Common Questions
You'll Feel Right at Home
I’ve never surfed before — is Kalon right for me?
Yes. Many guests arrive without prior surf experience, and many arrive with some experience. We coach in small groups with a 3:1 guest-to-coach ratio, focusing on strong foundations that help everyone progress safely and confidently during the week.
I’ve surfed before — will I still benefit from the coaching?
Yes. Our coaching emphasizes solid fundamentals — technique, positioning, and understanding the ocean. This approach supports meaningful improvement, whether you’re building consistency or refining your surfing.
Do I need any preparation before arriving?
No specific fitness level is required. Surfing is highly individual, and progress looks different for everyone. Our coaches adjust the pace and approach so guests can learn comfortably and feel confident in the water. That said, if you'd like to prepare, anything that builds balance and core stability — yoga, pilates, swimming — will serve you well in the waves.
What are the evenings like?
Kalon is designed for guests who value comfort, quality, and balance. It’s social and welcoming, but never a party scene. Evenings revolve around good food, easy conversation, and unwinding after a full day — relaxed, comfortable, and unforced.
The Experience
What exactly is included?
Your stay includes 7 nights accommodation, all meals, snacks, and drinks, surf coaching and equipment, airport transfers from San José (SJO), video analysis and photos, yoga sessions, and one massage.
What does a typical day look like?
Mornings begin at an easy pace with Costa Rican breakfast and freshly brewed local coffee. Surf coaching follows, then time to relax — at the pool, on the beach, in a yoga class, or simply enjoying the surroundings. Evenings bring sunset views and beautifully prepared dinners to close the day.
What should I pack?
Bring what feels comfortable. Swimwear, light clothing, and something easy for evenings are perfect. We provide surf equipment and sunblock. If you plan to join an excursion, comfortable walking shoes are useful.
What kind of atmosphere can I expect?
Kalon is calm, welcoming, and intentionally unhurried. Guests come to be active during the day, well cared for, and comfortable at all times — with space to relax, connect, or simply enjoy being away.

A Luxury Surf Resort Like No Other
A private estate, not a hotel. Kalon Surf sits on a 7.9-acre estate above the Pacific with just 10 accommodations — six luxury ocean-view rooms, two junior suites with private jacuzzis, a jungle bungalow, and a villa with its own plunge pool. With a maximum of 20 guests per week, the experience is intimate and unhurried. You'll share long dinners and surf sessions with a small group of like-minded travelers — couples, solo adventurers, families with older kids — and return to your own private space whenever you want. It's the kind of luxury surf resort in Costa Rica where everything feels personal, because it is. If you're weighing your options, we've put together a comparison of Costa Rica luxury surf resorts vs boutique hotels to help you decide what's right for your trip.
All-inclusive from airport to airport. We pick you up from San José International Airport (SJO) in one of our private SUVs for a scenic 3-hour coastal drive to Dominical. From that moment, everything is taken care of: five days of professional surf coaching with video analysis, Firewire surfboards matched to your level, yoga three times a week, pool technique sessions, three gourmet meals a day, and drinks throughout the week. The only extras are optional tours and additional massages. Our coaches work at a 3:1 guest-to-coach ratio, guiding you to uncrowded breaks that most visitors to Costa Rica never find — whether you've never stood on a board or you're refining your cutback.
Year-round conditions on the South Pacific coast. Located near Dominical at the gateway to the Osa Peninsula — which National Geographic has called one of the most biologically intense places on earth — Kalon welcomes guests year-round at near-full capacity. Dry season (December–April) brings consistent northwest swells and clear skies. The green season (May–November) delivers warmer south swells, lighter crowds, and a local phenomenon called veranito that produces near-dry-season conditions through June to August. Water temperatures sit around 78°F year-round, so you'll never need a wetsuit. We also recommend guests consider travel insurance with Cancel for Any Reason coverage for peace of mind — our team can point you in the right direction when you book.
