EXCELLENT Based on 38 reviews Julia24/04/2025 Mokum Surf Club offers an out of this world experience in Pavones, Costa Rica. A place that looks like a dream to me. The retreat, offered by Marthe and Jonne, is so well organised and offers the right amount of activities. The retreat consists of surfing, yoga, a boat ride, a horse ride and everyday a lot of fresh made food. The beautiful house you'll sleep in has a spectacular view of the jungle and sea, and if you're lucky you'll see some monkeys from your balcony! But it wouldn't be a five star review if it wasn't for the people that make this retreat possible. Marthe and Jonne are such a lovely, energetic, enthusiastic couple and they work together with a group of wonderful local people. Together they make sure you don't have to worry about anything, they check in on you to make sure you are okay and they are enjoying it as much as you do. I think it's clear, but just to be sure: I definitely recommend! Kenneth Flaherty15/04/2025 There are not enough adjectives to describe how wonderful the atmosphere that Jonne and Marthe create and the warmth of all the locals that work with them. Everything was taken care of from amazing meals , great waves and the boat ride to Matapolo was incredible. Mokum is the perfect balance of surfing nature and relaxation nothing is forced or rushed with them Mokum is truly top notch from start to finish , Jonne and Marthe somehow make every day and every new adventure seamless their positive energy and contagious laughter make it all the more enjoyable. If you are second guessing yourself about booking with them, just do it I promise you’ll thank me later…!!! Josefien Kleijweg14/04/2025 Jonne and Marthe from Mokum Surf Club gave me an experience I’ll never forget. This year, I had the chance to join their retreat in stunning Costa Rica — a full week of surfing, horseback riding, yoga, chasing sunsets, and soaking up the beauty of nature. But more than anything, just being there. No stress, no to-do lists — everything was taken care of, down to the smallest detail. What truly made it special was the amazing energy Jonne and Marthe brought, together with the kind, genuine locals they work with. Their connection with the place and the people made the whole week feel authentic, warm, and one-of-a-kind. It wasn’t just a retreat — it was something magical. Ruben Labree11/04/2024 Superleuke trip gehad in 2020, waar ik nog vaak aan terug moet denken. Jonne en Marthe hebben de perfecte plek gevonden voor een surfkamp. Het landschap, het weer, de dieren, de zee... Het hield maar niet op. Enorme aanrader! Ricky Menheere25/03/2024 Ik ben niet echt van de reviews schrijven, maar door Facebook werd ik herinnerd aan een heerlijke tijd in Costa rica met mokum surf club. Ik kreeg de herinneringen in de vorm van foto’s te zien op mijn tijdlijn en werd toch getriggerd om een review te schrijven als een soort van dankwoord. De prachtige foto’s en meteen het heerlijke gevoel wat mij bekroop van de fijne tijd daar. Met de leuke mensen en de organisatie aldaar. Wat een heerlijke herinnering is mij daar toebedeeld, zoveel kunnen doen, zoveel gedaan! Super! Vincent Simeone04/03/2024 Jonne and Marthe did a great job of making making us feel at home. The food was amazing and each day was jam packed full of adventures and sightseeing. The surfing was great and they accommodated all levels of surfing, me being a beginner and my friend being an advanced. The daily yoga served as a perfect mental and physical reset after a long day of surfing. The horseback riding was my favorite day as we got to experience the jungle terrain of Costa Rica with the locals. Highly recommend if you are looking for a one of a kind local Costa Rican experience! Annette Ohman19/02/2024 Marthe and Jonne have created a truly incredible experience in Pavones, Costa Rica. They are such gems and it seems that they have thought of absolutely everything. This was my first retreat and I couldn’t have enjoyed it more! Our days were perfectly planned with just the right amount of surf, adventure, and time to relax by the pool or practice some much needed yoga. Our surf instructors and the few nights of video analysis were great and really helped a beginner like myself to see what little tweaks needed to be made. Our accommodations were beautiful, clean, and well maintained during our stay. Laundry service was available as well. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle made early wake ups a breeze. We even got to see a family of monkeys come through most mornings! Every meal was fresh and flavorful using healthy ingredients prepared by local friends of Marthe and Jonne. My friend and I both had specific dietary restrictions and felt that everyone was very accommodating. The times spent gathering around the table were some of the best moments we shared. Lots of laughs and great meals amongst new friends. You can tell the bonds that Marthe and Jonne share with everyone we came across are very special and it was a honor to be a part of such a magical experience. Pavones is a beautiful piece of paradise I’m grateful I got to explore. I can’t recommend Mokum Surf Club enough and can’t wait to return. Thank you so much! Natasha Sarno19/01/2024 My friend and I did a week long retreat with Mokum and it was one of the best trips I have ever taken! I have done a few retreats in the past but this trip exceeded my expectations! It was perfectly balanced between activities and relaxation. The house we stayed in was beautiful and spacious, allowing everyone space to join together and also have quiet/alone time when needed. Our meals were deliciously prepared with love by the hosts and locals- with all fresh and healthy ingredients. They were very accommodating with our dietary restrictions and requests! We felt very safe in this beautiful town. Marthe & Jonne made us all feel like life long friends and are amazing people! The vacation was seamless. It was well organized with activities but also flexible. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to experience a fun filled vacation of surfing, yoga and a local experience of Pavones! We cannot wait to return in the future! valentine ghekiere18/01/2024 I joined the retreat in punta banco - south of Costa Rica- in 2020. The retreat gives you what to expect and even better, don’t miss out, don’t hesitate you will not regret this. Just go for it ! ♥️ Peter Brinkman23/11/2023 Wow! What a great experience with Jonne and Marthe. Where to start? The great people from Pavones, both the surf instructor and other local people we came across. The surfing was great, as a beginner for me it was great to pick up new skills and I believe for more advanced surfers there is much fun too as you can choose for both reef and beach break waves. You can see that Jonne and Marthe really put effort in their work. Both for you as a guest and for the local people that live and work in Pavones. There is a lot of wildlife to find in the area as you would notice when falling asleep and waking up by the sounds of the rainforest. Don't hesitate! Go with Mokum Surf Club!
