Boa Onda Guesthouse

All instructors were really nice and the people I met there were open-minded and it was easy to connect with others. Great place to calm down, relax and be active.

The staff being so welcoming

Consolation Beach is a beautiful quiet beach with great sunsets. There is not much to do here apart from relax. Fresh baked goods every morning for breakfast.Something different everyday. All Yoga and surf equipment provided. No, need to take anything. Apart from your clothes and swimmers. Fresh farmers markets at your doorstep every day from local growers.

the nice surfing session in group with useful advices from instructors and friendly atmosphere during all along the Boa

The location was good. You can find nearby the bakery (2mins walk), the supermarkets (5 mins walk) and some restaurants around (10-15mins walk). The place itself was clean and tidy, so it was pleasant to say inside of the camp.

Every morning we had the great and every time different vegetarian breakfast provided by Gaia.

Surfing:

We had 2 surf instructors: Diogo and Gustafo. Both of them were friendly and patient. They were explaining on the beach how we can improve the surfing skills and understand the waves better and helping in the water as well. They have also provided the equipment according to the level. Every morning the were checking the surf spot to find more appropriate (to the surf level) location.

Yoga:

The yoga instructors Gaia and Bianca were giving a great classes each evening. It was very relaxing and they were choosing good flows for stretching the muscles, which was needed after morning surf lessons. They provided all of the equipment for yoga (yoga mat, blocks, belt, blanket).

P.S. hopefully all the names are spelled correctly :D

We had two instructors, Gustavo and Pika. Both were amazing and patient. And I would give both 5 stars! They teach really great how to gain confidence in the water and have fun too.

After surfing we had yoga classes, it was nice to have some good guided stretching.

And we loved the breakfast in the Guesthouse, everyone was very friendly and we made many friends there.

Thank you for this beautiful experience!

Die Organisation ist straff. Es geht pünktlich zu den Surfeinheiten und auch das Yoga und Frühstück finden pünktlich statt. Das Haus liegt gut und nah am Strand. Das Frühstück war lecker und Marie als Yogalehrerin toll sowie Pika als Surflehrer (erklärt sehr gut für absolute Beginner). Stimmung im Haus ist nett.

Nice atmosphere, friendly vibe, homely feeling and beautiful spaces.

Nice combination between yoga and surf.

The breakfast

Marie’s amazing yoga classes

Surf lessons

Everyone was super friendly and welcoming. Location was right next to the beach and we had beautiful Seabreeze through our open windows every night. Short walk to the beach and quick drive to restaurants and surf beaches. Javier (surf instructor) is truly a soul surfer and a patient and kind instructor. We valued him and learned so much from him. Loved yoga classes in the evening. (Yanka)She is such a kind spirit. Breakfast was delicious and nutritious. Loved the community of people we met at BoaOnda!

Marie was lovely. I found the yoga both physically challenging but also very relaxing. She was my favourite part of Boa experience. Surfing was very challenging but the instructors were patient, kind and encouraging.The food was delicious and I enjoyed the variety. There was a nice calm and relaxing atmosphere to the guest house.

Very friendly and good staff. People who are working there are very nice and helpful.

Location very peaceful and right by the sea. The daily breakfast was amazing, so delicious and lots of choice. Surfing instructors were great, really encouraging, professional and fun. The surf skate lesson was awesome too, much easier than normal skate boarding. The teachers were great with our teen son too, loved the daily lesson and then time to chill followed by gentle yoga in the late afternoon was perfect for the body! Lovey relaxed friendly vibes easy to feel at home, I would love to return

I was really scared of surfing, but the entire vibe of guesthouse was so good, welcoming and calming, that I didn't feel nervous at all. Accommodation was clean and nice, breakfest very tasty, yoga very nice. Surfing lessons with Robalo were the best, before going here I was too scared to put my head into water. But thanks to his calm vibe and tje fact that everything was explained step by step I had an amazing experience. Definitely coming back.

Also tried the osteopathy, which was very professional and helpful!

Plus on top I met really nice people here.

Thank you!

Beautiful location, very close to the beach! Very quiet and nice guesthouse with amazing very good breakfast! Very easy going, good vibes in the group. Surf and yoga lessons were great! Perfect to relax!

We loved it - it was so nice to get away. The surf and surf instructors were fantastic, as was the yoga. The area is quiet (10m taxi from Peniche) - but has a lovely restaurant next door, and is close to the beach. The guesthouse was lovely with everyone really friendly. I'd love to come back and would recommend to others!

The surf instructors (Robalo and Pika) were excellent, patient and was able to progress. The yoga instructors were also good (Lisa and Maria) and the sessions complemented each other. Accommodation and food also good quality.

I had the best week I could imagine. The camp is perfectly located nearby the beach. The guesthouse feels like a big shared apartment where you can meet people from all over the world.

The breakfast is divers and super delicious.

What I liked the most were the surf sessions. The instructors were super fun, patient and very helpful. We had an absolute great time in the waves.

I had a wonderful week at the guesthouse. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, all teachers and service people were very friendly and helpful, the courses were great and there was a nice atmosphere.

Only the breakfast could have been a little more choice of bread and spreads.

There were many people who traveled alone, so it was no problem to meet new people from all over the world and e.g. have dinner with them.

Both the yoga classes and the surf classes were a lot of fun and relaxation. Although I have never surfed before, it was really great! The surf coaches were well prepared and good at explaining.

You could always check your yoga and surf lessons the previous evening for the next day (you don't have the same times every day), so you could plan your next day in the evening if you wanted to go on an excursion, for example

I had a great vacation at Boa Onda Guesthouse. The surfing lessons were fun, the yoga was good and the people staying there at the same time were super nice.

I loved the breakfasts.

Amazing People, well prepared instructors (surfing and yoga) with passion, perfect accomodation, delicious food, soul of this place is incredible, owner has a big big heart and passion to this place and for all people there.

Additional advantage is that they can speak in Portuguese, English, Spanish, French!

Amazing 🤩

The other guests and the Boa guesthouse staff and surf coaches

Also breakfast was delicious

Schöner Urlaub, um entspannt zu surfen und Yoga zu machen. Frisches Frühstück, saubere Zimmer und Bad. Gute und sympathische Kurslehrer. Ein toller Ort, um entspannt Urlaub zu machen und neue Leute aus aller Welt kennenzulernen.

The stuff was super helpful and kind, giving solutions to every issue. Good facilities and ‘family’ vibe.

Ana le professeur de Yoga était superbe,et les professeurs de surf n'était pas mal non plus.

I loved every minute of my stay! The location is great for a relaxing stay. The rooms are clean and so many wonderful conversations with everyone in the hostel. The yoga with Ana is a perfect balance after surfing. Surf instruction was amazing for beginners, highly recommend staying here! I definitely plan to visit Boa Onda Guesthouse again

Welcoming hosts Riccardo and Chiara who replied promptly online, friendly and smiling staff, patient and ready to teach and share experience surf instructors Pika, Robalo, Guillermo, Javier and amazing yoga teacher Ana. Wonderful and cozy guesthouse to stay! Book more than 4 days if you can ;)

I came with the intention to surf and relax and the experience was exactly that. Lots of great surfing, with super knowledgable surf instructors (Rapul and Pico) for more experienced surfers. The guesthouse catered well to my food requirements, all the staff are super friendly, helpful and a great vibe. The yoga sessions, run by Ana, were fantastic, and catered to a range of levels. Overall, a great stay 😀

I needed a break from a particularly intense period of work and stumbled across this place. It's low key, relaxed and exactly what I needed. And really cool people who run it who are extremely welcoming and helpful. The combination of yoga and surfing was perfect. Loved everything about it.

Tolle Yoga- und Surflehrer:innen

everything about this experience has been amazing. the people, the surfing clases, de yoga clases, the beaches, my roomates, etc.

before i arrive i had really high expectations. My experience didnt match them, it beat them without a doubt.

thanks for this amazing experience. i will always remember it.

Tous était parfait, les personnes, les différents cours et professeurs.

.

Les cours de surf sont vraiment adaptés pour les débutants et nous amènent à nous dépasser. Les instructeurs sont exceptionnels, Pika et Robaldo ont été formidables du début à la fin! Le site est magnifique et le fait de pouvoir aller à différentes plages rend chaque cours différents. Que du plaisir!

Les cours de yoga sont extrêmement bien pensés pour être complémentaires aux cours de surf. J'ai adoré être poussée à m'améliorer dans le respect des limites de mon corps. Chialait et Anna sont des passionnées de yoga et ça se sent à chaque cours qui est offert! J'ai aussi beaucoup aimé les cours offerts à l'extérieur, avec la vue et la brise de la mer, c'était tout simplement parfait!

Tout le personnel est accueillant, les déjeuners sont excellents et santé!

J'espère avoir l'occasion de retourner vous visiter bientôt!

Merci pour cette semaine inoubliable! 🥰

I had an amazing time at Boa Onda, really feeling like home.

I got the double room for myself and it was nicely decorated and clean.

The surf instructors were amazing, really looking after you and explaining you all the basics and what you can improve. I had a very good experience with surf, also because Peniche was not super crowded like other places I had been before to take surf classes.

Yoga was the perfect complement to stretch and relax before or after the surf classes and I really enjoyed that too.

The neighbourhood is very quiet and relaxing.

I really had a great time with the other guests and the owner.

Would definitely go back!

My first time surfing and the instruction was great. Yoga of a really good standard too, guesthouse is situated in a sleepy town with easy access to shops. All the staff were super friendly and helpful too..

I had a brilliant time at Boa Onda, so much so I added and extra night. The staff were lovely and the the accommodation was clean, comfortable and close to the beach.

Both the surf and Yoga lessons were fantastic. Small groups and very patient, knowledgeable instructors. Thank you Boa Onda :)

Great staff : my flight was late and they went out of there way so I don't miss a surf lesson, surf and yoga teachers are so nice, breakfast made by Simona is delicious, everyting is clean and well organized, you have access to a few kinds of massages and you also meet the nicest persons around.

Great location : 5 minutes from consolaçao beach where we also surf, 2 small markets and resturants. (If you want to go to Peniche you will need a car though).

I had a blast and definitely recommand it and will come back

Tout le personnel est très accueillant. Les profs de surf et yoga sont superbes, très pédagogues, et on est en petit groupe !

La guesthouse est très jolie et très propre, les chambres sont agréables.

Ils proposent divers services location de vélos, massage...

Je recommande à tous les passionnés de surf !

I have really enjoyed my stay. I have tried surfing for the first time and it was amazing! I think 4 lectures are enough for the first time and yoga is a good stretching afterwards. All the instructors were great, also all the people at guesthouse were very nice and welcoming. There is beach nearby and also farmers market with fresh fruits and veggies.

Location is close to the beach, really good surf instructor and great yoga teacher. Totally recommend it

The sessions were structured so you improve (and have fun).

The down time was unstructured and you could do as you please.

Séjour merveilleux merci à toute l'équipe qui est d'une grande bienveillance. On se sent comme à la maison très vite.

Le lieu, la guesthouse tout est très bien, c'est propre, bien organiser.

Je conseille de prendre une voiture si vous voulez plus de liberté.

J'ai voyager seule, ce n'était en aucun cas un problème, vous vous sentirez bien tout de suite. Je recommande ++++

The place, people, vibe, surf, yoga, food.

The surf lessons with both instructors were excellent. They were very friendly yet professional and had high expectations of us. Each day we went to a new location to catch the best waves (appropriate to our level).

The yoga classes were the perfect way to unwind, relax and reflect after a morning of surf.

Beautiful guesthouse filled with amazing people!

The yoga classes were amazing and surfing was lots of fun. Loved that there were lots of places to chill and hang out in the sun.

Yoga class where brilliant content and variety x

First time traveling alone and was met with friendly staff and other guests.

Great experience and can't wait to come back!

Boa Onda Guesthouse has such a relaxing and friendly atmosphere that you can really call it a proper holiday! The surfing was incredible with passionate instructors and the yoga was superrrrr relaxing, Ana you are my idol! Juliya really sorted me out when I lost my phone and was super helpful with booking everything. I had a physiotherapy session which was perfect for my back pain and I feel amazing after only my two night stay! Thankyou! Xxx

The experience was fantastic! The environment is just amazing! Staff are just great, always there if something needed. Chiara, Pedro and Ricardo are great instructors! They are amazing in what they do :D

Boa Onda is a great place to relax, to learn, to socialize. A retreat at Boa Onda can be a life changing experience!

Thank you!

Boa onda is : nice vibes, happiness, a way to grant people and be a a home connect from travelers from the world without barriers ! Surf is also amazing when taught by patient and passionate people ! I feel more connected to others and the world than ever.

Boa onda is more than a guesthouse , it’s like a home. They really help about every subject and try their best. Everyone working there is great and with the other guests we became friends. I went there alone but thanks to everyone there, i returned with friends and so happy. The instructors are attentive and very helpful. I am sure i’ll be back there! Thank you very much for everything.

I cannot recommend this experience enough! I arrived as a solo traveller and left with some awesome new friends, as the guesthouse feels like a cosy family home. The surfing was challenging but amazing and the yoga was different every day. Cudos to the whole team at Boa Onda 👍

C'est rare que je poste des commentaires, mais là, toute l'équipe le mérite, tout était "juste" du début à la fin : l'accueil, la prise en charge, les cours, l'écoute de chacun-e, les échanges et discussions, etc, etc.

Cooooooooooooooool dans le bon sens du terme, c'est-à-dire avec authenticité, bien loin du "business du bonheur", comme on peut en trouver trop souvent, intégriste, avec obligation d'être relax ou autres tisanes bio-dingo.

Et puis la présence de l'océan ! A deux pas de la maison...

Surtout ne le répétez pas sur internet (pour que ça reste authentique !) : une petite perle !

Baci baci bacioni

Seb

Einrichtung der Unterkunft, liebevolles Frühstück, Sportangebot, kompetente und sehr nette Trainer

Surf lessons are taking place in a small group. This is perfect as the instructors are really paying attention to everyone; thus providing individual coaching and feedback. The package of surfing with yoga is a great combination. The yoga lessons were diverse and very enjoyable (to ease muscles into relaxation, making aches and pains from surfing fade away).

Atmosphere in the Guesthouse is very friendly and welcoming for all (extroverts & introverts). If you rent a car, it is a great starting point to explore Portugal and other surf spots.

Cozy house, the breakfast and being only a maximum of five people doing surf or yoga!

Boa Onda is not just any hostel, it's one of the most comfortable and friendliest places in Portugal. They have everything you need there, it is cleaner than any other hostel I've been so far, the kitchen is good, the outside area is awesome, especially the yoga terrace. Surf and yoga lessons were awesome, the beach is one minute walking and was never crowded, sometimes you even had it almost to yourself. Be aware that Consolacao (the village) is basically dead, although there are two or three nice places for dinner and a nice pasteleria, you would need to have a car or rent a bike to go to peniche or baleal - but I liked the calmness, it feels very relaxed and you're far away from busy roads or people. exactly what i needed :)

I loved the house, cosy and homey with places to chill out for time to yourself. Amazing breakfast!

Short 2 minute walk to the beautiful ocean!

Relaxed environment that makes you feel at home. Everybody is very friendly. Had so much fun!

Everthing was super, very friendly stuff, delicious breakfast and they all new lots about the place and all about the surfing! I learnd a lot and this while having fun 🤡

the surf lessons were amazing. Miguel was such an incredible instructor. And the yoga classes were amazing Chiara really push ourselves. was an incredible experience and I'm anxious to come back to boa onda

Very nice and welcoming girls in the office, thank to Kirby who lent us her roof rack we had an amazing surfing afternoon. The surf house is big, it has a spacious kitchen, eating and rest area, nice space in front with hummacks. It is close to the beach but we didn't surf there. The instrutor we've got on the second day, Guillermo, was very attentive and helpful, we learned a lot.

The little town got everything you need. Short walk to the beach,shops,cafe and restaurants. Staff at guesthouse are friendly and helpful. The guesthouse is clean and comfortable.

1 minute from the beach, cozy and clean accommodation.

Wow what can I say, from the moment you arrive the staff make you feel so welcome and relaxed. Once settled in you see the schedule for the next day (surf and yoga) and can start to plan your day. The surf instructors are great. Enthusiastic, passionate but also fun and encouraging for a beginner like me! The yoga teachers also are very good and lovely people. I feel lucky that during my stay about 10 of us were solo travellers so we went for dinner and drinks every day together and became a family. The beach is close, taxis are cheap to explore other areas (beaches, restaurants and bars) but most of all if you want time away in a more rustic style environment to relax, then this is definitely for you. 4 days has felt like a 2 week trip for me. Thanks Riccardo and team I will definitely be back!

We had the most fantastic 4 days in Boa Onda. They were very well organised ensuring we fit in all our activities. Ricardo and staff are fun, caring and efficient. They made sure we had everything we needed. They gave us great information on the area. We enjoyed every moment. It was our fiist time surfing 🏄. Miguel was so enthusiastic and genuinely happy for you when you managed the surfing skills. Highly recommend him as an instructor.

The yoga instructor was very professional, we had daily classes, very clear instructions. she gives a fantastic Thai massage.

We really enjoyed meeting fellow guests from all over the world

Thank you so much guys for this exellent experience!! I really enjoyed my stay!! The guesthouse was marvellous and truly ideal for relaxing and forgetting about the world and I can also highly recommend the surf and yoga lessons! Muchas gracias chic@s por todo y a seguir así!!

We stayed at Boa Onda for six nights and had five surf sessions and five yoga sessions. It was a really great experience from start to finish. The atmosphere in the guesthouse was so relaxed and pleasant and everyone was really friendly and welcoming. The location was really superb, with a beautiful sandy beach just a few hundred metres from the front door and a number of small local restaurants and cafes close by. The surf sessions were pitched at the right level for us (beginners) with really excellent instructors who were patient and really helped us to make progress as the sessions went on. Similarly, the yoga sessions were fantastic. They were a great way to loosen out after surfing and were led by really great yoga instructors. As a complete novice to yoga, I really enjoyed this part of our visit. The healthy breakfasts each day were tasty and there was plenty available. I really don't have a bad word to say about our trip. We really hope that we'll be able to come back for another visit soon.

I loved the ambience of the guest house, very calm, such a place to just chill. Every staff member was lovely, helpful and fun. The bed was good, the breakfast is composed with super fresh ingredients, different everyday, the bathrooms are good.

They had several surf teachers and different beach locations according to the waves everyday. They also had 3 different yoga teachers, but all of them were great and knew how to really make you enjoy your practice.

Thank you for an amazing experience. I had such a good time with you. The classes were brilliant. Surf teachers were so talented, motivating and made you feel comfortable. Yoga was relaxing with really well thought out and structured classes. I met some wonderful people and will definitely come back, thank you again!

We loved the atmosphere and the close proximity to the ocean with ample opportunities for good beginners surfing. The surf instructors were great - especially Lorenzo, Miguel and Riccardo, who taught us tips and tricks to stay on the boards and move around in the water. Cara was also an amazing yoga instructor - even though we were hopeless! Guests were a great mix of nationalities and ages, so getting along was effortless, and the kitchen area in the guesthouse was perfect for making your own dinner when not eating out at one of the amazing local fish restaurants.

We had a great time and might very well come back some other time.

the staff is super welcoming and makes you feel at home

Lovely place with lovely people. I had an amazing stay in Boa Onda. The surf and yoga teachers are very good and very nice. Thanks to all the team. I recommend it and I will come back with great pleasure.

Yacine

Un equipe très dynamique et amiable.

It's a great beautiful small guest house: people are nice and kind, breakfast is excellent, it's right next to a beach. I got a room on my own as I was mostly the only person who came alone. Breakfast and yoga were really good.

Riccardo is the best surf instructor I’ve ever had. The yoga lessons were also good and all guests and staff at the house very friendly. They also offer other activities at the guesthouse, such as thai massage, skateboard rental, etc. In general, it was a great experience, better than expected!

I had an amazing stay at Boa Onda guesthouse and I would totally recommend this place! I’m so glad that I’ve learned how to surf from the best instructors, Ricardo, Flavio and Samuel, who did a great job and helped me during my first steps with their advice. I had so much fun during the lessons! On windy days, I would have skate sessions or ride my bike to town instead of going surfing. The yoga sessions with Joy were so great, the perfect start to the day. The staff (Eva, Julia and Joy) was so kind and helpful and really made me feel like home! Every morning they made delicious breakfast offering different options to choose from. Overall, it was a great experience and I would definitely visit them again!

Family-like environment, lovely welcoming people

Very helpful in making sure you get to surf best waves possible every day

Both the yoga and surf classes where very good and the atmospher was very nice, thanks!

L'ambiance chaleureuse et détendue. toujours arrangeant. proposant d'accompagner jusqu'a la station de bus à Péniche

Me gusto mucho la posibilidad de iniciarme al surf y el yoga complemetaba muy bien.

A huge thank you to Riccardo, Giulio, Erica and Iveta! I really enjoyed my time in Boa Onda Guesthouse. The surf lessons were challenging but funny, the yoga classes relaxing and well adapted to every day's shape, the breakfast delicious! The guesthouse is cosy and clean and everybody made me feel very welcome :) Don't miss out on this experience!

I liked the fact that the guesthouse is not so big, it makes it a cosy place. And that way you get enough attention in the surf and yoga classes.

I was also happy to be able to use a bike from the guesthouse to explore Peniche.

I has lots of fun 'surfing'.

Yoga was great with Susana our lovely instructor.

Great location, stunningly beautiful ideal for relaxing and forgetting about the world.

The staff is really nice and willing to help. You feel comfortable and at home from minute 1.

The stay at Boa Onda was really what is says: good vibes. I spent 3 very happy days. Super friendly people, chilled. The beaches around the guesthouse are just perfect to surf for both beginners and super surfers.

Great food, lovely location. Yoga was really good, just the right balance of challenging and gentle for after surfing. The waves in this area are consistent and great.

Wow! What a great week with everyone at the guesthouse!

Big up Riccardo and Julio, not only did they help me advance my surfing knowledge and skills we also fun doing it!

Chiara's daily yoga sessions were the perfect introduction to Hatha and just what you need after a day on the waves! Valentina's lunches were so delicious I had them daily!

Goda (Godess), Luna and iLiana were the perfect hostesses from chilling out jammin' songs on the guitar to big nights in Baleal.

I felt great after staying at Boa Onda and I hope to return one day! Thank you all!

Good vibes, Much love!

Riccardo, the owner, and his team were wonderful people and so accommodating. a really decent and welcoming set of people. Riccardo is a fantastic surf teacher. i really enjoyed learning to surf.
