Day by day
How the journey unfolds
Day 1
Arrival and the first quiet evening
Met at the terminal, driven south past the river mouths, and into the house before sunset. Nothing scheduled: a swim, a walk to the sand, and dinner already prepared.
Chef dinner on the terrace as the surf comes up.
Day 2
First surf read
Your guide meets you at dawn to read the bank and match the session to your level. Two hours in the water, breakfast after, then an open afternoon.
Day 3
Waterfall and rainforest
Inland to a private waterfall before the day heats up, with a slow lunch under the canopy on the way back down to the coast.
Day 4
Spa pavilion day
A full reset: paired treatments in the pavilion, breathwork if you want it, and a lighter menu built around the morning market run.
Day 5
Dawn session, then the boat
Early surf while the wind is still offshore, then a private sunset sail off Hermosa with drinks aboard and the coastline going gold behind you.
Late supper back at the villa, table set outside.
Day 6
Your day, exactly as you want it
Held deliberately open. Most guests choose a second surf, a horseback ride along the beach, or nothing at all beyond the pool and a book.
Day 7
Slow morning and departure
Breakfast at your own pace, late checkout where the owner allows it, and a private transfer timed to your flight.
