Sonia and I took a hand full of our guests to Dominical Surf School for lessons while on a yoga retreat. We had the pleasure of working with Maria at the front desk and instruction from Gonzalo, Jose, and Mario. The instruction was clear, concise, and easy to understand and made us all feel safe to get out into the water, hop on our boards, and surf! We all stood up on our boards and it was an amazing feeling. The instructors were also soooo encouraging and motivating. It was so good that a few of us went back a couple days later to take another lesson! Thank you Maria for your warmth, kindness, and helping us with arranging our lessons. Thank you Gonza for your expertise in ocean safety, learning about rip tides, and how to pop up on the board. Thank you Jose and Mario for your enthusiasm, encouragement, and kindness in and out of the water. Thank you for Dominical Surf School helping all us noobs fall in love with surfing. We will definitely be back again! - Sonia & Meghan with Essenem Journeys Yoga & Adventure Retreats
I can’t say enough about this amazing experience! My son & I took a lesson with Miguel and he was able to dust off 25 years of cobwebs from my last surfing experience and teach my son to enjoy the sport! We had tried a few years ago in Maui but the waves were WAY too big that day & the camp should never have taken us out. I truly appreciated Dominical Surf School’s looking at the tides and waves prior to scheduling our lesson time in order to get the most reasonable waves for our experience. Miguel was patient and kind and supportive. My son said it was one of the main highlights of our trip to Costa Rica! Thank you, Miguel & team for making the whole experience so fabulous!!!!
We had a great time much better than expected! Debbie and her team are such wonderful, warm-hearted people who always want to support and encourage you. Thank you so much for everything, I will never forget my time with you.
