Kissy is a very fair host, you are only expected to teach yoga up to once a day if the guests want to, and in return you receive a room, food, free surfboard rental and discounted surf lessons. You're included in all activities, dinners and parties with the guests, staff and locals. You will have the best time getting to know people here, hanging out and enjoying the local life. We were also very looked after during the typhoon, Kissy made sure we had somewhere safe to stay with everything we needed. I would highly recommend and will be back :)

Kissy is one of the best hosts I've ever met! Everything was absolutely perfect. I loved the way she managed our group's food restrictions (we had two vegans and one celiac person) and still delivered some of the best dishes ever! Having one instructor per person made the learning process so much smoother, and we could improve a lot in such a short time. The yoga sessions were also incredible.And to top it all off, the other activities like waterfall hikes and island hopping were so unforgettable that words can't describe them — you just have to experience it yourself!

I was the yoga teacher for the surf camp - I joined in the low season so there were very few guests around, but there are other surf retreats to join in activities with and the locals are so so lovely. You won't run out of people to chat with or play card games or scrabble with. Proper island life, island time - just go with the flow and you'll have the best time!! Days are decided by when the waves are good!! It's a proper family business and they all invite and include you in everything!! A truly beautiful month!!

I really loved my time at the surf camp. Everybody on the team and beyond was so friendly and accommodating, and Kissy was great at making sure I felt involved especially at the beginning. It is such an amazingly tight knit community of people there and it was so so wonderful to be a belt to be a small part of it for a while. The island itself is absolutely beautiful and I loved every second I got to spend on its stunning beach. I would highly recommend a visit or a stay as a volunteer to anyone!
