A lovely place to stay at Playa Flamingo
We stayed for a week. The location is beautiful, peaceful and very well-maintained. The landscaping, flowers, greenery and birds are a highlight. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was spacious, quiet and comfortable. The Playa Flamingo Beach is exceptionally beautiful but not within a comfortable walking distance so your own or paid transportation is needed.

We expressed our concern with the facility of their inability to offer the accommodation as advertised in Expedia. first the room bathroom was not functional, could not be flushed and the shower was not working. Also the tv in the room was not functional. We had booked two nights and ended up checking out following morning and did lay out these concerns with front desk.. The facility manager did not even want to talk to us. The rate for the facility is a -2. The 2nd night should be refunded as the facility accommodation was sub standards

Nice room, quiet and safe
This was a hotel in a gated community, so we were given gate opener to come and go which was great! It felt safe. Parking in front of building. Room was large/spacious, very clean, wall unit with shelves for clothes/articles but didn't have clothes hanger. coffee maker/fridge/TV. Room had plenty of light. Small two-person sofa which we easily turned around to view TV. Beds were comfy and clean. Bathroom was nice, but not enough of lighting. However, outside of bath was a good mirror with good lighting. Shower head was one that rained down from ceiling, not an adjustable head but still ok. Nice place with lovely surroundings and pool, very quiet. It was on main road so not hard to find, however, if you want something to do in the evening and don't want to drive, especially in fall and winter months where sun goes down early then suggest finding something closer in. There is a beach nearby and Playa Flamingo beach wasn't far.or hard to get to. Only problem was not being close to anything you could walk to at night. Pool was open late so you can go there, also had a small balcony with a table and chairs. Staff was very nice. We did not eat breakfast so can't comment on food.

Easy access and the grounds are amazing. Housekeeping cleans your unit every day. Our apartment was right next to the pool but the noise from the kids playing did not teach the bedroom. Areas around the pool cleaned daily and the pool was sparkling. Did not smell of chlorine as most pools. The staff waited for us to check in as we got a flat tire on our way there. Very kind and helped us book covid tests before we returned back to US. I could not have been more pleased with Casas del Toro and would love to return someday.

The facility walkways and grounds were beautiful. The check is process could be a bit more effective by having a standard set of items to go over with the guest and summary sheet or even something in the room - such as what the key fob is for, the Wi-Fi password, breakfast hours. Our check in seemed a bit rushed and did not cover the above items effectively.

The apartments 12 and 14 are great with a beautiful decoration, only a few issues with ants in the room at apartment 14, but the staff did everything possible exterminate them.

Estuvo bien...
Asistí con mi familia, en general estuvo bien, a pesar de que están haciendo trabajos de remodelación, lo que notamos fue que en las fotografías del hotel se aprecian dos piscinas y en el hotel solamente hay una, el desayuno es bastante sencillo con pocas opciones, hay que tomar en cuenta que asistimos en temporada baja y esto suele alterar el funcionamiento del lugar, cuando fueron a realizar la limpieza de la habitación omitieron reponer los artículos de uso básico, por lo cual tuvimos que salir a adquirirlos a un supermercado, oportunidades de mejora...
