Beaches & Surf

Beaches
As Mal Pais is completely untouched by large scale developments, this allows the jungle to spill onto the beaches, forming one of the most dramatically beautiful landscapes imaginably.

In Mal Pais you’ll find deserted white sanded beaches, providing you with your own private stretch of Pacific Coastline.

You can either lie out on the soft sand and work on your tan or if it’s too hot you can retreat under the jungle canopy overhead.

The beaches run for miles along our neighboring beaches through Playa Carmen, Santa Teresa, and Playa Hermosa, making it ideal for a brisk or leisurely walk.

If that’s doesn’t interest you, you might want to go snorkeling for tropical fish at one of the reefs near Cabo Blanco Reserve.

As for the photos you see here on our website, these aren’t stock photos they’re all taken of beaches in Mal Pais and are located no more than a 10 minute or less walk from the hotel.

Surf
The surfing here is of a legendary status and is regarded as one of the best surf breaks in Costa Rica. Finding a secluded break isn’t hard with miles and miles of glorious unspoiled coastline.

The surf breaks are long even beach breaks with sandy bottoms making the beaches here a great and safe place to learn to surf. Also the rip tides in this part of Costa Rica are less powerful than in other surf spots, which is comforting to know for beginners.

As for the wave type, they’re hollow and peaky and more importantly, consistent throughout the year. Reef and point breaks can also be found close by, so come on, ride the wave!

Wildlife & Gardens

Wildlife
The jungle here in Mal país is bustling with life; the amount of visual wildlife is truly extraordinary. Many of our guests have commented that they’ve seen more animals here than on trips to the Amazon.

In the hotel we get daily visits from howler monkeys, white face monkeys, racoons, coatis, ant eaters, squirrels, iguanas, geckos, agoutis, opossums, crabs, humming birds, parrots, eagles, toucans, butterflies, frogs, and the ever working leaf cutting ants!

It doesn’t end there; out at sea you can observe dolphins, manta rays, turtles, and even whales depending on the time of year.

So when you get here make sure to keep your eyes peeled!

Hotel Gardens

Dubbed “The Garden of Eden” by some of our guests due to the wealth of diverse species of tropical plants found within.

We have many types of fruit trees and flowers, hibiscus, orchids, birds of paradise, and ginger flowers.

The wide range of colours found in the gardens exotic flowers attracts many species of butterflies and humming birds, creating a very calming environment for you to enjoy.

At the heart of the garden you’ll find a gigantic almond tree which provides a welcoming shade over the pool at mid day and in the evening you’ll find your senses awoken by the heavenly scent of the jasmine trees wafting through the breeze.
