I was looking for a break away to somewhere tropical, natural and with option to Surf some great waves in Costa Rica. The Zopilote Surf Camp Costa Rica delivered surpassing any expectation and left me with great memories. Upon leaving San Jose city you take a bus across land, through jungle and including a ferry crossing that really sets the... more

Spent a week at Zopilote recently with my boyfriend and had an amazing time. I would highly recommend it, but want to give some detail about the accomodations which the other reviews haven't really talked about and their website doesn't really cover. The accomodations are pretty basic, a notch above camping. You will have pillows and a mattress and mosquito... more

You get to be out of the main surf towns while still able to connect to “the rest of the world” if you want to in Santa Teresa. The house... more

I stayed at Zopilote for a week in mid July and had a fantastic time! I was a single traveler and there were 5 other single travelers there from around the world. Everyone was friendly and the owners make great breakfasts and dinners. Plus Santa Teresa and Mal Pais are pretty close. I had a truck rental so it was... more

I spent a week earlier this year at zopilote and welcomed 2008 there... it is hands down, one of the best new year celebrations I ever had. The people at Zopilote are awesome (very friendly and very helpful - always available to answer questions about surfing/activities around the area/best drinking spots/etc), the food is delicious and the guests staying there... more

Zopilote Surf Camp has a fun, laid back atmosphere with wonderful hosts and the opportunity to meet all kinds of interesting people from around the world. There is fun beach break surf right out in front of the camp and a few other spots within walking distance or a short drive away. Simon, the chef and an excellent surfer, cooks... more
