The experience was amazing in general. The vibe around the hostel is unique, especially the conections within the volunteers and with guests, made friendships there that will last. The location in unbelivable, and the surf vibe is very much present. Unfortunatly, due to personal matters, i had to interrupt my volunteer experience. The manager, Paul, was completely understanding of the situation and helpful. All of it made want to return, which ended up happening. As a first experience through worldpackers, could not have asked for better.

My experience at the hostel was truly amazing. Firstly, the hostel and its facilities are very good and the work and tasks are clearly structured and communicated! Paul, the manager, is the best and helpful in every way. Whether it's about the hostel work, island recommendations, or chats between and after work. The other volunteers were the best, there were always good vibes and a good time with everybody. The beach is right in front of the hostel so I had the opportunity to surf everyday. It was my first volunteering experience and definitely not my last. Thanks for everything!

My time at the hostel was absolutely great :) Paul is a great manager, friendly and responsible, treated each volunteer with respect and made sure everyone felt comfortable at the hostel. If you are ready to take responsibility and work reliably by yourself, you won't have any problems with the daily tasks. I had the opportunity to surf a lot and get to know a lot of people. Facility-wise the hostel is really good and provides a lot of cozy space. You need to be ready to share a small bedroom though. But apart from that, 10/10 , would do it again <3

It was my first volunteering experience at the hostel, and I liked it because I made many new friends there and could surf everyday. The hostel is 100 meter infront of the surfing beach, with the shift schedule you have you can surf sometimes even 2 times a day. For the past 3 months I bought a board for under 100 Euro and went surfing everyday. We all got 1 free surf lesson at the beginning and after that, we had to help selling surf lesson to get another free lesson. The work isnt very heavy, but sometimes it could be stressy. The manager Paul is very nice and competent.

The hostel set the bar high for my first volunteer experience. Paul is an excellent manager, attentive to detail, and ensures volunteers feel included. He welcomed our input on improving guest experiences. He also made an effort to connect with us outside of work, whether at goodbye dinners or team outings. The 25-hour weekly schedule was fixed which I appreciated, and you got 1 free beginner surf lesson if you sold one to a guest. Additionally, I enjoyed having a private volunteer room. My 2-month stay was truly memorable, thanks to Paul, the dedicated team, and the wonderful guests I met.

The hostel was my first time volunteering and I can only recommend it. The hostel is well equipped and clean, we had clean rooms with four or two beds. Paul, the manager, was great: he led the team excellently, helped with problems and gave great recommendations about the island. The work was divided up very fairly and we always had the same shifts. The hostel is right on the water, perfect for surfing (learning). I was able to improve my Spanish there. I felt at home in the hostel and wish all future volunteers a great time like I had.

My experience at "the hostel" was exceptional. Located just meters from the beach, it was perfect for surfing daily! The hostel has a cat named Selma, the queen of the place. My tasks included cleaning and reception, with a 5-hour daily schedule, five days a week, allowing time to explore the island. The accommodation was comfortable, and while meals were not provided, cooking facilities were available. Interaction with the host and other volunteers was excellent, with great support from Paul, the manager. Highly recommended for its location, infrastructure, and welcoming atmosphere.

The hostel is so close to the beach, the vibe is chill and welcoming. It's a small hostel, which makes it easier to get to know the guests, in particular because you're free to organize any social event you like. Recommended :)

The hostel is right beside the beach with any facilities you would need close by. It was my first experience working in a hostel and it has definitely set the bar high for future experiences. It's a great place if you want to surf or if you're a beginner like me and want to learn! The staff and volunteers were all so lovely and I've made some great friends during my stay. I highly recommend this hostel to other people interested in volunteering.
