The Costa Rican coastline
Guests will surf Costa Rica’s northern Pacific coast, from Playa Grande to Marbella, a region known for its consistent swell, diverse wave types, and vibrant surf culture. From the mellow, beginner-friendly waves of Tamarindo and Avellanas to the more advanced breaks at Playa Grande and Marbella, the area offers ideal conditions for all levels. With warm water, offshore winds, and a rich local atmosphere, it’s the perfect setting for surf progression and an immersive pura vida experience.
Far from the beaten path
Welcome to your home away from home. These bungalows are built in an original circular shape and have a traditional palm-thatched roof. All are equipped with air conditioning, a large wooden terrace with a seating area, two hammocks, and an outdoor shower. Each suite bungalow features a king-size bed and two single beds. The bathroom has hot water. Guests also have access to free Wi-Fi, a coffeemaker, a small refrigerator, and a laptop-sized safe.
We've got you covered
From airport pick-up/drop-off to equipment (boards, rash tops, wetsuits) to a photographer for surf analysis, we’ll set up everything so you can focus on catching waves and relaxing between sessions.
