Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I had such an amazing time at the Surf Cascais Villa. The instructors are the best in the world! I surfed with Nic, Lulu and Pedro, and they all have such good energy, cheer you on, create an amazing atmosphere, but never forget to stop teaching. They give you personal advice and help you so you will be standing upright on a surfboard in no time.
The Villa itself is really nice. Very clean. Friendly staff. Great vibes. Breakfast is ok, beds are medium-hard. Family dinner and BBQ were fantastic: great food made by and for wonderful people.
I can think of only one downside, and that's you'll become addicted to surfing and you'll want to come back as soon as you can :-) .

The instructors really care for good technique and care for everyone individually. The villa was really nice to live in. The other guests were very nice. Special events like family dinner and BBQ night were fun! Yoga was so enjoyable and relaxing!
I felt so comfortable the whole week that I was there. I loved the experience.
Thanks for making my vacations unforgettable :)
Someone still owes me 10 Euro though ;)

The surf camp exceeded all our expectations! It has been our (we travelled as 4 girls) first time surfing and so we did not really know what to expect ... also the camp is (compared to others) relatively cheap. The villa was used like a hostel and people acted accordingly friendly & openminded. We joined all together at a BBQ on our last night which was a highlight itself! The rooms are all clean and modern, the surf instructors motivated and rich in experience. The common area including kitchen & bathrooms were always nice and the staff there (who are people from other countries, mostly volunteers) were part of the guests basically! We had an amazing time ther and it got captured even by a professional photographer who also did some videocoaching with us. We will come back & recommend it to everyone, no matter what the niveau of surfing is. Thanks, Surf Cascais! <3

What 's not to love about Surf Cascais! Everyone is so nice, the villa is just amazing, the surf instructors got me already standing on my board on day one and I could already go to the green waves on day three. In between surf lessons I did an awesome e-biking experience to Sintra with Bica. The whole crew is just the best of the best and the bbq and family dinners in the villa are delicious. I will definitely come back and can recommend this place to everyone who loves laid back vibes and active holidays.

Hello there,
it was the perfect trip to learn how to surf for me. I really liked the yoga classes and vibe from stuff, surf instructors and the other guests from the villa. Our Room was unfornately to small for six people. I really looking forward to do it again.

They have a very good methodology and a group of teachers that make it very easy. The atmosphere in the village is very good, everyone's mood is respected.
Without a doubt, if you want to learn it is a very good place to go.

How young do you teach kids? I have an 11 year old that would love to learn to surf! He's an excellent swimmer (on a swim team, swimming 4000-5000 meters per day), and enjoys the ocean as well.

Hi Florin, Thanks for your message! We teach kids since 4 years old. However we old give group lessons for older than 13years old. So, in this case, would need to be a private lesson. Please email us for more information. Cheers, David Moore
