Funky Monkey Surf & Yoga Lodge
Rustic surf-and-yoga lodging with its own pool and hot tub
About this stay
Funky Monkey covers surf and yoga under one rustic, unpolished roof: classes in both are offered on site, backed up by an outdoor pool, a hot tub and a full bar and restaurant, four minutes by taxi from Santa Teresa Travels and a four-minute walk to Soda el artesano Santa Teresa for a quick meal. Free breakfast and full-service laundry suit longer surf trips generating a steady pile of wet gear, and room service covers the days no one wants to leave the pool deck at all. The 27-minute Cobano airport shuttle keeps transfers manageable for guests on both ends of a trip. It is a straightforward stay rather than a styled one, and that plainness is consistent with almost everything else on this stretch of coast.
- On-site surf and yoga classes
- Pool and hot tub
- Rustic, unpolished atmosphere
Our take
I recommend Funky Monkey to travelers who want surf and yoga classes on site, a pool and hot tub to recover, and breakfast included, four minutes by taxi from Santa Teresa. The style is rustic and relaxed, with a bar and restaurant for evenings. If you expect polished rooms and hotel-style service, I would choose another address.
- ✓Sign up for a yoga class the morning after a late surf session, it is offered on site and requires little effort
- ✓Use the hot tub after evening sessions, it sits right off the pool deck and eases sore shoulders quickly
- ✓Walk to Soda el artesano Santa Teresa for a fast lunch between classes, four minutes each way from the lodge
Why we love it

Surf and yoga classes are given on site, and an outdoor pool, a hot tub, a bar and a restaurant fill the rest of the day. Breakfast and an airport shuttle are included. The atmosphere is rustic and unpolished, near the beach and about four minutes by taxi from town, so it suits relaxed families.
