About Casa del Sol Montañita
Casa del Sol is a beachfront surf and yoga guesthouse set on the E15 coastal highway near La Punta, directly across from what it calls Ecuador's best surf break. The property combines relaxed accommodation with a full surf school and daily wellness programming, making it a favourite base for beginner and intermediate surfers who want to roll out of bed and straight into the water.
The surf school runs 90-minute lessons with bilingual instructors for around $35, keeps class sizes small for safety, and rents boards by the two-hour block or full day for every skill level. Multi-day surf packages range from three- and five-day options up to a seven-night Surf & Stay retreat that folds in five lessons, yoga, massage, meals and accommodation. Lesson scheduling flexes with the tide and wave conditions, and the point and beach breaks out front produce rideable waves year-round.
Guests choose from shared dorms, a teak A-frame, and private queen and king rooms with air conditioning, and the on-site team can arrange excursions like whale watching, snorkelling, horseback riding and paragliding. With daily yoga, massage and dining on the property, Casa del Sol leans into the mellow, wellness-minded side of Montañita's surf scene.
