Beautiful oasis by the most stunning beach
Pros: Sophie the French owner created a beautiful garden with lovely cabanas. It was peaceful and idyllic. Breakfast was very nice. Pool was lovely. She upgraded us which was very kind. The outdoor bathroom was very romantic. The most beautiful beach Playa Grande was 5 mins by car. We also loved playa conchal in the morning 20.mins away. Lolas cafe was great too about 1 hour away. She gave us good advice. We saw monkeys play by the pool up on the trees which was magical. Loved it.
Cons: Nothing.

Awesome little oases
Pros: The staff was super friendly and helpful. The pool is super refreshing after a hot day. And make sure to ask Diego about surf lessons, he had us two newbies standing and riding waves in no time.
Cons: .

Pros: It is one of those places where you can't point a single thing wrong. It's a perfect combination between nature and modern sustainable comfort. From the cabana to the outdoor shower, the experience is simply breathtaking. One morning, while we were heading out for breakfast, we had some monkeys in the trees right above us. And they also have a cat named Bagheera.
Cons: If I could leave a suggestion, despite having the doors and windows with mosquito nets, I would wrap the rooms's floors and corners with mosquito nets as well. We were visited by some bugs and ants. Someone more sensible might feel bothered.

Pros: Charming accommodations, lovely gardens, free coffee, kitchen available for use, very close to the beach. We also spent 2 nights in a casita, so both the tents on platforms and the casita were great!! We loved it here, would love to come back and will definitely recommend to our friends!!

The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly the glamping tent. It was uniquely beautiful, providing a perfect blend of comfort and nature. Overall, it was an outstanding experience, and we highly recommend Flor y Bambu to anyone looking for a memorable getaway.

Unique stay at Glamping hotel Flor y Bambu, loved it.
Pros: I was a little apprehensive at first, to sleep in a tent in the tropics with all mosquitos etc but I experienced no issue at all. The tents were clean, a fan was running to keep temperature under control and keep mosquitos away. In fact, I did not experience any mosquitos at all, even not while sitting around the lovely pool or central areas. The garden allows for lot’s of privacy. I also liked the open air shower behind each tent. Breakfast was relatively simple, but happy that the cook even showed up because I was the only guest for 2 nights. :-). The tents were also provided with facilities like a fridge to store cold drinks in and other perishables. I Liked the call of the monkey’s early morning. Playa Grande is definitely a much more quieter area than Tamarindo’s beach (much more entertainment there), so if you came to find a quiet place; this is the beach where you would want to stay.
Cons: The road leading to the property is a little off the main road, approx 500m, with lot’s of potholes. Could use some backfilling from time to time. The hotel could provide for all-day coffee/ tea instead of only during breakfast.
