The surf camp is surrounded by lush gardens with ocean view featuring a swimming pool and it provides stunning views of the Atlantic. The villa has two to three bed rooms with bathroom ensuite or on the aisle (shared by two rooms). As soon as you arrive, you will feel at home.
All rooms in the Surf Mansion are brand new and individually furbished. All rooms have a private bathroom (two of the rooms have a bathroom on the opposite side of the aisle). On the property of the Surf Mansion, there is also our second accommodation the Cottage. The cottage was only partly renovated and there are three twin rooms and one double room. There is only one bathroom and up to eight guests will share it (one toilet, one shower).

Surfschool in Portugal – surf coaching is our most comprehensive program. Whether you are a beginner, an intermediate or an advanced surfer – our progressive surf lessons will match your abilities. The aim of the surf coaching is to take your surfing here on the Algarve to the next level as quickly as possible with hands on instruction.
Surf, Eat, Sleep – Repeat.
Inhale, exhale and activate your muscles before surfing or join one of our classes after the surf to relax and stretch your body.
Surfers take a lot of pounding that by the end of a day in the water, leaves them with tight, sore muscles. Tense muscles can have a domino effect, spreading through the entire body and affecting nerves, muscles, and bones. Our surfing massages directly address this problem by easing muscles and enabling the body to maintain a healthy posture and balance.
