"We really had a great time with our family! The staff were wonderful and friendly, and the food was tasty with a nice variety. The property is a little dated, but it was more than adequate for our stay. The big crabs scared us at first, but we eventually got used to them! The swimming pool, the bar and beach service were both really great. One thing that pleasantly surprised me was the gym—it had all the equipment you need for a good workout. The music and entertainment were also great, although they should be a little more mindful of some of the songs they play since this is a child-friendly resort. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again!"

"It’s honestly hard to put into words how much we enjoyed our stay at Casa Frisons. The pictures are beautiful, but I’m not sure they fully do the house or the views justice. The property is spectacular, the ocean views are breathtaking, and by the end of our trip we were already talking about coming back to Playa Flamingo and staying in this exact house again.The house is huge and perfect for a family or group. We spent a lot of our downtime in the large open living area and outside around the pool. Every bedroom has its own private patio overlooking the ocean, several have their own living space, and there is also a separate guest house.The private beach access is a really nice bonus and would be great for a family to spend a good part of the day. The walk down feels like you’re walking through a national park. Flamingo Beach is also a great option if you’re looking for a bigger, more traditional beach.As amazing as the house was, the people made the stay even better. Bilitis was incredible, extremely responsive and helped us with excursions, changing plans and countless questions. Benjamin was equally helpful and always seemed to be nearby when we needed anything.Five stars without hesitation. One travel tip: if you’re coming from Liberia, I highly recommend the Monkey Trail if it’s not rainy season. It can save you a lot of time getting to Playa Flamingo. We would absolutely stay here again."
