Like most of the other reviews I had an amazing time in the hostel. If you someone who likes to socialize and be close to the water I would %1000 recommend this place. I had so much fun and made so many lasting memories! As for the work it is very straightforward and easy. Hopefully I'll come back in the future!!

Volunteering at Gijón the hostel was one of the best experiences I've ever had! From day one, the team made me feel like part of the family. The atmosphere is super friendly, international, and full of positive energy — perfect for anyone who loves the surf lifestyle. As a surf instructor volunteer, I had the chance to teach amazing people from all over the world, improve my Spanish, and spend every day by the ocean. The hostel is well organized, and full of good vibes. The location is unbeatable — just a few minutes' walk from the beach and close to everything in Gijón.

My time at the hostel was amazing! From day one, I felt like part of the family. I learned to surf, practiced my English, rode bikes and skateboards, went partying, did some hiking, and tried so many other fun activities. The hostel has such a great vibe, and the people there are just awesome. I'm leaving with so many friends, happy memories, and experiences I'll never forget. I'd definitely return to the hostel and the hostel! 🌊🏄‍♂️💙
