PARADE features Lamangata Luxury Surf Resort in “The 7 Biggest Fall Travel Trends of 2025, According to Travel Pros,” highlighting the rise of “Skillcations” — travel experiences that blend leisure with learning.

Parade notes that “Skillcations are on the rise, with 39% of American travelers saying they’re looking to learn new skills while on vacation.” Within this global trend, Lamangata stands out as a destination on Costa Rica’s Osa Peninsula where guests “of all levels take daily surf lessons with local pros, top-notch boards and even drone analysis, all from just six ocean-facing suites.”

The story positions Lamangata among the world’s leading resorts redefining experiential travel — where skill-building meets restoration. With personalized surf instruction, refined wellness offerings, and farm-to-table dining surrounded by rainforest and sea, Lamangata embodies the shift toward travel that inspires, teaches, and transforms.
