PURA VIDA! @luavillas is only a 5 minute walk to the most tubular beach in the area, Playa Hermosa. We could hear the pounding swell from our swinging hammock on the patio which could only be summed up as an exciting anxiousness. In short, I was STOKED! The waves were huge with 6 - 8 foot faces (2 meters) and a sand bottom for soft landings. The board, provided by our lounging, handled it like a champ and created an emotion in me that is difficult to fit in only one caption. This stoke...is Pura Vida: pure life. #luavillas #wanderlustylexcostarica . . . . .
