There was a small miscommunication with the host at the beginning, which was handled well and the host was flexible and accommodating. Due to other reasons I ended up volunteering for only 1,5 weeks instead of four. The host was very understanding about that. Overall I had a good volunteering experience and the surf hostel is very social with lovely people!!

I had such a great time volunteering at Be Cool! The work was rewarding and fun and I met a lot of amazing people because of it. Both the people I worked with and the travellers I met really made the experience. I learnt a bunch of new skills and got to improve my surfing as well. Can’t recommend a volunteer more. If you’re good with a camera and have some editing skills you’ll doing great!

Ive had a great time at the surf hostel. The hostel is fairly clean. The kitchen is not good though and is not fully equipped either. the is no way of heating food except for a kettle. The staff fridge doesnt work either. The rooms are quite clean and tidy but in general the hostel needs a bit more maintenance. I worked way more than the worldpackers blog described and not for a lot tbh. At one point i made socialmedia, were socialhost and in reception at the same time for only a bed. The host needs to be way better at teaching his crew. It was amazing because of the people for me.

Great experience! I had the opportunity to discover Weligama and everything that possible to do. Lots of parties, the partner school surf is nice. All day some people are at the hostel, so it’s great to have some chat 😊

It was great experience as I got to meet other travellers and mural artists and we created some great murals together. The room that I stayed had no door, only curtains and sometimes host and others made parties right behind the curtain so it wasnt comfortable at times. We had some communication issues with the host as first. Surfing was not free and there were no yoga. So expect to pay for all activities and food when you go there. And not much privacy in the room. Other than that it was fun to do some art and start learning surfing. If you party person you will love it!
