Getting Around:
Our Villa is situated 1 hour from Liberia International Airport and most guests fly into and out of Liberia International Airport (LIR). At customs you will need a return flight and where you will be staying. You are staying at The Palms Private Residences in Playa Flamingo. After customs is baggage collection and finally a baggage scanner where you will be asked to throw out any fresh fruit and vegetables that are not allowed in the country. We only recommend a driver pick you up. You can have a car or a golf cart brought to the Villa directly saving you time and often money too! Your driver will pick you up at the main entrance to the airport. Typically they are holding a sign with your name on it. Again, we do not recommend renting a car at the airport.
Other Things to Note:
Before you pack, know that it is hot, you are staying on the beach (think humidity!), and the vibe is casual. The Pacific North Coast of Costa Rica is rich with beaches and sprinkled with all the wonders of Guanacaste: fruit trees, howler monkeys, and hot weather.
What clothing to pack. This area of Costa Rica has 2 seasons.
Dry season: November - April where barely a sprinkle will be felt.
Rainy season: May - October where there are hard rains that pass, often only for a few hours.
We recommend bringing $200-$500 hundred US dollars. Most places accept credit cards and the local banks allow you to withdraw money from your accounts. The local currency is USD and CRC (Costa Rican Colon).
Interaction with Guests:
You have 24/7 concierge services included with your stay. Our concierge team is there to help with excursions, bookings of restaurants, help with the common space use of the property, ordering more beach towels, booking daily cleaning, etc. They can help with A LOT of your questions on-site.
