Frequently Asked Questions

Absolutely! Complete beginners are welcome and make up a big part of our retreats. Our experienced coaches keep groups small and meet you at your level, with personalized instruction that helps you build skills and confidence at your own pace.

Absolutely. We welcome surfers of all levels. Experienced surfers receive personalized coaching with a maximum 2:1 student-to-instructor ratio outside, individual goal setting, video analysis, and opportunities to surf different breaks when conditions allow.

Absolutely! Around 30% of our guests arrive solo, so you definitely won’t be the only one. Our retreats are intentionally small and community-focused, making it easy to connect with everyone from day one. We don’t match solo travelers with roommates, so guests traveling on their own reserve a private room.

Absolutely! Our Coed retreats are perfect for couples who want to share an unforgettable Costa Rica adventure together. You don’t need to be at the same surfing level—our coaches work with each guest at their individual level and goals.

Our Coed retreats bring together adults of different ages, backgrounds, and surfing abilities. What everyone shares is a love of adventure, a desire to experience Costa Rica, and a willingness to have a whole lot of fun along the way.

Not at all—this is your vacation! We encourage you to join in as much as you’d like, but everything is optional. Surf, practice yoga, head out on an adventure, relax by the pool, enjoy some extra spa time, or simply kick back and soak up paradise. It’s your week to enjoy your way.

Your all-inclusive retreat includes luxury accommodations, small-group surf coaching, yoga, a one-hour massage, surf equipment, video analysis, transportation to surf breaks, and three healthy, gourmet meals each day—including meals enjoyed at some of our favorite restaurants around town. You’ll also have plenty of time to relax or add optional Costa Rica adventures to your week.

Absolutely. We’re happy to accommodate vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and many other dietary needs. Just let us know before you arrive so our team can make sure you’re well taken care of throughout the week.

No two days are exactly alike! Our schedule flows with the surf conditions, yoga, meals, optional adventures, and a little Pura Vida spontaneity. You can participate in as much—or as little—as you like.

There’s plenty to explore beyond surfing! Depending on availability and conditions, guests can add adventures such as horseback riding on the beach, bioluminescence tours, snorkeling, ziplining, waterfall and jungle hikes, ATV tours, and more. Our team is happy to help you arrange your adventures. Optional activities are booked separately and are not included in the retreat package.

WAVE REVIEWS

“I really wanted to thank you all for everything you put into PVA. In some ways, it seems like such a small and trivial thing to learn how to pop up onto a surfboard and catch a wave, but it has been a life-changing experience. Of course, the beautiful sunsets, healthy meals, yoga, and good vibes of good people helped too…”
