Hotel Domilocos

A simple base for Dominical's surf days

A walk toward the beach, a day chasing waves, a dip in the plunge pool afterward: Hotel Domilocos fits the easy rhythm of a Dominical surf trip. This two-star budget hotel keeps the accommodation straightforward, leaving room in your plans for the coast and the adventures that bring travelers to Costa Ballena.

Playa Dominical is the draw for big-wave surfers. For a different day by the water, beaches farther down the coast bring opportunities for swimming and boogie boarding. Waterfall visits, fishing trips, biking, cave exploration and scuba diving add variety to a stay, so the trip need not revolve around a surfboard.

Back at Domilocos, the restaurant and bar make it possible to spend the evening at the hotel. The plunge pool gives you another reason to pause between outings, and internet service helps with the practical side of a trip.

Choose how much space to settle into

The rooms keep the stay simple. Standard Rooms have air conditioning and hot water, with one double bed or two doubles. Apartments add a kitchen, refrigerator and flat-screen TV alongside air conditioning, with one double and two single beds. Choose the apartment when preparing meals would make the trip easier, or keep the accommodation straightforward in a Standard Room and spend more of the day exploring.
