Luxury Surf Resort for Couples in Costa Rica
7 nights all-inclusive — surf together, unwind together, reconnect
Just the 2 of You. Your Time.
The best couples trip isn't about doing more — it's about being present together in a place that takes care of everything else.
We see it every week: couples arrive not sure what to expect, and by Friday they're talking about when they can come back. Some are celebrating an anniversary or a birthday. Others just want a vacation that's more than sitting by a pool. What they all discover is that learning to surf together creates a kind of bonding that's hard to replicate with a candlelit dinner or a spa day.
At Kalon, every detail of your surf trip for couples is handled — from daily coaching on uncrowded breaks to gourmet three-course dinners, a mid-week massage, and private ocean-view suites on six acres of tropical jungle. This is an all-inclusive luxury surf camp where the only thing you need to plan is your flight.
Your Week Together
A luxury surf trip designed around what couples actually want — adventure in the morning, romance in the evening, and zero planning in between.

Privacy Meets Paradise
Adventures Between Sessions
Intimate & Private
Surfing has a quality that most couples activities don't: it gives you shared time and personal space at the same time. You're in the water together, but you're each catching your own waves. You're not competing — you're just happy for each other. And when you're done for the day, you come back to a place that feels like it's yours.
Each of our six ocean-view rooms is 450 square feet with a private balcony, rain shower, and king-size bed. You'll have plenty of space and privacy after a full day of surfing — and the balcony overlooking the jungle is where most couples end up spending their evenings.
With just 10 accommodations on six acres and around 20 guests per week, the property stays quiet and intimate. The beaches that surround Kalon are always uncrowded. We've had couples who came early in their relationship and returned years later as a family — watching them come back with their kids and surf together is one of the most rewarding things about running this place. Whether you're taking surf lessons together or joining a yoga session overlooking the Pacific, the week is designed to feel personalized to you. Between sessions, some couples pick up surfing and mindfulness techniques from our coaches — simple breathing and focus practices that work both on the water and off.
A Typical Day Together
Mornings start with breakfast overlooking the Pacific, then down to the beach for your surf session. Your coaches are in the water with you the entire time for three to four hours of coaching, video, and waves. Midday is yours: most couples grab a hammock or sit by the infinity pool and just talk, something you rarely make time for at home. Afternoons bring video analysis of your surf (this is where the real improvement happens), followed by yoga on the open-air deck or a couples massage. If you're new to surfing, our coaches specialize in teaching couples side by side — it's one of the most popular parts of the week. In the evenings, settle into a gourmet three-course dinner while the sun drops into the Pacific. Most couples tell us this is the part of the day they look forward to most.
Optional Activities (Or Just Relax?)
Learning to surf together is sure to bring you and your partner closer together. Wednesday is a rest day, and most couples use it to explore. You won't need to rent a car or plan a thing. Kalon sits on Costa Rica's southern Pacific coast, known for being one of the most loved all-inclusive surf destinations — warm water year-round, uncrowded breaks, and the kind of laid-back atmosphere that couples gravitate toward. It's what makes Kalon one of the best surf camps in Costa Rica for couples who want more than just waves.
If you're both new to the sport, our coaches will have you standing up within the first session — we've put together a guide on the basics of surfing at a Costa Rica surf camp to help you prepare before you arrive.
Go horseback riding at sunset, zip-line through the rainforest, hike to waterfalls, ride ATVs on mountain trails, or visit the nearby town of Dominical. Our team handles all the logistics; just tell us what sounds good and we take care of the rest.
Gourmet All Inclusive
The food at Kalon is consistently one of the highest-rated parts of the experience. Everything is included: breakfast, lunch, a three-course gourmet dinner every evening, plus snacks, fresh juice, beer, and wine throughout the day. You never have to think about where to eat or what it costs. If you like to arrive feeling prepared, here's our guide to the basics of surfing at a Costa Rica surf camp.
Our chef sources organic ingredients from our own gardens and local providers. Mornings start with Gallo Pinto, fresh house-made bread, tropical fruits, and gourmet coffee. Lunch is served on the beach or in the dining room. And dinner is where things get special: a three-course meal from fresh local ingredients, served dinner-party style at one long, beautifully set table.
If you have dietary preferences or restrictions, our chef accommodates them easily. And your mid-week massage is included too. The combination of surfing and deep tissue recovery is hard to beat, and most couples end up booking additional sessions because it feels that good.
Imagine the two of you a year from now — still talking about the sunsets, the waves, and that one perfect ride you caught together.
Plan Your Couples TripEverything Is Included
From airport to airport — your only job is to show up together.
You don't need to worry about getting around. We pick you up from the San José airport and bring you straight to the resort. When you want to get to a surf spot, tour, or nearby town, a member of our team drives you there and picks you up when you're ready.
No rental car, no taxis, no crowded buses. Enjoy your couples surf trip worrying about nothing but having a good time together.
See It for Yourself
A week at Kalon Surf is hard to put into words. This might help.
What Couples Say
With just 10 accommodations on six private acres, Kalon stays quiet and intimate — the kind of place where you actually exhale. Your week is fully taken care of: 3:1 surf coaching, gourmet three-course dinners, and a mid-week massage so you both feel great getting back in the water.
Check AvailabilityCommon Questions
We're at completely different levels — will that work?
Not at all — it's actually one of the best setups. With a 3:1 guest-to-coach ratio, each of you gets individual attention regardless of where you're starting. What we see most weeks is that by Friday, the gap has narrowed enough that couples can actually surf together. That's a pretty meaningful thing to take home from a vacation.
What if one of us doesn't want to surf?
That's completely fine. There's yoga on the open-air deck, a massage included in your stay, an infinity pool overlooking the Pacific, and hammock at the beach. We can also arrange tours on your rest day — waterfalls, horseback riding, zip-lining. That said, most reluctant partners end up trying it and can't stop smiling afterward.
Do we need to be fit or experienced?
No. The majority of our guests are complete beginners, and we welcome couples of all ages and fitness levels. Our coaches adapt every session to you. You'll be standing up on your first day and riding green waves by midweek.
What does a typical day look like?
Breakfast overlooking the Pacific. Then three to four hours of surf coaching on the beach — your coaches are in the water with you the entire time. Midday is yours: pool, hammock, or just talking without distractions. Afternoons bring video analysis of your morning surf, yoga, or a massage. Evenings are a three-course gourmet dinner served dinner-party style — one long, beautifully set table, good wine, and conversation that lingers after sunset. Wednesday is a rest day for exploring.
Is Kalon a good choice for a honeymoon or anniversary?
Absolutely. With just 10 accommodations on six acres — ocean-view rooms, junior suites with private jacuzzis, a jungle bungalow, and a villa with its own plunge pool — the property feels like it's yours. Around 20 guests per week means you'll know everyone by name. Add a complimentary massage, gourmet dinners every evening, and an intimate setting that's nothing like a big resort, and it's hard to beat.
What's included in the price?
Everything. Airport pickup and return from SJO, five days of personalized surf coaching with video analysis, all meals — including lunch prepared by our chefs at the beach — snacks, beer and wine, one massage each, yoga sessions, and all surf equipment. The only thing you need to arrange is your flight.
Can we do activities together on the rest day?
Yes, and you don't need to plan a thing. Our team arranges everything — horseback riding to a waterfall, zip-lining through the rainforest, ATV trails, or a visit to the nearby town of Dominical. Just tell us what sounds good and we handle the logistics.
What if we've never surfed before?
You're in good company — most of our guests haven't. Our coaching method is designed to get you standing on day one and riding unbroken green waves by midweek. Every session includes in-water coaching and same-day video review so you can see exactly what to improve. Couples who arrive as complete beginners regularly leave with the skills to keep surfing together at home.
Learn to Surf: An Investment for Life
One of the most common questions we get from couples is: "we're at completely different levels, will that be a problem?" The short answer is no. In fact, it's one of the best setups. With a 3:1 guest-to-coach ratio, each of you gets individual attention regardless of where you're starting. What often happens is that by the end of the week, the gap has narrowed enough that you can actually surf together at home. That's a pretty meaningful thing to take home from a vacation.
We also welcome families at our luxury family surf camp, and the ones who come tend to love the same things you do: great waves, great food, and a pace that lets you actually unwind.
