This family run house is right next to the ocean, with fantastic views of the stormy winter surf. The rooms were clean and warm. We had early morning breakfast on the deck by the ocean. The fishing village was sleepy at the time we visited, with no one around, giving us enough time to enjoy the peace and quiet. The... More

I went to San Bartolo to take a Surfing Lesson with Antonio Otello, the founder of the Penascal Surf Hotel this June. I showed up just in time for the ASP women's world tour which included viewing a session from the Peruvian world champion Sofia Mulanovich. After watching her heat Antonio took me out in the surf at Penascal. After... More

I can't praise this hostal enough. What a wonderful experience we had. The view was beautiful and the service was great. Antonio is an excellent host and his wife cooks up some tasty meals. We had breakfast on our veranda every morning..... I miss those breakfast rolls! Lunch and dinner were served in their dining room. I could go on... More

What this hotel may lack in amenities it MORE than makes up for in the wonderful hospitality of it's owners Antonio and his wife Fiorela. We wanted to try surfing during our trip to Peru and found Penascal Surf Hotel online. It was very easy to make arrangements, Antonio responded promptly and answered all our questions. It's located about an... More

Stayed here at the end of March, having sought some beach time and surf instruction in Peru. San Bartolo is not a happening metropolis, by any stretch of the imagination. Antonio's a great host, though, making this a great spot to surf and relax. The family provides three meals a day (all delicious and fresh), and Antonio has surf equipment... More
