Description
Costa Rica surf and yoga escape
Come and experience this cool Costa Rica surf and yoga escape hosted on one of the best beaches in the world. Based in Santa Teresa, ranked number one beach in Central America on TripAdvisor, Believe Surf and Yoga has put together this fabulous customised package.
Break away from your daily routine and try something new. Costa Rica, a tropical paradise, is the perfect location to refresh and connect with the awesome power of nature.
Come and feel empowered to believe in yourself while you learn to surf. Surfing is a powerful tool to connect yourself to the sea and its vibrant energy. Balance your surfing with yoga and connect with your inner self, bringing together mind and body.
Our surf lessons and yoga sessions are lead by fully certified, experienced instructors. Join them in the stunning setting of Costa Rica in a beautiful beachside lodge.
Believe. It is our lemma, our motto. What drove us here. Believe in the innate potential we have when we are connected with ourselves and nature. It is more than a beach holiday or a trip across great landscapes. Let yourself go along the whole journey:
Surfing, enjoying the fantastic beaches of Santa Teresa and the wonderful nature around, while nurturing our body and mind consciousness, through yoga and healthy food habits.
A brief experience may leave a significant trace in our life. And, without noticing, the smallest detail changes our mind. This is the cornerstone of our project; what we seek for, every day.
Yoga
We offer both surfing and yoga. In this package, you get two surf lessons with our experienced instructors and three yoga sessions at our partner, Nautilus Yoga Studio.
We set you up for success and you will be provided with a surfboard, rash guard, hydration and transportation to the best spots.
The best breaks are based on the tides and the weather conditions and our experienced team know when and where to go for excellent surfing. There are always a maximum of three surfers to an instructor, so you will have a personal experience and be well-attended to.
We empower our guests to practise yoga daily and to take the habit with them when they leave. The three yoga classes included can be taken at 9 am or 6 pm at Nautilus Yoga Studio, just a few minutes from the lodge. The Funky Monkey Lodge also has a yoga studio of its own, so you can do self practice whenever you wish.
Cuisine
We will provide you with a delicious, healthy breakfast each day with choices of granola and yoghurt, eggs and toast, cheese croissant and anything else that the chef has prepared that morning.
There are always plenty of fresh fruits and American coffee. We will also serve you one other meal a day with plenty of options available to various dietary requirements.
Accommodation
Our Partner Lodge, Funky Monkey is just steps away from the beach and close to everything you need. The super cool, laid back lodge has a swimming pool, yoga studio and a chill out area.
The Funky Restaurant serves up delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner from 7am until 10pm. There are also weekly specials from our chef such as sushi night, catch of the day and barbecues, providing you with tasty food and great socializing.
The sunset view apartment comes with a double bed, air conditioning and a private veranda with great sunsets. The bungalow in nature has a double bed, ceiling fans, small kitchenette and mini fridge.

What past guests have said
“Martin and Lucho at Believe are a dynamic duo, who are not only exceptional at what they do but are also great guys who have a genuine love of the pura vida! They helped make our experience in Santa Teresa as authentic as possible, recommending restaurants, bars, outdoor activities, etc, and were available to us any time we needed them, both before and during our trip. We fell in love with surfing in great part due to Lucho’s personable teaching style and extensive experience with Santa Teresa’s surf. Believe’s customized service model and blend of surf, yoga, and outdoor activities was exactly what we were looking for. We would recommend Believe and Santa Teresa more generally to anyone looking for an authentic, adventurous trip in a stunning location! Thanks again Martin and Lucho!”. Stefania and Nik
How to get here
The best option is to arrive at San Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) in San Jose, the capital city of Costa Rica. From SJO you have more options of land shuttles and local flights to make it to Santa Teresa or anywhere in Costa Rica. The second option is to fly to Liberia (LIR), in the northwest region of Costa Rica, one hour away from Tamarindo and six hours away from Santa Teresa.
Before booking make sure you have planned your logistics from your arrival airport to Santa Teresa. Avoid misunderstanding and incurring in costs that you can avoid if you plan accordingly.
Plan your arrival flight as early as possible, in order to make it to the land shuttles or local flights. Otherwise it may be necessary to schedule a night in SJO, as there are no shuttles nor flights during the evening (i.e. after 3 pm). Similarly, your departure flight should be planned the latest you can in your departing day so that you can leave your hotel in Santa Teresa early in the morning and arrive early in the afternoon to SJO for your international flight. Otherwise you should plan your last night in San Jose and not in Santa Teresa.
You can book all your local flights and land transportation with us. Let us know your flight schedule and we will help you plan your logistics in the most cost and time efficient way.
