It’s a gorgeous spot, and it’s a short walk to Flamingo’s downtown (though it’s a steep uphill getting back). Flamingo is one of Costa Rica’s most beautiful coastal towns, given its hilly topography, two peninsulas and two beaches. A new marina is under construction on the north side of town that is expected to make Flamingo a major magnet for sportfishing and a popular stopover for yachts from North America. Just about every kind of adventure imaginable is available in or near Flamingo, including ziplining, ATV tours, horseback riding, fishing, scuba diving, sunset cruises and much more. Flamingo is less than an hour from the international airport in Liberia, and within a short drive of a string of stunning beaches to the north and south. And all the conveniences you might need are nearby, including grocery stores, pharmacies, medical clinics, banks and gas stations.

The Neighborhood: Oceanica is a luxury high-rise condominium on Flamingo’s exclusive North Ridge with staggering views of both Playa Potrero and Playa Flamingo. It’s a short walk from here to both of these beaches and the conveniences of downtown Flamingo, which is home to gourmet restaurants, bars and shops. The new Marina Flamingo, also a short walk downhill, offers a state-of-the-art facility for mooring yachts and fishing boats, plus a large commercial plaza with fine restaurants, high-end stores and more. Oceanica is in the heart of the action, with a beautiful pool surrounded by palm trees and flowering plants, always offering a stunning view of the ocean. 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.
