Most of the people have a shared idea about surf resorts. It is usually something like this: old beat up hostel, plenty of bunk beds crammed into a room, shared bathroom, shabby plates at the sink. Well that has all changed in recent years. A new category of surf travel has emerged. Costa Rica Vacations can show you the way to the best luxury surf trips.

We’ve selected 3 great luxury surf experiences to tempt you! Call us and we can plan your deluxe surf trip following your desires.

  1. Playgrounds yacht:

Playgrounds is a 51-foot luxury Power Cat yacht. Pete Arcieri is its host and captain.  Playgrounds features three bedrooms, salon, three bathrooms, lounging areas, modern appliances and full crew. It’s his expertise with tides, swells and breaks that makes this an extremely attractive surf option.

 

One advantage of sleeping on the boat is that it can reach great surf spots that are only available through the ocean. Playgrounds can take you to Witch’s Rock and Ollie’s Point. You can be at the break and you get in and out of the water before the crowds arrive.

 

Rise early, eat light, surf until it gets crowded, eat a big breakfast, and then travel to another secluded spot for more surfing. Return to the first spot for a sunset session after everyone else leaves.

 

“Every day is different from another, so let´s see what nature will offer us today and enjoy it as much as we can” says Captain Arcieri.
