Based on a current report, the free wifi is very slow! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Laugh.gif" alt="" />
Do you know what kind of room you have? Most of the rooms at Flamingo are studios, but they have a full kitchen, including a fridge with ice and water, dishwasher, full stove, etc., and a living room couch and chair, but all in one room. All have been recently refurbished, in kind of 'hotel normal' decor. Doesn't look like the Caribbean to me, could be anywhere, but there are granite countertops in the kitchen and bathroom. Again, most of the rooms are in the one main building, but I've never stayed in one of the villas, or the 2 BR units, so don't really know anything about them. In way high season, sometimes the parking is a bit tight, but hopefully by April you shouldn't have a problem parking. The beach is pretty decent, shared with the Simpson Bay Resort, and you have a nice view there. If you know what your actual room number is, some others here can tell you where it is exactly. Toppers by the Sea is at the resort, not my personal favorite of someplace to eat, but there are a ton of other places to eat within walking or very close driving distance. The Red Piano and the casino at SBR (Hollywood) are right across the street from Flamingo.
