HelpDesk: It would help to know more about you, your hoped-for budget, and your likes/dislikes. Since you mention hiking and surf lessons, I assume that you are young-ish? Probably the quiet condos and early-bird dinners that appeal to seniors would not be your cup of guava. I always assume that people posting here have looked at some books and done some Internet searches and are looking for personal recommendations. If that's not the case, I can post info on my favorite guidebooks, too.
