Three nights and four days at Casa Camaleón in Costa Rica, accompanied by Shane Dorian, all inclusive (except airfare and transfers) for $48.000, according to the exotic experiences website Robb report.

It is the new experience promoted by the establishment that describes it as follows:

“If you’re a surfer of any caliber, you know Shane Dorian. The Hawaii-based world champion and head coach of the 2024 U.S. Olympic surfing team is one of the world’s best big wave surfers — that is, swells that reach 20 feet in height or higher. For four nights and three days, he’ll be your personal instructor, teaching you his techniques through hands-on lessons in the waters off the coast of Costa Rica’s Nicoya Peninsula.”

And they add: “This region is one of the world’s Blue Zones, renowned for the longevity of its inhabitants thanks to their active and healthy lifestyles; in Costa Rica, it’s as much about the mind as it is the body, about staying positive and relaxed in a permanent state of pura vida. That’s all part of the experience at Casa Camaleón at Las Catalinas resort, a 21-villa property that will be your base for this adventure. The modern rooms, each at least 720 square feet, have their own private infinity pool. You can relax there between surf sessions or choose to explore on land: The resort has a 2250-foot zipline through the jungle, as well as a herd of horses to ride on the beach. Even better, consider a hike through the rainforests of the nearby Tenorio volcano via its three hanging bridges.

When you need a break from such efforts, there is a spa on site, or you can practice stretching yoga and meditation outdoors amid the tropical breeze,” she concludes.

21 rooms for $48.000 equals $1.008.000 for four days.
