Local hospitality is at its finest with Christina and Mike at Surf Inn Hermosa. All I can say is they make it happen...they are walking encyclopedias of local info. Most importantly for us: where to surf for our abilities, and what break is best and when given weather and tide conditions. Straight A's across the board, and with some real... More

This was my first time to CR. We booked a 10-day "Hard-Core" surf package with the Surf Inn in October. All I can say is that my expectations were exceeded in every way. Christina was awesome to work with, and set up all of our accommodations. We were picked up at the airport in San Jose and taken to our... More

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful five-night stay at Surf Inn Hermosa. Upon arriving, we were met by the wonderful Marysol who got us settled in then introduced us to Christina, the friendly innkeeper. Christina was fabulous and sat down with the two of us in their lovely top-floor outdoor dining/party area to help us plan out our stay.... More

If you're looking for a laid back "tranquil" vacation spot this is it. Christina was great to deal w/ setting up the trip for us who had never been to Costa and didn't know the ropes yet....The primary purpose of our trip was so my boyfriend could surf, but he agreed to a few short excursions which Christina easily set...

Loved it the first time, so we stopped back for a night before heading out to the Nicoya peninsula. The location is key. Playa Hermosa is a mellow little strip - removed from all the noise and chaos of Jaco, but with it's own quiet scene. There's still a bar (The Backyard), restaurants, yoga classes and great cheap massages, so... More
