"More than just a boutique hotel with a surf program, El Salvador’s Puro Surf excels at both. The hotel, on its own, is an inspired and inspiring place to stay, combining local craft and construction with modernist lines and colors, all accompanied by a laid-back, friendly vibe you don’t need to surf to enjoy. But the Puro Surf Academy is the real deal, priding itself on its ability to take total surf novices “from zero to elite.” It might take a long stay to get yourself into the global rankings, but it’ll be an enjoyable one, accompanied by plenty of fresh seafood at Covana, the open-air seaside restaurant." - Tablet Hotels
