NIHI Sumba
Indonesia – tropical rainforests, picturesque rice terraces, and of course stunning beaches. The island nation is known for its unique culture, impressive volcanic landscapes, and magnificent temple sites, but also for its numerous yoga and surf retreats. This is also the case with NIHI Sumba, located on the eponymous island approximately 400 km east of Bali. The luxury resort is a true paradise for surfers and anyone wanting to become one. World-famous for its unique left-breaking waves, the surf spots for professionals are limited to ensure an authentic surfing experience. Beginners and intermediate surfers can book surf lessons, and the nearby Coconut Grove bay with its white sand and smaller waves is ideal for your first attempts on the board. True freedom, subtle luxury, and unforgettable memories – isn't that what the perfect surf holiday looks like?
One&Only Palmilla
Mexico is known for its incredible beaches with fantastic point breaks and barreling beach breaks. With almost 1,000 km of coastline, it is the perfect country for surfers of all levels: numerous beginner-friendly beaches await you, but there are also some challenging spots that will test adrenaline seekers. Another peculiarity? Mexico is one of the few surf destinations with consistently strong waves year-round. The One&Only Palmilla Resort harmonizes the contrasts of its surroundings with its location right on the beach, between desert and sea. The local nature and culture surprise with their versatility: impressive waterfalls, deserted deserts, magical tropical beaches, snow-capped volcanoes, and giant pine forests are lined up alongside stylish resorts and mysterious cultural sites. Here on the Mexican peninsula of Baja California, both relaxation seekers and adventurers will get their money's worth. The resort impresses with its elegant, modern-Mexican design and unrestricted sea view – perfect for your next surf vacation.
Four Seasons Resort Costa Rica
Tropical climate and extraordinary waves – no wonder Costa Rica is so popular among surfers! With over 300 sandy beaches, numerous surf camps, warm weather, and consistent winds, the country offers something for every surf level – whether you are a complete beginner, an advanced surfer, or an absolute pro. The surf spots here are not as crowded as in other tropical destinations, yet they are just as good and make surfer dreams come true. The modern elegant Four Seasons on the Peninsula Papagayo overlooks the Pacific Ocean from its hillside location and is the perfect place for a tropical retreat. In addition to fantastic surf spots, you can also enjoy adventures like zip-lining or hiking on a volcano, and at the end of an eventful day, you can relax by the pools or indulge yourself at the spa in the resort. The experience of 'Pura Vida' at the Four Seasons Papagayo is something you should not miss!
