After winding your way along the Central Pacific coast from San Jose, you come upon a majestic place. Costa Rica’s Southern Zone is famous amongst nature and adventure seekers. National Geographic has said that within the southern most section of the area, contains 5{6c03b7e8ab86e24299b434fcd1cb244f4935da7c2b864437b082eaacd32bc815} of the world’s flora and fauna. From jaguars to humpback whales, if you’re looking for an experience you wont soon forget…you’ve come to the right place.
The area is famous amongst surf circles as having some of the most consistant waves in the world. And at the top you’ll find Dominical.
Dominical is a small surf village nestled at the foot of the Talamanca Mountain range. Actually it is often called “Where the mountains meet the sea”.
While on your surf adventure with Sunset Surf, you’ll enjoy some of the finest accommodations in the area. We offer two choices (depending on your package) that offer everything an inspiring or seasoned surf could ask for – close proximity to the beach being #1.
Domilocos is a newer construction hotel situated only steps from the Dominical surf. Featuring a chill’in pool and locally renown tapas restaurant, Domilocos is the epitome of affordable accommodations with a jam-packed amenities package to boot.
Included with your stay are air-conditioned rooms, access to the sitting pool, buffet breakfast including fresh local fruits and cordial hosts Michael and Vivian. Did we mention it’s literally steps to the beach???
Our second option is for the higher end packages featuring the ChiMaya spa and relaxation retreat.
ChiMaya defines relaxation in Costa Rica. Situated a few minutes south of Dominical, Chimaya offers an array of spa and massage therapies, including Swedish and Thai, hot stone, Watsu, physio-emotional release therapy, organic body scrubs, volcanic mud wraps, and a variety more.
Chef Eugene is a top-quality organic specialized chef who will offer up the finest in organic cooking using only the best, hand-picked, Costa Rican ingredients. Not to mention the incredibly scrumptious seafood caught fresh daily.
Your hosts at Spa Chimaya are Caroline and Eugene. Longtime surfers and devotees of a healthy lifestyle, they work together with Mother Nature to bring relaxation and harmony to ensure that the peace found in this beautiful place stays with you long after you have returned home.
Your third option, and most popular, is accomodations at Costa Paraiso.
From the moment you enter the gates of Costa Paraiso, you know that you’ve arrived at a destination of unparalleled natural beauty. Towering waves thunder against a volcanic rocky peninsula, launching 30-foot flumes of water into the sky – so close, you can almost feel the spray. Wide miles of pristine beach beckon for discovery and exploration just steps away.
Costa Paraiso is a coastal paradise for guests seeking recreation and relaxation in spectacular natural surroundings. Situated a short 3min drive from Dominical, Costa Paraiso defines tranquility in Costa Rica’s most desirable location that National Geographic calls, “one of the most biodiverse destinations on the planet!”
So with all that being said, you can rest assured that when you book your Costa Rica surf camp experience with Sunset Surf, you will be in good hands and will be shown the time of your life.
