Surfing behind Casa Lapa
Playa Hermosa is powerful, fast and not a casual swimming beach. For experienced surfers, that same energy is the reason to come—clean walls, punchy sections and a real local lineup just behind Casa Lapa.
Included with every Casa Lapa stay
Casa Lapa guests receive magnetic-card access to the private oceanfront Hermosa Palms Beach Club—an easygoing place to swim, enjoy the shallow beach-style entry and order something from YoYo’s Food & Bar.

More than a place to sleep
Skip the generic itinerary. Tap into years of local knowledge for surf sessions, waterfalls, fishing, wildlife, chef services, transportation and the small places worth knowing.
Explore concierge serviceThe Central Pacific
Playa Hermosa puts powerful surf, black-sand beach and tropical landscape at the center of the trip—with Jacó’s restaurants and services nearby. Hermosa Palms is lush with palms, fruit trees and tropical flowers—heliconias, red and pink gingers, ginger snaps and burgundy ti foliage—alongside grand old almendra trees where scarlet macaws often gather and feed.
