Sunset villa, is absolutely amazing!! It’s better than the pictures even show. We went as a family for my father’s 80th bday. We had 11 total in our party and there was plenty of room to spare. The properties views and pool are incredible. The beach is very secluded being at the end of the bay and we enjoyed many hours enjoying beach time. I would highly recommend Playa Flamingo and Sunset Villa!! It’s close to great restaurants and the supermarket… very convenient!! You can’t go to coco loco too much!! Amigos is very close as well and great. Yesenia, the property manager was fantastic and the owner Dietmar was a pleasure to work with. We can’t wait to return and will rent this beautiful home again!!

Lovely home with incredible views! Plenty of rooms for large group, nice infinity edge pool. Yersinia was wonderful and kept everything very clean. The stairs to the beach access are not for the faint of heart, though. I counted >160 steps, some very steep. We found it easier to rent golfcarts and drive (<5 mins) to the beach. If you do that I highly recommend renting beach setup from Alvaro at the Beach Concierge to make a super low stress beach day.

We had great family time at Sunset Villa. Beautiful views & private/safe property. Our crew was 3 families: One couple, a second couple with a 7-year old, & a third couple with 3 & 5 year olds. The set-up of the property is pretty dis-jointed. It’s made up of the main house (2 bedrooms – 1 with a king and 1 with two twins), a bungalow (bed/bath detached from house), the casita (bed/bath/living room/kitchen detached from house), and then two satellite beds/baths located over the garages. Aside from the 2 bedrooms in the main house, there wasn’t another great setup for parents/kids to have their own bedrooms & still be close to each other. For our crew, we pushed the two twins together & all 3 kids shared that room, so that there was one set of parents close by across the hall. The other two couples were in the bungalow & the casita. We, thankfully, did not need either of the two bed/baths over the garages. One of them smelled so musty we couldn’t breathe & the other didn’t smell great either. There’s a beautiful sunset rooftop over the 1 that didn’t smell as bad. All bedrooms were spacious w/king beds (minus the two twins), & all had private/en-suite bathrooms! The pool was great – we swam even in the rain. It’s deep, take caution with kiddos. The jacuzzi is not heated but was nice for the smaller kiddos. The property needs some basic TLC. For example, the kitchen had a very loose faucet handle – something that could easily be tightened down in between renters. Safety-wise, the pictures show handrails down to the beach. In person, you can see where handrails used to be, but the lower half of the stairs no longer have handrails. One of the kids tripped going down the stairs, and rolled a number of stairs before being able to stop. Fortunately came away with just a scrape on the leg, but the fall could’ve been worse & could’ve been prevented with handrails in place. In addition, the stairs are in need of pressure-washing. In dry weather, they’re manageable, however if they’re wet for any reason, they are very slippery. We counted them one day-there are close to 200 stairs. We knew there were a lot, so that wasn’t an issue, but they need safety measures in place. I realize this is the first non-5 star review, so don’t take this submission lightly. Some of our group feels that 4 stars is generous. What we agreed on is that it used to be a 5-star place, but has not been maintained properly. A little TLC & it could be back to 5-stars.

We loved staying at this house with all of my family!! Separate bedrooms for everyone, loved the patio and the pool!! Lots of steps to the private beach but it was worth it!! Very close to restaurants and stores!! I recommend renting a golf cart or 2 depending on the size of your party!!

This house was absolutely amazing. Some of the best views in Playa Flamingo and a good mix of privacy and security. The home is big, bright, clean, and welcoming. The owner was extremely accommodating and the staff was great. There is no other way that I’ll visit Costa Rica again. Will absolutely come back to this villa.

We had a great time with our family at Sunset Villa. Even though it rained a good amount we were still able to enjoy some great time together. The local food is incredible. Make sure to check out Coco Loco. The house was beautiful, great view and plenty of room for all of us. The foliage and scenery from the pool view was beautiful!

Start with the fact that the property was exactly as presented in the listing. The lush setting, the gorgeous coastline view and the ideal amenities made our family reunion vacation absolutely wonderful. Dietmar as host was a very good communicator and Yahaira as caretaker was diligent, pleasant and very helpful. The individual bedrooms and beds were comfortable and the bathrooms elegant and delightful in the shower enclosures, water pressure and temperature - way beyond top hotel quality! But the great room, kitchen, patio space and infinity pool tied the complex together into one magical community enironment for group actiities and fun. Walking distance grocery, restaurants, vehicle rental and tour operators made things all the more accommodating. We had every convenience (that we Americans appreciate) at hand, from gas grill to garage to secure access to the beach, and then some. I cannot think of what was missing from our Costa Rican getaway - it was simply ideal and perfect for our family group (from ages 16mos to 78yrs)! Bravo Dietmar - you have made every penny of our vacation expense a terrific value. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

The house is even better in person. It was perfect for our family. It had everything we needed. We relaxed in the pool and enjoyed the view. It was like a five star resort where we were the only guests.

The house is just beautiful. It is even bigger than we anticipated. The sunsets are just spectacular. The beach was great. We loved having a golf cart to zip back and forth to the house, but some of us preferred to get a workout by taking the stairs. The host was very responsive. We would definitely stay here again. One of our top rental experiences. Close proximity to a market and we really enjoyed the food at Coco Loco.

We had an amazing week in Flamingo Beach. The home was a perfect layout for our group. It was well stocked and very clean. I would recommend renting a golf cart to get around the area. Great Home, Great Location and Great Hosts!!!
