifully furnished with plush mattresses and linens, elegant decor, and a clean, modern design.
The Palms Mansion is situated on the pristine shoreline of Playa Flamingo, making it easy to enjoy oceanfront views from the comfort of your living room. The stacking glass doors on each side of the unit lead to a shaded patio, which is furnished with an outdoor furniture set and dining table and features a beautifully manicured walkway through a garden to the community’s swimming pools and the beach.
During your stay at The Palms Mansion, you’ll have access to all the community’s resort-style amenities, including a fitness center, complimentary kayaks and paddle boards, gated parking, 24/7 security, and two sparkling swimming pools — a wading pool and an infinity pool that overlooks the ocean!

The Neighborhood:
The Palms is a luxury gated community in a class of its own, and is among the most exclusive vacation lodging available anywhere near Flamingo. Just a few steps from the beautiful Flamingo Beach, The Palms combines spectacular views with 24/7 security and a delightful sense of privacy.
Flamingo is a high-end beachfront community notable for its dazzling ocean views and the beautiful, hilly peninsula that juts out into the Pacific, separating Playa Potrero from Playa Flamingo.
Flamingo is home to a wide array of stunning homes and vacation rentals, as well as humbler lodging options, and it has restaurants, grocery stores, banks and other conveniences.
A brand-new, state-of-the-art marina opened to the public in 2022, with slips for yachts and fishing boats, condos for rent and all kinds of shops and restaurants. Other major developments here include the 360 Splendor del Pacifico luxury condominiums on top of the North Ridge, the Margaritaville Beach Resort, and the upscale Mar Vista housing development, where there’s an excellent private school called La Paz.
Good restaurants in town include the Coco Loco, a beachfront eatery known for its coconut drinks and standout cuisine; Marie’s, a reliable standard with a long and enticing menu; Angelina’s, featuring fine Italian dining in an elegant environment; and several options at the Margaritaville, including the 5 O’Clock Somewhere Bar & Grill.
Flamingo was largely developed by foreigners, and it lacks the traditional Costa Rican downtown with a soccer field plaza, church and school. The heart of town is an upscale commercial plaza with stone steps, fountains, restaurants and shops. Farther away on the road to Brasilito, you’ll find smaller restaurants, hotels, banks, hardware stores and the Super Massai grocery store.
Flamingo is more or less the centerpiece of a beautiful coastline stretching from the Reserva Conchal resort in the south to the Las Catalinas resort in the north, with the more traditional Costa Rican towns of Brasilito and Potrero in between. Flamingo is within easy striking distance of several beaches, including Conchal, Flamingo, Potrero, Penca, Prieta, Pan de Azucar and Danta.
Getting Around:
Our agents will be happy to assist you with renting a car, giving you the freedom to explore the area where you want, when you want. For short drives to nearby towns or beaches, golf carts are another popular mode of transportation. You can also rent a bicycle to ride around in town or beyond.
We can arrange transfers to and from the airport. Rental cars can also be delivered to your property at no additional cost, allowing you to relax and enjoy the scenery as our private van drives you here from the airport.
Taxis are available but can be a bit hard to find. Many locals use buses to get around, though there are a limited number of routes and times of day when you can catch them. Private shuttles can be a great option for traveling to nearby destinations, and many tour companies offer transportation to and from the tour. Our information brochure will provide you with useful information on local transportation options and points of interest, as well as contact information for taxis and shuttles.
Other Things to Note:
Special Places of Costa Rica is committed to protecting our properties and keeping up-to-date with short-term rental regulations, which is why you will be asked to complete our independent verification. Before your stay begins, you will need to verify your details with us to complete your booking. You will be contacted via email and/or text to complete the verification. You will also be given the choice between paying a refundable deposit or buying a non-refundable damage waiver. We suggest you buy the damage waiver as this protects you in case you cause accidental damage during a booking.
