Our Story
Rick’s Place is named after Rick Walker, a California surfer who founded Corky Carroll’s Surf School in Huntington Beach in 1996. In 1999, he opened Costa Rica’s first surf school and all-inclusive resort right here on this property—where countless travelers have learned to surf and where Rick helped build a thriving surf community.
Today Rick shares this slice of paradise through short – and long – term rentals. If you need anything during your stay, just reach out to Patrick. He’s always available with good vibes and a smile. Patrick has worked with Rick since 2002, starting as a surf instructor and is now your go-to guy. Whatever you need, Patrick will help make it happen.
See you soon!
