“Not very happy”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

Not thrilled with their service, place looks like new however it took too long to get a room that had been booked long before. The views are phenomenal and the mojito reception was fun. When nice downstairs got so loud the only respknse from the front desk was that it was a weeknd rutine and we could actually join the party, (hmm) Sad to say that their housekeeping staff barely speaks any English, they should be trained.

Room Tip: request something away from their pool patio if you are here to rest, if your purpose is to party th...

Hello ferchonyc61,
Thank you for caring enough to let us know how we are doing. I am happy to hear you enjoyed our Mojito reception and phenomenal views; however, It certainly looks like we missed the mark on even the most basic service standards. Please know your review will be discussed with our leadership team and staff. I would like the opportunity to chat with you and see if we can regain your trust. Feel free to reach out to me via email if you would like to discuss. Thank you again for your candid remarks. msmiley@benchmarkmanagement.com

“Nice for quick weekend”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We decided to take a quick couple of nights not too far from home. Best rate we found was AAA. Were initially given a room with view of roof and air-conditioning units but a call to front desk and an ocean front room was found. This hotel is very clean with marble thru out and very good quality towels and linens. Weather coolish and drizzling off and on but that didn't stop us from the heated pool and the great hot tub right on the beach. The Wave Restaurant had a great Sunday brunch. Service was fine. Outdoor bar not so well attended due to weather but bar tender very pleasant. Spa also clean with lovely decor and music. Massage by Maria excellent. Shopping right across the street. Plan to return this summer with other family members. A good value.

Room Tip: Ask up front for ocean view.

“Best Boutique Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 February 2012

Spent 4 fantastic days here and had the best time ever . Our suite was fabulous and had a direct ocean view. Loved the pool and hot tub. Best of all was the breakfast served in Waves, the eggs benedict were perfection and were as delicious as they were beautiful, could of been on any magazine cover. Our server, Michelle,was absolutely fantastic and her beautiful smile was the perfect start to our day. From check in to check out our time spent here was amazing.

Room Tip: We had the suite on the oceanfront with two bathrooms which made things alot easier.

“Nice surprise on Vero Beach at Costa d'Este”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

We enjoyed ourselves at this beautiful boutique hotel right on the beach. Our king size room had a full view of the Atlantic ocean. Waking up to the sunrise and hearing the surf was breathtaking. The room was spacious and very clean. Staff is very knowledgeable and friendly. No coffee makers in the room, but free coffee was offered in the restaurant during the morning hours. Dinner at the Wave Kitchen was very good. We both had very good Cuban dishes from the Estefan Cookbook. Looking forward to our return.

Room Tip: Rooms direct ocean front have best views of beach.

Dear TadTad:

We are very grateful for your post and for the 5***** rating you gave Costa d'Este. I must agree with you that the view from the Ocean Front rooms is definitely breathtaking. Someone added to say that the room was so close to the ocean, they thought they could just jump from their balcony (of course they were joking but trying to make a point) right into the water.

I hope you took advantage of the Kayaking services we have to offer. A trip to the Brecknoshire (a sunken ship) a couple of hundred yards off the shore line would have made your trip even more exciting (unless the water was rough), but may be the next trip.

We look forward to your return - please call us with the dates and ask for the special repeat guest rate -

All the Best,

Charles

“Quiet weekend getaway”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

If you're looking for a quiet weekend getaway with style then try the Costa d'Este in Vero Beach. Owned by Gloria & Emelio Estefan it is a lovely remake of an old beach front hotel. Pretty much the only contemporary place in Vero. Large well appointed rooms, spa, pool overlooking the beach. The restaurant has great breakfasts and a super "early bird" dinner on several nights. Staff is very friendly and full of suggestions for the area (though not really a lot to do in Vero); if you want to chill this is a good place to do it! Several good restaurants within walking distance, so you could park the car and never drive until you leave. You could even walk to the Museum. If you live within a couple of hours drive it's definitely worth a weekend.

Room Tip: All rooms seem to have some ocean view. Some will look across pool courtyard to other rooms and the...

Dear Acalnek:

Thank you for the 4**** rating in your post. Our staff will be very pleased to hear this. I am glad you enjoyed your stay, and had a quiet R&R time. For more exciting time next visit, you may want to try Kayaking with Scot, right on porperty. You can visit the Breckonshire (a sunken ship) only a couple of hundred yards away off the shore line, and snorkle around the wreckage where you can see all sorts of sea creatures. Sand, sun and quiet time is definitely what we offer here at Costa d'Este. We hope to see you back real soon.

All the Best,

Charles
