How do I even begin to encapsulate what an incredible experience I had at the hostel and in Guéthary! The guests, the other volunteers, and of course, the owner, Ella, make this beautiful place a home. Ella cares so much for everyone and is super considerate of all your needs to ensure you have the most comfortable stay. You have plenty of downtime to surf, hike, and check out the nearby towns. I ended up extending my stay at the hostel because I was having such a wonderful time. So thankful for the amazing friends and memories I made here! Can't wait to be back :)

Travelers should know they will not want to leave! As people keep saying in here and in our guest's book (made by Laura 🧡) the hostel is a home away from home! Ella is simply the best and she always made sure we were okay and that we were enjoying the experience! Communication was great, work and hours more than fair, and Guéthary is such a special place. People are fantastic, and recurring guests like Zoe and Yida, filled the place with delicious food, laughter, and joy! My time in the hostel was the best three months out of six years in a half in France! I will be definetely coming back!! 💖💖

So hard to keep it short... volunteering at the hostel was one of the best decisions I've ever made. My time there was amazing in EVERY aspect. Ella genuinely cares about the well-being of the volunteers, it's evident not only in her attitude, but also through her excellent communication, clear explanations and effective working methods. the hostel is a very well organized environment, which makes the work truly enjoyable🤙As a nature lover, I found best of both worlds here: being close to both the sea and the mountains. There is SO MUCH to do and discover! ⛰️🏖🌇I'll definitely be back soon!!

I cannot speak more highly of the hostel! Ella has gone above and beyond to make it feel like home for us and has always made sure we feel heard, appreciated and comfortable. The work is also a super fair exchange with so much free time and energy to enjoy the coast to its fullest! The hostel has amazing facilities & vibes andGuethary is a beautiful town with great surf & beaches as well as with other places like Biarritz, San Seb & Bordeaux easily accessible by bus/train. I actually ended up extending my stay to 3 months because I love it here so much. the hostel truly is a home away from home ❤️
