Surf Shack: 5 min to Beach/5 min to Waterfall: Great Wi-Fi - Sleeps 5

Welcome to our Surf Shack Bungalow in beautiful Dominicalito, Costa Rica. Our 2 bedroom, 1 bath home is in a prime time location, right in between Dominical which is only a 5 min drive, & Uvita which is a 15 min. drive south. The Poza Azul Waterfall is only a quick 3 min drive through the neighborhood.

The 2-1 Surf Shack has 2 Queen bedrooms that look out into nature, 1 full bathroom with a stand up shower, a living room with a futon & Smart TV, a kitchen with dishes, pots & pans, utensils...perfect for making a home cooked meal. The refrigerator & stove allowing for easy cooking at home. The Wi-Fi is strong, making this the perfect spot for all remote workers :)

There is a large security gate at the entrance of the property, making sure your vehicles are stored safely. Pull through and you'll see the Surf Shack nestled under the many beautiful trees. Sometimes our special guest, the white faced capuchin monkeys, are in the trees to meet you when you check-in. Don't worry, they're just curious & cute.

Our home is centrally located to many fun & convenient attractions:
• Poza Azul - Waterfall, 3 min by car; has rope swing & pool for swimming
• Dominicalito Beach - 5 min by car; beginner surfers & beautiful views
• Kunjani Cafe - 5 min by car; amazing coffee & breakfast
• The (Yoga) Shala - 5 min by car: daily yoga classes in the jungle
• La Parcela Restaurant - 5 min by car; gorgeous views, delicious food, great cocktails
• Dominical Beach - 10 min by car; beach vendors, advanced surfers, restaurants/bars - cute hippie town
• Uvita - 15 min by car; waterfalls, shopping, restaurants/bars, Whale's Tail National Park, scuba diving, and fishing
• There are 2 small stores within walking distance. Tienda Poza Azul is directly across the street, with another small tienda only 1 block away

The Surf Shack is the perfect place to come and get an authentic experience of Costa Rica. This place has the perfect mixture of ex-pats & locals! If you're into surfing, yoga, or just adventuring and exploring then this is the perfect place for YOU!!
