Review of: Frijoles Locos Surf lessons
Both me and my wife are beginners surfers. Not only that but she is also a new swimmer and afraid of high waves. None of these were a problem though under Andy, the instructor, and the fun we had for 1,5h!! He explained the theory very well and in detail, he made us feel safe and guess what...10min into the water we were both catching waves! By the end of it my wife did not even remember that she was afraid :) well done to Andy and the team for the whole set up. Highly recommend it, either you are experienced or not!! …

Review of: Frijoles Locos Surf lessons
Can't say enough about this amazing place. Despite much confusion with trying to travel during Covid the concierge booking team was so accommodating in our constant changing schedule and plans. Once we arrived the entire team was nothing but fantastic with our family. They went above and beyond to take care of all our needs and set up all the little extras which made our trip so special. Eli was the perfect surf instructor and had both our 4 and 6 year old up and surfing on day 1. He even got them doing cool tricks and at one point had them surf the same board at the same time. How cool! We also stayed at one of the Frijoles condos and it was a perfect spot above the surf shop. The kids absolutely loved the pool and the unit was plenty spacious and very well maintained. Nice and quiet which made mornings and evenings on the large patio so enjoyable. Can't wait to come back. Honestly it was like leaving family!…

We had an incredible week in Playa Grande, thanks in great part to Frijoles Locos. They set our group of six up with a surf lesson, and amazingly got the inexperienced riding waves, and helped our more advanced surfers improve. Besides being knowledgeable, our surf instructors were a lot of fun. We also used their concierge services to book an estuary boat tour, help with airport transportation and a rental car, and even recommend a lunch spot when we visited Nicoya and Guaitil Village for a day trip. They were always responsive (even on a Sunday evening), and their information valuable.…

Andrew asked us what we hoped to get out of the private lesson. Within an hour,both my son and myself were up on our boards and catching our own waves as first time surfers. Totally would recommend it as it was super low stress.

Review of: Frijoles Locos Surf lessons
I took 4 private lessons on 4 consecutive days from Jost. He is an incredibly focused, attentive and skilled surf instructor. Prior to my lessons with him, I hadn’t been on a surfboard in 18 months due to the pandemic. With me as his student, he had the challenging task of helping me get back to the level I was at prior to the pandemic. Not only did he succeed in that, but with his coaching I was able to surf better than I ever had been before. Being in the waves with Jost was both fun and fulfilling.…
