    We had an exceptional time at the surf camp. The secluded location, just a short walk from the beach, allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature. The staff, especially Maria, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was unforgettable. The surfing experience was top-notch, thanks to the incredible waves. we highly recommend this place for a memorable vacation.

    The staff at Mal Pais Surf Camp, especially Maria, went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. We were delighted to find that the camp is just a short 5-minute walk from the beautiful Santa Teresa beach, providing the perfect setting for surfing and relaxation. The camp's location strikes the perfect balance between being close to central Santa Teresa and offering a secluded and serene jungle atmosphere.

    Super close to the beach in a nice quiet area. the private rooms have warm showers and they provide you with a bar of soap. the staff is very helpful in helping you book tours and they have a convenient tab system for payments.

    The rooms are not as advertised, with shared dormitory-style accommodations instead of private rooms as described.

    I absolutely loved staying at the surf camp in Santa Teresa. During the rainy season, the place wasn't crowded at all, and I had the chance to fully enjoy the private villas with their beautiful patios. The common kitchen was well-equipped, and the swimming pool was a great place to relax. The highlight for me was the stunning park surrounding the camp, where I saw howler monkeys, iguanas, squirrels. And thanks to the helpful staff, I had an amazing surfing class with Richard on Playa Hermosa. it was an exceptional experience.

    We loved the surf camp's private villas with patios, common kitchen, swimming pool, and beautiful park with wildlife. the surfing class arranged by the host was recommended, and the stunning sunsets were a highlight.

    Felt very secure, no reason to complain.

    We had a fantastic time at the surf camp! As beginner surfers, we took a class with Richard on playa Hermosa, recommended by host Douglas. The facilities were perfect, from our private villas with patios to the beautiful park with howler monkeys and hummingbirds. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the common areas like the kitchen and swimming pool were great. The location was peaceful, yet within walking distance to the town and beach. We loved the sense of community and the overall vibe of the place.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.
