"Balsa Surf Camp is like staying with family! It has a wonderful atmosphere, and the location is nice and quiet within a very easy walk to town. For a surfing adventure, everything is at your fingertips and the team are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I thoroughly enjoyed the daily yoga, thank you to the wonderful instructor Darcy Lynch. I will visit Montanita again, and I wouldn't think of staying anywhere other than Balsa. "

"There was no hot water, no real curtains in the room. Being a girl alone this was scary at night. my friend actually broke her foot trying to walk down the steep hill. I am happy to provide proof. I didn’t have a blanket. No food or drinks service were provided during the week, only on the weekend. My room smelled like mold. I felt unsafe because the lock wasn’t secure. "

"Room and property was as described. Breakfast of bread, yogurt, bananas or apples , scrambled eggs and coffee was adequate. Pool was nice except the water was very cloudy. A short walk down some stairs to the beach which is what we really went there for."

"Beautiful "

"Close to the action without being in it. Quiet, peaceful beaches. Grocery store, markets, pharmacy, bus etc all within very short walk. The hotel itself is super clean and well maintained. It has everything you need for your comfort & the owner/host is incredibly kind and helpful. Note: While our room did have an ocean view, it is not ocean front (1 block away) "

"Great spot "

"Precioso lugar, calmo, muy cuidadoso, rodeado de vegetación y pájaros y mariposas. Las instalaciones están impecables y todo es cómodo: la cama, la ducha, la temperatura. La habitación que alquilamos incluye una cocinita y una pequeña mesa en la que se pueden preparar alimentos. En la parte exterior cuenta con césped, hamacas, bancos de madera para sentarse... Un pequeño oasis. Además la atención brindada por la propietaria es excelente."
